Firms NOW MAKING PROGRESS
War Has Made Change in Primitive
Methods Of Farming Imperative
in That Country.

Finland is backward in agricul-
tural methods. This is attributed
by some to the lack of mental alert
ness of the farming population but
it would seem that the principal
causes are the harsh climate and a
poor soil. The soil is thin and re-
quires much drainage. This drain
age is now effected by open bitches,
which are serious obstacle to the
use Of agricultural machinery. Up
to the beginning Of the war, with
Russia's eyer-present rich supply Of
farm products to be cheaply drawn
upon, there was little incentive to
the extension Of the farming area
or to the use of modern methods of
agriculture. Now, however, with
Russia cut off and with farm prod
ucts high priced as result Of the
war, the margin Of profit is more IA
vorable to the Finnish farmer, who
is accordingly preparing to bring
more land under cultivation and
looking to modern machines and
methods to increase his production.

WOMEN GET OLD MANUSCRIPT
Historical Document, Dear to suffra
psts, Restored to Massachusetts
maternal Association.

Mrs. George Conway Of Helena,
Mont, recently .unearthed a missing
historical document, dear to suffra-
gists, which for many years has been
in her possession.
The document is the original
manuscript of the constitution of
Long Meadows (Mass.) Maternal
association, which has been missing
for 81 years.
This is said to be the oldest as
ISOLATION Of women, to secure suf-
frage, in America. Mrs. Conway
read that the manuscript was being
sought. She recalled that herr
grandmother, Experience Cotton
Hunt, had given her, on her death
bed, an old manuscript, which she
greatly cherished. Investigation re-
vealed that the manuscript was that
sought by the Long Meadows asso-
citation.
Mrs. Hunt at one time was resi-
dent Of Long Meadows, and while
resident there was an officer Of the
association, at which time the docu-
ment came into her possession.
Mrs. Conway has presented it to
the association.
