Ex- Governor Packard of MARSHALL
town has left for Seattle, where his
family is al this time and where ne
will be greater part Of The time from
this on, When the State Agricultural
convention is held in the state house in
December Governor Packard will not
be- a candidate for de-election as d.
rector Of the department of agriculture
Just who will be elected 70 his position
is q mater of some debate The loss
of Governor Packard is counted Of con-
siderable loss TO the state. He has a.
wide knowledge of cattle and cattle
men and it has been thru his efforts
largely that the cattle exhibits at the
state fair have for some years been
larger than those at the International
that the directors of the department
may insist on electing Governor Pack
ard president of the board to succeed
Presiden. Cameron. the president beirg
elected from outside the membership Of
the directory board.
In any event, however, a new SUI
perintendent Of the cattle department
will be necessary next year. There is
talk of John Ledgerwood, of Leon,
Iowa, the director from the eighth con-
gressional district. There is talk also
of c. W. Phillips, of the second district.
Mr. Phillips has had wide experience
with cattle. Edward J. Curtain, of the
fouI III district, and Ole A. Oleson, Of
the tenth district, are also mentioned.
AS director from the fifth congression-
al 1icfripf af.sti 1ya al
Arney, Of Marshall county, is being
mentioned.
One of the next steps in rural IL
brary extension will be to make the
law compulsory instead of optional.
Two years ago the legislature proyid-
ed that town.h: ps in which were located
cities with libraries could by voting a
tax or appropriation have the use of
such public libraries The matter is
one that is optional with the township
trustees. The law has worked very
well where it is tried The trouble has
been that one set Of township trustees
have voted the tax and gotten the
people started to using the city library
and the next election has put in a set
u - uS.eSS VIM 1oTSol OF WuiuIIy re-
fused to vote the tax and the country
people were then unceremoniously cut
off from the use of such libraries.

in this city October IL. 13 and IA, at
which time it is expected that there
will be a larger attendance than ever
before. The program is now in course

There are In this country more
than 25,000000 women over the age OF

600 are "breadwinners." Most OF these
women are under 30. and majority
have Just turned 20. Two million OF
this army are domestics or farm Ia
borers-the farm workers being main.
ly in the southland the four remain
ing millions are in the iaundries. the
mills. the stores, the counting rooms
and the various activities of our com
plex commercial and Industrial life.
Included in this enormous total are
nearly 100000 widows, compelled to
support the family; nearly 100000
married women whose husbands have
failed to be providers; nearly 100000
divorced women to whom wedlock
was a brief mirage and plight troth

These are vast figures. They are
