Il WORD FOR OLITER.
Hrs. Gait Thinks Assembly-
man Meant No Insult.

Regarding the alleged insult offered Miss
Henrietta Mercy by Assemblyman james
Oliver. Miss Carrie Chapman Gait. head OF
the woman suffrage party, said yesterday
at the Offices of the party, in the Metro
politan Tower, that she didn't think Mr..
Oliver could have intended any discourtesy.
Mr.. Oliver" she said. ''has always voted
for woman suffrage, and always maintained
that he was favorable TO 1t. and / feel sure
he did not intend to insult Miss Mercy.
On the other hand. he must have said
something Ill advised to have given such
offence"
Mrs Gait added. however, that she had
formed her opinion only from newspaper
reports, as she did not get back from AL
bany until late Thursday night, and had
had no time TO investigate the case. She
and Miss Mary Garrett Hay remained after
the main delegation had left. TO interview
legislators. and both say they arc highly
gratified at the results.
81 am more firmly convinced than ever"
said Mrs. Gait, that the slogan of the
woman suffrage party. Woman suffrage
within Aye years. has been we'll chosen,
We expect 10 get the bill out of committee;
though. owing to the Aids case. 1t viii not
be surprising IL it gets no further The
Senate is apSorbeu III the Anus case, as IL
ought 10 be, and this naturally will delay
other business.
There is great improvement" she con-
tinued. "in tn attitude of the Legislators
toward the question. They realize that 1t
has become a matter which must be dealt
with seriously. and some, who are not
suffragists, were willing to vote for the
submission OF the question 20 the people.
This change OF attitude is duo entirely, I
believe, 10 the increase OF a sentiment
favorable to woman suffrage In their con-
stituencies."

marked.
There are three breeds of sheep
on the farm, the majority of which
are registered Shropshires. There
are two fine specimens of Ram
bouillet merinos that were pur-
chased last fall for class room
work from the Michigan Agricul-
tural College. The foundation of
this breed was started by Napo-
leon Bonaparte, who, when in the
zenith of his power sent to Spain
for flock OF merino sheep, which
were placed in the Government
fold at Rambouillet. From this
flock has developed the breed
which is now popular in France,
Germany and America. The
other breed is represented by a
single eve purchased in Vermont,
and is known as the A Type OF
American Merino. While not
weighing more than 100 lbs. she
recently yielded fleece of IS I-2
lbs. of wool.
The herd of swine are unusually
attractive to farmers at this time
when everything in the pork line
is SO high. Three breeds are rep
resented. The largest part of the
herd are Berkshires, and al! OF
the individuals comprising it COLI
tain royal blood. Two brood
sows are half-sisters to the FAM
ous Star Masterpiece that sold al
public auction for $500, and thei,
sire, the celebrated Masterpiece
is perhaps the most noted indi-
vidual the breed has yet produced
He was sold to his present owne:
for $4,000. The other breeds rep.
resented are the Tamworth ant
Yorkshire, which offer a marked
t contrast in type to their bett-,
known cousins, the Berkshires.
Visitors who wish to inspect thu
farm in any of its branches arc
welcome at all times.

CRITICISM

THE Council effected a strong
organization, and good admins
tration is looked for. But after
running out of heavy-weights in
the scientific world they COM
pleted the Board of Health by ap-
pointing a long-haired farmer by
the name Of Johnson, from Pen
cader-not even a citizen of the
town. He sprang from the malar-
ial districts of Cypress Swamp,
and has spent great deal OF his
life under a Doctors care. We
expect to report the condition OF
his property to the Board OF,
Health, and if this does not an
swer-the State Board.
A Warning to him now is, that
for the health OF the town, he have
removed that taurus tscientihc
name for what is Known in Sus-
sex as BulD from the side oi
Strahorh' barn. 1t is causing
nervous prostration and cold feet
to our citizens.
Another thing we Suggest that
he have the water plug removed
from the, middle of pavement in
front of primary school building.
1t may not be unsanitary, but it
will cripple some one. Awkward
ly gated. he tripped over it the
other evening, and ii we were to
publish what we overheard him
say, he would never be placed on
the Board of Health.

Down On The Farm

Perhaps the majority OF our
readers are unfamiliar with the
work that is being carried on at
the College farm, just below the
old depot.
During the past year number
Of improvements have been made
an the buildings, and number of
improved specimens OF live stock
have been added to the farm
equipment.
The orchards are old enough
now to give an idea OF their tu-
ture possibilities. The famous
tree pit experiment is just about
started, and is outlined to deter
mine the function of nitrogen,
-phosphorous and potassium in
growing peach trees, and perhaps,
is the most elaborate experiment
OF its kind ever undertaken in
America. 1t must be seen to be
appreciated. At the present time
there are about 80 acres OF land
devoted to trees. The experiment
peach and apple orchards are OF
commercial size, and contain
about 20 acres. The balance OF
the land set in trees, is devoted to
a variety orchard and small
vineyard.
The efforts of the Agronomis,
at the farm are devoted to 2:
acres of land which is laid out into
400 or 500 plots, on each one Of
which definite, we'll defined

AN ANCIENT CALENDAR.

The pupils of the Kamehameha
Schools have prepared this year cal
endar illustrating notable features of
ancient Hawaiian life. The designs
were made by the girls and printed by
the boys at the print shop of the
Manual School. Both designs and col
oring are modern adaptations of old
Hawaiian arts, and the brown vegetable
dye of the tapamaker of the old time
is suggested by the use of brown ink
on paper of lighter shade.
In this work the pupils show taste,
skill and knowledge of the arts and
customs of the early Hawaiian life and
respect for the best it produced.
At the Hawaiian News, Arleigh $,
Culman' s and Mrs. Rietow s the calen-
dars are on sale at fifty cents each.

School children must undergo an inspec-
ton of their eyes. The final step was
taken by the board OF education yester-
day. when the'report OF Supt. A. T Stuart
regarding the innovation was adopted.
The superintendent outlined the arrange
ments he had made with Health officer
Woodward, In which a plan permitting
the school medical inspectors 10 give in
struction 20 the teachers on the elenen-
tary principles OF ocular examination was
formulated. No greater expense than the
purchase Of testing charts will be en-
tailed.
The plan did not pass the board with
out meeting considerable opposition. how
ever. Henry p Blair declared against 1t
on the ground that the teachers were
already overburdened with work and
would be unable to perform the new
duties competently. His point was over
ruled.
Names of Public Schools.
An interesting report regarding the
names OF school buildings in the District
was submitted. Grover Cleveland is the
only deceased ex-President who has not
had a Washington school named in his
honor. declared Supt. Stuart. There are
twenty-five schools named after their
location in the city. twenty named for
Presidents. nineteen for mayors the only
mayor not honOred being Daniel Rapine
two after mayors OF Georgetown, one for
governor or the District. although none
has yet been named In honor OF Alex
ander r. Shepherd; eleven for ex-Distriet
Commissioners. thirty-four for persons of
national fame, seven for members OF the
board OF education, and fifteen for teach
ers and school officers.
The question of the name OF the new
white normal school is now before the
board, and careful view of the situation
will be taken before a decision is an
nounced.
Not Seriously Injured.
When did the hunting season for
school children open?" asked Mr.. Blair.
when a report OF Principal H. ". Lewis,
of the Garfield School. was read, show
ing that three school children, Annie,
Maize. and Norman Carroll. were shot
or their way to school by a young
