Old Maid Obsolete, Archaic Term,
SAYS Dorothy Dix

We have changed all Of that. The
modern woman does not have to mar
ry for home. She can make as good
a living for herself as a husband is
likely to give her. She doesn't have to
live an unWercome guest in anybody
else's house. She is just as free to have
her own latchkey, and to set up her
own house and her own dining table
as any man is. Nor, after she reaches
the years of discretion, is she supposed
to need any Othe+ chaperOn than her
own good sense and good principles.
Neither does her social position -
pend upon the possession of a husband
She makes that for herself. No man
could reflect any honor on Mi; Jane
Adams, or Miss Anna Shaw. or Miss
Thomas or Miss GilderSleevc, or Miss
Mary Johnson, or Miss Ida Tarbell, or
a thousand other unmarried women
that you could name, and who have
made fame and fortune for themselves.
As for any one ,suppOsing' nowadays
that the reason a woman doesn't mar
ry is because she can't. and has never
had the opportunity to, that theory

one Of the apocryphal stories OF
George Washington on which an
earlier generation was brought up. He

friends table, why we had aped the
feudal institutions of Great Britain to
the extent of having select as well
as popular house in our congress.

PLANT TREES WITH DYNAMITE
Excellent Results Secured at Two New
Jersey Experiment stations--cost
ls Little More.

With peach trees planted at the
Vineland substation Of the New Jer-
sey experiment station, the average
growth of the dynamited trees the
fret season was 794 inches, as com
pared with an average growth of SIS
inches for trees planted in the ordinary
way. In all cases the ground was
thoroughly plowed before planting.
In another test in the same orchard
there was difference ranging from
652 inches, or over fifty-four feet, of
growth to 1897 inches, or over 116 feet
Of growth per tree in favor of dyna-
hitting. Similar results were obtained
with peaches at New Brunswick,
whereas the apple trees showed prac-
tically no difference in the amount OF
growth between the trees planted with
dynamite and those planted in the or
binary way. In all the tests made the
percentage of trees living through the
first season was practically the same
under both methods OF planting.
The cost of planting was about five
cents greater per tree for the dyna-
mited trees. Although no conclusions
are drawn from the first years work.
the opinion is expressed that the use
Of dynamite for planting fruit trees is
worthy Of thorough trial.

SUFFRAGE MEA.. URE..

Passage Of Amendment.
EASY SAILING IS EXPECTED
Supporters Of Votes for Women Are

Des Moines.-That the equal suff-
rage measure will have easy sailing
passing the legislature was indicat-
ed when the senate constitutional
amendment committee recommended
1t for passage by vote Of to 4. Wet
leaders on the committee voted for
favorable action on the resolution,
which is taken to mean that the liq-
uor fight will not endanger the amend
ment giving women the right to vote.
The vote was as follows:
For recomn ending for passage
Thompson, Francis, Savage, Boo,
Jackson, Wilson, Farr and Enger,
chairman
Again recommending for passage
Schrup, Quigley, Doran and Sheean.
Senator Joseph H. Allen of Poca-
hontas, author of the measure. was
greatly elated when informed of the
committees action.
For several days 1t has been Cos
siped about the state house tina the
vets would seek to kill the SURFACE
amendment because OF the acton OF
the drys with reference to certain
liquor measures. All doubt as to
whether the vets would support the
measure was dispelled when several
OF them voted to recommend II for
passage.
The suffragists are confident the
amendment will be adopted by both
branches of the general assembly with
little opposition. They claim to have
secured sufficient number of pledg-
es from the legislators to insure its
passage. A large number OF the
pledges are in writing.
Senator Chase, who vigorously op-
posed the resolution two years ago,
is understood to have informed the
suffragists that he will not renew his
attack at this session. He Is not ex-
pected, however, to favor the amend

of Indebtedness from which no human
efforts will deliver them. The fate Of
unborn millions will now depend, UNI
der God, on the courage and conduct
of this army. Our cruel and unre.
lenting enemy leaves us only the
choice of brave resistance, or the
most abject submission. We have.
therefore, to resolve to conquer or to
die.
Our own. our country's honor, calls
upon us for vigorous and manly ex-
ertion; and II we now shamefully fail,
we shall become infamous to the

goodness Of our cause, and the aid
Of the supreme being. In whose hands
victory Is, to animate and encourage
us to great and noble actions. The
eyes of all our countrymen are now
upon US; and VIZ shall have their bles-
sings and praises, II happily we are
the instruments of saving them from
the tyranny meditated against them.
Let US, therefore, animate and encour-
age each other, and show the whole
world that freeman, contending for
liberty on his own ground, is superior
to any slavish mercenary on earth.
Liberty. property. life and honor
are all at stake. Upon your courage
and conduct rest the hopes OF our
bleeding and insulted country. Our
wives. children and parents expect
safety from US only; and they have
every reason to believe that heaven
will crown with success so Just q
cause. The enemy will endeavor to
intimidate by show and appearance;
but remember they have been repulsed
on various occasions by few brave
Americans. Their cause is bad--their
men are conscious of It; and, II op-
posed with firmness and GOODNESS on
their first onset, with our advantage
Of works, and knowledge of the
ground. the victory Is most assuredly
ours.
