Kohashi's control.
She wrote up society events, edi-
torials, death notices; she had her
trials and triumphs, the same
every woman in a newspaper office
knows, and the latter always more
than made up for the former. She
missed one annoyance that those
who have charge of society news
have tasted with wry faces. 1t never
happens in Japan that an engage
ment is announced and some one
comes around to the Office the next
day to demand a retraction. Girls in
Japan are married to suit their
parents; the girl sees her future
husband two or three times before
the wedding day; the engagement is
never announced earlier than three
days before the wedding, for the
reason that most engagements are
not longer than three days. The
parents and the prospective groom
make all arrangements, and he
takes home his bride before the week
is out.
Naturally, the word Glove" does
not enter into the compact, and
there are many unhappy little
brides, failures of matrimonial life,
and many divorces.
1t is to bring about a change in
these customs that Miss Kohashi
will dedicate her life upon her re-
turn. Every effort an intelligent and
influential woman can make she will
make in an effort to save the women
of Japan from loveless marriages.

Equality Stated
In Covenant

1t is believed by some persons that
one of the most important questions
facing the struggling organization
is the part Of women. The equality
of women is established in the cove
nant of the league in Paragraph 3
OF Article VII, which reads:
Cali positions under or in connec-
tion with the league, including the
secretariat, shall be open equally to
men and women"
This clause was not in the origi-
nal covenant, but was introduced by
Lord Robert Cecil and adopted by
the full commission Of the league of
nations as the result Of the efforts
Of a group Of Allied women at the
peace conference. Colonel House
and President Wilson, American
members Of the commission, gave
the principle their hearty support.
The point is the application of
this principle.
Of course, typists, stenographers
and private secretaries will be wom-
en- in most cases, and there are al
ready between forty and fifty en-
ployed. Miss Margaret F. Eliot, a
Radcliffe graduate, of Exeter, N. H.,
and Miss Helen Wichard, of Wash
ington, are the only American wom-

appearance as we'll as in purpose,
stand for the bringing of gayety
and cheer into the lives Of the
workers."
The girls in each club can join
just as many classes and undertake
as many activities as they desire.
For most of the classes, or for the
use Of the gymnasium, a small fee
is charged. Membership in the club
itself is free and need not entail
even membership in the Y W. c. A.
Sometimes the club members want a
cafeteria, and one is opened, at
which good food may be obtained at
low price.

Conducting a
Department of News

A few years later her success
brought her an offer from the
"Yomiuri Shimbun," the leading
paper in Toxic, and when Miss
Kohashi took charge of woman's
page on that paper it was the first
time in the history of Japan that so
much as an inch in a mans paper
had been devoted to the interest of
women. She is the first woman to
hold a position of authority in a
newspaper office in Japan.
The "Yomiuri Shimbun" is the
first newspaper published in Japan
"Yomiuri Shimbun," literally trans
lated, means "Reading-selling news
PAPER" so called because in the
early days of journalism in Japan
the man who could read stood on a
street corner and read the news out
loud to all who cared to hear. The
"Yomiuri Shimbun" is very con-
servative. That it should be the
first to break down tradition and
establish a precedent by putting a
woman into a position Of authority
Is a most important straw in show
ing which way the wind is blow

A Special Section
For Women
Aside from minor posts, no action
has been taken to enroll women in
the organization, but it is known
that women will be considered for
posts such as those dealing with
health and labor.

but the idea does not seem to meet
with favor among many of the wom-
en- who have fought for womens
rights in the past.
1T is only an excuse to be showed
into a corner" was the condemna-
ton Of a group Of labor women at
recent conference Of delegates
from about ninety-five British or.
CARNATIONS which met in London.
A resolution condemning the idea
came very near passing, but tho
question was left unsettled by a
resolution which called upon the Sec
retariat of the league to submit to
women's organizations any scheme
for a woman's bureau before its
adoption.
The secretariat is the permanent
body Of the league and will be es-
tablished at Geneva, the seat Of the
league. 1t is now proposed to d.
vide it into something like the fol-
lowing heads: Mandataries, legal,
education, press information, health,
political, economic, social, welfare,
labor and women (if women wish
it).
In World
Politics
The argument is that woman's
bureau would act as liaison be-
tween women's organizations and
the league. A woman's section could
serve to stir up the potential power
OF womanhood as factor in inter
national politics-a power which
might otherwise lie dormant, &C
cording to the bureau supporters.
OF course, women's problems will
be dealt with in other sections.
From all that we gather hero in
London men interested in the league
and so far responsible for 1t are
quite prepared to be guided by wom-
ems wishes as to whether or not
there shall be separate woman's
section of the secretariat. British
women's organizations have ap-
pointed standing national commit
tee to gather names of women
qualified for positions, which will be
sent as recommendation to the
British government and the league
of nations. They are wondering
what American women are going
to do.

ARIZONA CROP REPORT
 FOR OCTOBER 1, 1919

The government crop report just
 isued by L. M. Harrison, Arizona
 Field Agent for the U. s. Bureau of
 Crop Estimates shows that Arizona will exceed her 1918 production by a large margin. Increases are forecast in nearly all of the staple crops grown in the state. Cotton promises to ex- ceed last years record crop by 14,0OO bales; wheat, by 132,000 bushels; corn, by 3C0,OO0 bushels; oats, by 100000 bushels; white potatoes, by 100000 bushels; grain sorgums, by 100000 bushels; and beans by 6O,O0O bushels.
 It is gratifying to note that the Nations corn crop came through Sep tember unharmed by excessive frost damage, and promises total yield of 2,9OO,511 bushels. This would be 317,- 900 bushels more than was produced last year. Other crops that show in creases over 1918 are wheat, 1,371,- 900 bushels; buckwheat, 8O8,0OO bu- shels; sweet potatoes, 13,O79,O0O bu- shells; rice 3,s37,O00 bushels; grain sorghums, 6O,OO0,0 900 bushels; peaches 12,358,0 ,00O bushels. Crops showing decrease compared with last year are oats, 319,OO0,OO0 bushels; barley, 58,- O77, ,0O0 bushels; white potatoes, 50,- O36,0O0 bushels; flax, 100000 bush els; apples, 16,911 ,000 bushels; beans, 5,O43,OOO bushels; and cotton, 1,0OO,- 900 bales.

LEARN POULTRY RAISING
 AT HOME FROM J. OF A.

The poultry department of the Uni versity of Arizona has prepared cor respondence course in poultry produc- tion. This course is designed speci- fically to meet the needs of the Ari- zona poultry raisers. The proper methods of housing, feeding and breeding, control of disease and par asites, and the problems of marketing and management are treated in 20 lessons.
 This course should appeal to the ranch wife who cares for small flock of poultry as we'll as to the man or woman who raises or intends to raise poultry on a large scale. Even the city man or woman keeping a few chickens in the back yard to cut down the high cost of living would profit greatly from the course.
 When a group of people in the same community take the course, an extension representative of the poul- try department will visit them from time to time to conduct demonstra- tions in culling, caponizing, etc.
 A circular describing the course in detail may be secured by writing to Prof. F. R. Kenney, University of Arizona, Tucson.

A CALL FOR S0,0OO
 CENSUS ENUMERATORS

The director of the census, Hon. Sam l.. Rogers, announces that 80,- GOO enumerators will be needed to take the next census. The work be- gins on January 2, and will last about two weeks in cities, and a month or more in rural districts. Rates of pay will vary, depending upon the locality and character of the district to be canvassed. The average pay per en- umerator at the census of 1910 was about $70. At this coming census it will probably be not less than $100.
 Active, intelligent, and reliable men and women, not less than IS years of age, are needed for this task" said Director Rogers, land, in sense, this is call for volunteers. The impor- tance of complete and reliable cen sus, especially in these critical times when more than ever before perhaps we need complete data regarding pop ulation, conditions, tendencies, and resources, can hardly be over estima- ted. The reorganization of the social and economic structure and the re- adjustment of international relations necessitated by the War must be based on accurate knowledge if we are to act wisely and deal justly with all classes and all interests. It is hoped, therefore, that the public-spirited en- ergetic people throughout the country will volunteer to act as census en- umerators even though they may not care for the positions so far as the pay is concerned. I should be sorry to think, and I do not believe, that all our patriotism was used up by the War and none left over for public service in times of peace."
 Sam B. Bradner, Supervisor of the Census for the 1st District of Arizona, which includes the counties of Mar icopa, Yavapai, Coconino, Apache, Navajo, Mohave and Yuma, states that he will need about 300 enumer- ators for this district. Application for or requests for application forms should be sent to him on or before October 25. His address is 326 w. Washington St., (Elks Theatre), Phoenix, Arizona. As a test of their fitness for the work, applicants will be required to fill out sample schedule and will be duly notified of the time and place for this test. So far as practical the place selected will be one easily accessible.

BELIEVE kIDNAPPERS HAVE
 CARRIED AWAY SMALL BOY

The mysterious disappearance of George, two and one half year old child belonging to J. H. Asaff and wife, of Superior, Arizona, has been reported to the police by Charles Sad ley, "A North Tenth Street, in whose care the boy had been placed.
 According to several neighbors, two women were seen to take charge of the child while it was playing in the vicinity of Tenth and Adams street about 4 o'clock the afternoon of Oct ober g. The witnesses say they saw the women walk with the child to a wait ing motor car at the corner of Tenth street and Monroe. Before the neigh bors fully grasped the import of the little scene, the automobile had been started and the women and child dis appeared in cloud of dust. Neigh bors said the youngster cried and struggled.
 Little George Asaff was left in the custody of Charles Sadley and wife about six months ago when the moth CT of the boy became too i'll to proper ly care for him. Sadley, being friend of the family, was asked to board the boy until the parents were in better position to care for him.
 The child seemed very we'll satisfied with his new home, according to Sad ley, and neve attempted to run away It is not thought that he became lost
 Sadley communicated with the mother of the child at Superior by telephone. Mrs. Asaaf could give no reason why any one should wish to carry the child away.
 The child has brown hair and brown eyes. The hair is rather straight and parted on the right side.

STATE CATTLE BRANDS
 ARE BEING COLLECTED

Secretary E. w. Stephens, of. the livestock sanitay board, is working steadily on the re-recording of the livestock brands of Arizona. The work is an enormous one, as every brand has to have identification to in sure against duplication. In many cases there has to be special investi- gation on the range to secure evi- dence of the actual ownership of cat tie by which the owner might secure registration of a special brand or mark.
 The old records had 24,00O brands, many of them dead and unused. The new brand book is expected to have many less, though many new brands have been established within the last few years, and many new brands have been offered, for registration. These brands are constantly under the eye of a force of 70 inspectors scattered all over the state, and the laws of Arizona are such that cattle stealing and misbranding now are al- most unknown.
 On the Arizona ranges cattle are feeding on grass that is more than knee deep in many sections that have been drought stricken for several years.
