WOMEN ARE To
CLEAN UP ALL VICE

TAMPA, Fla, June 1S.-Five hundred
Tampa women have formed the
woman's Protective league and say
they propose to clean up organized vice
by direct action--that they propose to
undermine its support.
BY the establishment of a sort of
moral credit bureau this organization
proposes to furnish any woman a con
fidential report on the double life OF
her husband IL she wants one. The
inquirer does not even need to give her
own name In making the inquiry; she
may designate a postoffice box address
or any place where an agent of the
league may deposit the report on its
investigation, Organizers of the bureau
say that 70 of their number have
pledged to do the INVESTIGATING work
in the open while the remainder will
work in secret.
80 many have such old reprobates
for husbands" said one of the chiefs,
they can't work openly because these
husbands won't let them. Therefore
they will work secretly" The theory OF
the league Is that II a mar has not been
walking the. straight and narrow path
one OF the 500 will know about it--or
at least can find out.

HOT WEATHER PROVES
Fl BIG AID TO COTTON

The past week of hot, sunny weather
has worked wonderful improvement In
crops in the tri-state territory. accord
ing to officials of the Chamber OF Com
nerce farm bureau. 1t Ii the first
period OF the season that the cotton
has evidenced any real rapid growth,
declared officials.
The farmers are said to be taking
full advantage of the opportunity to
free their cotton and corn from the
grass. 1t lie surprising, bureau officials
say, how clean ONE fields have been
made. The loss to cotton and corn from
grass has been much less than was
anticipated during the p~rotracted period
Of rain. Some OF the corn and cotton
is too wrapped up In grass to be saved,
but most OF 1t will be redeemed, it is
believed.
The farmers are advised to thin out
their corr where II has become yellow
and to apply nitrate Of soda. This will
bring out many fields which have been
damaged by the rains, but there win be
others, of course, which are damaged
to such an extent that IL will be
cheaper to pillow up and replant with
corn.
A great deal Of hay is being saved
which appeared would be lost, and the
farmers are now able to get at their
wheat cutting in earnest.
The attitude OF the farmers In the
t~erritoy lie said TO be decidedly more
hopeful all around than 1t was a week
ago.

Physicans state that the time of

advisable for users of hydrant water

as matter Of precaution. This is
the advice given by the health de-

This is done where the citizens
use drinking and cooking water di-
rect from the city water works sys-

have the water boiled that comes
from cisterns which have not been
cleaned for some time. Physicians
say this is preventative of typhoid
