fact, these constitutional questions
were the dominant issues on election
day, including, as they did, such fun

municipal home rule, prohibition,
state income taxes, referendum plans
and some lesser reforms.
The woman suffrage question was
a paramount issue in New York,

Garlic and Milk.

The odor and flavor of garlic is due,
like the odor of rotten eggs, to sui
phur compounds. Garlic is member
of the onion family, grows in pastures.
cultivated fields and even in the woods
Garlic is bad pest on any farm, but
is exceptionally so on dairy farm
because of the strong flavor it gives to
the milk. A temporary expedient is to
keep the cows off the infested pasture
at least four hours before milking. This
will greatly reduce the bad flavor. Then
If the milk stands at least four hours
the flavor may disappear altogether

To-day there are twelve States
where women can vote for President
of the United States. At the last
presidential election there were only
six. This would seem to answer
the question, SIS woman suf-
frage coming or giong?" The size
of the women's vote at the last pres
idential election also answers the
question, Twill women vote when
they get the ballot?" At the time
of the presidential election in 1912,
there were 24,77S,5SS men over FL
years of age in the non-suffrage
States of the Union. OF these, 49,
521,899 voteo, or 54.5 per cent. In
the six suffrage States, California
Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho
and Washington, the only States
where women could vote for Presi-
dent at that time, there were $685.
443 men and women over 21 years
of age. OF these, 1,514,64S voted

euffoonery In aAamIet.r

The buffoonery once tolerated In pro
vincial theaters is illustrated In an an
ecdote set forth in the memoirs Of Bar
ry Sullivan. Wright, who was the first
gravedigger, prepared himself to take
the house by storm by having 1ncased
his person within a dozen or more
waistcoats of all sorts Of shapes and
patterns. When about to commence
the operation of digging the grave for
the fair Ophelia Wright began TO un-
wind by taking of waistcoat after
waistcoat, which caused uproarious
laughter among the audience. But as
fast as he relieved himself Of one
waistcoat Paul Bedford, the second
gravedigger, incased himself IN the
CASTOR vests, which increased the sal
vos of laughter, for as Wright was
getting thinner Paul grew fatter and
fatter. Wright, seeing himself out
done, kept ON the remainder Of the
waistcoats and went on with his part
quite crestfallen.

The Dog Team.

Now the modus operandi of dog
team is as follows: The leader and
wheel dog are the whole works on the
basis of IS to 255. The leader starts
'em. che stops 'em, he picks the trail,
he turns 'em. When he walks, the rest
do; when he gallops, they ga1lop. All
the wheel dog does is to guide the nose
Of the sled, materially assisted by the
driver. The rest Of the team merely
pull and yelp.
From which follows that good lead
er is very desirable thing to have
and poor leader is worse than use
less. The driver, at the handlebars, is
often thirty feet from the leader, the
dogs being driven tandem and con-
trolled by word of mouth and a whip

.NOWA INDIANS-AR
TAUGHT AGRICULTURE
Each Pupil at Indian Agency
Has Eleven Foot Plot to
Cultivate.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, Oct 90
A farm eleven feet suqare may not
seem to be much of farm to the
average Oklahoma agriculturists, but
the Indian children attending the Riv-
erside boarding school, a mile north
OF the Kiowa agency near Anadarko,
are cultivating farms Of this size.
When a child enters school he Us Civ
en- farm eleven feet suaqre, which is
his own during the entire time that
he Is attending school. He can plant
anything that he cares to, but after it
is planted 1t must be cultivated and
harvested and report turned in to
the superintendent Of the school, s.
Toledo Sherry.
Each farm is a miniature experl-
ment station and the work of the In
dian children in the class room is car
ried on by the teachers, using the
farm as an illustration in many Diff
ferent cases. II tho child cares to
plant his entire farm in alfalfa, corn
or some other crop, he is at liberty to
do so. However, variety of crops is
Encouraged. as 1t has often been DEM
Ionstrated in this state that it is not
practical to try to raise one crop ex-
!clusiyely.
A waterworks system has been In
stalled at the Riverside school during
the last summer and from now on tne
Indian children will also be taught
how to irrigate their farms. A main
feed ditch will pass by each farm and
each child will be allowed to use a
certain amount of water as often as
he sees at or as often as will measure
a good yield of certain crop. ac-
cording to the most modern methods
iof irrigation.
One hundred and eight "farms,'
were cultivated by the students en-
rolled at Riverside boarding school
during the 1915 school year. Corn.
cotton, alfalfa, wheat, oats, maize, mil
let, Sudan grass, feterita and all kinds
OF vegetables we're raised to supply
the children and employees at the
school during the entire year.
