Indianapolis Ind. Oct. 13.

Many farmers begin to complain of
the excessive growth of fall wheat,
and are afraid that the wheat will
not stand hard winter as well as it
would if the weather was not so ia
vorable. There is way to overcome
all this by pasturing it down before
cold freezing weather begins.
In the west farmers pasture great

W0MAN'S DEPARTMENT

Mrs. Fenolosa feels that she is deeply indebted for criticism, suggestion and constant encouragement, although in the matter of plot and actual writing she always works entirely alone. Their life together, both in Japan and in this country, was characterized by inde- pendent but absolutely cOngenial work and by harmony of interests and tastes.
 In her latest book, "Red Horse Hill," Sidney Mccall, as she prefers to sign herself, has furnished another Amer ican setting, that of a southern mill town. The conflict of human inter- ests, deep love motive that runs through four related lives among the characters of this story and the power for good or evil held in the hands of the controller of southern mills all bear a vital part in the drama.

AN OLD BOGY LAID.
Newark Hat Trimmers Prove That
 Girls Do Stick.

The following is from the publicity committee of the Women's Trades Un- ion League of Greater New York:
 All organized women should join in congratulations to the hat trimmers of Newark. At the close of the ninth month of their long strike three facto- ries have opened under union condi- tions, and now it is only question of a few weeks when the remaining five will follow their example. It has been a hard struggle. Last January 10000 men and women refused to make hats without the union label. There was suffering among the ranks of this little army. Yet they stood firm. In June the Hatters' association began to weak en. Brooklyn and New York factories opened under fair conditions, then the Danbury and Orange. Only Newark, that stronghold of the Hatters' asso- ciation, refused to use the label, the unions only guarantee of fair condi- tions. Now Newark shows signs of coming around.
 The hat trimmers are also to be con- graduated on the splendid way they have stood together. Out of a mem- bership of 400 only nine have left the union, and three of these backsliders are daughters of bosses. Every in- ducement has been offered to these 400 brave girls. As the long months pass ed and work elsewhere grew scarce the temptation to accept the offer of the manufacturers increased. Yet they held out. Have not the hat trimmers of Newark forever laid the old bogy, Do girls stick"

A GIFTED NOVELIST.
Home and Personality of the Author
 of "Red Horse HiIl."

Sidney Mccall (Mary McNeil Fenoi- lOsa), the author of "Eed Horse Hill" etc., when scarcely more than a girl was living in another part of Japan when the late LafcadiO Hearn began his studies of that country. Independ- ently she, too, was absorbing the mys- tic influences of beauty, and in d diff ferent form, that of verse, was shap- ing her impressions into concrete structure. A modest little volume of poems called Out of the Ncst' is thought by many of her friends to contain some of her finest work. Laf- cadio Hearn, who later became one of her valued friends, was delighted with these poems. In her home in Tokyo, with it's garden where grew pansies, magnOlias and "mOOn flow ers," Mrs. Fenollosa wrote her first novel, "Truth DeXter," a book which had a great success. "The Breath of the Gods" was the outcome of her i'm pressions of the situation in Japan and Russia just before the crisis, but it was written after her return to Amer ica in the ''big, low workroom of her southern home in Alabama, which looks out upon garden where the blossoming cherry mingles it's petals with those of the rose and the jas mine.' Kobinata, or little Sunshine hill, so called after the Japanese home, contains much that is best in beauty both of the east and west. Here also was written Mrs. Fenollosa's latest book, Red se2Hill."
 Mrs. Fenollosa comes of an artistic family. Both her parents were writers. Her father, William Stoddard McNeil. was a poet of ability and a lover and

Noted Woman Labor Leader.

Miss Mary R. Macarthur, secretary of the British Womens Trade Union league, who recently came to this country to attend the convention of the National WOmen's Trade Union league at Chicago, is said to be the most successful woman organizer in the world. She was born in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1880. and for time was engaged in newspaper work. She was assigned to write up a meeting of working girls in the town of Ayr and became so impressed with the stories of conditions she heard that she re- solved to devote her life to the organ- izing of working girls. She went to London and at the age of twenty-three years was elected secretary of the league. She founded and edited the Woman Worker, magazine devoted to the interests of working girls. Miss Macarthur is at the present time the only woman on the national admins trative council of the independent la Dor party of Great Britain and the only woman delegate to the London Trades council, an influential labor organiza- tion.
