At more than nine county
fairs held during July in this
state the yellow Votes for
Women badges made suffrage
workers conspicuous.
1t is estimated that 10, 600
voters viewed with interest the
unique suffrage float which &C
companied Ringling Brothers
circus in Fargo.
Suffrage has mounted the
pulpit. At Rolla a joint meet
ing of several churches was
held Sunday when the sermon
was preached by a suffrage
worker. A number of mini
sters over the state have also
signitied their intentions of
delivering suffrage sermons in
the near future.
The National Rip Saw, publ
ished in Missouri, is devoting
several pages every month to a
lively debate on Woman Suf-
frage. Mrs. O'Hare answers
all of Mrs. Rulers objections
in a manner both spirited and
convincing.
On August /, forty-tive suf-
frage leagues had been report
ed at state headquarters at
Fargo as working for the
cause. AT present there are
organizers in every judicial
district forming new leagues
almost daily.
The latest phase in the or
ganization of suffrage leagues
was reported from Dickinson,
when a girls equal suffrage
club was formed recently.
Since then other towns have
followed the example, indicat-
ing the growing enthusiasm
for equal suffrage among the
young folks.
They say woman do not
want suffrage, yet half a mil
lion women in this country are
members of suffrage clubs and
the following organizations
have passed resolutions endors-
ing it: International Council
OF Women, embracing twenty
ty-two counties, the National
association of Women Doctors,
the General Federation of Wo-
mems clubs and the Internal
tiOnal Nurses association.

Harvest is over--threshing
is finished or well along. How
about your yield of grain:
DID you grow more or less per
acre than your neighbor? Was
your neighbor more blessed
than you: Did he plant better
seed. take better care of his
field, or give it more protection
from the hot winds: Did your
field of grain stand up we'll and
give promise of a good yield
until the hot winds of june
and then within twenty-four
hours your grain was gone,
and with it all your hopes? If
you had protected your fields
with windbreaks and shelter
belts would you have lost your
crops: Probably in your own
neighberhood you can find eve
denCe that the trees broke upthe
hot winds and saved the crops.
Experiments have shown that
shelter belts protect fields for
one rod in width for each foot
of height of the trees.
Now is the time for each
landowner to stop and think
whether or not he has done his
duty in planning for the pro-
lection of his future crops.
Next spring when you are
planting your wheat you will
have partially forgotten your
losses this year and again neg
lect your tree planting unless
YOU make your plans now.
Make up your mind where you
need windbreaks. shelterbelts,

planting, make arrangement
