SUFFRAGE WINS

The Grange in IlliNois was no in
considerable factor In the great con.
test recently closed In that state, by
which equal suffrage rights have been
granted to the women OF that state
more than 100000 of whom will be
eligible to register for the fall cleo
tions, or a total equivalent to all the
eligible women in the six other states
that had already been granted the
ballot
The Grange in all the western states
is an ardent champion of equal suf-
frage and is responsible for many of
the victories that have been won.
Especially important in the several
campaigns has been the fact that the
Grange meetings afforded a public
forum for the discussion OF the suff-
rage question, in common with the
many others introduced also therein.
Illinois thus becomes the first state
east Of the Mississippi river to grant
equal suffrage rights to It's women.
capturing the distinction which the
women of Michigan were striving for
and lost, though by a very narrow
margin, the great suffrage vote In
that state being due to the energetic
work of the Michigan State Grange,
led by it's wide-awake lecturer. Miss
Jennie Buell. Of Ann Arbor.

NATIONAL
~ ORANOE
BUSINESS SIDE OF FARMING
Incident Cited Which comss Home
to the Personal Experience OF
Many Farmers.
Conducted by Charles M. Gardner. Editor
of the National Grange. Westfield. Mass.

One of the most significant phases
of the business side of farming Is con
tanned In an incident just cited by
the National Grange Monthly. which
makes the event the occasion for a
most pointed editorial, that will In
terest the farmers everywhere, be-
cause II comes so close home to the
personal experience of not few OF
them. The story Is thus Interestingly
told:
A farmer living several miles from
town in a rural district had several
bushels Of first-class seed rye more
than he needed, so one day he drove
to town and approached seed dealer
and sought to negotiate sale. The
dealer replied that seed rye was a
drug on the market and that he didn't
want to buy, but finally offered 80
cents bushel. The farmer demurred
submitted, pocketed his money and
drove home to his farm. This was In
the forenoon.
After dinner the same day another
farmer found himself short Of seed
rye, 30 droYe to town and called on
the same dealer. He was told that
good seed rye was very scarce, but
that some was available and that the
price would be s1.50 per bushel The
farmer demurred, submitted, paid his
money, drove home with the rye and
sowed 1t. And the force of all this
episode is found in the fact that the
farmer who sold his seed rye at 80
cents n bushel, and the farmer who
bought the same rye back again at
$3.50 a bushel, all in one day, lived
on the same street and less than a
mile and one-half apart!
Here is what actually happened in
single days experience Of two
farmers; and in how many more In
stances the case is duplicated, in gen
eral features, every day in the year,
among the farm people Of the coun.
try, no man recordeth 1t is a condi.
tion, and not theory, confronting, in
one form OF another, the agricultural
industry of this country. That such
a condition must be remedied before
this great industry can have been ap-
proximated its largest efficiency, is
Immediately apparent to all.
Commenting on the above episode.
the editorial in question offers this
suggestion Of remedy. along distinctly
grange lines:
What can the grange do about
it?' is a burning question because the
grange is better equipped to do some
thing about it than is any other force
or factor connected with the agricul-
tural industry What shall be the
form of cooperation, what method of
selling, what plan OF a
farmers exchange, or what other
method, that the grange can originate
or lead, that shall remedy, In whole
or in part, so deplorable a situation
as has been reported above? It's
vital question which must be an.
swered: And the grange is the one
effective agency through which the
remedy may be expected Who shall
point the way? What say the thought
full Patrons Of the country ?"

Why Not q?

PittSburg, March 4.-Dustless
brooms, smokeless powder, painless
dentistry, tuneless ongs, pointless sto-
ries, jokeless comedies, hopeless hopes
and wirelss telegraphy have all come,
made their little hit or gone to come
AGAIN and why, therefore, may not the
"Manless beer saloon?'
1t is the ''Pittsburg idea" de luxe;
conceived by Director Charles S. Hub
bard of the department of public
safety. The new SALOON would be a
place of CLINT and glass, with mani
cures, free lunch. chiropodists, pret.
zels and all other fixtures. There would
also be female bartender or two and
several lady walters, pictures of many
handsome women, gowned in the
height of fashion, perhaps, but at
least gowned. Besides Director Hub
bard would have swinging doors and
conspicuous sign: "Cafe-for La
dies Only-Bar."
Director Hubbard declared that he
was very very serious about it, and
even had some plans or other drawn
