WESTERN MIN
 RESPECT THE
 vOT|NC WOMEN

The east is east and tho west is Westmore's the pity says Mrs John Gordon Battelle of Columbus noted suffrage worker who is in Phoenix for the winter. Mrs. Battelle, who has contributed brains, time and funds to the suffrage cause, is proud of the big minded western man who has given his women folk political equal ity. While she believes the votes for women movement is gaining strength in the east, she does not believe that the eastern citizen is yet ready to grant the right of the ballot.
 Men show more respect and con- siderati0n 10 women who vote" she said yesterday in discussing her faV- Orite topic. '1'he western woman can not understand what we have Co con tend with-their gallant men gave them what was their right without question There Is no logical argu- mept against woman's suffrage and that is wlv the waiting is difficult We have appealed, argued, sought in Nain-bl.t when # corles-wc will be ready tC meet our responsibility"
 Mrs. Raftclle is a member of the Congressional Union, having serveu on the advisory board and is thor oughlv in sympathy with its some what militant methods. She also took an active part in the recent campaign
 being warm advocate of Charles
 Evans Hughes
 While her chief interest is centered
 in the passage of the Susan E. An
 th"nv amendment, Mrs Pattelle has
 not GcvGted all her energies to that paI ticular cause. She has given her attention to several worthy move ments amdng which is the Baby Camp conducted under the auspices of the District Nursing Association of Co., { lumbus As q director of the open air camp many individual cases have come under Mrs Battells's care and she has aided and helped many un- fortunate uoys and girls She was | children and s child welfare worker | of national reputation.

SPILLED HIS POT OF PAINT
Otherwise st~eepIeIack Was Unrufied
After Fall Of Fifty Feet From
Roof to the Sidewalk.

Some persons may fall from a chair
and get killed. Others may fall from
a church steeple and merely spill a pot
OF paint. In the latter class is Frank
Atkinson, a steeplejack.
While painting the steeple Of q
church in Philadelphia Atkinson fell
from the steeple to the roof of the
building, rolled down the steep slope
to the. caves and fell to the sidewalk,
nearly fifty feet below, Just missing
an iron paling.
Before his assistants could reach his
side. Atkinson was on his feet.
Boys" he said, syou had better
clean up that mess, referring to the
spilled paint.
His only injury was ~a,sprained wrist.
The steeplejack says he viii now join
the aviation service. Climbing church
towers is becoming too dangerous for
him.

other similar distinctions, at a festival
of orders, which includes a truly demo-
cratic banquet where the chancellor
may find himself sitting side by side

war some 1000 orders were handed out
at this annual festival, no fewer than
1000 of which were of the Red Eagle
brand.

account of its high yield and quality
and then further improved in the To-
caIity by selecting seed from the best
plants. One can easily select SUM
cient good seed from a field TO plant q
seed patch. A small seed patch could
be kept free from wild onions and mix
lures of other grains. BY this method
one could be sure of producing the
best seed for his section.
What Can BE Done Now.
The high price of wheat is likely to
result in a shortage Of homegrown
seed for planting this fall. This may
be avoided by saving the best seed
now. Growers who have good seed
should have the best for planting this
fail. Seedsmen of the state who have
not yet collected their supply should
use every effort to c n the best
North Carolina grown seed. Millers
who have good seed wheat grown In
the e ate may benefit themselves and
the rover of their community by
saving the best seed.

omy, N. C. Experiment Station,
West Raleigh, N G
Il is a custom among some wheat
growers to secure new seed rom
States further north every few years.
It is claimed by these growers that
wheat deteriorates when grown here
several years in succession. Some
even believe that a part of the wheat
turns to cheat. The seed gotten from
further north is said to yield better
than the homegrown seed when plant
ed here.
HOMEGROWN and Northern Grown
Seed Wheat Compared.
In order to secure information on
this point the Experiment Station and
State Department Of Agriculture haye
compared the yields from homegrown
and northern grown seed wheat OF the
same varieties. Several varieties have
been compared and in each a s the
homegrown seed was compared with
the same variety OF northern grown
seed. The comparisons were made
at the Mountain Branch Station near
Asheville and at the Piedmont Branch
Station near Statesvile.
Results at the Mountain Station.
The comparisons of homegrown
and northern grown seed wheat at the
Mountain Branch Station were made
for. three successive years. In thirs
teen comparisons during three years
the homegrown seed produced at the
rate of 1875 bushels per acre while the
northern grown seed produced 1872
bushels per acre or 3.7S bushels per
acre less than the homegrown seed.

More Than Hall Million copies g

Have Been Sold.

Robert,s esRuIes of Order" might
wei be classed as q Of the pest
sellers. More than $4,000 copies
had been sold at the time Of its last
revision in 1915. Probably not many
persons know it was written by g
military man, and even fewer know
that its author had to pay for the
printing of the first 1000 copies OF It,
saws the Kansas City Star.
Gen. Henry NJ. Robert of the United
States army; completed the debate
textbook in 1879. When he submitted
the volume to a publishing house It
came back to him with the pages un-
cut.
The publishers Informed General
Robert that they did not understand
how q military man could be expect
ed to stand as an authority on parlfa-
mentary practice. So General Robert
had 1000 copies printed at his own
expense and distributed them In 40
states. Soon the demand was so
great that a publishing firm gladly
took over the contract for printing
more.
'T might have answered the pub
fishers at the start that of all the men
I know, military men are the most
anxious for orderly ways out Of strife.
and care least for conflict" General
Robert said. military men, as IhaVe
known them, want trouble less than
any. Soldiers do not make wars. Give
iIfans do it."

Brlcadler General 81 Twentv. Elubt.

The war has seen some rapid pro-
motions. but probably the most rapid
is that Of B. G. Fregburg, who, at
t~wenty-eight years old, has been gazet-
ted temporary brigadier general. Born
in New Zealand, Freyberg was twice
wounded in Gallipoli, where he won
the distinguished service order for
swimming ashore In the Gulf of Saros
and was mentioned In dispatches deale

The results Of the 1914 test were
even more striking. In this~compari-
son the homegrown seed produced
ga bushels per acre nor than the
northern grown.
Results at the Piedmont Branch
Station.
Similar results were gotten at the
Piedmont Branch Station. During
three years Q914-1916) twenty-three
comparisons were made between home
grown and northern grown seed of the
same varieties. In these tests the
homegrown seed produced at the rate
Of 1901 bushels per acr while the
northern grown seed produced 1926
bushels. This gives an average Of three
pecks per acre in favor OF the home
grown seed. The test of.1914 contain
ed Is comparisons In which the home
grown seed averaged 1.3 bushels per
r nor than the northern grown.
Results from Another State.
Similar questions have arisen In
other states. The following paragraph
from Bulletin 1877 of the Utah Expert.
ment Station gives q summary of their
results when HOMEGROWN and outside
~seed-wheat were compared: 1T is a
common practice for big grain grow
ers to send away annually for seed
wheat. In this manner large quaint
ties of seed wheat are annually inn
ported into the intermountain region,
under the mistaken impression that
the homegrown seed is inferior in
quality. The results Of this investiga-
ton, therefore, r of utmost practi-
cal importance. The practice of ship
ping in seed wheat is entirely unnec-
essary and wasteful. The quality Of
the homegrown hard wheats is really
superior to the original seed. Good
pure wheat seed should be selected of
the kind the grower desires to raise.
He should then continue to raise his
own seed and with proper selection he
may rest assured that the quality of
the seed will not become inferior, but
he may have every confidence that his
wheat is of superior quality"
Deterioration or "RunnIng Out" OF
Seed Wheat.
The above results from three years
comparison of homegrown and north
ern grown seed wheat clearly indicate
that homegrown seed are preferable.
If this be true what does cause deteri-
~oration in seed wheat? The condition
known as deterioration or running
out"eef seed wheat is usually due to
poor are of the seed. Too often our
wheat fields are infested with wild
onions, cheat, mustard, and other
weeds. Wheat containing seed of such
weeds is unit for seed purposes.
Wheat that is damaged in the field,
stored wet, or stored in damp bins
will soon become unfit for seed pur.
poses. Such conditions would cause
deterioration of seed wheat in any sec.
ton of the country.

PETROGRAD LIES $50 MILES FROM
GREAT PORT ON BALTIC.
SEPARATE PEACE IS

Provisional Government Declares it is

Within Six Weeks-PetrOgrad is

Russian Nationalism.
London, Sept. s.-The Russian pro-
visional government has ordered the
abandonment of Riga, the great Rus
sian military stofeFOuse and port on
the Baltic. according to Petrograd
advices.
The capture of the city by the Ger
mans appeared imminent the dis
patches explained.
The evacuation order includes a
large territory around the city and
gives the Germans a big advantage in
their drive on Petrograd. Riga was
the main defense of the capital.
Fo rsome days there has been great
activity by the Germans in it's often
sive against Riga. the Teutons en-
ploying its forces on land, on the
sea and in the air against the city. It
was beset on tire sides-on the west
in the Lake RABBIT region, on the
southwest near Mitau and on the
southeast along the eastern bank of
the Diyna river, a scent Is miles dis
tant from the city.
In the latter region the Germans
after a heavy bombardment won the
Uxkun ~bridgehead, farmed as the
scene of many sanguinary encounters
and crossed the Dvina river. Thence
they shaped their course northward
along the waterway toward Riga. with
the Russians counter-attacking but
unable to hold them.
Riga is $50 miles by rail to Petro-
grad, and the capture OF the port and
the railway line which feeds Petrograd
makes that city untenable. It also
means the control of the. entrance ia
tn eGulf Of Finland, at the head Of
which stands Petrograd.
Russia Stronger Than Ever.
Petrograd, Sept. 3.-The political
position of the provisional govern
ment is now stronger than at any time
during the past six weeks.
All branches of the government are
cooperating to stamp u sedition and
pro-Germanism.
Many arrests are being made and
the death penalty will probably be
freely inflicted.
Moscow the Capitol Of Russia7
Washington, Sept. s.-The removal
of the Russian capital from Petrograd
to Moscow is expected to follow the
abandonment of Riga.
The fall of Riga and Petrograd it
self would not force separate peace.
peace according to officials here.
The removal of the capital to Mos
ocw is expected to help the privision-
al government as Petrograd is pro-
German and Moscow is the seat of
Russian nationalism.
Russia at Germany's Mercy.
Editors Note.-A writer in the
last issue Of the Saturday Evening
Post. a former consul to Germany
from the United States, predicted the
fall of Riga. He declares that Ger
many has had Russia beaten and its
soldiers cowed for a year 0 rso, and
that it hs not invaded White Russia
for political reasons. viz: That Ger
man was lighting France whit arms
and Russia with diplomacy, to tBe end
that Russia viii join the Central Pow
ers and turn on its former associates.
He further stated that German officers
commanded Russian troops early in
the war and lead the men to certain
death and withheld ammunition and
guns and provisions and hospital at
tenti0n and supplies.
