It will be planted as soon as. weather conditions are suitable and fall garden of 10 or F vegetables will be raised. These may include to- matoes, string beans, peas. radishes, beets. cabbage, collards. carrots, mustard, turnips. lettuce, onions and spinach.
 Large Garden at Avondale
 The Avondale Land company has given the use of several lots near Mill Village, and Miss Hanby and Miss Palmore, of the Avondale Wesley House are active in promoting gardens on these lots. Miss Pnimore has interested 4S families In making gardens and Miss Hanby has a tomato club of 10 girls and garden club of 10 other girls. The Avondaie land company will have the blowing and fsrttiizing done and all vegetables raised will belong to the families who work the gardens just as if they were in their own yards. Tho tomato club girls will raise fall tomatoes and will either sell them or iisa- them at home The sale of the ripe tomatoes for table use and later. of the green ones for pickles, will be encouraged | in afdef that the children may realize the money value of their gardens.

bee is giving his attention to them. The object of utilizing them is threefold, to make the lots productive and attractive. rather than to let them remain unused and often unsightly to give employment to people who have spare time, especially to boys, and to furnish home-raised veg etables. No expenditure of money is in- voived, so far as any individual is con cerned. The vacant lot gardens are free to those who wish to cultivate them, and the vegetables belong to those who raise them, and may be disposed of in any way they like. Where these gardens are on property owned by the city, the. blowing, narrowing and ferti1izing is done by the city. The Avondale Land company and the Birmingham Realty company have made the same offer and will give the use of any of their vacant lots, plowed and fertilzed, for gardens. In all cases MT.
 Weathersbee's supervision in establish ing and maintaining the gardens on va- cant lots is free to all companies. cor porations and individuals.
 Mir Weathersbee has already begun two of these gardens for the city on its prop erty One is near Behrens park and Is connected with the playground there. and the other is at the juvenile court The

 The offer is a really generous one.

TO BE OR NOT TO BE A FULL
SIZED VOTER Is QUESTION

When a woman is a voter and
when she is not a voter seems to be
the one big question around Chicago
these days. If a little scrap started
recently over the county board puz-
zle is not settled shortly it may lead
to an appeal to the courts to straight
en- out the election machinery once
more.
Former Probate Judge Charles S.
Cutting rendered an opinion that wo-
men could not vote for county COM
missioners but could hold the Office.
Suffrage leaders and others interest
ed in the cause are confident that
County Judge Owens will ignore all
such opinions and rule that women
may vote for county board members.
The women are going to be a big fac
tor in Chicago's politics in the future
and the question should be settled
shortly.

relief SOCIETY
ALREADY AIDING
DISTRESSED ONES

With the rapid approach of winer
with consequent sufferings among the
poor of Americas, that splendid or
ganization of noble women, the Be-
nevolent Aid Society, is already plan
ming in it's modest way to afford relief
to needy ones as far as its slender
means will permit, and asks the co.
operation of the people of Americas in
this most praiseworthy work. The So
ciety has no fund of its own and de-
ponds upon the generosity of the pub
lie in assisting the poor here.
These ladies have gone into darken-
ed homes, where there are sick and
destitute people who need the actual
necessaries of life, both food and cloth
ing. As angels of mercy they hope
to afford relief as far as possible.
Under prevailing circumstances, not
few here may be out of work this
winter, through no fault of their own,
and those dependent upon them must
be cared for when freezing weather is
at hand. Even now there are families
in need of some assistance. The mem
bers of the Benevolent Aid Society
know all of these needy ones and
where best to carry contributions of
food and clothing.
They will be glad, indeed, to receive
any such gifts and will apply them to
best advantage Scores of families
here have articles of clothing no longer
needed old shoes, hats, dresses, I'M
derclothes and articles of apparel
which easily be spared. A postcard or
telephone call to the president of
the Aid Society, Mrs. E. B. Everett, or
to any of her co-workers, Mrs. F. B.
Arthur, Mrs R. L. Maynard, Mrs. R. P
Stackhouse, Mrs. C. ]. Sherlock, or
other members of the society will re-
result in a call at any home in the
city for articles to be given.
Consider seriously this appeal on be-
half of the poor and lend a little aid
along the line suggested. An old coat
dress, shoes-anything that SILVER.
: ing child or woman can wear; any
contribution of food or money will be
distributed where it will be gratefully
appreciated.
