He is one of the staff of organizers of the Eagles, a fine orator and has done considerable to advance the cause of Eagledom throughout the country the last few years. He will stop III two or three Connecticut cities on his visit to the east, Bridgeport being one of them
 The local aerie is out to get 5000 new members. The campaign is but two weeks old and the membe are elated over the returns. Members o1 the aerie are looking forward with much interest to the class initiatio on November 2S, and many out-of town eagles are expected here to en joy the big program.

WOMAN AS
 JUDGE IN OHIO
By w. J. HUSKE, International News Service Staff Cor reSnOndcrlt


 Cleveland, Nov. 20-With the cleo ton returns counted, it has been de cided that Cuyahoga county will have. after January 1 next a woman as one mon Pleas, and to the metropolis of Ohio goes the distinction of having been the first community in the Unit ed States to elect woman to a jul dicia1 position of this importance.
 The new judge-Judge Florence L. Allen, if you please, when the new year begins-wil1 be one of eight eight judges to administer civil and criminal law in this county. Whether or not she will be assigned special duties is as yet undetermined, but men who have tested her ability in the trial courts, and in counsel say that she is as well qualified to per form the duties that fall to judge that work.
 She is now serving as assistant to the county prosecuting attorney, and it was the record made there that | caused her candidacy to appeal to men and women alike.
 ] Endorsed ~y the Democratic pri- maries as one of the party candi- | dates, the federation of women S | clubs here made her fight their own and worked unceasingly to bring about her election. Prominent mem bers of the bar added their endorse ment, and it was not surprising thai Slle leu tIe llSI Ol n1He CdnuldaIeS al the voting November 2, being more i than 1000 votes ahead of the next highest candidate, and polling a clea1 majority of all the votes cast in Guy ahoga county.
 | Now that she has been elected i begun agitation for the establishment of a Court of Domestic Relations within the Common Pleas Court witt Judge Allen as the presiding judge
 
 matters said a prominent Cleve land club woman in discussing tht proposal. The laws governing do mestic relations have been writer ginning of time. Legislatures, witt the growing power of women in indus try have given some response t women's demands, but the court male sex-the holy of holies int which woman could not enter.
 Now that we have a woman ol the bench she should be assigned t. try the matters in which womel [ have ar especial interest. I believ that under this plan we will hay more happy homes, less divorces ant H more intelligent application of tn laws that most vitally affect the live and happiness of people.
 "A woman judge will not be con cerned with precedent so much a with right
 Miss Allen herself takes the hon ors she has won with becoming mod esty. Still young-she is only thir ty-four-she had been engaged for number of years in general law prac tice here, when the county prose cutting attorney appointed her an as sistant about year ago. She wa given general assignment work an tried many important cases in tn criminal courts and her record < convictions is as high as that of an of those charged with the enforce ment of the law upon the evidence

The POTATO CROP
A Very Timely And Practic-
al Artic e On POtatOe Dis
eases And Seed Ce, tifica-
ton.

The potatoe crop of the States cf
Ohio during the past ten years has
amounted to slightly over 10,000,000I
bushels annually. This amount is
produced On approximately 122,600
acres, making the average produc-
ton a little over 50 bushels per acre.
Judged by the standards of the
successful potatoe grower, this is a
very low yield and clearly indicates
that many acres are planted each
cultivating and harvesting.
While a considerable part of the
responsibility for these low yields
may reasonably be charged to ''run
out" seed, poor soil and lack of at
tention to cultivation and insect
attack, there still remains a large
portion that must be attributed to
the presence of disease, either of
the growing plants, or of the tubers.
The toll taken by these diseases is
at times enormous, particularly in
seasons when the crop is ravaged by
late blight.
Many of the diseases to which the
potatoe is subject destroy but a
small portion of the crop each year
If in the aggregate these diseases
reduce the production by but 10 pei
cent which is a very conservative es-
innate, the losses from this source
would amount to 100000 bushels
annually.
These limiting diseases may usu
ally be either wholly or in part eli
minated bv careful selection in the
field and the rigouous roguing out
of all diseased plants before harves

plants.
We have for a long time been yer!
careful in selecting our seed CORR
as to type, and terminating powe
and mere recently going to the stand
ing stalk for individuality and w
have paid fancy prices, sometime
wisely, for "Pedigreed Seed" Q
wheat and oats, but comparitivel,
little has been done as vet in tn
Improvement, except by a few spe
cialists of potatoes for seed. Tn
practice is far too common on tn
average farm of putting the potatoe
in the bin in the Fall. allowing tn
good wife to select the best for tn
table all winter and using what
left in bottom Of the bin for see
in the spring. Is it any wonder tha
varieties run out under such treat
ment?
Never before in the history of tn
world has the value of the potato
as food for man, been more thoroug
" appreciated than during the pas
five years. This appreciation of ii
hioh position among food plants an
of the possibilities of increasing tn
annual yield through the eliminatio
Of infected seed stock, is seen in til
efforts that have been made in seve1
al States toward improvement by sc
nction. through inspection and cert
fication.
Some form of seed potatoe certit
cation has been inaugurated IN tt
states of California, Colorado, Idah
Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Ne
York. Vermont and Wisconsin.
A beginning was made in seed p
tatoe certifcation in this state

4 year ago last summer.
A healthy rivalry in the produ
ton of clean seed that has alreac
appeared among careful growers,
sure to prove a great benefit to tt
potatoe industry of the state.
