comments for Consideration. From an
artistic viewpoint this film should be

prove that any one woman has suffered

She Is symbolic OF injustice. social and
legal. which women In all states have
endured. and which Il yet possible in
many states. Incidents are not over
drawn; they are based on facts IN law and
history, as casual Investigation viii verify.
From a legal standpoint the wife Is the
victim OF two grave injustiees, possible
under laws governing Property Rights"
and lack OF laws which grant Equal
Guardianship OF children. Court pro-
cedure has been and IL dominated By
Common law which denies a married
woman any legal existence. any legal

while many states amend their property
laws. they lag shamefuily In protecting
the mothers right of custody OF her chill
dren. Only eighteen states and the Dis
trict OF Columbia now give a married
mother equal guardianship with the
father OF their children.

good paving flock of fine fowls.
If one does not feel able to invest
sufficient money for a good pen, then
nominal cost. But don't hatch the
eggs of mongrels for future stock, or
allow these TO run with the purebred
fowls, or your expense and trouble will
be wasted. By the purchase of a pen OF
good birds of several sittings of eggs
from some good strain, you will pave
the way for securing good stock; but
while this is being accomplished the
pufebred stock must be kept separate
from the mongrels.
The use of COW peas as a winter food
eliminates a great deal of work They
are easily raised, and besides furnishing
grain will also supply hay and litter all
from the same growing. If these are
thrown into the scratch she'd the birds
will work over them diligently and
clean up the last yestige, stalk and all.
The grain portion is the first to be
sought out by the birds - they eat it
with vengeance, the stalk serving as a
litter. After the grain portion ia cleaned
up the stalks until there is scarcely any
left.
Then too, COW peas fed with a dry
mash in tile morning, furnish good

What has been said deals almost
wholly with the raising of utility or

sires to enter the business of raising
fancy fowls for chow purposes, it is
necessary to give a great deal more
care and attention to his birds than

game for any farmer, as the profits are
necessarily small, particularly for sew
eral years, and the losses are very
often heavy.
I The greatest returns from poultry on

POULTRY POINTERS.

In buying incubators, do not make
the mistake OF selecting a small capacity
machine. Never buy less than a 100
egg size, and better yet, a 200 one.
They cost but a trile more, and but a
lew cents more TO run them. They are
no more trouble than a small machine.
and one large one is far less trouble
than several small ones.
Many persons feed mustard and
other condiments to their hens in order
to stimulate egg yield. While this NAV
be all right, and may give results, / am
not an advocate OF this kind of feeding
Good wholesome food and exercise will
produce the same effect, and the birds
Will keep their health better.
The largest part of an egg is water.
Water is cheap, but sells at an advanced
( figure when contained in egg shells. 1t
Is impossible for you to put the water in
the shell, for that is the hens Job, but
you also may have a part in it. Your
/ part Is to supply the hens with good,
clear, fresh water continuously. If you
/ will but carry out your part, the hen
will attend to her part of the functions.
There is money in capons Many
persons, however, fail to get it out sim
/ ply because they market them too
early, before they are fully matured,
and not in condition. After caponizing,
keep them growing continually until
they have reached full size, which will
take from ten to twelve months, and
then fatten them. This can be done in
about two weeks, by shutting them in a
small, oark coop, and feeding three
times day all they will eat of corn
meal and middlings, mixed with milk.
If you are without shade in the poul
try yard. why not plant some sunhowei
seed? The plants will grow rapidly
and besides furnishing ample shade fol
the chickens, the seeds NAV be used tC
advantage for feeding during the moult
ing season. Nothing takes the place O
sunhower seed for the birds during thiI
period.
Duck raising has been on the increas
for the past few years, and we'll i
might when it is shown that thel
yield handsome profits. The IudiaI
Runners have established themselves a
great egg machines, for it is a verl
common occurrence to find Indian Run
ners that lay 200 eggs a year. Duel
eggs bring big price in market, partic
ularly in New York.
There is a tendency among man,
persons to raise more chicks than the!
can conveniently house or care for, witt
the result that they do not raise any, o
at least very few This is indeed a BIZ
mistake Hatch only what birds vol
can care for; raise them, and your sue
cess and profits will both be greater.

PRESIDENT WILSON RECKLESS.
Might be lmpeached. More Danger In
Shipping Bill than any ever Proposed.

riikut DC lmpedCneu. VlOfe Danger IN
Shipping Bill than any ever Proposed.
1.-The recklessness of the President has
already pushed US into needless little
war with one individual, President Huer-
ia. Even if impeachment is necessary,
that measure should be applied to pre-
vent his plunging US into the horrible
and needless holocaust of a war with
either OF the two warning combinations
of the Great Powers"
The situation is more serious than at
any time since 1861. The situation in
1898 was no less serious, SO far as war
itself was concerned. 1t was much less
serious SO far as the character of that
war was concerned"
So wrote Ex-Gov. Curtis Guild of Mas
sachusetts in letter welcoming an in.
vltatlon to attend a mass meeting in
Faneull Hall, Boston, to protest against
the Alexander Shipping bill, a bill that
Mr.. Guild pronounces "the most danger
GUS measure ever proposed in Congress. :"
II am amazed" he writes, ''to find
how few people understand the gravity
of the situation. 1t is melancholy that
so little attention is paid by the average
citizen to our foreign relations. Now
that an officer of one of the belligerents
boasts he has actually committed an act
OF war by blowing up railroad bridge
partly owned by an American corpora
ton, possibly it may dawn upon New
England that we are actually on the
brink of the maelstrom.
This is no party questisn. 1t is not,
thank God. being opposed on party lines.
am glad to stand beside Mayor Curley.
The bill proposes, first, to tax further
people already overtaxed, already bear
ing new income tax, plus an emergency
tax caused by stupid fiscal legislation,
not by. the war. We are called upo, to
pay as taxpayers $50, 900, 900 and more to
foreign Nations, to belligerents; for none
but bellgerents have ships in any GUAM
tity to sell. If neutral ships onlv were
intended, the bill would be worthless.
1T proposes, secondly, dangerous
Sociallstlc experiment which no other
Nation has attempted or proposes to at
tempt, absolutely wrecking an honor
able American industry.
Finally, the purchase of the merchant
ships that have changed their flags since
the war began is in effect an act of war
IT the ships purchased are Austrian, Ger
man or Turkish, it is an open defiance of
France, Russia, England and the rest.
1t will &c promptly resented, and these
Nations have plenty of men-of- war to en-
force their rig hts on the high seas. If
the ships purchased should be English,
French, Russian or Belgian, such action
would push us into hostile attitude to
Germany and her allies, and the act
would be, If that were possible, even a
meaner advantage for US to take, for
those Nations are not wholly able to en-
force their rights on the high seas.
1T is significant that the brains of the
DEMOCRATIC party, the Progressive party
the Republican party in the Senate alike
appreciate. this danger and act together. !"
