Scooping' The Boys On The
FAwpaW.

SIT won't be long now before the
pawpaws are ripe" Last year we
remember certain Central Missouri
editor-Joe Goldman OF Jeff City,
we think it was--said it before we
did. This year we intend to be
first. We don't know whata paw
paw looks like, and, frankly, we
have never made an effort to find
out. But we are strong tor tina,
season OF the year when the pawpaw
ripens. And we like TO hear the
boys 60 over the situation editorially.
because along with the pawpaws so
many other things ripen. Around
general ripening time is the time we
find there's most to write about, and
in doing it we aren't so narrow we
won't throw in a little extra boost

ials.
Many farmers sustain an enormous
loss each year because they fail to
save the corn fodder. The man who
cultivates 40 acres of corn and allows
the fodder tc waste loses, on the ba-
sis Of last years crop, $3.50 annually ,
an amount sufficient to build a 100
ton silo every three years. With our
high priced lands and small margins
in feeding live stock the silo has be-
come a modern necessity on every
we'll regulated farm where live stock
is produced. The dairy man finds
the silo essential to success during
the winter and equally valr able dur.
ing time of short pasture in the sum-
mer drouth. The feeder of beef cat
tie finds that ration of corn silage
and alfalfa hay greatly increase his
profits in making high class beef.
The hog raiser finds silage and
alfalfa valuable for keeping brood
sows in good condition during winter
and adds to their efficiency for pro-
ducing large litters of thrifty young
s,ers. Silage gives the succuleuce
needed for ewes and when fed silape
and alfalfa lambs are stronger and
mature quicker for the market.
The s,lo is a labor saving device
it triples the stock carrying capacity
OF the farm, conserves fertility and
returns to its user annually 100 per
cent on the investment. No better
time than this year when the drouth
is on to build silo. You will need

we'll get ready for the inevitable, for
women are going to vote"
"Only last month"; he continued
"lllinois gave them the ballot ior all

It comes, the constitution will not be
broken and the home will not be de-

1.-The only argument against suf-

weight has been the fear that women
would neglect the home Tor the hust-

less retired and less wholesome. that
race suicide would ensue, and that
the modesty and grace of our women
would give place to seli-assertiveness IS

results should follow, woman suffrage
would be worse than the murrain or

THE ENLARGED
HOMESTEAD LAW
FORMAL LEGAL STATEMENTS
AND SERVICES or ATTOR-
NEYS NOT NECESSARY.

The $50 acre homestead law, or as
it is often called the enlarged home
stead law. has made possible the entry
of many million acres of dry land in
the Western States in tracts double
the size allowed under the original
homestead law. Only land which has
been designated" by the Secretary of
the Interior as "nonirrigable" can be
entered under this act More than
20O,0OO,00O acres have been thus des
ignated. but petitions and sworn
statements requesting further desig
nations are constantly being received.
In an interview just given out
Secretary Lane calls attention to the
fact that there apears to be consid-
cradle misunderstanding among the
western homesteaders as to the pro-
cedure necessary in order that enlarg-,
ed-homestead designations may be
made. The Secretary states that
only the simplest and most direct act
ion by the settlers is required and
that it is wholly necessary for him
to incur the charges now made by
attorneys who draw up formal petitions
that are in fact no more effective than
the homesteader's own letter would
be. On this account a brief state
ment Of the essential facts relative to
the enlarged homestead law is time
~
The first enlarged Homestead act
was approved February 10 1909 and as
later amended provides that in the
states of Arizona, California, Colo
RADIO, Idaho, Montana, Nevada. New
Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon. Utah,
Washington and Wyoming any per-
son who is qualified to make entry
under the homestead laws may enter
as much as 800 acres of public land
which is in a reasonably compact
body and is non mineral, -nonirrigable,
unreserved and unappropriated and
does not contain merchantable tim
Der. Before such entry can be made,
however, the land must be desisnia-
ted by the Secretary of the Interior
as not being, in his opinion, suscept-
ible of successful irrigation at a
reasonable cost from any known
source of water supply.
Land Must be Nonrriaabe.
The work of classifying the lands I
and determining what acres may
be considered nonirrigable has been
assigned by Secretary Lane to the
United States Geological Survey. Al
though, under the present ruling of
the Secretary, large areas may be
designated as nonirrigable without
raising the question whether the land
is in other respects subject to home
stead entry, the work of examining
and classifying these large areas
proceeds rather slowly.

In due time the Logos became Jesus,

Him were gathered the "Israelites in
