THE MILITANT suFFRAegr7Es.


The withdrawal Of the suffrage bill
In the House of Commons has pre-
cipitated a suffragetto resolution in
England. The leaders. who hate
worked themselves into a state of
fanaticism over the right to vote and
participate. il the making of laws,
have resolved On a campaign of
breaking mans made laws. They
prefer to go to prison rather than
pay "onc cent Of tribute" for break
Ing the laws their tyrannical hus-
bands and brothers. put OF the statute
books. ~. So
The women h iSSsSbtless have some
valid ground for~'shfair fight for the
ballot. They can Justly say that some
men of less competency than they are
permitted to vote. AMI that they are
paying taxes without an representa-
ton in Parliament They may point
10 some similarity between that con-
tlition and. the condition against
which the American colonies rebelled
when they declared that taxation
without representation is tyranny.
But the wisdom of he course they
are taking to attain what they claim
are their rights, is Very questionable.
why the right to vote should Ae de-
termined by, sex IS not any easy ques-

that the law was developed through
Al natural course Of evolution. The
men have always, been considered the
wage carriers the providers, the wo-
men the home keepers. The man has
had TO face ana soive the great prob

the women to help him ~ making the

suffragets claim, they are on an equal
footing with him, it was only nat
ural for him to feel tina. the laws
that We're good enough for him
should be good enough or them.
The difficulty arises over 81 change
in conditions il modern times by
which women have ceased to he the
ltDme' keepers and have begun to take
their place side by side WITH men in
the industrial world. .'h"y have be-
come toilers in, the shops and fac
tories. They are competing with men
in practically all the walks of life.
Naturally they want to take the final
step and gain equality in the use OF

did want to vote. there would be as
much division among them on public
questions as among men. The effect

PLACE FOR HENS TO SCRATCH
Leaves Make Excellent Material II
Gathered When Perfectly Dry
oat Straw Is Cheap.

There are a number of different ma
terials which furnish an excellent
place for the hens to scratch in. says
a writer in the Poultry Journal.
Leaves are probably the stuff most
used by the small poultrymen These
are good If gathered when perfectly
dry. They must be put into the pens
every few days, because the poultry
will break them into dust by their
continual scratching. find oat straw
about as cheap in the long run, be-
cause 1t lasts quite while and furn-
ishes some feed If fed before thresh-
ing.
Some of my neighbors have tried
feeding buckwheat as a scratching
material and feed combined Buck
wheat is too fattening and should be
used only occasionally. Corn husks
make an excellent scratching material
Shredded or cut corn fodder does very
we'll If there is nothing else on hand.
l do not like any form of meadow
grass or swale for scratching ma
terial because it mats down too much
when cut and not enough when not
cut.

tain the best results it is essential
that the animals purchased for the
dairy should be of the strict dairy
type, and be made a permanent part
of the farm live stock. Those who
purchase COWS with the intention OF
milking them but short time and
then selling them of when the price
of butter-fat drops or when the ami
NAL goes dry naturally look more for
beef producers rather than milk pro
ducers. 1t is impossible to build up
good dairy herd by this method.
Dualpurpose animals may be used
in some localities to good advantage,
but to get the best results one of the
special dairy breeds should be used.
This does not mean that only thor
oughbred animals should be used, but
animals that are bred for milk pro
duction. A good dairy COW should
produce enough butter-fat in her best
days that the value Of the beef may
be of secondary Importance, II not
entirely ignored.
A person purchasing an implement
considers first how much service he
can get out of it and not it's value
as scrap iron when worn out Those
who purchase dairy COW should con-
slider how much butter-fat she will
produce and not the value OF her hide
and carcass.
