DUCHESS OF MARLBOROUGH, a:a>. ~
.,s..x,. AMERICAN, LEADS ENGLISH
WOMENSs SOCIAL REFORMS

AN American woman, she that was
ConS,lelo Vanderbilt now Duchess Of
Marlborough, is leading English women
in social and political reform party
The duchess IS president of the
Women's Municipal party of London
and in her official capacity has just
announced Il program which her party
will support III the municipal elections
to be held by the London county coun-
Gil in March.
Undismayed by the recent failure
Of English women to win i'll parlimen-
tary elections the women Of the NUM-
cipal party are already choosing can-
didateS to stand for election as repre-
sentatives on the various boards, com
mittees and councils which govern Lon
don's life.
Here is the statement Of the Wo-
mems Municipal party program just
issued by the duchess: ...
CAS- elected representatives we are
today considering the need for women
in local government and it is only
necessary to remind you that the recon-
struction Of our social, industrial and
cronomic system will involve:
1. The settlement of woman's po-
sition in industry and as wage
Garner. l.. .st.s
2. The rebuilding of our poor law
and the administration of relief on
humane and self-respecting lines. ~
8. The control and building Of hous.
ing schemes OH an unprecedented scale
4. The establishment of municipal
schemes for maternity and child-wel.

| DJ,- The administration of the vast
educational program just become law
''Our most vital need at the present
moment is the provision Of decent and
pleasant homes for every class Of work
er in the community, but more espec
tally for the working man with large
family, for whom at the present, abso
lutely no accommodation is made al
rents within his means. /
"The London county council has
agreed to spend $780, 900 during the
next seven years on housing schemes
in London. Surely women must have
voice on the councils that are to de
eide the locality, the building and the
arrangement Of their future homes! -
1--WE must realize that the complete
ment and the direct issue of all social
work is to be found in good admins
tration, and that we want devoted and
unselfish women in local government
just as much as in social work. Els
I pecially now when charity is gradually
being superseded by state aid, when
such schemes as pensions for mothers
unemployment insurance and home as.
sistance are being brought FORWARD
and the spirit of the times denotes q
need for social adjustment which is
not found in personal charity so much
as in the service of the community.
i 1T is more democratic conception
of social ethics which is prompting wo
men to take up the exacting. duties Of
public life, and it is in the service o.
Of community that we can put our best
work"

Should the state levy 80 to-five mills,

A farmer who paid $40 in state tax
last year, on his land, will pay so
this year. A farmer who had a horse
assessed at $40 last year will have the
same animal assessed at $50 this
year. Owners of bank stock will pay
five times as much in taxes as they
did a year ago; railways will pay 1888
times as much as they did last year.
State Auditor Kositzky is inclined
to doubt whether the four-mill levy
for state purposes, even on the vastly
increased assessed valuation brought
about through the leagues reclassi-
fication, will suffice to meet expendi-

SMUT COST THE FARMERS
Sl36.000,000 LAST YEAR
Only Way to Be Sure You're Not
Sowing Smut is to Treat Seed

According to the United States
Department of Agriculture the farm
ers in the United States lost S50,0o0,-
900 worth of wheat and $50, ZOO, 900 of
oats from smut alone last year." says
James Godkin, of the State Agricul-
tural College. "Colorado's annual loss
in the past has amounted to a million
dollars and it may be greater this
coming season, but we sincerely hope
that it will be less than it has ever
been before. How much of this sum
are you losing?
Those who insured against loss by
using simple, inexpensive treat
mcnt saved S32, 100000 worth of oats
and wheat. Have you treated the
grain you are now sowing?
Remember that you cannot know
when you sow your grain how much
smut there will be in it or how many
hundreds of dollars you will lose un-
less all of your seed is carefully
treated. 1t has been shown by sever
al states that man can save as much
food in one hour by treating seed oats
for smut as he can produce in As hours
by growing oats.

are going to plant should be sure to

TWO THEORIES IN TURNING,
CATTLE OUT TO GRASS

Field and Farm
There are two theories in regard
to the proper time OF turning cattle
out to spring grass, each of which
seems based on good reasons. That
one generally advocated is TO keep
the stock in the corral on the same
food as given during the winter
months until the pasture or range is
well along and able 10 furnish an
abundance of nutritious grass. Often
when the stool. is turned out, the ra-
tons of the home ranch are cut OF at
once. The other system is to turn 10
pasture just as soon as the grass he
gins TO shoot, when the sparse blades
are watery and furnish very little
nutriment. The lack Of substance in
the pasture forces the stock TO rely
mainly on what is obtained in the
feed lot to satisfy hunger. The first
grass is watery and has very little
nutrimcnt, but has its effect on the
digestive system. and gradually pre-
pares the animal for the change from
dry alfalfa TO grass. 1t is fact that
stock often shrink badly when chang
ed from hay to grass, and the practice
Of early turning out, at the time keep
ing up regular feeding, is better than
holding the cattle longer and then
turning them out to fun grazing. If
stock is turned out early, let food in
abundance be offered at the corral.
1t is troublesome, of course, to bring
them back each might, yet it is the
little attentions like these that pay.
Some cattle get in the habit when
hay-fed to always stick around the
racks instead of going out to hunt for
themselves. Other cattle are often
not fed enough and will take to the
barren hillsides any day in winter to
get few bites of cured grass and
thus help out the meager bill of fare,
In many places we had such short
growth of grass last season that prac-
tically nothing is left and this makes
it poor picking for turned-out cattle

WHAT MEANS THIS
RANK HERESY?

MontroSe Enterprise:
There is a great deal of stir about
lands for the returning soldier and
sailor, and well there may be. This
government cannot afford to have the
boys come home and find that they
are out in the cold, without land on
.ch 10 make homes. Secretary
Lane proposes to reclaim western land
by irrigation. and southern land by
drainage, and cutover land by stump
pulling and so on, all good schemes,
and worthy of being tried out. But
there are lot Of fine lands in all this
western country that need no reclaim
ing or drainage, to make them fit for
homes. These are the lands in the
forest reserves. Thousands and thous-
ands of acres of good homes, good pas
turr lands and good cropping lands
are in the reserves, ready for homes,
but the trouble seems to be TO get
them listed so the boys can make FL
ings and homes on them. These lands
are exactly suited to our western sol
der boys, as they are such lands as
should be- taken in connection with
stock raising, and are rich lands and
in the open, and in exceedingly health
ful locations. As stated. the trouble
is 70 get them thrown open for fling.
The forest officials reserve the right
to say what land may be taken and
what may not, and seem 70 hold fast
to lands that applicants feel sure VIII
make good homes and are willing to
homestead If given q chance. II the
forestry department would look at
this matter a. the Secretary OF tn In
terror looks at it. as matter of vital
interest to the nation and to the re-
turned soldiers and sailors. half OF the
forest reserves could rs well b. listed
as not, and homes established thereon.
However, it is likely that if such 4
thing is attempted it ought to be tip
ulated that the boys are to have the
first chance ut these lands, others De-
ing made to wait.
/ Larry Finch wants to know what
we are doing for the returning sol
der boys, and answering his own
question says: Nothing" Then he,
Us n stockman well acquainted with
/ forost reserves and the lands there
in, having owned large ranches there
,for many years, joins in advising that
the forest reserves ought to be open
ed 20 the boys, and he is right. Let
e azing lands which can be utilized
for farms, be thrown open, and let the
bo.s be the judges.
