SufYragette Lady Godivas.

Horrors horrors heads accumulate. The
British suffragettes now advised and are
sdering a new plan to attract attention and
shock the public Not content with assaulting
statesmen throwing bombs and setting fire to
buildings. they propose to have Skin parades, y
to march about the streets of Gties absolutely
unclothed. initiating Lady Godiva, who rode
through Coventry wearing nothing but her hair.
We will not be surprised to the suggestion
adopted. In this country, what with tight and
slit skirts. peek -a-boo arrangements and the
low necked gowns, little Is left to the imagina-
ton and the female form divine Ia revealed
much more frankly than that Of the man. In
England however. matters may go to the
limits already urged in public speeches and in
dictated above. Women frantic enough to set
fire to st. Paurs and chain themselves to the
grls in the galleries of the house of commons
to advertise themselves and their so-Called
cause" are likely to do anything. We may
yet read of scandalzed and Mortified police con-
sta bles fleeing through the streets OF British
cities the public scattering wildly and suf-
fragette triumphs until strong armed matrons
with sheets and blankets be summoned to
the rescue. There seems to be no stopping
point OF obedience to law, decency propriety or
natural human instincts OF modesty.--Roanoke

The time has come in this country when some

To Check Hog Cholera.

DR.. James R Mahaffy, OF the Della
ware State Board Of Agriculture, who
was one of the experts who made the
trip AZ a lecturer on the Pennsyl-
yania Railroads Peninsula Special"
in bis address at the different stops
made by the train. gave startling
figures on the rayages of hog ehol-
era.
Hog cholera in 1911 was respon-
sible for the loss Of over $4,000, 900
to the farmers and cattle raisers In
the United States said Dr.. Mahaffy.
He also related that hog cholera was
imported Into this country in 1890
some so odd years ago-when the dis
ease was found TO exist IN the State
of Ohio. He attributed the almost
universal spread OF the disease to the
fact that until very recently no pre-
cautionary measures were taken to
check II. Dr.. Mahaffy advised that
the best way to abate the plague was
to separate the sick hogs from the
healthy ones as soon as the disease is
discovered. To guard against per-
sona1 infection farmers and other hog
raisers are advised to dip their hands
IN creosol before feeding the hogs,
and 10 prevent the disease from
spreading 1t has been suggested that
the sick cattle be kept as far from the
public roads as possible and away
from the railroad rlght-of-Way.

ton on the Temperance Question.

Hon. Isaac Lobe Straus, candidate
for the long term IN the United States
Senate. has injected the temperance
issue into Democratic politics BY his
reply to the Anti-Saloon Leagues
questions.
Mr.. Straus does not come out for
prohibition or against the saloon. In
TACT he expressly says that sentiment
is not ripe for prohibition. But he
declares unequivocally for the simple
fundamental right of the people to
govern and protect themselves on the
liquor question the same as anything
else. He warns the liquor men. how
ever. by saying that IL the right to
vote locally Is denied the people they
will force prohibition forward as an
imminent issue.
To the five questions that we're
also asked of Hons. John Walter
Smith, ]. Fred C. Talbot and Blair
Lee, the present recognized eandi-
dates, Mr.. Straus Is the only one who
has replied to date. His reply, which
Is quite full, Is, In brief:
ID That the people Of the state
should be protected in the enforce
ment of their valid police laws and
that he fayors the kenyon-Sheppard
bill or any similar interstate liquor
shipment bill
" That the people of Maryland
have the right to vote on the liquor
question free from complication with
any other issue whatsoever.
90 That he fayors the passage of
a general law providing for the ex-
ercise of such right.
"a That Legislators who claim to
be In favor of local option should
yield something In matters of detail
to the majority of those who stan
for such legislation in order to get
some bill passed.
(51 That Il is the duty and the
part Of wisdom for the Democratic
party to let the people decide this
question, conveying very clearly the
idea that 1t is foolish as well as
wrong for the Democratic organiza-
ton to expose the party 10 defeat and
disruption n order TO protect the
special interests of the liquor traffic.
With reference to this reply Super
intendent Anderson of the AntI-sa-
loon League says:
Mr.. Straus' letter has changed the
political map over night. II Is the
first time that any big Democrat who
is active In politics has taken an I'M
equiyocal stand on the temperance
issue. Since the liquor interests with
their usual stupidity will oppose Mr.
StrauB because of this declaration the
temperance question Is certain to be
the main issue In Maryland politics
this year, and the candidates who do
not take a similar position will be I'M
derstood to be bidding for the liquor
vote. The only way the Democratic
party can avoid a split Is to get right
on this question and since the Pro-
gressiye party cannot allow n pro-
gressiYe Democrat to beat IL in pro-
gresEiYism. and since the Repnb-
licans cannot afford to be left out IN
the cold. the chances are that the
politicians Of all parties Will try to
save trouble and delay state prohi-
billion by declaring for the passage of
the local option bill.

Seven Little Governors Il the
title OF an epic poem composed by
few young men at the state house
who do not happen to be connected
with the administration OF Governor
Aldrich and are therefore free to in
dulge their literary propensities along
the line chosen.
It is no great shakes Of a poem,
but for concise statement Of the facts
1t could hardly be bettered. This Ii
the way the narrative runs In verse:
Seven little Governors asked T. n.

They sent him letter, and the tale

Seven little Governors, all in politics;
Hadiey left them IN the fnrch--
Then there were six.
Six little Governors, very much alive;

Five little Governors. but fate had In
store
A little bump for 0sborn-then there
we're four.
Four little Governors meath the

Three little Governors, alone Of all
the crew:

then there were two.

Back to Wheat in the Corn Bet.

IN the current issue of farm and
Tfreside appears an article by L. G.
Burnett, a wheat specialist attached
to the Iowa Experiment Station, N
which the author shows how the
great American corn belt must intro
duce more wheat growing IL 1t IL to
preserve Its success. Following Is
an extract:
while the corn belt has raised
more acres and more bushels Of wheat
with each succeeding decade, still It
has not kept pace with its increase IN
population, nor has the importance OF
the crop from the farmers standpoint
been maintained. Each year sees
smaller portion of our flour on the
export markets. Each year sees
greater increase In the corn crop
than 1t sees in the wheat crop, but we
cannot escape the fact that no highly
developed civilization has ever been
built by any but a wheat-fed people.
The Saxon and the AngIo-Saxon have
always demanded wheat as the staple
crop for the staff of life.
The demand of our people for
wheat bread, however. Is only part Of
the argument, for IL we are to main
tain an agriculture that will give our
any kind Of food-atuff for
any considerable time the Wasteful
methods now common to our corn
belt farm practices must be discon-
tinued.
This means rotation of crops.
change that must be inaugu-
rated is an increased attention to the
sanitary condition of the soil. Crops
can give but poor returns where
weeds and insect pests are present
The easiest method TO eradicate both
Of these Is by a systematic change Of
crops. Insects do not thrive except
on land where a one-erop system Is
