League Issue Prominent In Dauphln
and Adjoining Counties
Harrisburg, Pa, Nov. 2.--Women
voters appeared In great numbers early
around the polls In Harrisburg today.
It was reported that in nearly every
precinct two women had voted to every
man in the first four hours of the poll
ing.
While Dauphin county Is Republi-
can stronghold and the big bulk Of the
women have been reported as safely Re-
publican, there were some misgivings
today concerning the League Of Ma
tions issue. The same Is applicable TO
cumberland and Lebanon, which, with
Dauphin, comprise the Eighteenth Con-
gressional district. The injection of the
league as the big issue has been due to
the personal rivalry between Lieuten-
ant Governor Edward Il. Beidleman and
Vance G. Mccormick, former Demo-
cratic national chairman. each Of
whom is credited with entertaining the
gubernatorial bee.
Both have been jockeyins for place,
both want to capture the women vote.
They have followed each other all over
the district giving their views on the
league.
With the exception Of the railroad
workers who are reported to be leaning
toward Cox. the male vote in Dauphiu
Is Republican, but there is some doubt
as to how the women will vote to.

eide the fate Of the leadership Of Nc

EARLY FLOWING OR LISTING
FOR WHEAT

From twelve-years results at the
Fort Hays Experiment Station it ap-
pears that early fall blowing Or list
ing gives best wheat yields. Records
kept from 1908 to 1919 show that
late fall blowing yields 81 bushels
per acre, early fall blowing yields
1877 bushels per acre, early fall list
ing and working down ridges later
yields 16 bushels per acre.
This will also control the Hessian
fly to quite and extent as it has been
shown that when the ground is plowed
early only about one of every twenty
flies energies from the f1axseed and
when listed early and afterwards
worked down only two out of twenty
flies emerge.
