SENATOR KIRBY evidently be- lieves that he would have a bet ter chance to put over" his schemes of agrandizement if the press of the country was mug zled. Senator Kirby was elected by the people of Arkansas be- cause the State Democratic Gen. tral Committee gave them no choice in the matter. It will not happen again, however, as the people of Arkansas are walk ing up to a realization of what machine politics mean. Senator Kirby is a horrible example. !" -Brlnkley Citizen.

Their Suffrage Promise A Moral Obligation to
 Oklahoma Legislators
Mrs. Lucas, First Woman to Enroll Bill, Extols Political
 Leaders.

A political promise is no scrap of paper to Oklahoma legislators. An oyerwh helmingly Democratic legisla. ture demonstrated what President Wilson calls the moral obligation of the St Louis national suffrage plank by adopting the Oklahoma suffrage amendment resolution in both houses in March of this year.
 Back of Oklahoma's recent suffrage victory is story of mans humanity and gratitude to woman It IS told by Mrs. Frank B. Lucas of Oklahoma City. who claims the distinction or being the only woman to enroll leg islatiye measure. Enrolling an act, Mrs. Lucas explains, is the final dis position made of a successful meas ure.
 "Why did they permit me to do it?' said Mrs. Lucas. Because they knew I understood the procedure It is my vocation to compile, annotate and citate laws. The legislators let me enroll the suffrage bih because they knew could be trusted not to alter a word or a line Never was l so tempted, The resolution had been amended to permit women to vote at the primaries but the amendment had been lost. l did want to see that amendment go in"
The Ozark spectator., 1917-06-02

From the Governor, who was pleased to sign the resolution, down, Mrs. Lucas has nothing but kind words for the men of her state In deed. they seem to merit her praise. And she should know for she chap eroned the bill through all its vicissi- tudes up to the moment of passage on the closing night after the clock had been stopped to permit the transaction of legislative business.
 Men of all parties throughout the state were in favor of the amend ment and did all in their power to facilitate its passage.
 On the last night when the bill had not yet been reported out of com mittee. Mrs Lucas persuaded one of it's friends to call a caucus and bind the members by caucus rule, and when the measure came to a vote later in the evening. il carried with ut a dissenting voice. She hurried with the engrossed bill to the House 10 have that body recede from its primary election clause and ratify the substituted general election. Then back she went to the Senate for the presidents signature; and again 10 the House for the Speakers sigma. ture and to have the bill engrosscd with its amendments. At 2 an. Mrs Lucas had the satisfaction of enrolling the act which will enamel pate the Oklahoma women if the cam. paign prosecuted hy the suffragists during the coming months is brought to a successful conclusion at the polls in 1918.
 The president of the Oklahoma State Suffrage Association is Mrs. Adelia G. Stephens. The correspond ing secretary is Mrs. Julia Wood worth.
 Mrs Lucas is chairman of the finance committee. All tlree are residents of Oklahoma City but rep. resentative women from all over the state were largely instrumental in the passage of this bill.

 Help feed the Arkansas troops and their horses. Put something on seub- ble land as soon as possible, and do everything to help produce surplus. Make your land work as far as possi- ble all the time. AS soon as the oat and wheat crops are of the land, plant something and keep the teams and la borers busy Remember, you are working for Arkansas now.
 The crops which can still be plant ed at this season of the year are the old stand-bys-the cowpeas, peanuts, sorghum and sweet potatoes. Aside from these can be mentioned the soy bean and late corn. The velvet bean can still be planted for forage or soil improvement. The yields of forage from these late planted crops are good even though lighter than can usually be expected from the earlier plant tngs A combination of sorghum and COW. peas, seeded with & grain drill, will probably produce as large yield of forage as anything. Corn planted M rows i've or six feet apart with eswpeas. soy beans, or peanuts, dstf.' ed through the middle is a good prac- tfos whore grain is desired and the forage osn bs pastured. Planting cowpeas CT soy beans in the TOW with corn makes an excellent combinatao for the silo, especially on good soils.

KEEP EARLY ARKANSAS iNtSN
 POTATO CROP AT HOME.
How To Ss~s oprino Crop and Pfe-
 ducs Fail Crop.

By K. F. Kapp, District Agent. Extea-
 sion Division, U. of A.
 Some means should be taken to heep rhe early Irish potato crop iA Arks nsas this year Our farmers are making a great mistake in permitting them to leave the state There is serious shortage in the worlds supply and the practice we have of shipping ovt the carly crop in June and by the middle of July oT August 1 receiving return shipments to supply our needs may prove disastrous this year be- cause 1t will not only be practically impossible to get Irish potatoes back into the state, but the price will be prohibtive.
 How To Save Them.
 The spring crop of Irish potatoes can be saved for home use by spread ing them out on 6 floor in well ven- tilated building. or on the ground un- der building, The latter plan is pre- ferable if suitable place is at hand The potatoes should be spread out
 
 touch each other After a few days they should be gone over carefully and any that have begun to decay should he picked out. If the potatoes are very wet at digging time, scatter air saaked Mme over them to absorb the moisture. In this way home supply can be kept until December or Jan mry. after which they will become go shriveied and watery that they ars rot f1t for food, and are net good for seed
 Plant . Fsta Crop.
 "M0t fa SmSss do ns4 attempt to srov a Sall crop of tTiah potatoes fos the reason that 1t Is so difficult to get a stand that is worth while. Some Arkansas farm CTS, again, have prov ~n that it is possible to get . very good stand for . fall crop. Their meth cd is as follows:
 Select . plat of good ground for the fall crop and blow 1t immediately Then blow and replow 1t as the sea son advances. Get a deep. thoroughly
 
 weeds grow on the plat Only mature potatoes should be used for seed Gull out the smaller potatoes from the spring crop and care for them as indi- cated About the middle Of July plant them in the seed bed prepared accord ing 10 the directions just mentioned. II will be found that enough moisture has been conserved by thorough pre- Darstion. blowing and narrowing. to aprout the potatoes and get a fair stand. It cannot be expected that as good a yield will be obtained in the fall as with spring crop. but plenty can be produced to supply the needs of family and provide seed for plant. ing next spring"
 Green Seed Potatoes.
 Take the seed potatoes culled from the spring crop as soon as dug and bed them out in a dense shade. under a tree where sunlight trickles through Is a good place. Scatter enough dirt over them so that about one-half of the potato is left exposed Keep them damp. In two or three weeks the exposed part of the potato will not rot and is sure to sprput. If both the land preparation and green ing methods are carried out a good crop of fall potatoes may be expect
