WOMEN TO FIGURE
IN NEXT ELECTION
Woman Suffrage President
Makes Public Quite a
Novel Idea.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 31.-
That the next president of the United
States may be selected by tho women
voters Of the West is the statement
made here today by DR.. William Tin
dali, author and publicist, long time
friend of Susan B. Anthony and presi-
dent of the District of Columbia Equal
Suffrage Association. He figures it
out that in the next electoral college
the states in which women are per-
mitted to vote will cast 81 electoral
votes, while 1t is no uncommon thing
for a president to he elected by a
smaller plurality than this. John
Adams defeated Thomas jefferson by
three votes In 1896: four years later
Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr
tied and the election was thrown into
the House. In 1924 none of the can
didates received enough votes to elect
and the election was made by the
House. Zachary Taylor defeated
Lewis Ca by IS votes in 1S4S;
Hayes defeated Tilden by one vote in
1876 and Grover Cleveland defeated
James G. Blaine by 81 votes in 1884.
DR.. Tindall is of the opinion, in
view of the closeness Of so many con-
tests, that It would not be at all
strange If the coming election should
be determined by the votes of the
woman suffrage states. The states
which now permit women to vote for
president. are California with fifteen
electoral votes. Colorado six. Idaho

Breeding Color In Horses.

Chestnut coat color is recessive to
bay and brown; consequently, chestnut
horses always breed true when mated
together, Notwithstanding their bay
and brown ancestors. Bays and
browns, however. are of two kinds,
one throwing chestnuts, the other not.
Gray is dominant to bay, brown and
chestnut. but English gray thorough
breads nearly all throw bays, browns
or chestnuts; a gray is known in Ger
many which throws nothing but
grays. In certain strains partial
coupling is observed between coat
color and racing power, bay and
brown descendants of st. Simon being
much better racers than the chestnuts.
There is apparently partial TRIPPING
of brown coat color. high racing pow
err and female sex in st. Simon's own
offspring.

Value of Tank Heaters.

A tank heater rightly used Is a
money-saver on the farm, says the
New England Farmer. First, If water
Is taken into the animals body icy
cold 1t must be warmed by heat from
that animals body. Be that animal
COW, horse, hog or sheep, 1t can make
heat only from the food 1t has eaten
or from its own stored-up flesh. Both
those sources Of heat are expensive.
Is 1t not cheaper to warm the water
with f1rewood or with corn cobs or
waste trash about the yards than 1t
is to do SO with high-priced grains or
hay?
Moderately warm water is more
healthful to the animal Ice water
chills the system and retards diges-
ton. The stock will not drink a SUM
Client quantity If 1t Is Icy. The vital
process will not be carried on prop
erly. Farmers who have used tank
heaters for years would no more dc
without them than they would refrain
from supplying water. Tests have
shown that the tank heater Is an eco
ncmical addition to the equipment OF
any farm. 1t can be bought cheaply

OF Large Reservoir.

On the farm of w. H. Farquahr, in
Washington county, Pa, water is sup
piled for laundry, kitchen and bath
room In a cheap and novel manner.
says the Agriculturist About sixty
rods from the farmhouse is the village
church, standing about 100 feet high

conceived the idea of conducting the
rain water from the roof Of the church
into large reservoir which he con-
structed In the field nearby. From there
the water is piped under gravity pres
sure to his house. thus affording a
bountiful supply for the purposes
named. All the church trustees re-
quire is that the conductor pipes on
the church be kept in good repair.
Water from a spring is piped to the
barn for the stock, and at a near

and here is located q milkroom

country. About the time OF the reign
of Queen Elizabeth, forks were intro
duced into England. But they did not
meet with favor at first. 1t is curl
GUS how many useful inventions are
at first bitterly opposed by the public.
In Germany the ordinary people
held that anyone who used fork was

men considered them an insult to
divine providence. They insisted that
God had given man wholesome food
and he ought not be ashamed to touch
1t with his fingers. But forks had
come to stay. We wonder now how
people ever managed to eat without
them.
