Could one but ind their confessions. one is pretty certain that many of our old parsons had little aptitude for the making of sermons, and the Book of Homilies was found very useful On entering his pulpit one Sunday one parson fl~nbled considerably at the edge of crack in the woodwork, then straightened himself as though mak- ing the best of a bad job.

written Specially for The Bulletin.)
 There lies before me a picture made fn a California fruit orchard, last fall, when the threat of disastrous frost had called out the oil pots and they were in full flame through a big or chard.
 Somewhere else, among other clip pings I have a photograph of an ir- riRatjon operation as it Is actually done in a Colorado orchard. wish I could reproduce them here, for no possible amount of explanation or description can give any one so good an idea of the two things as these il- Iuminative pictures. taken on the spot. But as that is impossible, let me see f I can get the real point of each be- fore such as may not have had the opportunity to see either picture or reality.

To begin with, take the frost fight ing fire-pots. The picture shows them scattered about the orchard as far as the limits disclose at an apparent dis tance of some twenty or twenty five feet apart. I have seen 1t stated that ordinarily" about a hundred pots to the acre are sufficient, though more are demanded in many cases. That would give 435 square feet to each fre-pOt, or a space about twenty by twenty-two feet. These fire-pots are not as expensive as parlor stoves, but they cost quite a little.-by the hun dred quite a good deal. They are made out of sheet-iron, mostly, in several different patterns but all con- trived for the burning of crude oil. Those shown in the picture before me are. comparing them with the human figures pictured near them, about twenty inches long by eight or ten wide and six deep with sliding covers and proper draft-holes. In operation, they apparently give a flame from about half their tops, the other half being checked by the sliding cover. This flame. say eight by ten inches where it issues from the pot, seems to broaden out above to about twice that size and rise to an average height of perhaps a foot and a half.
 You will infer, I fancy, that an oil flame of that size must use up quite a bit of oil

 You win also infer. surmise, that it would take more than one man and a boy to tend, watch, and keep filled d hundred fire-pots blazing their hot test all night.

The Connecticut farmer with a sman orchard of ten acres. who should undertake to initiate the western methods. would require at the outset at least 1900 fire-pots. A thousand might do ''ordinarily''. but he must be prepared for emergencies, also. No, he couldn't make them himself stormy winter days out of waste iron around the farm. He might make a couple, perhaps he might scrape up enough old sheet iron to put together a dozen make shifts. But. when 1t came to 1.2O0, he'd simply shave to buy them
 Then he'd have to get the oil. There aren't any oil wells handy to nla-ly Connecticut orchards. He'd have to import 1t from Texas or California, probably, and the freight alone would be a good deal more than the stuff costs at the wells or anywhere within a hundred miles of them. If he used a gallon to a pot hundred pots to the acre, he'd need about twenty barrels each night he fired up.
 Furthermore, it would take some . hauling to get a thousand clumsy. awkward dirty f1re-pots taken out of storage and distributed about the or chard Take another barn or two to store them in. also. wouldn't it? It would require more hauling to get that twenty barrels of oil out and put in 70
 
 the orchardist wouldn't have a cou- < pie of weeks to do it. An approach ing frost might give six hours notice, not much more Assuming the pots all hauled and placed how many men and teams would it take to distribute twenty barrels of oil to them. a gallon to each, in six hours? And how many men to tend them during the long night and see that the steady flame was kept up?
 They must be able to get help, somehow, out west. But for the life of me. I can't imagine where a Con- necticut farmer would go to find men enough to fire-up for one ten acre or chard,-men safe to trust with match es and crude oil at night in a win " orchard hillside. They say that the cost. out west. varies from 14 cents to $1 a tree" per night for adequate protection. And that's where oil IS cheapest and whole cities stop busi- ness afternoons when a frost Is threat ened. to rush out. en masse, bankers and butchers and grocers and dry goods clerks and school teachers and ministers and lawyers. to help the impertlled farmers.

n will be apparent to any one upon
a moments calm reflection. The
members Of u organization differ as
to church and creed preferences.
There are differences in political
views. especially ON the suffrage .ques-
ton, but they a and do agree upon
the purpose for which the federation
exists.
by eliminating these %controver-
sional. questions, our women have
been able to work together in har-
mony.
A surrender of the organization to
either sectarian OF political forces is.
IN fact, a change of it's purpose. It
would concededly be improper for. the
federation OF declare in favor Of or
against a particular church or creed.
In my opinion it is just as improper
to declare upon a political question.
Some of the members arerrepublicans,
some democrats. Some are suffragists,
some are anti-suffragists. The views
of the members upon either. %sectarian
or political, questions are not essen
tial to membership. and are foreign
to the purposes Of the federation.
Political Business.
The business of government Is
purely a political business. The de-
cision of who shall constitute the
electorate, is purely a political matter
and one upon which both the men
and the women of our country are
divided.
ITO force this issue upon, either
the general of the state federation
IS a breach of their constitutions, and
cannot but result disastrously.
The question of suffrage does not
belong to our clubs, and does not be-
long in our churches os Sunday
schools. 1t vas a mistake to inject
this question at the last convention.
@ Ants Are Strong.
The North Dakota Association Op-
posed to Woman Suffrage, which. num-
ners among its members many prom
inent club women, takes the stand
that this political question should not
be introduced into our State Fedora
ton of .Women's clubs, and we stand
unalterablE opposed to such action.
Mrs. Young Opposed to Suffrage.
The suffrage question is now uD
to the men of the state tie determine.
The Overwhelming majority Of the
women OF the state are willing to
fairs. Our women are adverse 10 mix
ing in political affairs. the reluctant
to vote even on school matters in
which they have the greatest interest,
and on which they have had the ball
lot for 25 years. This is clearly
SHOWN by their vote at the June "a,
1914, primaries.
Tn Grand Forks county $500 men
voted, only 95 women

Total vote of women $40.
That is, as compared with the

100 voted.
I'VE have faith that in Novemb Der
the men will decide the question in
accordance with the wishes Of the
majority of the women of the state"
