Government Faces Problem
Which VIII Shame
Civilization.
CHANGE WAGE A
Million Women in Bondage
Form Chain Gang Of
10Th Century.
By r

,Lecturer, National Farmers Union.D
our ~go.crnment never faced so
tremendous a problem as that now
lying dormant at the doors Of congress
and the leg .s~latures, and which, when
aroused, will shake this nation from
center TO circumference, and make
civilization hide its face i'm shame.
That problem is-WomCn in The field.
The last fcJrral census reports
show we now have l.514,00O women
working in the field, most Of them
south OF the Mason and Dixon line.
There were approximately a million
negro slaves working in the fields
when liberated by the emancipation
proclamation. We have freed u
slaves and our women have taken
their places Ia bondage. We have
broken tho shackles Off the negroes
and welded them upon our daughters.
The thain-tang of Civilization.
A million in bondage In the
southern fields form the chain-gdng
Of civilization-the industrial tragedy
Of the age. There is no overseCr quite
so cruel az that OF unrestrained greed,
no whip that stings like the lash OF
suborned destiny, and no aucionecr's
block quite so revolving as that Of
organized dNdIIte,
The president OF the United States
was recently lauded by the press, and
very properly so, for suggesting med
iation between the engineers and
railroad managers in adjusting their
schedule OF time and pay. The en-
glneers threatened to strike II their
wages were not increased from APP
proNimately ten to eleven dollars per
day aud service reduced from ten to
eight hours and a similar readjust-
ment Of the overtime schedule our
women are working in the field, many
Of them barefooted, for less than so
cents per day, and their schedule is
the rising sun and the evening star,
and after the days work is over they
milk the cows, slop the hogs ana rock
the baby to sleep. Is anyone medt-
ating other their problems, and to
whom shall they threaten TO strike?
Congress has listened approyingly
to those who toll at the forge and be
hind the counter, and many Of our
statesmen have smiled at the threats
and have famed the flame OF unrest
among industrial laborers, But women
are as surely the final victims OF in
dustrial warfare as they are the
burden-bearers in the war between ma
tons, and those who arbitrate and
mediate the differences between cap
ital and labor should not forget that
when the expenses Of any industry
are unnecessarily increased, society
toots the bill by drafting a new con-
signment of women from the home to
the field.

RETURN COTTON LOAN FUND

Be Applied Fortune Limit
Expires February 1.

Washington.-The Federal Reserve
Board, acting as the central committee
of the $135,000,000 cotton loan fund.
decided not to comply with requests
recently received to extend the time
limit for loan applications beyond
February l. Applications mailed on
that day will be the last considered
1t developed that bona fide applica-
tons to the New York committee in
charge of actual administration Of the
fund amount only t3 about $4,000.
This fact is taken here to indicate
that probably not more than a few
millions Of the sum subscribed ever
will be applied for In view Of this
members of the board felt that 1t was
not just to keep all the money of the
subscribing banks tiei up for a period
beyond February 1.
Requests for time limit extensions
were interpreted as based on the de-
sire of cotton producers to have the
fund at hand, but not to make use of
it. Board members hold the opinion
that bankers have shown spirit Of
patriotism In subscribing and that
they should not be expected to keeI
their money idle.

SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try Grandma's
Recipe Of Sage and Sulphur and
Nobody viii Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur properly compound
ed brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get a
large bottle for about so cents. Every
body uses this old, famous recipe, be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does it
so naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

The boy weighed seven and one-haH

series of cries, which gave assur-
ance that his lungs were in excellent

President Wilson made no effort to
conceal his joy when informed that
the child was boy and that Mrs.
Sayre was we'll. His face was wreathed
in smiles for hours afterward. 1t was
his first grandchild and the president
has no boy of his own.
Mr.. Sayre, who is assistant to Presi-
dent Garfield of Williams College, was
not at the White House when his son
was born. DR. Grayson reached him on
the telephone at Williamstown, Mass,
and he came to Washington at once.

NEW MEXICAN PRESIDENT
National Convention Selects General

Mexico City.-Gen. Rogue Gonzales
Cara was name provisional president
of Mexico by the national convention
here. The former provisional presi
dent, Gen. Eulalio Gutierrez, together
with Gems. Blanco, Robes and Jose
Vasconcelos, left Mexico City for Pa
chuco.
Martial law has been declared by
Gen. Cara. The city is being patrolled
by mounted police.
In electing CARA the convention de-
clared itself supreme and until new
president is elected has assumed all
legislative, executive and judicial pow
ers.
Washington.-Col Rogue Gonzales
Cara, elected provisional president OF
Mexico, Is one of Gen. Villas principal
officers. Details OF his election were
lacking, but the general belief was he
had been chosen temporarily to meet
an emergency created by the sudden
departure of Gen. Gutierrez from Mex.
leo City. 1t was thought he would ex-
ercise executive power until com.
plete agreement is secured on presi,
dent to fill the unexpired term Of Pres
idents Diaz and Maderc, which would
end on Dec. 81 of this year.
A copy Of a statement issued by Gar
"a upon taking control Of affairs has
reached the state department. He an
nounced that Gutierrez had issued or
ders for most of the government
forces to leave the capital and that
as this would leave the city without
authorities, he, as chairman Of the
convention, has assumed chief com
mand. 1t is believed Cara then called
an extraordinary session which rati-
fled his assumption of power.
Cara is about SO years old and is a
man of culture. He is graduate of
the law school in Mexico City and has
been practicing law for many years.

FARMERS NEED THE BIRDS
For Purely Selfish Reasons the De-
structlon Of Feathered songsters
Should Be Stopped.

Birds are the chief protectors Of
our trees. Who ever heard of cod
ling moth and San Jose and other
scales when the orchards were full
of birds? Now that these feathered
helpers have been driven out of wood
and field, man is compelled to resort
to all sorts Of vexatious and difficult
struggles against the enemy Of fruit
and tree
The birds are the very best destroy
ers of weeds. Native sparrows, finches,
grosbeaks, redpolls, longspurs, cow
birds, mourning doves and similar
birds feed hungrily upon the fall
weed seeds at time when the crops
have been gathered and they can do
no harm to it.
The best helper a farmer can have
is host of birds. But instead of rec
ognizing these efficient helpers, so
generously provided by nature, We
wantonly STAY them by the hundreds
for fun.-Kendallville News-Sun.
