Favorable wea therrwin be necessary
during the next month to protect corn
hereabouts from damage by frost, as
most of the corn is only in the roast

for some time. A good yield is indi-

Shock threshing in this locality Is

ton of about ten per cent Of the farm
ers, who still have their ,threshing to
do. Much Of the grain is being held
on the farms because of the unsatis-

Notwithstanding the fact that def
cient temperature, sunshine and rain

crops, an abundant yield Of farm pro-
luce is expected this year.

To Fool Auto Thieves.

A good device for puZ2ling the auto
mobile thief is made as follows: Re
move the regular terminal from the end
of the ignition wire and procure an
extra one. One of these was clamped
around a piece of brass tubing and the
other around similar piece Of tubing
of hard rubber. The inside Of each
tube was threaded with small tap.
The end of the wire was placed inside
a yet smaller piece of brass tubing and
a little solder was poured in to make
a good connection. This piece Of brass
tubing was very slightly larger than
the holes in the two terminals. and
was threaded on the outside, so as to
screw into the holes in the two termt-
mails. In ordinary use, the terminal
with the brass lining is screwed on the
end of the wire and used In the regular
manner. When the car is to be locked
the hood is raised, the brass terminal Is
removed and the rubber lined one Is
screwed into its place. The hard rub

Lands Eight Pound Pickerel.

Ole Soppeland landed an eight-pound
pickerel one day last week at Hum
boldt, after fight that started when
the big fish took the bait and ended
in a rough-and-tumble on the bank
where the fish tore loose from the hook
and started to jump back to the water,
and Ole interrupted his progress. In
the melee on the bank the fish got Ole's
fingers in its mouth and because of the
jagged hooks of teeth there was consid-
cradle damage done before the fingers
could be eXtricated. Therefore there
was plenty of blood and other evidence
of the fight when the fish was at last
subducd 1t was grand fish, and
worth the fight.

100000 IOWA
WOMEN TO Vote
Expect Additional Number
of Voters to Push Total
Ballot up to
725,000.
PARTIES ORGANIZED
There are ga, 0O8 Women in
Iowa Eligible to
Vote.
PARTIES ORGANIZED

Iowa women, along with the women
in all of the other states in the union,
will enjoy all of the voting rights
which the men now have, inasmuch as
the necessary twO-thirds Of the states
lin the union have ratified the woman
suffrage amendment.
The Iowa women can go to the regis
tration booths this fall on the three
registration days before the general
election and get their names on the
polling books along with those of the
men. Every voter has to register presi
Dental year and this year there will
be no distinction between the men and
women voters. The women will not
have separate books, but their names
will be listed on the same book as is
used for the men, nor will there be any
other distinction between the men and
women voters.
Census figures give 664,OOs women
in Iowa eligible to vote and 6S4, 94O
men voters. However, the total vote
cast ut the elections when the heaviest
votes have been pOlled show that more
than 100000 men eligible to vote do not
go to the polls in this state.
In 1915, when there was heavy vote
polled for governor, the total vote cast
for both the republican and democrat
lie nominees was 516947. In fact, this
was the heaviest vote ever recorded in
the state So it is estimated that the
combined vote of both men and women
this fall is not likely to exceed 1885,
600 in Iowa.
However, the women's republican
organization in this state, as directed
by Mrs. Frank DOdson, is thorough, so
thorough in fact, that it has been COM
plimented by the national committee.
The women's democratic organization,

ERAN PASTORS?
Matter of Aid for Superan-
nuated Ministers to
Come up at Synod
Meeting.
PLANNING BIG FUND,
Also Plan to Systematically
7 Increase Pastors
Salaries.
PLANNING BIG FUND.

Adequate provision for superanuated
pastors will be one Of the important
topics of discussion at the twenty
eighth triennial convention of the Lu-
theran Synod of Iowa and other states,
which opens at Waverly, Aug. %.
The Lutheran church in determining
pastors salaries has never followed the
principle of value rendered, but Of
need. 1t has held to the belief that
Christianity expects it's servants to
work for the sake of the Masters king
dom, without any regard to the remun-
Grafton which they receive and not to
think of the future, but to depend on
the free will gifts of congregations to
provide for the days when they can no
more work SO far, it is stated, this
principle has worked out satisfactorily.
However, there is growing belief that
provision for retired ministers ought to
be carried on Systematically and on n
business basis.
To Establish Fund.
1t is planned to establish fund OF
Ave hundred thousand dollars to pro-
vide pensions for the retired pastors of
the synod. A great deal Of discussion
is expected before the plan will final
ly be ratified. G. A. GrOssman, OF
Wayerly, one Of the leading figures in
the synod, is one of the main agita-
tors for this pension fund.
Intimately connected with the pro-
posed plan Of providing for superan-
nuated pastors is the plan of systema-
tically increasing the salaries OF pas
tors, The other national Lutheran
bodies which have met so far this year,
the Augustana Synod and the Synod
of Missouri, Ohio and other states,
have made provision to fix the mini
mum salaries of pastor far above
previous standards. The Augustana
Synod went on record for minimum
salary of $500 per year and free par
sonage. 1t is stated that good deal
of agitation has been carried on with
in the Iowa synod already in this mat
ter and in many sections salaries have
been increased handsomely. 1t is plan
ned, however, to bring behind the
sporadic agitation for adequate pastors
the united sentiment and decl-
sion of the national body.
