MY PHILOSOPHY.
(James Whitcomb Riley.)

It's natchull enugh, l guess
When some gifts more and some gifts less
For them-uns on the slimmist side
To claim it amt a fare divide;
And I've knoWed some to lay and wait,
And ct up soon, and set up late,
To ketch some Teller they could hate
For goin' at a faster gait.
The signs is bad when folks commence
A-fndln' fault with Providence,
And balkin' cause the earth don't shake
At ev'ry prancin' step they take.
No man is CRATE te! he can see
How less than little he would be
Eff stripped to self, and stark and bare
He hung his sign out anywhere.
Ny doctern is to lay aside
C~ontensions, and be satisfied;
Jest do your best, and praise er blame
That follers that count jest the same.
I've allus noticed CRATE success
Is mixed with troubles, more or less,
And it's the mar who does the best
That gifts more kicks than a. the rest.

Local news just now is confined to the renewal of gambling opera tions upon the part of the tin horn fraternity. Their ranks have been recruited by some star artists from thS Upper Country who long to show the Nomites how to play cards and incidently to lose their money. One victim is reported to have lost three hundred dollars which he brought with him from an nearby camp after working hard all winter. The artists are operating in saloons where they receive ample en- couragement as good spenders After getting two or three shots of the local brand of squirred whiskey into their victims they open up the attractions of a card game, and the victim plays his money and they do the rest-which is easy.
 Chas o. Strand intends to engage in the fishing business at Golovin and will put up Alaska herring for the outside market. He is now hav- ing a fishing skiff built by Wagner at the boathouse. He has consider able experience in this line and un- derstands the work of putting up herrings in brine from A to z. He states that he observed when out side that some Alaska herring shipped down to San Francisco and Los Angeles proved a greater at traction to connoisseurs than the Norway imported article. In fact the latter proved unsaleable just as long as the Alaska Herring were for sale. These herring he speaks of were put up by Balto and they liter ally drove the Norway herring which cost $22 a barrel off the market. There is no end of de- mand for herring provided they are put up right and will remain good by one who understands the busi- ness. One of the chief troubles has been that many carelessly put up the article and marketed goods that would not last.

MARYLAND SUFFRAGE NEWS

the feminist movement are more
prone to this notion. It is the idea
that if women were free, untram-
meled by custom or prejudice or re-
strictions of any kind, they would,
as matter of course, abandon their
womanly instincts and nature and
become like men, adopting the
habits, manners, perhaps even the
dress; certainly the ambitions, oc-
cupations and tastes of men.
To the anti-feminist man this
thought is, of course, anathema.
The professed feminist professed to
regard such a transformation as
not only natural, but quite right and
just. He felt that it was not fair
for men to compel women to keep
on being women when it is so much
nicer to be man.
Is it not funny, this notion that
a free creature will not develop its
own nature, but will adopt the ma
ture of another? Women under
stand very we'll that it is because
they are not free, because they are
hanDered and hemmed in on all
sides, that they are tempted to imi-
tate men or pretend to be men, or
perhaps merely adopt mannish
signature in correspondence as our
friend did. When we have achieved
complete freedom as women we will
dare to be ourselves, to follow the
normal instincts and desire the nor
NAL life of women without fear or
shame.
So here ends the debate with
three questions unanswered, but
certainly not unanswerable. We all
hope, I am sure, that Miss Mananti
(let us get it right for once), when
she reaches her new home, will not
forget the Letter Box, but will send
another letter telling just how she
really finds things in Colorado, the
land of free women.

The New Rural Credits Law

The signing of the rural credits law
by President Wilson is a triumph of
Justice, and ends one of the big strug-
giles of the cath Congress.
Altogether there have been 11S rural
credits bills in Congress. They have
included every shade OF opinion from
that which favors government super
vision of farm mortgage system to
that which favors direct government
loans to farmers.
Tne new law, as described by the
President. puts the farmers upon an
equality with all others who have
genuine assets, and makes the great
credit OF the country available TO

Successful farming is purely a de-
yoicpment proposition, so far as time
Is concerned. 1t is a matter OF years
but the tanking business can be
made successful only by turning loans
over and ever. rapidly, many times
Chc farmer and the banker work at
cross purposes. Farmers have been
lsrgely shut out OF the borrowing
privilege.
Lately as farming methods have be
come more scientific the farmers con.
dition has become worse. Within the
past decade. agricultural processes
have been revolutionized. The best
farmer is row trained in an agricul-
nral college Even the small farmer
must practice intensive scientific pro-
cesses. He is learning. among other
things. that there is no such thing as
profitable farming with stock horses
cows. etc.
II takes at least five years TO get
farm started, or to change from ~
elusive grain farming to grain End

get IT established in ordinary Sour
It,. and another five to perfect il
Thc fcrmer needs money o . ell
this and G needs it on long tine.
This is exactly what the new rural
credits bill is intended to give him.
IL will permit the smaLi farmer to
prosper. II will encourage the back
to-the-land movement
II Is the first step In doing away
with the terrible threat Of landlordism
In the United States. II will help the
so per cent of the country's agrlcultur-
lists. who are now renting farmers, TO
