LESPEDEZA Hay.

Mr.. O.. p Vaughan, Of the Kolola
Springs section in District No. 1, has
had an experience with Lespedeza
hay which is worth reciting for the
benefit Of all Of our sandy land farm
ers. Tie planted an area in Lcspedeza
the past year and he has found it a
most profitable crop, the yield averag-
ing three and a half tons to the acre.
Some acres averaged four and half
tons to the acre. He has just ship
ped a car load Of the legume to the
delta and he received thirty dollars
a ton fob. Columbus. A hundred
dollars an acre from land in the sandy
loan belt shows what can be made on
it from the hay standpoint. Lespedeza
is an especially fine hay and its
growth is increasing m this county.

TEARING DOWN AIRDOME.

The Airdome is singing its swan
song to the tune of the carpenters
hammer.
Here in the gentle breeze of the
summers evenings Columbians en-
joyed the Princess screen offerings
and Sundays the doctrine was ex-
pounded from its platform for union
church services were held there dur
ing the summer period.
Now the structure has been sold
and is being reduced and moved away,
the lumber to serve other purposes.
The Airdome passed into the limbo
of things forgotten with the coming
of modern appliances for picture
shows. First, the picture player
eliminated the orchestra and pictures
at the Airdome would have been fiat
with music, and secondly, modern
ventilators and cooling apparatus
have made the Princess theatre as
comfortable and cool as hot sultry
nights as the opul-air theatre.
Airdomes have gone and the Prin-
cess Airdome on South Market street
has joined the procession.

wOMAN's SUFFRAGE
AMENDMENT.
Starkville, Miss, Dec. Is, 1919.

Starkville, Miss, Dec. Is, 1919.
In reply to the same question put
by several people, the following state.
ment is made by Mrs. B. F. Saunders
Chairman of the Ratification Com
mittee of the Mississippi Woman Suf-
frage Association:
"When the Federal Suffrage
Amendment has been ratified by the
necessary 36 states, 20 of which have
already acted favorably, it becomes
part of the United States Constitu-
ton. The word male" in the State
Constitution does not matter. 1t need
not be removed. No legislative action
is necessary to insure to women their
vote. The Election Law instructs to
prepare ballots for voters, places and
equipment for elections and the same
ballots, places and equipment used by
the men will be used by the women
voters.
"There seems to be tendency to
misunderstanding of the nature of the
Federal Suffrage Amendment. Alarm
lists are predicting trouble through
Federal enforcement. This is totally
as the Amendment will be
put into effect by the states. 1t does
not provide for Federal enforcement,
save that Congress may legislate in
the improbable event that after the
amendment has been ratified by the
required thirty-six states, any state
shall violate it by refusing to permit
to vote solely because they are
"We feel sure that the majority of |
he Legislators Of Mississippi are fair
minded on this and all questions and
hey will want women to enjoy full
Nor will they think it
necessary to make them win it by the
lard work of State Campaign, but
that all men are pro-
ected in their citizenship by the Fed

'ederal Constitution; that all indians
