As a practical farmer whose child

problems of the farmer at first hand.

Women Have Vote

Under the law of Missouri the
women of this state have the
right to vote for presidential
electors.
Many are under the impression
that since the constitutional
amendment has not been and
perhaps never will be, ratified,
that they are not entitled to vote
and therefore are giving the
election Tuesday no attention
but they should avail themselves
of one chance to mix in the rot
ten game of politics, even tho
but slightly, in this grand old
state.
