re enforcement. The Progressive vote
in Oklahoma in 1914 amounted TO
approximately $500 votes, and since
the most of that small, but valiant
contingent, have signified their in
tention of supporting Wilson and the
Democratic National ticket 1t does
not seem probable that they will in
crease their vote to any great extent
from this source. The registration
and the primary election shows a
decided falling off in the Republican
vote. and it is more than probable
that 1t will take unusual effort on
their part to hold in line the 75,OOO
voters who cast their ballots tor their

DON'T RESPECT WOMEN
Asiatics Have Theory That Female
Was Formed From Dog Tail

The Asiatic entertains little or no
respect for women, whom he regards
for the most part as creatures Of an
altogether inferior order, devoid of
much intelligence, resembling brutes
in being without a soul. Women, in
his eyes, are solely fitted to act as
the hand maiden, even as the slave,
to the stronger sex. The native woman
is fortunate indeed if she can secure
the sort of contemptuous liking and
plying indulgence with which men
are accustomed to regard pet animals.
An amusing illustration of the con-
tempt which men in the Orient enter
tain for their women is to be found
in that story current throughout the
Moslem world, according to which our
Mother Eve was fashioned, not from
the rib of Adam but from the tail
of a dog-that is to say, OF the anil
nal which is regarded by the Koran
as ranking next in uncleanliness to
the hog, the dog being the scavenger
par excellence of Asiatic cities, towns
and villages. 1t seems that Allah,
having cut out the rib from Adam,
had lad it on the ground besi1e him
while engaged in sewing up the wound
made by the incision. a dog happen

rib. snapped it up and bolted there

Methodists Split On Change.

Consideration Of two memorials
to the General Conference, proposed
by Rev. v. s. Collins. precipitated a
lively discussion at Mondays session
of the Wilmington Methodist Episco-
pal Preachers Association. One
memorial concerns supernumerary
ministers and proposed changing
Methodist law SO there shall be no
voting of the supernumerary relation
without first referring to commit
tee ON conference relations for in
vestigation. This was unanimously
adopted.
The other memorial was designed
to prevent the reappointment of q
district superintendent after serving
a term of six years. This brought
on lively debate between number
of the ministers, some favoring and
some opposing the memorial. Efforts
to lay it on the table we're defeated
and finally the memorial was de-
feated by a decisive vote.

Mack And Moran Tell OF Pennant
Teams In N. A. Baseball
Number.


Connie Mack and Pat Moran are
the star contributors to The North
Americans twelfth annual baseball
supplement, which appears Sunday,
May 21.
These famous managers, in speci-
ally prepared signed articles, discuss
the building of championship base
ball teams, subject which they
should know, since between them
they have produced in the last fifteen
seasons more pennant winners than
any other city has had.
In that interval Philadelphia has
had six championships in the Ameri-
can League and one in the National,
as we'll as three worlds titles.
Father Penn, as the city of baseball
supremacy, is the subject of the at
tractive first page in colors, the work
of Artist Morris Pancoast.
James C. Isaminger, The North
Americans noted baseball humorist,
presents an entertaining article in
which he deals with the foibles and
personality of the fan. Joe Cum
|ningham, cartooninst and conductor
of the Bubbles Puzzle Department,
illustrates Mr.. Isaminger's articles.
George M. Graham, sports editor
of The North American, draws a
picture of what happens on the
bench during the excitement of big
league contests. all the heat of play,
the grim humor, the lightning flash
Of the players minds, all being
brought vividly to the mind of the
reader.
Ross e. Kaufman is there strong
with a couple of pages of school and
college baseball. There is the usual
roster of local clubs. announcements
by the minor leagues and illustrated
forecasts Of many teams thruout the
state.
Something new IN the way of
contest is presented in which 500 in
prizes is offered to fans who can
identity the greatest number of
former Philadelphia and Athletic
players, whose pictures are printed
without the names. This test per-
mits an interesting trial of memory
and of baseball loyalty.
Previous editions of The North
Americans baseball edition have al
ways been sold out.

The late spring means a rush Of
work later. That means that time
will be money when the rush is on;
not only time of labor but time Of
getting crops started. Good clean
seed, true to name, free from weeds
and foul matter, and strong in
vitality are always an insurance
against delay and poor stands. A
late season always demands extra
attention to seeds. There will be
less time for replanting and re-
planting that must be done will
have a shorter season for mautur-
ity. The value of testing seed
corn has been well demonstrated
by experience of practical farmers.
Every farmer knows he ought to
test corn. This year his loss will
be greater than in normal years ii
he does NOT make sure that his
seeds will grow as soon as put into
the ground.

good yields as the others per acre,
had practically nothing to sell, and
the stock to which he fed his crops
was too poor to give him profitable
returns.
The important thing for Baldwin,
said the demonstrators when they
had ascertained these. facts, was to
weed out his herd, to keep record
of the production of each cow and to
get rid of those which were costing
him money. The next thing was If
possible to rent or buy little more
land SO that the size of his business
would be more commensurate with
it's equipment. He and his horses
were capable of farming as much
land as his neighbors, and by not
doing it he was wasting his time just
as his cows were wasting his feed.
Such demonstrations, of course,
are valuable only for the community
in which they are made. They can
not be taken to mean that it is bet
ter to keep cows than IL, to sell
crops than to feed them, or to culti-
vate 90 acres than so. They show,
however, that there are always
profitable and Improbable ways of
running farm in any community,
and that if man Is losing money
in return for hard work it will pay
him to learn from his neighbors who
are making it. 1t is in helping him
to do this that the county agents
are now finding one Of their most
useful functions.
