The Woman Who Farms.

Plenty of women fail In farming be-
hastily or with toe little capital or
because they have already worn them
selves out at some other vocation and
have not the strength for the hard
work Of the farm. II a teacher finds
some disadvantages In caring for fifty
restless children she must not expect
cutting seed potatoes to be sheer pleas
ure, says the Saturday Evening Post.
The hen run cannot take the place
of the womah's club, o can the to1
mato field be regarded as a salon. 4
Undoubtedly those who get along
best are the ones who were brought
up on a farm and thus have always
had the right sort of exercise for the
kind of physical development most
valuable 10 them. They have had the
practical work, and they can, If neces-
sary, do all the farming operations.
There are m~altitudes of such women
standing behind the men farmers of
this country. Those who stand alone
On farms Of their own are TO be found
In the east rather than Ia the west.
The reason is not only that land is
cheaper in the east, but that men are
rarer. and in the west many women
who could succeed well ON a farm are
the chance of succeeding wen
Ia marriage.

Income TAX men
FEAR GOV. HUGHES
NEW YORK EXECUTIVE URGES
HIS ASSEMBLY NOT TO VOTE
FOR AMENDMENT.

Washington, Jan. 11.-The advocates
of an income tax law in congress are
much disturbed over the recommends
ton Of Governor Hughes in his mes
sage to the New York legislature that
the constitutional amendment passed
by the senate and house by unanimous
vote at the extraordinary session, be
rejected.
They feel that this recommendation
on the part OF the governor will have
the effect of killing the amendment in a
sufficient number of states to prevent
its ratification by the required three
fourths OF the states. They now re-
gret more than ever that they did not
press the income tax amendment to the
tariff bill when they had command of
the situation, as they did for a short
time, and compel a vote upon it.
They believe 1t would have carried at
that time, and, as drawn by Bailey and
Cummins, would have been declared
constitutional by the supreme court,
They realize that it will be quite i'm
possible for many years to come to
pass such q law IL the amendment fails
Of ratification and they feel that the
opponents Of the measure played a
sharp trick upon them in eliminating
the tax from the tariff bill and passing
9 constitutional amendment, which is
likely TO fail Of ratification.

LIFE
SAVING SERVICE
NEW ENGLAND COAST GUARDS
SEND OUT PAMPHLETS TO
SENATORS AND CON-
GREsSMEN.

Portsmouth. N. H. Jan. 11.-Plans Il
reorganize the life saving service and
increase Its efficiency. are advocated in
a pamphlet which New England coast
guards have sent to senators and COM
gressnen representing states bordering
on the sea and Great Lakes.
The pamphlet states that In the
life saving service there are no in
duoenents offered for recruits, no re-
wards for the veterans and practi-
cally no relief provided for those dis
abIed as the result OF duty
The complaint is also made that
no increase in pay for long and faith
full service is given and that nothing
in the shape Of retirement or pension
exists. These conditions, 1t is pointed
out. force many men of the service and
prevent new men from enlisting SO that
the whole life-saving system is seri-
ously crippled.
