W0MAN'S CLUB WANT
TO ERECT BUILDING
On Reid Street Owned bv
Club-To Be Discussed
Today.

Mrs. E. M. Dunsford, president of
the Palatka Woman's Club has call
ed meeting of the club at the Put.
nam House parlors at 4 o'clock this
afternoon for the purpose of discus
sing plans for the proposed new club
house.
That sounds good.
The Palatka Woman's Club owns a
fine lot on Reid street between Third
and Fourth streets, directly in rear
of the new building being erected on
Lemon street by Leo Jacobson. The
club also has $1,000 in the treasury,
so we are given to understand. Plans
for building will be studied at the
meeting this afternoon and it is like
ly that some definite steps will be tax
en- toward an early construction of the
building.
AS one lady, a prominent club
worker stated: "We want to erect a
building to cost somewhere between
$4,000 and $4,000. We have 81 1000 in
the treasury now. Our idea was to
erect a club house that could be rent
ed for church and other public en-
tertainments and which could serve as
a club house. There is no place in
the city at present suited for church
or society socials. We would also
have a small hall for entertainments.
There is some opposition to the plan,
but believe a majority of our club
women favor the building. Other ci-
ties and towns have them and are do
ing well. Crescent City club women
have had club house for many years
and it is a social center. Last win
ter this club also built what is possi-
bly, the prettiest little theaer in Flori-
da at cost of $4,000 and are con-
Quoting moving picture theater In
it. It is the leading organized effort
for social Improvement in the town
and on it's ample grounds the club
has tennis courts and other forms of
amusement. The club there also is
a potent factor in municipal work,
having contributed much toward road
and sidewalk building; in fact the
Crescent City women have been lead
ers in every piece of town improve
ment attempted in the orange city
in the past 20 years or more. They
had to borrow money to put up the
theater, or part of it. The Palatka
club has enough to start on and |
believe can borrow the balance needed
at a favorable rate of interest. |
think we should begin the work i'm
mediately, and will hope to assist in
bringing about action looking to that
end"

Mr., c. R, Poole, one of the leading

place Mr.. Norwich did not join the

an act to provide for and regulate
primary elections, approved June 3,
1918.
Party Legislation.
"The quoted section Of the consti-
tuition requires that the subject of
the act shall be briefly expressed in
the title. The subject of the statutes
referred to is primary elections.
There is no reference in the title of
either of the acts to general elec-
tions.' A primary election is a
substitute for a convention and is
simply method of selecting party
candidates.
"a general election is an election
Of officers. They are not synono-
nous terms nor is one, comprehended
in the other. They are employed
for distinct purposes and different
results are accomplished by them.
"By the title the legislature eX-
pressly limited the scope of this leg
islation to providing for and regulat-
ing primary elections There is no
reference in the title of either of the
acts to the Subject of general cleo
tons and it is not clear that the
qualification electors for general
elections can be regarded as matter
properly connected with the Subject
as to render unnecessary a reference
to it in the title of the statute. In
this situation there is, think, suffi-
cient doubt of the validity of that pro-
vision of these statutes making the
registration for primary elections a
registration also for general elections
to have attention called to it and to
suggest to the registration officers
that all electors who have heretofore
registered in the registration books
for general elections do so while the
books are open, in order that no ques-
+ ton may arise as to the regularity
and validity of their registration.
"Of course | do not say that this
provision of the statute is invited. |
only undertake to demonstrate that it
may be so held by the courts, and [
do say that there is room for doubt
of its validity and that since this is
true the safe course for an elector is
to see to it that he is duly registered
uron the registration books for gen.
eraI elections so that if it should be
held that the registration for primary
elections is not a sufficient regis
tration for general elections, he would
not be denied the right to vote in the
general election.
"This is advisable for another rea-
son, namely: If, after the general cleo
ton is held, the question of whether
or not electors who had registered on
the registration books for primary
elections but had not registered on
the registration books for general
elections were qualified to vote in the
general election, was raised and it
should be held that such registration
was not sufficient, great uncertainty
and dissatisfaction would probably
follow.
"For this reason I am suggesting
that all electors register just as if
the registration books for primary
elections were not in existence. OF
course if any elector has heretofore
registered in the registration books
for general elections, it will not be
necessary to do so again.
Respectfully,
"T. F. WEST,
"Attorney General"

To Open Way to West Coast With
out Crossing the State to
Jacksonville

Clearwater, Dec. 21.-With the
proposed extention of the ola TAM
pa Northern railroad from Brooks-
vile to Dunnellon, which 1t IS sald
has been promised by Capt. Sturkle
to be started early in 1917, II IS pc
1ieved that the first link OF a COM
pIete west coast line is under way.
II is believed locally that within the
next two years a line will have been
completed so that tourists from the
north will find that St. Petersburg
is a rate computing point and they
will not have to come through jack
sonville, says the st. Petersburg
Times.
In the past jacksonville has been
the gateway of Florida and all spe-
ciaI rates to tourists were Inquired
only to that point and from there
southwark the regular three-cent
IdTo was CudTScu. HCiC mas oSS-
many rumors of west coast line
which would lead directly north
from the west coast resorts, shorten
the distance and make consider
able reduction in the fare that would
be charged.
After the completion of connect
ing link from Brooksville to Dun
Mellon a comparatively short line
from Archer to Wannee and from
Wannee to Perry would open up an
other gateway to Florida. This
would be of great and lasting bene-
fit to st. Petersburg.
Capt. Cturkie was one of the orig
inal incorporators Of the Tampa
and the fact that he is
promoting the project and is so in
fuential as promoter, is very en-
to the Brooksville Board
Of Trade, which has been working
30 diligently to consummate the ex-
tension.

Hob Women Habe Made
Poultry Raising Pay

(By Michael K. Boyer, Poultry Editor
Of The Farm Journal.
1t has been demonstrated that from
30 to 100 hens kept by an energetic
woman will yield a profit Of So per
head, and there will still be plenty of
eggs and poultry left for the home
demand. AS "pin-money" enterprise
hens have no equa.
On many of the farms, especially in
the West, the poultry is given in
charge Of the women of the house
hold. 1t is work naturally adapted to
women; it calls for patience and at
tention, and at the same time kind
ness and gentleness-traits that do
not always dwell in the sterner sex.
There is no event in connection with
poultry culture during the year, which
has not its interest for those who
care for innocent creatures Of the
farm yard-whether it is feeding the
stock, gathering the eggs, Matching out
the chicks, or culling the flocks in the
fall to meet the capacity Of the winter
quarters. They all have their charm,
and excite the interest and sympathy
OF those who have love for the work.
Psychologists tell us that our Amer
lean women lose health and beauty
earlier than they should, for want of
sufficient out-of-door air and exercise.
Whether or not this true, we may be
certain that the poultry business has
among its other benefits the virtue
of sending the caretaker into the pure
outer air, and melting a love for nat
ural beauty not found among those
whom no such duty temps from the
Preside.
Take Women Into Partnership.
1t seems that woman is fitted by ma
The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1916-12-21

ture to care for young animals; her
instincts teach her to understand their
wants. Consequently, when she be-
comes interested in any living crea.
ture neither time nor labor is spared
to promote its welfare. It can also
be said that woman is much more
ingenious than man, and quicker in
devising new ways and means Of do
ing things. Tom Barron, the English
poultry raiser, who came to America
in 1914 and delivered a lecture be-
fore a poultry convention held at
Storrs, Conn.,, dwelt at considerable
length on this very subject. It will
be remembered that Mr.. Barron, pre-
vious to his visit here, won in one
contest after another, and
it made our poultrymen sit up and
take notice.
AS Mr.. Barron said, when he con.
cluded to go into the poultry bust
ness, he felt he must first consult Mrs.
Barron. He talked the mater over
with her because he lieved that a
good wife could be Of great help in
this line. She encouraged him, and
he was confident success with her
help. II can tell Chat I would not
have been where am today only for
my wife," was the way Barron put
his tribute. MANY times sensible
woman can help a man out of hole
a great deal better than a lot of
like this wife-partnership, and I
believe, with Barron, that if a man
lakes his wife into his confidence he
seldom goes wrong. She is more
careful and quick to notice details.

in producing fodder and grain t(
carry the newcomers livestock
until he could get other forage
crops started.
In more recent years men Wht
grow pork on an economical has.
is use some Of the early hints fol
this purpose. BY turning the
hogs out in the fenced field and
allowing them to harvest b c
crop, a lot of time and labor is
saued, besides many a backache
that every man has experienced
/ n picking these low-growing
hints. Men who have practlced
this system are we'll pleased with
results and continue each year to
increase their acreage for this
purpose.
Many of the corns best adapted
to Montana produce an album
dance Of fine leaves which make
them of special value as fodder
corns. The stalks of these corns
are not SO large as some of the
larger growing dent varieties and
make a much finer quality OF
feed. This eliminates consider,
able waste and gives a feed that
is relished by all kinds OF live
stock. A good many growers
make a practice Of stacking the
fodder so that it will be handy to
feed during the winter, which
saves the trouble Of hauling from
a snow and ice laden field. This
when properly carried
out gives good results, and very
loss, if any, occurs from
heating or moulding in the stack.
With the homesteader this means
feed for his livestock the first
season if need be, for it will be
an u~ncommonly dry wear when
he does not get some fodder on
sod.
Feeding fodder BY either Of
these methods entails more Or
.oss of food valIe, for when the
corn remains in the shock until
Try a large percentage Of the
are broken off and wasted.
This loss may run as high as 40
per cent and more, which means
hat much feeding value is simply
thrown away.
Another method that eliminates
his shrinkage and one that is
a pld Y spreading throughout
EASTERN Montana, is the using Of
:orn silage. TIE silo is the best
Insurance the corn grower has a.
early frosts such as hit
he Northwest this season and
the loss of much corn
where it was not possible to put
