WYOMING A PIONEER.
The First State to Grant Suffrage
to Women.
IN the Editor Of ,rhe Star.

To the Editor Of The Star:
In your issue of September IA there
appeared an editorial under the title
lof Let Connecticut Ratify.". The edi-
torial that in twenty states the ques-
Ification by the Legislature of Connec-
itisut of the woman'S suffrage
1t is stated in this edi-
ltorial that in twenty state he ques-
ton OF women voting remains in doubt
on account of the action in Tennes-
see, due to the fact that there has
been no state enactment granting the
right to vote to women in these states.
/ note that Wyoming is included in
that list, and it is very evident that
the writer of this editorial is not
very well acquainted with the history
| of suffrage in Wyoming. Women
were granted the right to vote in
wyoming by the first territorial leg
islature in 1869, and when the state
constitution was adopted and Wyo-
ming was admitted into the Union in
1880 it was admitted giving women
equal rights with men. wyoming
was not only the first territory but
the first state to grant the right to
vote to women, and to include Wyo-
ming in the list of states where
women might not have the right to
vote at the coming election is GER
tainly a mistake.

PROPOSES PLAN
TOAIDCOUN'TRY
MANAGER KAsELAck OF RICH
LAND FARMS BELIEVES CO.
OPERATIVE SELLING WOULD
HELP FARMERS.

That an Escambia farmers CO.
oneraffve society for the purpose Of
Icc-operative selling ana marketing Of
vac-eta bles, Strawberries, etc, would
be the means of enriching Ge whole
county. is the belief of e Kaselack,
manager of the Richland farms. Mr..
Kaselack says the farmers should
combine, hire a sure-enough business
manager and go into the sweet potato,
rice and strawberry raising game on
scientific lines
Explaining his idea to The Journal
YES brday, Mr.. KaseIack said that
West Florida soil, soil texture. climate
and location is ideal for the business.
It's growing season is long. he said,
and yet it's crops would be ready for
the market just when the demand is
grea test. After the South Florida
crops have passed and before the
Carolina season has arrived, Mr..
Kaselack says. there is an interval
when the demand is great and the
supply limited.
In developing his idea he said % or
90 farmers could combine. grow crops
on a definitely arranged plan, sell
the crops through a central organiza-
tion and get rich. He believes me
venture would be so successful that
it would attract a large number of
agriculturists TO West Florida.
According 10 Mr.. Kaselack there is
no trouble in growing crops in West
Florida, for the man who knows how,
the whole trouble being that there
is no market. Mr.. Kase.ack says the
market exists. but a single farmer
esnnot afford to ship MS produce,
but that if % or 80 farmers combined
and grew, say ten carloads OF straw
berries, forty of SWEEP potatoes, etc.
all sold through a single organiza ion,
the cost of selling and transporta-
ton would fall lightly on each mem
Der.
Mr.. Kaselaclx's idea also includes
the aIloting of what crops should be
grown by the various farmers. so that
the local market could have con-
slant supply.
He believes also that a cooperative
storage and drying house for vege-
tables could be profitably operated,
whereas an individual farmer canno1
afford the initial cost.
In putting the idea into practical
form, Mr. Kaselack believes the
chamber OF commerce should back
the plan and form stock company
with a capital of abou: $4,000. A
competent business manager, who
thoroughly understands shipping and
marketing methods, should be hired.
This man, Mr.. Kaselack says. should
be a man capable of earning s5.eG a
year. He could be hired for $4,000 to
start. and if he had the goods could
make himself worth $4,000 and get it.
volunteer effort will never put it
over" Mr.. Kaselack said. TT must he
a proposition worth giving a mans
whole time to and the man who holds
down the job must be worth having"
