1t must be acknowledged that with
less than year and half's use, with
the right of women to vote in the most
important elections disputed until a
few weeks before the last election,
the granting of the school suffrage to
the women of Kentucky who are able
to read and write" has been of dis
tinct advantage, as IL was predicted
by the women 1t would be, to the
school system. In the future, with
their right TO this ballot at last set

be much more widely used by Ken

Alfalfa is of decided value for poul-

if is used in the form OF meal or
chopped fine. One poultryman fed
alfalfa to his capons. They were CIV
on the run of an alfalfa patch and
later fed with chopped alfalfa and
little grain. Still later alfalfa meal
with q little wheat formed the ration
and finally steamed and cut alfalfa nay
was added. The profits are reported 10

sew them hit or miss, and then color
them. This will produce blended eff.

have a border OF good plain CORE
