First Georgia Women
Are Elected To Vestry

ATLANTA, May 25.-Three wo-
men were chosen members of the
vestry of the Episcopal church of the
Holy Comforter in a meeting of the
parish just held in Atlanta. The lit
tie Episcopal church holds the first
women to vestry in the DIOCESE.
Election of women to that office was
sanctioned at the diocesan council in
Griffin last week.
Bishop Mikel said the a,tion of
the Diocese of Atlanta in striking
from the canon the word male" thus
giving to women equal right in par
ish operation, placed Georgia among
the first states to give church fran
chise to women.

Washington Discovers the Real Hughes

beyond question, the member of
ID the cabinet most talked about at
Washington is Charles E. Hughes, sec
rotary of state. In fact there is a
distinct Hughes wave, and remote in
deed from the centers of power and
of gossip is the place in official or
social Washington that has not felt
the influence of this wave.
1t is the story of two Hugheses-hOw
one has Supplanted the other in the
popular mind.
The Hughes, personality, as it stands
out today, took official Washington
completely by surprise. The unfail-
ing smile, the hearty handshake, frank

culating, austere, self-centered man

BEAUTY CULTURE HINTS

There is real common sense in jusE
noticing whether the hair is well kept
to judge of a woman's neatness, or
good taste. If you are one of the few
who try to make the most of your
hair, remember that it is not advisable
to wash the hair with any cleanser
made for all purposes, but always use
some good shampoo. You can enjoy
the very best by getting some canthrox
from your druggist, dissolve tea
spoonful in a cup of hot water. This.
makes a full cup of shampoo liquid
enough so it is easy to apply it to al1
the hair instead of just the top of the
head. Dandruff, excess oil, and dirt are
dissolved and entirely disappear. Your
hair will be so fluffy that it will look
much heavier than it is. Its luster and
softness will also delight you, while
the stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth. Send &c
to cover the postage for free trial pack

QUALITIES OF FARM. FENCES
Made to Turn All Stock Without
lnjuring Them.

Farm fences should combine two
qualities--service and economy-says
the United States Department of
Agriculture. To give satisfactory
service the fence must be constructed
so as to turn. all kinds of stock with
out injuring them. To be economical
it must be built as cheaply as is con-
sistent with durability. The fence that
is erected at low initial cost is not
necessarily economical, for it may be
so short that it will be very expen-
sive in the end.
The cost of maintaining farm
fence is determined by such factors
as interest, repairs, and depreciation
on the fence itself, interest on the
value of land rendered unusable, and
the expense of keeping down weeds.
The cost of repairs and the annual
depreciation depend largely on the
construction. If fence is made of
a cheap grade of material and is
cheapIy constructed it will need fire.
quent repair and will be short lived.
Such fence will have high repair
and depreciation charge, which in
most cases will more than counter
balance the increased investment cost
that the erection of more substantial
fence would require. If fence is
made of good materials and is properly
built its repair and depreciation
charges should be very low.
The efficiency of a fence depends
upon the quality of wire and posts
used and upon the manner of con-
struction.

South spinach can be planted in Oc-
tober and remain in the open ground
all winter
For growing spinach in the come
garden bed about feet in width and
% or 80 feet in length should be spad-
ed and a quantity of well-rotted ma
nure worked into the top 3 inches Of
soil. Three pounds of commercial fer
tilizer should also be scattered over
the surface and well worked into the
soil. Six or eight ounces of seed will
be sufficient for this space. Sow in
little drills or burrows running length
wise of the bed, the rows to be about
6 or inches apart. The seed should
be covered II inch deep and the soil
slightly firmed over it. Watering
may be necessary if the weather
should be extremely dry following the
planting Of the spinach seed.
Spinach grows quickly and requires
very little cultivation, except to loosen
the soil trifie between the rows and
keep weeds from getting a start. If
the plants are too thick-that IS,
crowd each other-they can be thinned
out and those removed in thinning
cooked for green's. The plants left will
then have room to grow larger. Spin
ach is very desirable as an early spring
green, as it contains plenty of iron and
other mineral matter. 1t should al
ways be used while young and tender.

Panama Tolls Will Cause Big Debate

ships, but Senator Borah thinks that
in view of the opposition it will be
easier to put through a bill applying
to cOastwise ships only.
Senators Borah, Knox and most 9TH
er advocates of toll exemption hold
that such legislation would not be in
contravention of the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty with Great Britain, under
which the United States built the
canal. They contend that the provi-
sion for equal passage terms to the
ships of all nations applies only to
the ships of all nations other than the
United States.
President Harding favors toll eXemp-
ton, but has indicated that it should
be achieved through a new under
standing with Great Britain.
Last year the canal earned S10,295,-
362 in tolls, of which $4,724, 494 was
paid by 1,2S1 American ships; $3,357,
357 by S67 British ships; $5S3,643 by
10 Japanese ships, and SAL, 400 by
Ill Norwegian ships. A total of 2,S14
vessels, representing more than Is ma
tons, passed through the canal.

The answer is that it should be Gull
tivated often enough to keep down
weeds and to maintain constantly a
loose soil mulch until the corn has
attained its growth. A greater num-
Der Of civilizations will be necessary
when rains at intervals of about a
week cause the surface soil to run to-
gether and crust. This crust must be
broken and the soil mulch restored,
or evaporation will soon rob the soil
Of much of it's moisture. An essential
object of cultivation Is to restore the
soil mulch as soon after a rain as the
condition of the ground will permit
If the ground becomes hard and
baked dry the crop will suffer great
ly and when cultivated the dirt will
break up into clods.
Many crops are cut short by stop
ping the cultivation because the corn
is too tall for use of two-horse cul-
tivator. II the condition of the soil
demands it, shallow cultivation should
continue, even though the corn is tas-
selling. Blocks nailed to the handles
will protect the hands from the corn
blades. Iron mowing-machine wheels
dragged between the rows will some
times greatly benefit the crop.
Saving of Labor.
With a good riding or walking dou-
BILE cultivator one man can cultivate
as many acres as two men with one
horse cultivators. This saving of la
Dor is worth consideration. With a
properly constructed wheeled cultiva-
tor, covering two rows at a time, one
man has often cultivated 15 acres per
day.
The shovels with which it is best to
equip either single or double cultiva-
tors must be determined by the kind
of soil, the size of the corn, and size
and nature of growth of weeds to be
destroyed. For sandy land sweeps
are In great favor, and vary from 6
to 80 inches in width. The sweep
scrapes along through the soil at
depth of 2 to 8 inches, cutting off
weeds and allowing surface soil to
pass over them, falling level and fat
behind the cultivator
