THE RAISING OF FLOWERS,

in which the latest census returns show that
women have done wonders. There is a very
pretty story about the flower bulletin.
Commissioner Porters gifted wife was
greatly troubled by the number of applica-
tions for work which came to her husband
and which he could by no means satisfy.
Wishing TO set before the unemployed of
her sex some occupation to which they
could turn, she prevailed upon Mr.. Porter
to prepare the statistics which show that
many women are already raising flowers
successfully. The new women's hotel in
New York is to have a flower market in it's
inner court, where only flowers raised by
women will be sold. 1t would be very easy
to use in the kitchen only vegetables raised
by women.
Grape culture is. in New Jersey, favor
tie occupation with women, who are usual
ly their own employers and combine capital
and labor in their own persons. The women
of Pennsylvania raise mulberry shrubs and
devote themselves to silkworms, and Kate
Field announces her intention of buying
hereafter only American silks, because the
foreign ones are SO deceptive
Assuredly, the women of America have
not quite yet abandoned farming to the men.
Whether they train roses or pull cabbages
or breed silkworms, they get more than
money out of the grouDd-health and vigor.
1t would be hard to find sturdier lot OF
women than these who work out of doors.

COLONEL L. L. POLK.
President of the National Farm
ers' Alliance.
A Newspaper Man and an Indomitable Work
er-He Believes in the Future Of
the Farmers Alliance.

[For TEE SUNDAY neutrality-suspicious. ]
Colonel L. L. Polk, the president of the
Farmers Alliance, is Southerner. He is
the owner and editor OF the Progressive
Farmer, of Raleigh, North Carolina, which
place is also supposed to be his home. His
duties, however, do not give him much OPP
portunity to write for it, so constant and
pressing are the demands upon his time.
Colonel Polk was born thirty six years ago,
and since early manhood has been aggres-
sive and progressive. How popular he is
in his order may be seen from the fact that
out of the vast numbers OF the members of
the Farmers Alliance he was chosen presi-
dent. He now makes his headquarters at
Washington, d. c., and the amount of bust
ness he disposes of in short time is i'm
mense.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1891-08-30

Colonel Polk believes that the Farmers
Alliance movement will become an organ
lied political party. His latest utterances
on the subject were in Richmond. Va,
where he was attending the meeting of the
State Alliance. He said that the National
Alliance has over 8, 900, 600 members, and is
growing rapidly. 1t is strongest in the
Southern and Northwestern states, and is
increasing at rapid rate in California,
Oregon, Washington and other extreme
western states. President Polk is very
powerful speaker, and is a man who, by his
direct manner, would attract attention any
where. His appearance suggests the pos
session of the quality of indomitable perse-
verence. He is travelling great deal for
campaign purposes. Every day of his time
until the end of October will be employed
in meeting official engagements.

But these women look no more capable Of

In New Jersey the women farm laborers
are quite as numerous proportionally as on
Long Island, but both to the west and the
east The women rapidly diminish as one re-
cedes from the city. Their employment is
mainly confined to the truck farms, where
vegetables are raised for the city markets.
Nor are they anywhere near so plenty about
Boston or Philadelphia. There are many
places in the west however, nearly exclu-
sively peopled by old world nations where
women regularly take hold of farming oper-
atoms. Except in truck farming, for which
they seem to have special aptitude, they
usually get out of it as soon as they absorb

! pity. Women used to rake hay and milk
cows almost universally in this country, as
they do in others, and were probably health

all the time is deadly in the long run.

braggart on Coney Island train the other
day. He was on the seat ahead of me, had

good enough for him, he said. And he
wound up his remarks with this cincher

ed traveller, a trlfie disconnected. He had
probably been to Coney Island many times
before but his eyes had seen only what
they were prepared to see, and a woman
farm laborer within two miles of Brook
lyn's city line was not one of these How
ever, he saw two more before reaching the
ISLAND, with his newly opened eyes.
The other day in court room at Jamaica,
Long Island, a woman was detained as wit

about one of the crimes of which Long Is

sion. There was not the slightest occasion
for surprise. Within mile of the New

hundred women were working in the fields
