A Wonnan's
Rights
BY ETHEL HOLMES

Miss Elinor Bates was preparing her
trOuSSeau for her marriage with Jack
Weatherby when she received a note
from him calling the affair off. He gave
no excuse, but Elinor knew that he had
never been known to stick to one girl
for any length of time and felt sure
that she had been replaced.
Miss Bates was a native of South
Carolina, but had spent ten of her
twenty years in the north, where she
had imbibed the ideas Of the new wom-
an. Her grandfather had fought a
duel, and in her family the code was
considered the only way Of settling un-
pleasant affairs. These two conditions,
a belief in the right of an injured per-
son to demand satisfaction from the
injurer and the elevation Of women to
the privileges of men, decided her to
send a challenge to Mr.. Weatherby.
Jack was dressing for dinner when
he received Elinor's note, for she had
not gone so far as to send a second,
and, laying it open ON the dresser, read
it, finishing making bow of his neck
tie at the same time. When he had
finished both he lighted cigarette
and, throwing himself into an easy
chair, gave himself up to thought
Now, the reason for his breaking
with Elinor was that the income to
support her was to come from his IA
Their, who had agreed to give him $5,-
600 year, and he had at the last mo-
ment changed his mind. Jack, think
ing that an explanation Of this would
only serve to irritate Elinor against his
father, chose another course.
Jack, who did not consider that truth
had any more place in love affairs than
in a statement Of woman's age, re-
piled to the challenge by saying that
he had promised his mother that he
would never fight duel On this ac-
count he must decline to render Miss

SET CATTLE FEEDING DAY.
College Plans Big Gathering Of Feed
ers on March 23d, When Feeding
Results Will Be Made Public.

Cattle feeders from every county in
Iowa, of whom there are some $4,000
in the state, are expected to be pres
ent at Iowa State college on Cattle
Feeding day, set aside by the animal
husbandry department as Friday,
March 23d. On that day will be made
public the results of various college
cattle feeding experiments dealing
with problems of profitable and more
efficient feeding, all Of vital import
ance to every feeder in the state.
With six lots of two year old steers
fed in different ways since last No
vember, as the basis for discussion,
such important questions will be; an
ewered as: 5ta lst i. $s
What ii the prot per head an Fat:
tentng 2 year old steers on $1l corn
this year? How much high priced
corn grain is it profitable to feed fat
tening year old steers when they are
receiving a full feed of corn silage,
properly supplemented? Should the
corn grain ration be self fed or hand
fed? Should the hand fed cattle re-
ceive all the grain they will eat or
IL or IA that amount for best profits?
How does alfalfa compare with corn
silage, both being fed side by side to
2 year old cattle How about hogs fol-
lowing cattle; how much grain do they
actually pick up behind cattle Is it
a good plan to use the concrete feed
ing floor both on the inside of the
sleeping shed and the outside exercise
yard?
The lots Of steers, each fed diff
ferently to determine the answer to
these questions, will be exhibited to
the visitors; beef men from Chicago,
representing the buying and selling
end of the beef business, will estimate
the value of the steers and actual
profit on each lot estimated to deter
mine the most profitable method of
cattle feeding.
Because so many feeders are expect
ed to attend it is hoped that all who
plan to come will inform the animal
husbandry department at Iowa State
college.

Start Now for Velvet rurf.

If you would have good lawn next
summer now is the time to give 1t at
tentiOn.
If manure was applied last fall. rake
it up and cart it off. If you did not Ap-
ply the manure last fall, put some
good fertilizer on the lawn now. The
lawn must be fed to have it velvety.
Bone meal and wood ashes in equal
quantities are good, used at the rate
of pounds of the mixture to the
square rod. Put it on in several ap-
plications. Spade and cultivate the
bare spots and sow grass seed bought
from reliable dealer. When buying
grass seed be sure to get "recleaned
seed" The following is a good mix
ture that can be made at home: Blue
grass, parts by weight; Italian rye
grass, parts by weight; white clover.
1 part by weight, and red top, 2 parts
by weight. The Italian ryegrass is q
biennial, which gives an immediate
lawn, while the bluegrass becomes
established.
Use a heavy roller on the lawn Of
ten to have a perfect turf.
