CHEVY CHASE PARENT

Mr.. Editor With the men of New York,
Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
West Virginia and Iowa preparing to vote
within year or two on the question Of
comforting the suffrage on the women of
their States, any first-hand testimony as
to how woman suffrage works in States
and countries that have tried it is eagerly
sought. Such country is New Zealand,
where women have voted on the same
terms as men for twenty-five years. The
Rev. James MallOy. Catholic priest. of
New Zealand, who has been visiting in
Philadelphia and listening to the discus
sions of the proposed amendment. thus
comments. according to the Philadelphia
North American:
What is it all about never heard so
much talk about anything in my life. Give
women the vote? Why, it never occurred
to me that women didn't have the vote.
1t is as much their right as their homes
and their children, as their husbands. In
fact. it is part of their lives where live,
and they are part of the country's life.
and they are better and the country is
better for it.
THE homes of New Zealand have not
been menaced by the vote in woman s
hand" the priest declared. "They have
been improved, the children are better
cared for, the schools are in better con-
dition, and the women themselves are in
terested in the real problems of home
making The women have not gone in,
to any great extent. to office holding.
though they serve on municipal councils
and have a voice in the things that chiefly
affect them. They mind their own bust
ness, which is that of all citizens. and look
out for the affairs they think it is their
duty to be interested in. They see that
the women workers are cared for: they
are alive to the interest of the people. and
they have had enough experience in poll
tics not to allow themselves to be fooled. "
The priest thinks that one of the fun
niest things that he has seen for long
time is the vigorous and Intellectual attempt
of the 'antis" to block the wheels of prog
ress in this country. M. L. S.

To Help Upkeep OF Good Roads.

The maintenance of the good roads of
the State got big lift last week when
Motor-vehicle Commissioner Roe announced
that the net revenue from automobile
licences during the fiscal year of 1914 is
$295, 859.27. This fund is devoted to the
upkeep of State highways, and it has
reached such proportions that with the reve-
nue. derived from one cent of the State
tax rate sum is in sight which is almost
sufficient to provide for road maintenance
without additional taxes The estimate
of maintenance is about $3.50 per mile
throughout the State.
The receipts from automobile licenses
and fines for the year ending March 81,
as reported by Commissioner Roe, exceed
all previous records for revenue from auto
mobile licenses, and, in addition, the re-
ceipts show gain of SIS per cent. over
those of last year. This heavy increase,
in view of general bad business conditions,
is regarded by the State officials as most
remarkable.
Included in the net revenues of the past
year are about $4,000 in fines. In 1913
the amount included about 50 ,500in fines.
In making up the net revenues, Commits
sioner Roe first deducted the cost of all
clerical work. the cost of tags, road signs
and posts, cards and all office supplies.
The heavy jump in automobile revenues
is explained, not only by an increase in
local automobile sales during the year, but
also through the fact that many persons
who took chances in previous years and
ran their machines temporarily without
licenses have been ferreted out and forced
to purchase the necessary tags as soon as
their cars were placed upon the road
Another especially pleasing feature of the
increase was the fact that the latter were
especially heavy in January and March
last as compared with the same months
Of the preceding fiscal year. Last January
the net receipts were $50, 486.78, against
SAT, 140.06 for the corresponding month
Of the preceding year. In March last the
receipts were 35.587.37, againt 81, $780,
10 in the corresponding month.
With the 1914 net receipts at $295,859.-
81, the net increase over the receipts of
the preceding year was $l06,20617. The
receipts for the preceding fiscal years
showing the relative increases since the
first year. 1910, were 1910. $4,000 Zap

Selecting Seeds And Plants For
The Garden.

The seeds for the garden should be
secured considerably in advance of the
planting season, says the United States
Department of Agriculture. Secure cata-
log from a reliable scotsman, and after
making plan of the garden select the
varieties and quantity of each needed.
In most sections of the South it is de-
sirable to start plants of certain crops
before the danger of frost passes. The
simplest method of starting a limited num-
Der of plants is by means of shallow box
in south window of the dwelling After
the plants appear, the box should be turned
each day to prevent the plants drawing
toward the light. A more satisfactory
method of starting plants is by means of
hotbeds or cold frames. A hotbed 6 feet
by 6 feet will be large enough for the
average-sized garden and can be construct
ed rather cheaply. In the colder regions
Of the South some form of heat should be
supplied. Fresh manure from the horse
stable will be found satisfactory for this
purpose. Turn the manure two or three
times before placing it in the bed in order
to make it uniform in composition and
mechanical condition. Make the excava-
ton for the bed about Is inches deep and
put in is to IS inches of fresh manure, pack
ing it well by trampling. Arrange frame
over the manure so the slope will be to the
south. Place a or inches of good garden
loan over the manure and cover the frame
with hotbed sash or heavy canvas, pref
erably the former. The manure will heat
quite rapidly for the first few days. Dur
ing that time ventilate the bed frequently
to allow the gases to escape and to lower
the temperature. The seed should not be
planted until the temperature goes down
to 80 or IS degrees F. After the seeds
have been planted, close attention should
be given to the watering and ventilation
of the bed. The soil should never be al
lowed to dry out. but it should never be
water-soaked. Moisture is necessary for
the termination of the seed and for the
growth of the plants. but an excess of
moisture is to be avoided. as it stimulates
the development of diseases. especially
damping-off. Water should be applied
early enough in the day to allow the plants
to dry before night. Ventilate the beds
during the heated portion of the day. but
cover them in time to insure their warm
ing up enough to prevent chilling the plants
during the night,
In the lower South cold frames may be
used instead of hotbeds, and canvas OF
cotton-cloth covers instead of glass.

Bethesda District ParalIeled With
A Profitable Mixer.

Editor Of Sentinel: What our public
schools need is constructive interest. not
the interest that is concerned solely or
chiefly in discovering some violation of
law in the honest effort of the school
board to serve actual educational needs
of the county, wherever the need be.
The need of Bethesda district of high
school facilities is just as great as that,
for instance, of Gaithersburg, five miles
from Rockville. or of Jamestown. five
miles from Gaithersburg. but it has not
been even limited that Gaithersburg high
school students should 60 to Rockville. or
that those of the Jamestown school should
90 to Gaithersburg. How foolish, then. to
talk of Bethesda district high school stu
dents travelling twelve miles to Rockville ?
And who is so dull of comprehension as to
not see the niger in the woodpileH
Probably no sensible farmer having
dairy Of, say dozen or so cows, would
neglect the COW that he found was bring
ing him in nearly quarter of his money
returns. He would want to feed her WE'LL
keep her clean and comfortably bedded,
and try to keep her doing as well as pos
sible.
Understand. the best COW doesn't expect
quarter of the grain and fodder provided
for the entire herd; wouldn't know what
to do with it if she had it. Do you sup
pose that the sensible farmer, because this
good COW was doing so well, would skimp
her feed and expect her to continue to
thrive and prosper her ownerS
Looking at Montgomery county as the
sensible farmer and Bethesda district as
the best COW, what ought the farmer to do
and what has the good COW the right to
expect In this case the COW has been a
patient brute-as most cows are, but has
not been entirely appreciated by the owner
and has been left to Craze most of the
time on a neighbor's educational pasture
where there seemed to be plenty Of room.
But the neighbor has put more stock of his
own on the pasture and the picking is get
ting pretty poor. Besides. the neighbor's
boys have got an idea that there isn't
room for any outsiders. They tried to
drive the COW home a little while ago and
almost succeeded in keeping her entirely
off the pasture. Though the old man says,
Come ahead squeeze in plenty of room
things are pretty crowded and the boys
are apt to throw stones on the sly.
The plain question before the house is,
Ought not the farmer, for his own inter-
ests, to take care of his best COW and pro-
vide her with everything she needs at
home. and not try to put her off on his
neighbor2

Abnormal Spring Weather.

The oldest inhabitant has but vague
idea of whether there ever was March
like the one that befel this section the
present year; the general impression is
that the recent windy experience was
unique. There was almost no precipita-
ton of moisture during the month, while
the wind movement was excessive, and
the temperature recorded considerable
deficiency.
Resulting from these conditions, the soil
was dried and cracked, and fall-sown crops,
as wheat and rye, suffered severely. The
continued cold has held back the planting
Of spring crops. Truck" is still to 90 into
the ground, which means that the early
home grown supplies will not be ready at
the usual time, and will have to be brought
in from the South or else dispensed with
entirely. Wheat has come through the
winter in poor condition, and the outlook
is for an unsatisfactory yield.
OF more immediate and less speculative
interest is the effect that these abnormal
weather conditions have had on human
health. The prevalence of gripp and pneu-
monia has repeatedly been noted. and ii
is observed. too, that both have been
accompanied by an unusual proportion of
fatality this year. In Washington city
and throughout this and adjoining States
the number of deaths from these causes
has been so great as quite to justify the
frequent comment that something like an
epidemic has been going on.
Vegetation suffers for rain. and hui
manity suffers for real seasonable sunshine.
