the interests of women, and thes Hogers citizenship bill is one of the six.
 The league does not know -~When congress will get to these bills. There is reason to believe that congress will do little besides settle approPflauohs and routine matters at the present ses sion. But remembering now loLs Ie took to get the suffrage amendment through. fhe women are not dtscour- apad They have a more forCeful ar gument in the vote than they ever had in tears. smiles or simple appeals 10 the congressional sense of fair play. A new citizenship law will come, IheF know that. What they are trying 10 do is to hasten the last days or the old discriminations which work hard- ship and sometimes suffering on Amer ican-born women.
 International Marriages The existing discrimination, so far as citizenship is concerned, affects only married women, but there have been a great many of these. No one seems l to know exactly how many American | girls marry foreigners. 1t has been estimated that since the war z0,0oo alien women have become Americans 1 by marrying American men, There ls' no doubt, a similar number Of Amer 1 ican women who have lost their cltl- l

 Tnez Mflholland Boissevain, the we'll

 other alien she can not follow her
 profession so long as she remains Tn this country The same proh1oltion
 applies in many states to school teach-
 ing, and fin some places the alien may
 not hold property.
 This obviously works harasnlp on
 the married woman whose nuseana i haupens to be a foreigner who has nor

alization laws already provided that an American man marrying Mexican girl thereby conferred on her the full American citizenship. The new law added to this decree that an American woman marrying a Mexican, or any other foreigner, became subject Of his country This act of 1907 was in accordance with common law and most of the state courts and congress doubt less thought that the controversy was settled forever.
 But even then, women were begin ming to demand a place in business | life, and the limitations set by the law were impressed forcibly upon them. It was no use bringing up individual cases in court, for the act was unmis- 1 takably clear. Women affected by the law of 1907 have protested in increas- l ing numbers ever since 1t was written, but nobody paid much attention, even during the war, when a number of American girls lost their property and their homes and were in general treat ed as enemy aliens.
 But now, with the power of the vote
 back of them, women's organizations
 have begun to work for a new law.
 Both the big political parties prom
 ised independent citizenship in their

 politicians. Heretofore, platform promises haven't meant much. Ws

 Two Bills Offered
 Two bills have been drafted. one bs
 Representative Rogers of Massachu-
 setts, which leaves the citizenship o ' an American woman the same afte
 marriage to a foreigner as before. s' | long as she retains her residence il | this country. The bill also makes ] 1 necessary for the alien woman marry Q ing an American man to take out nat : uralization papers if she is to becom 0 a citizen of this country. By the pres D ent naturalization law it Is fmpossibl : for a married woman to take out nat V uralization papers. Her citizenship n automatically decided. except in feV IT instances when congress has passe - special bills restoring American Dor n 1 women to citizenship at their reques 1T for some particular reason.
 lll The other bill before congress wa IF introduced by Representative Anthon
 of Kansas, a nephew of the famou
 Susan B Anthony. Representativ
 Anthonv's bill would allow America
 women now married to aliens in tn
 United States to regain their citizen
 ship by legal procedure. For tho flu
 ture. the bill provides independent cit Ia zenship for women
 ,a A number of women's organization ,e are backing these bills. The Daughter
 of the American Revolution recent
 passed a resolution favoring the pass o age of one of them.
 ' The National Womans Party is als "a interested in the proposed reform s Until it's convention in February, how ;s ever, the party can not take up ar 'n new activities Its reason for eNsi n ence was to work for the suffras i- amendment. and it will be for the COT s vention to decide whether the party i, to be dissolved or for what aims ,e will exist in the future

Sprina Dresses

Concrete evidence of a return to normal is shown In the spring offerings of dresses and costumes ac cordnE to a statement made by the Associated Dress Industries of America. Even casual glance through the opening prices of these garments TOT girls and women reveals decided purpose on the part of the manufacturers the demand of the public for value and lower prices says the state ment.
 eNhen we consider low figures shown for all grades of garments" it continues. i've might in- fer questions of quality and style have been subjected to only second thought. But this is not the case. An effort has been made through the As- sociated Dress Industries of America, comprising members in every important market, to impress upon the entire industry the necessity of producing the best possible garment to yield the lowest possible reasonable profit The manufacturers have responded unanimously and the result is that never have the styles been attractive; never have the design CTS devoted much of their skill and creative genius to give the consumer good practical garments bining beauty and utility.
 Manufacturing costs have been reduced to minimum and many prices based less than tho actual of material. The result is that manufacturers offering the cheaper lines spring dresses at figures around $7 and upward which with reasonable mark-up should permit their sale the consumer at about s1o to s125o depending upon the retailers overhead Better grades offered at correspondingly higher rates according the quail ity of the materials the exclusveness of de- sign. These. too, are priced comparatively low"
 This is interesting but complete. We are given forecast of prices and that is satisfactory We told that styles have not been subjected to only second thought but that they be attractive That is rather general; that 1t seems so but perhaps 1t Is minor matter after all Whatever the style may be it will be accepted as thing If it is what is to be there is not one woman in a hundred who would willingly something differ ent So if the price is right the dress will be right

Emerasncx Relief

The emergency measure revivifying the War Finance corporation does appeal to the country at large or for that matter to anybody policy that should be permanently adopted. No emergency measure does. Quinine and similar medicaments not articles of regular diet but they often pre- scrbed and deemed necessary for the relief of immediate ills
 A year ago we all believed that the sooner we could rid ourselves of war legislation the more emergency legislation and we had found it hamper ing and disturbing We could foresee the imme- diate future of the agricultural industry and we could not how seriously that industry was to be affected by the process winch regarded by all as essential to return what MT. Harding has called z "nornalcy."
 The business of the country for two years had been sustained in part by stimulants. It that they should be withdrawn and 1t was best for business generally, but the agricultural industry has been shown is yet in need of it.
 The presidents opposition to that emergency leg isIation was expected. The presidents weakness throughout his administration been generalization too little attention to details. That was well illus trated in his world peace plan in which he entirely overlooked the detail of nationalism. so in his bread plan for the readjustment of commerce and industry-he neglected the detail of the unexpected state of the agricultural industry
 But that was something the members of congress could overlook It thrust their faces by constituents in every state and district.

somE FACTS ABOUT DYNAMITE

There is a general belief that dynamite exerts Its force downward and in proof of this the average man win point to the fact that dynamite exploded on tbe ground will tear hole in it. This is true enough but if @ slab of stone say three feet square was raised just over the charge it would be shattered 10 bits just would if the charge were on top or IT,
 The only explanation lies in the fact that on stone slab there rests weight of nearly nine tons or air Air if moved slowly does not offer much re- sistance; but when attempt is made to move 1t
 swiftly such as by exploding dynamite its resistance becomes enormous and it is as if the dynamite was trying to blow through sand Therefore the resist ance of the ground beneath the explosion is about the same as that of the air with the difference that the hole the air is instantly filled again. and the hole in the earth remains to puzzle us When dynamite explodes it merely means that gases
 liberated expand so swiftly that whatever Is in the way is pushed out.-Detroit News

BY J. B. FRANCIS

Of all the various soil fertilizing agencies known, nitrogen ranks as the most essential and valuable. All plant growths require it in more or less abundance, some developing for then own needs an ample amount of nitro gen, while others have to depend all most entirely on stored available ni- trates already in the soil
 To secure high yields it is our duty to see that this most necessary ele- ment of fertilization is placed into the soil and there are several ways 1t can be done at varying expense.
 Commercial or mineral fertilizing compounds are too costly to be prac- ticable. while farm manure is so scarce, due to increased use of machinery, as to be out of the question where quan- titv is required. In most cases, too, the stock manure is not sufficiently mixed with straw, which is its chiel nitrogen bearing component, to be oI much more value to the soil than any ordinary purified substance posses sing little or no nitrogen. The third possibility is the green manure, or cover crop, as many call it.
 To the average farmer the term cover crop is quite familiar. implying as it does. a luxuriant crop of rich green vegetation containing plant food in various forms and in bountifu quantity which can be, most profitably turned under to decay and disintegrate and by the efforts of the soil bac- teria to become largely available a: nutritious plant food, but this is by n' means the complete repertoire of thu legume cover crops value to us. True great benefit accrues to us from tn storing in the soil and subsequent as similation by following crops of tn nitrogen and other various elements 1 and even if this were its sole wort 1 the resultant profit would be wei worth while; but we have also tn magnificent root development. of in finiteIy greater value, particular when inoculated, than the top.
 While the coered top adds tremen dousIy to the soil in humus and nj ! trates, the greater nitrogen produce and consequent land enricher is tn

WRONG IDEA OF MARRIAGE.
Young Ready to Take Plunge in Spirit of
Adventure. Results i'm Divorce.

When DIR. Winfield Scott Hall, noted
physician and authority on mental by
giene. declared recently that early mar
riage is desirable, even if the couple en-
tering into marriage have to make a hum
BILE beginning. he gave them sound advice.
When a nation reaches the point
where there is a popular sentiment in
favor Of pOStponing marriage until the
young people can begin where their par
ents left off. and when there are almost
as many applicants for divorce as for
licenses to wed, that nation is becoming
decadent. And this is not a matter of
personal opinion. 1t IS the history of the
world
ThoughtlesS young people always are
ready to plunge into marriage if only for
the sake of adventure. They are the peo-
pie who keep the divorce mill grinding out
its grist of tragedy and broken lives. They
furnish a large amount of business TO
welfare agencies. and it is for the pur-
pose of checking their headlong needless
ness that the welfare board of Oklahoma
and a number of the ministers are propos-
ing a change in the marriage laws.
Opposed to them are the more thought
full and deliberate who hesitate to enter
into marriage, the men because they are
afraid that they cannot keep pace with
the material demands Of their svpiveS. and
the women because the marriage vow is
mere scrap Of paper 10 so many men now
adays. The basis for all this trouble
when you come to analyze it, is a frivol-
Gus attitude toward life
Two young women were talking to-
gether, and one of them remarked that
her strength was hardly sufficient for her
work.
Why don't you get married?" said the
other. "ICu might try it Il while any
way"
There is the crux of our trouble. We
are all for trying marriage, but not for
sticking to it. We are for it as long as
we get what we want out of it, but we
are not for it if things go wrong. If
there is not plenty of money for fur
coats. candy and movies, and if the hus-
band Is SO unreasonable that he expects
his wife to do houseINOrk and cook meals
instead of dragging the family to n res
taurant or cafeteria. the wife decides that
she has made a bad bargain and applies
to the divorce COURT. The husband be
comes imbued with the modern idea that
fidelity is ridiculous. He has affairs" at
random and his wife, discovering his faith
lesSnesS, leaves him and asks for a di-
vorce. The one sex is hardly more cuI-
pable than the other. Both are imprisoned
with the -it-a-while'' idea. and if il
don't suit you, get Theoretically Okla
homan.
