100000 CATTLE
STARVE TO DEATH
Dry Year Throughout Texas and New
Mexico Has Been Fatal,
Says Rancher.

Special to The World
RINGLING. Okla, Aug. 29-Col.
w ID Davis of Fort Worth. who
owns big ranch a few miles west
of Ringing, believes that this year
fully 100000 cattle have died Of
starvation in Texas and New Mexico.
1T has been an unusually dry year
in the cattle regions Of these two
states" he says, "and / know that in
some sections cattle have died by the
thousands"
Frank Tomlinson, representative Of
Swift d Co. with headquarters at
Fort Worth, believes these figures
are exaggerated. Il have been over
good portion Of the cattle country
of Texas and New Mexico this year. d"
he says, land while there has been
a heavy loss, it undoubtedly has not
reached that high figure. The mar
ket would have shown the effect of
such a heavy loss"
Mrs. s. +, Deem had a letter from
brother at Roswell, n. NJ, few days
ago In which he said that on the
plains country cattle had been dying
by the thousand for lack of grass.
Rainfall having been light during
the latter end OF summer, the fall
crop of grass will be a failure. New
grass should have been ready for
grazing BY September Is. cattle men

GIRL ENTERS RACE
FOR LOWER HOUSE
Nomination i'm Montana Is Sought by
Miss jeanette Rankin,
Suffrage Leader.

BUTTE, Mont. Aug. ga whirl-
Miss jeanette Rankin of Montana for
the Republican nomination to con-
gress. She is the busiest OF all the
candidates in her home state, and
when it comes to hand-shaking and
speech making, no mere man can
equal her.
In the first place, Miss Rankin
knows what she is talking about.
Three years ago she was chief field
organizer for the National Suffrage
association, which engineered a
march on congress and waged an on
slaught on the representatives, in
dividually and en- masse in the cause
of votes for women.
Then two years ago she cam
paigned up and down her home state
in the interests of suffrage, visiting
every county and almost every voting
precinct before she finished her
work.
So she knows how things are run
I'm congress, and she knows the po-
litical ins and outs of the state whose
support she seeks as well. Montana,
by the way, has only one representa-
tive in the lower house at Washing
ton.
Miss Rankin is attractive. She is
magnetic as n public speaker. Also,
she possesses the faculty of making
friends. Her supporters, therefore,
predict that she will be on the ticket
next fall, although she is making her
campaign chiefly on the issue of q
federal amendment granting the
franchise to women and the kindred
issue of a national law to abolish
child labor.
