GET FOOD OIL FROM WEED
Chemist of the University of Kansas Finds Odd Use of Worth
 less Plant.

Lawrence, Kan.-The discovery that oai from the Devils Claws" hither- to worthless weed, can be utilized for food may result in making it valu- able industrial product for the semi-arid regions of Kansas, accord ing to Prof. B. H. S. Bailey, the Uni yersity of Kansas food chemist.
 Laboratory investigations showed that this weed, now growing abun. dantly on the waste sands of western Kansas, Colorado, Texas and New Mexico, produces a seed from which an edible oil is extracted that may take the place of olive or cottonseed oil.
 The press cake from the oil is also valuable for stock food, as it has a high protein value.

 One of the horses legs became in fected and a veterinary wanted to shoot the beast.
 Neigh" said Harris and the horse together.
 So the leg was cut of. Then the village carpenter was called in, and after some experimenting a wooden leg fitted with a thick pad was con. structed, and the first thing the neigh bors knew the old horse was back on the farm job.

Rnaned FrsT,t CRop.

J. H. Hale, public at1tities commis- ,sionac and authority Cn fruits, said last week that a sudden and disastrous change had cOCne over one important phase of fruit culture in Connecticut this season. He said tkat, while the apple blossoms were almost the most profuse ever seeN, the sudden cold had shut down at just the wreng time and had killed off practically the whole crop.
 The fruit did not set. He had ex- amined several orchards and found the loss was from 80 to 90 per cent. if any thing at all persisted.
 The Connecticut apple crop has been growing in importance, and one reason for this has been that the trees are so much surer bearers. But the spring of 1915 has shown that the sureness is not yet a certainty.

Bird, Quarrel Over Lace.

\ number of the Bird Study Club recently observed u heute1 controversy between a robin and a Baltimore oriole over the possession of piece of lace which had been spread out on the grass to bleach. The lace by actual measure ment was several inches over two yards long and was some two or three inches wide. The owner was unable to find it on the spot where it had been laid. but presently heard a decided quarrel among the trees. On the opposite side of the street and upon investigation us to the commotion, discovered the two birds in question sharply disputing the possession of the lace. The family have been ccustomed to throw out strips of cloth, strings and the like for the orioles, and it is supposed that it was this bird which first got away with the long strip of lace, which later attracted the coveteous eyes of the rcbin.-Nor- folk correspondence.

SUFFRAGE-PR0 AND CON
Pro-

Pro.
 The new interest that Connecticut i5 showing in the suffrage amendment to the United States ConStitution is spur ring the suffragists of the state to even greater exertion in regard to state work. Many of the women feel that it would be disgrace to the state if Connecticut women were enfranchised by the action of Congress and of three quarters of the state without any action on ths part of their own legislature; md the prospect of having the amendment passed by Congress before the Connectis cut legislature can again convene makes such a method of enlrunchisement a possibility. There will however al. ways be possibility for ratification of the U. $. amendment; for Connects. cut will have her legislature in session as early as most of the other states ro that the measure will come before thb House and Senate here at the same time that it will come before the legis- latures of the other states. 1t will be the aim of the suffragists also to obtain the passage in the next legislature of the resolution for submitting a state amendment to the voters which was in- troduced by the Connecticut Woman Suffrage Association early in the recent session. If there should be delay in the ratification of the amendment to the U. s. Constitution there may yet be time for Connecticut to carry through this amendment, and so to get ahead of the national action.
 ir Hill is of the opinion that very little, more time will elapse before Congress passes favorably on the suffrage amend ment. In his opinion it will be a matter of good politics for the republi- cans to adopt woman suffrage and to push the amendment Congressman Mann, of Illinois, the leader of the re. pubHcans, who is now openly talked oc as possibility for the republican pres dential nomination, is warm advo- 'ate of woman suffrgae.
