Some Famous Women Are Won
To Cause Of Suffrage

Even il the vote proves a burden, one more able woman rises gallant
" to meet the responsibihty-Kate Douglas Wiggn, famous the world
over as author and for long the bright particular boast Of the ants, has
been won TO suffrage.
What makes her conversion the strongest kind Of testimony, says a
writer is the fact that II was 30 hard wrung. She didn't want to be a suf-
fraght and says so frankly 1t was very difficult for her to change her
point Of view, built up through the years by every sort Of circumstance,
environment, field Of work, and temperamental. leaning" But IL had to
be- The evidence Of the need Of votes for women al there and when she
saw that II was incontrovertible she stopped trying to controvert it. She
has sent the National American Woman Suffrage association the follow
ing statement;
"The entirely new conditions that confront the woman Of
today; the added activities and responsibilities that will ineyita-
bly, fall to her lot; these more or less silent arguments convince
me that, even II the vote should prove a burden, it is my plain
duty to stand for equal suffrage.

Among other famous converts to suffrage, Mrs. William Jennings
Bryan reports the famous singer Nine. schumann-Ienk who has become
90 deeply interested that she is fortifying herself with suffrage literature.
Another convert is Mrs. Spencer Trask, "Katrina Trask," famous as
writer and humanitarian. Mrs. Trask, in contributing $3.50 to the New
York State Woman Suffrage party, took occasion to say:
"The world now needs women IS 1t never did before, and lit ii neces-

POINTERS FOR THE
POULTRY KEEPERS

A high-water mark has been reached
this winter In price OF poultry prod
ucts, especially eggs. This phenomenal
price has caused hundreds Of poultry
men 10 put forth an extra effort to In
crease their egg production, writes O,
s. Anderson OF the Colorado Agrlcul-
tural college. In the majority OF cases
this effort has not brought tho desired
result, and here Is the one big reason
the pullets Being forced did not have
tho maturity and age necessary for
winter laying. Their feed. ARE and
housing may have been above question,
but their handicap OF being Matched
late could not be overcome.
The spring Is the normal season Of
the year for hens to lay, and II they
lay literally. then they cannot be
forced TO heavy production In the win
ter. The fall and winter Is natures
natural resting period. For this rea-
son woodworking records can never
be expected from young hens.
Puliets Will always be the main force
In producing winter eggs. As In the
case OF the hen, however, winter lay
ing Is not natural, and their tendency
toward spring laying must be Offset by
Matching them early enough to reach
the degree OF growth and maturity
necessary for egg production In the
fall. Pullets that have not sufficient
development to begin laying before the
evere winter weather starts will al
most invariably not lay before Feb
ruary or March.
Many Of the puzzllng problems that
confronted the poultrymen this winter
will be avoided next year II the hatch
ing Is done three weeks to a month
earlier. II should be remembered that
the time OF the year the eggs are laid
Is far more important than the number
laid.
