In Thursday issue Of the Aber-
deem News, comment is made on
the possibility of the census of Mo-
bridge not being high enough to
permit the issuing of four saloon
licenses. The article in question
caused a good deal Of discussion
here. 1t certainly is astonishing
how much comment front page
article in a widely read paper, such
as the Aberdeen News is, will
cause. The commissioners have
already granted the four saloon
men now in business permission to
continue on after july the first.
but will not issue the licenses un.
til the county commissioners pass
on the bonds the last of the
month; it is generally conceded
here in Mobr,dge that the census
of two years ago will prevail this
year, but as Mobrldge is part OF
the Legislative body of the State
perhaps it would be wise to invest
igate the matter very throughly as
the Anti-Saloon League never
loses an opportunity to make a
cleaning" and their work is very
thorough. Perhaps, through O
techpicality, if four licenses are
granted, they can step in and close
nt, all four, for a time at least. A
little discretion at this time may
save the city some revenue and en-
barrassment.

Iowa legislature has voted to submit
a constitutional amendment for wo-
man suffrage. This makes four big
states that will present this question
to the voters New Jersey will lead in
September, New York, Massachusetts,
in November and Iowa in the spring of
1916.
In the inevitable march of progress
every state must finally fall into line
for women. Some states will lead,
some will lag, but all must finally join
this great procession of democracy.
Father Malloy is visiting America.
He is fine priest of eminent stand
ing in his country Of New Zealand. In
speaking of equal suffrage conditions
in that country he said "The nuns in
the New Zealand converts vote and
they are surely not considered unfem-
enine and unladylike. They do not
neglect their prayers or their schools
or their charities when they go to the
polls, and on the other hand they
keep in closer touch with the affairs of
the country and reap the benefits of its
government"
Like an irrepressible wave the wo-
man suffrage movement sweeps
through one legislature after another
with irresistible logic and force. New
Hampshire is the latest state to pre-
sent such bill to the legislature This
measure, if passed, would give New
Hampshire women presidential and
municipal suffrage, just as. does Illi-
nois.
Demonstrated by precinct of voters
the women of Chicago exceeded the

THE POTATO CROP
IN GRAVE DANGER
PsWdeIy Scah Disease May Come Unless
Seed Are Carefully Selected.

Atlanta, Ca, March.-Unless they
exercise care as to the source of their
seed potatoes, Georgia farmers are in
danger of losing thousands of dollars
this year on their potato crops as
the result of the powdery scab, the
most destructive disease known to the
Irish potato.
Under no circumstances, declares.
State Entomologist E. Lee Worsham,
should the Georgia farmer plant po-
tato seed this year from the infected
districts Of Maine and New York, be-
cause it has just been found impossi-
BILE to detect the disease in its early
stages, and it may be introduced into
the state through some of the pota-
toes which have been certified to as
good for seed and which are now in
Georgia, or ON their way here.
Especially, states Mr.. Worsham,
should the planter avoid the use for
seed of any potatoes which are label
ed For Table Use Only" as these
are possibly infected and at least
under suspicion.
Mr.. Worsham has just received in
formation from the Federal Horticul-
tural Board in Washington to the ef
feet that it has refused to certify
any further seed potatoes from the
disease infected sections of Maine and
New York, from which large supply
of the seed potatoes used in Georgia
is secured. This action was taken
on account of the discovery just made
that it is practically impossible to de-
tect the powdery scab disease in it's
early stages.

many organizations will send repre-
sentatives to report on the progress
the College and Experiment Station
have made during the past year in
promoting agricultural development
There is probably no time of the
year when a greater variety of work
can be seen in progress at the Agricul-
tural College and Experiment Station.
Crops are sufficiently advanced to
show the differences which have been
brought out by selection, fertiliz1ng,
Lining, ETC. AS a result, the farmer
who has been told, for instance, that
top dressing of grass lands improves
the grass yield, can see for himself
the difference between the land on
which fertilizer has been applied and
that which has been left to make
natural growth. He will also see for
himself the results Of experiments
with wheat, winter oats and other
cereals, and will leave the College at
the end Of the day with a better un-
derstanding OF the work that is being
done for him and for his neighbors.
The men in charge of the various
departments will be constantly in at
tendance and will cooperate with the
County Agents and other guides who
have been selected, to bring the vari-
GUS lines of work to the attention of
visitors. There will be an inspection
of the dairy barns, the poultry plant,
the Experiment Station green houses,
and the hog cholera serum labora-
tories, where the farmer can gain an
idea of what is being done to inn
prove live stock conditions on the
farm, to test various feeds for poultry
and in the investigating of truck and
fruit diseases that we have learned to
control by scientific methods of spray
ing. He will also witness the demon
etration of the use of hog cholera
serum to prevent the spread of that
disease, and it is hoped in many ways
he will become familiar with the var1-
GUS methods which the Agricultural
College uses for bringing information
of value to the attention of the coun-
try people Of the State
The picnic lunch to De served Dy the
College authorities, will afford pleas
ant opportunity for farmers and farm
women from all parts of the State to
mingle in social hour and exchange
Views concerning the work OF the
Agricultural College and the develop
ment of the rural life of their re-
spective neighborhoods. Farmers
Day affords splendid opportunity for
the rural people Of the State to get
together and become more strongly a
unit in the Improvement of agricul-
tural conditions in this State. 1t is
expected that every county IN the
State will send strong represen-
tative delegation to take part in max
ing the day red letter occasion In
the agricultural history of 1915.
