the magazines and daily newspapers are
nothing more nor less than insults to
the feminine sex, although we scarcely
ever think of them in that light. But
let us stop to consider what sort of read
ing matter we find on the usual woman
page of the monthly periodical and the
little dash of fashion, the newest sleeve
and the latest cut of BODICE then some
beauty hints, how to make straight hair
curly and the recipe for keeping the
elbows soft and round; next some cook
ing connections are dished up for us,
the newly discovered method to use up
cabbage scraps, or how to prepare prunes
so that they will taste like candied cher
ries; column or two of advice on how
to make the home pleasanter for the
husband, or in what manner we should
cultivate our womanliness. Then if
there is any space left 1t is filled with
remarks anent the latest crochet stitch,
or some touching little tale about how
one faithful wife helped to pay off the
mortgage. The whole thing is labeled
"Woman's Page, but it might just as
well read For the Inferior Intellect"
The general public, or in other words
the American press seems to harbor an
idea that women cannot, will not, and
should not be interested in anything
outside of their own small field of labor.
Now we all know that men have their
trade journals. The merchant, his ad-
visor; the garage man, his motor mag
azine; the physician, his medical jour
nal; the printer, his manual; the farm
er, his agricultural paper. But do the
men conine their reading to these par
Lieular things? Certainly not The
men read their trade journals for help
In their work, but for their periods of
they are sure to turn to
entirely outside the field of
heir labors, something refreshing and
new and inspiring. But the woman of
he house is constantly reading the
same OLD round or things because ev-
Try paper and every magazine that goes
nto her home is stuffed with "women's
'ages" or sections for Mothers and
ninety women out of every hundred will
cad the things under such a head be-
ause she feels that she ought to be in
crested in the matter Why have
pecial literature for women at all?
Women have the same amount of brains
nth which men are endowed, if they
would only get busy and use them.
hey should be just as interested in ma
onal affairs in politics, in science, in
eligion, as the men, if only they might {

FARMS AND FLOWERS
a s a general thing 1t is the woman
N on the farm who is harped at the

m
most because of the fact that
she is the one who is the most apt to
voluntarily relinquish the things in
life which make for her own com
fort. In other words, she is the
most unselfish of her sex But with
the coming of spring, 1t is time for the
farm woman to forget for little space
the Matching of her chickens and the
planting of her cabbages and tomatoes.
AS a means of recreation and delight,
the planting of flowers is just as i'm
portant, If not to the stomach of the
family at least to the artistic sense 1t
is appalling the numbers of farm homes
which are without the joy of vines and
flowers. One can see thousands of fine
houses 1anked by great well-filled barns,
magnificent silos crammed with en-
silage, beautiful smooth wheat and al
falfa fields glistening rows of silky
waving corn, and valleys of Clearly cot
ton, but the sight of a beautiful yard
or an artistic front doorway on the
farm is rare. There are so many things
10 do, so goes the cry, and mighty true
one 1t is, but some of the little things
should be left undone in the springtime
so that the tender flowers may be made
to grow, and the greening vine trained
to artistic curves For these are the
things that help to make the home and
the things that the women and the girls
on the farm yearn for. Flowers are the
voluntary offerings of the earth to
heaven; the prayers of natures heart
sent up to God With their gladstone
faces in the spring, they speak as moth
ing else does to us of immortality. Their
presence about the dooryard where our
feet go in and out, is a constant re-
hinder of the beauties OF our world and
the goodness of our God. They bring
into our everyday lives something too
Intangible to be described, too mystic
to be defined, but which makes for the
expansion of our souls and where there
are women and little children, there also
should flowers always be- So, in the
first flush of the new year, it would be
well for the mothers who live in the
country as well as for those in town. to
put aside for an hour each day the cor
roding indoor cares, and go into the
fragrant out-of-doors, there to set into
the ground those dull brown seeds,
which will later add so many joys and
beauties to the home

MEN SHOULD
ARBITRATE

Declaring that a general railroad
strike would result In untold hard
ship and general suffering to the pub
~fIc. the Railroad Commission of Ne
vada have passed p resolution urging
both sides to arbitrate. The resolu-
tion without entering into the merits
OF either side OF the controversary
says ''the principles of arbitration are
recognized and approved by all civil
lied nations and peoples and arbi-
tration is regarded the most effective
method for securing fair. peaceful
and equitable adjustment to all cnn-
eerned"
The resolution reads
Whereas. employees in train. engine
and yard service on the railroads OF
the United States have made demands
on the arrangements for changes in
their working schedules, which de-
mands have been declined but with an
offer by the arrangements to arbtrate
The employees have refused to arbitrate
and are now voting to determine
whether or not to authorize the call
ing of general strike. The rail-
roads are public servants and their
operation is essential TO the public
welfare. A general strike with all
the hardships. waste, suffering and
loss that would follow from demoral-
ization of the service. sat one serious
to contemplate and Is intolerable.
The principles of arbitration are rec
ognized and approved by all civilized
nations and peoples and arbitration is
regarded the most effective method for
securing fair peaceful and equitable
adjustments to all concerned
With no attempt to express judg-
ments on the merits of the contro-
versary, and for the single purpose OF
safeguarding the general public, the
employees and the railroads from the
widespread and intense distress in
eyitably attending general suspen-
sion oftransportation service we dc
hereby
Resolve that ii is our earnest re-
quest and solicitude that the refusal
of the employees to accede to the offer
of the managements to arbitrate be
reconsidered and that in regard for the
public welfare they submit to arbitra-
tion. Such a course will preserve tc
the general public uninterrupted
transportation service to the employees
and managements. tranquil and mu-
tually beneficial relations, and will
accomplish the desired results with
out the many hardships and sacri-
fices general strike would entail.

DECREASE IN REVENUE CAUSE
FOR RAISE IN LAND VALUES

Bert Dolan, Sheriff of Mono county,
was in Gardnerville Monday attend
ing TO business matters. Speaking of
the recent raise of valuations of land
in that county,. he declared that such
a step was made necessary to carry on
the county government. Since the
mining at Bodie has dwindled away to
almost nothing and the fact that the
county has been derived of large
revenue from liquo. licenses, that now
being dry" territory, the county
must look to other sources for meeting
the expense of county affairs. How
ever, he points to the fact that land in
MS county and near the lnyo bound
airy has been taxed for Sc per acre,
while In inyo county The same land is
taxed for s35 per acre. The land in
Mono county Is to be classified and
assessed according to It's actual valu-
alton.

Coyote Attacks
nerder in Mono

Last Sunday afternoon a herdsman
who was in charge of band of sheep
at Devils Gate near Fales Hot Springs
was attacked by coyote which he
is certain was afflicted with the rab-
bies, and from the description he has
given of the actions of the animal
there is little question but that it was
in the advanced stage of the disease.
The man had gun. but was sup
piled with but one charge in 1t and
with this he shot of the hind leg of
the coyote which still continued to at
tach the herder and his dog. The man
smashed his rifle in beating the coy
ote to death, says the News. The dog
was bitten and was later killed.
Mr.. Cunningham. manager of the
Antelope Valley Land and Cattle Co.,
took the carcass of the coyote and is
believed to have sent the head to the
university to be tested for rabies.
Fales Hot Springs is but IA miles
from Bridgeport and the people in
that section are greatly excited over
the matter, and if the examination of
the head proves that the coyote was
rabid, hunters will be sent out at
once to make war on them.
