DR.. ANNA SHAW MENTIONS
EXCUSES OF THE "ANTIS"

New Haven, CT. March 1S.-Presi-
dent Wilson is baking" on the wo-
man suffrage question and by SO do
ing is merely putting off the milleni-
UNI for Democracy, according to Dr..
Anna Howard Shaw, president of the
National American Woman Suffrage
Association, speaking tonight to COCO
Yale students and Connecticut Suf-
fragettes. Men generally cannot give
reasons for their opposition to the
suffrage question:" said DR.. Shaw.
.They hunt for excuses. When you
come face to face with the members
of our Congress today with President
Wilson and the other big men in the
government they seek excuses, balk
and lay it to the Constitution, their
party platform, or to the fact that men
are men and women are women-the
best argument the anti-suffragettes
have.
ANTS have been going all over the
country to tell men that / ought to
stay mt home" she said. Men say,
your place is in the home. In the
good old days when women were sup
ported we had home industry in every
home and the women had it under their
control. There was no one to protect
it then: there is now. Men have taken
industry out Of the home, have CEN
tralized 1t and have exploited our la

These are circular or angular with
parallel sides, or inverted cone-shape
with broad f1aring sides. The latter is
always lighted from the bottom while
some of the former are lighted from

Kindling wood and oil-soaked burlap
or excelsior are necessary aids in
lighting the coal burners.
Makeshift Heaters.
Under this head may be included the
small piles of wood, brush, oil soaked
sawdust, and other combustible ma
terial. which ere often used with good
success. The object is to produce
heat at the proper time and place no
matter what is used to do it.
Comparison of Oil Heaters and Coal
Heaters.
The oil heaters are quickly filled,
easily lighted, throw off the maximum
heat almost instantly, can have size
of flame regulated by the cover, can
be replenished quickly, and can be ex-
tinguished instantly by replacing the
cover. The coal heaters require con-
siderable time and care to be filled
properly, are slow in starting when
lighted, throw off little heat at first,
cannot well be extiEguished except by
dumping and then the fuel will con-
tinue to burn for some time, can be
quickly replenished while burning, and
must be refilIed after each burning.
In section where good grade of
coal is very cheap the coal heaters
may be most desirable even though
more labor is required in operating
them. In other sections the oil heat
ers are to be preferred.
The oil heaters discharge great
quantities of smoke and SCOT which
often almost become a public nuisance
and it is suspected may in some in
stances collect in quantities on the
blossoms to prevent successful pol
lination. This point remains to be
proven but is worth considering.
Number of Heaters Per Acre.
1t is better to have many sources
of heat than few even though the total
amount of heat is the same in both in
stances. The heaters should be
placed from 20 to % feet apart each
way in rows between the trees rather
than near to or under the trees, and
on the windward side of the orchard
they should be about 10 feet apart in
a row perhaps Is or 20 feet away from
the first row of trees and outside of
the orchard This outside row thus
has an extra number of heaters be-
cause 1t must protect the first row of
trees and because the heat from it is
so much scattered by the wind that
fewer heaters could not give the ne
oessary protection. The heaters are
placed in rows to facilitate filling,
lighting and extinguishing them.

makes some little difference in the
danger point of the temperature, but

short piece of hose is desirable for
distributing the oil in the orchard. The
oil is drawn into buckets-lipped or
spouted ones are best-and poured
from these into the heaters.
Kind of Oil.
The kind of oil used whether crude.
fuel, or distillate, will depend upon
which is available in the different sec
tons. The oils with an asphaltum
base are not desirable because there is
too much unburnable residue; those
with a paraffin base are much better
In this respect.
Cost Of Equipment.
The cost of Oil heating equipment
varies greatly and each fruit grower
must work 1t out for himself The
heaters are worth from $4,000 to $500
per acre depending upon the kind used.
At least 800 gallons of oil per acre
must be on hand to begin with, this
will cost from $500 to $4,000. Dis
tributing tanks and storage tanks will
add to the expense according to the
size and kind used. The buckets,
torches, etc, do not add much to the
expense.
The coal heaters cost about $4,000 to
$4,000 per acre and since the coal may
be dumped on the ground there is no
expense for storage. In fact the coal
may be distributed in piles through
out the orchard and the heaters be re-
filed from these without more equip
ment than ordinary baskets and
shovels.
There had better be an oversupply
of equipment than an undersupply be-
cause if one heating is omitted at a
critical time the whole expense goes
for naught that year.
Orchard Heating is Crop Insurance.
1t may seem like a heavy expense
to put In equipment for heating the
orchard, but this expense is really a
premium on insuring the crop. There
are plenty of instances where the In
vestment of a few hundred dollars
and active work at critical times re-
suited In the saving of a crop worth
sevral thousand dollars. Many or
chards would be unproductive without
orchard heating. Over large areas
covering one or more states there is
an average of one peach crop in three
years without orchard heating; with
orchard heating there would be from
two to three crops in three years.
at must be understood that orchard
heating applies not to protecting the
orchard in winter. but to the protec-
ton of the blossoms and very young
fruits from late frosts in the spring.

How Thin People
Can Put On Flesh
A New Discovery.

Thin men and women-that big,
hearty, filling dinner you ate last
night. What became of all the fat
producing nourishment it contained?
You haven't gained in weight one
ounce. That food passed from your
body like unburned coal through an
open CRATE. The material was there,
but your food doesn't work and stick,
and the plain truth is you hardly get
enough nourishment from your meals
to pay for the cost of cookinss, This
Is true of thin folks the world over.
Your nutritive organs, your functions
of assimilation, are sadly out OF gear
and need reconstruction.
Cut out the foolish foods and fun
ny sawdust diets. Omit the flesh
cream rub-ons. Cut out everything
but the meals you are eating now
and eat with every one of those a
single Sargol tablet. In two weeks
note the difference. Five to eight
good solid pounds of healthy, stay
there" fat should be the net result.
Sargol charges your weak, stagnant
blood with millions of fresh new red
blood corpuscles-gives the blood the
carrying power to deliver every ounce
of fat-making material in your food
to every part of your body. Sargol,
too, mixes with your food and pre-
.pares 1t for the blood in easily assim-
Hated form. Thin people gain all the
way from 10 to 25 pounds a month
while taking Sargol, and the new flesh
stays put. Sargol tablets are a sci
entific combination of six of the best
fiesh-producing elements known to
chemistry. They come 40 tablets to
package, are pleasant, harmless and
inexpensive, and Bowditch- Webster
Co. and all other druggists in Au-
gusta and vicinity sell them subject
to an absolute guarantee of weight IN
crease or money back.-Adv.

Washington, D. c.. March 1S.-In
many parts of this country the late
spring frosts make it absolutely ne
cessary for fruit growers to adopt the
practice of orchard heating in order to
obtain annual crops of fruit when the
fruit buds pass through the winter
safely. This is particularly true with
all tree fruits except apples and pears
in the Eastern and Southern States,
and with all tree fruits in the Central
and Westrn States. Enough has been
done in orchard heating throughout
the entire country to prove its eff
ficiency and practicability, but little
has been done on the study of air
currents. heat radiation, influence of
slopes, hills and surrounding country
generally on orchards where heaters
have been used. Following are di-
rections for orchard heating prepared
by a specialist of the Department of
Agriculture.
Types of Oil Burning Orchard Heaters.
There are many types of oil burn
ing orchard heaters of all sizes and
shapes at prices ranging from twenty
to seventy five cents each The early
lard pail" type while the more recent
ones are larger and rectangular in
shape. Each manufacturer claims
certain advantages for his particular
make and the fruit grower may COM
pare these claims by securing catalogs
of the many types row on the market
Advertisements of these appear in the
horticultural periodicals.
The lard pair type is extremely
simple and serviceable, is easily stored
because it nests and requires little
space 1t may be made by the local
tinsmith if desired. A useful size is
seven inches across at the bottom,
nine inches at the top, and twelve
inches high. This will hold three
gallons of oil and burn about one
quart per hour thus burning twelve
hours at one filling. Smaller heaters
have the disadvantage of requiring to
be filled often. This type is fitted
with covers.
The rectangular type is usually di-
vided into storage compartment and
a burning compartment both being
provided with covers. The size of the
flame can be controlled so as to throw
out little or much heat depending
upon the temperature of the air and
the danger of it going lower. This
type is large, rather costly, is very
serviceable and desirable, but requires
considerable storage space.
If empty metal paint kegs are avail
able they will answer the purpose adj
mirably and will give splendid results.
They must be provided WITH covers;
roofing slate does very we'll for this
purpose, but it must be, held in place
by a weight of some kind.
In lighting new oil heaters it is
usually necessary to use burlap or ex-
celsior to act as a wick. After a de-
post forms on the sides of the heater
the wick is no longer necessary.
Usually a few drops of gasoline are
thrown over the oil and the torch APP.
piled at once. A wad of cotton
wrapped with wire and dipped in oil
makes a good torch. There is on the
market a combination gasoline dis.
