MARY Foote
a Henderson, con-
scented to talk to The Sun
day Star about the girls and
women of today as compared
with those of other days.
Born 80 years ago, and not
ashamed to frankly mention
her age, Mrs. Henderson Is
one of the most outstanding
women of America as an in
side and closeup observer Of
the political and social life
of the United States cover
ing some 70 years. Born and
educated in New England, her
father was prominent in the
political and social life Of
Massachusetts, and the rest
of New England and New
York State. AS a boy and
young man her father, Judge
Elisha Foote, knew John
Quincy Adams, sixth PreSi-
dent of the United States,
and John Quincy Adams, the
second, as well as Charles
Francis Adams, the second,
and their families. Mrs. Hen
derson was a niece of Solo
mon Foote, United States
Senator from Vermont from
1851 to 1866, during the
presidential terms Of Frank
lin Pierce, James Buchanan,
Abraham Lincoln and the
first year (1865) of Andrew
Johnson's term. Her hus-
band was a colleague in the
Senate Of Senator Solomon
Foote, her fathers brother,
from 1862 to 1866.
AS Mary N. Foote she mar
lied John Brooks Henderson,
. Virginian by birth. He
immigrated to Missouri in
the exciting slave agitation
days before the Civil War.
This Southerner became an
ardent Abraham Lincoln Re
publican, made a trip East to
see Mary Foote and took this
Yankee girl to st. Louis as
his bride. He became one Of
the great lawyers of that day,
was elected to the Missouri
State Legislature, was APP
pointed United States attor-
ney, in which position he
successfully prosecuted the
notorious whisky ring of st.
Louis, which experience Of
her husband gave Mrs. Hem
derson her first real glimpse
into the evils OF the liquor
traffic and led finally TO her
becoming the ardent prohibit
ZIONIST which she is today. In
Missouri her husband was
elected to the United States
Senate and was a close friend
of Abraham Lincoln during
the trying days Of the Civil
War. He was a Senator from
1862 to 1869. Mrs. Hender-
son knew President Lincoln
and Mrs. Lincoln very well
and has lived in Washington
under the administrations of
Presidents Lincoln, johnson,
Grant, Hayes, Garfield, Ar

Mckinley, Roosevelt, Taft,

"I will not keep a maid in my

she left me to converse with

she went to bring her peru

dressed. The maid soon apS
peared with a skirt reaching
to her ankles. Mrs. Hender-

with short skirts and bar
barous high-heeled shoes. I
took her to one of the big
stores downtown and told
them to At this young wom4

the maid had on shoes with
Cuban heels. "That will not
do; the heels are too high,
and If your low-heeled shoes
are worn out, we will go
downtown and get you shoes
that will give you comfort
and happiness and no broken
arches" said Mrs. Henderson,
and appointed the next day
for attending to this impor~

the maid three pairs Of low

German Cotton Weaving.

The German cotton weaving mills in
1880 faced problems more complicated
and difficult than any which they had
met previously, although the industry
had operated under unfavorable condi-
tons for the last few years, according
TO reports Of the Association of the
German Cotton-Weaving Mills. The
average degree of occupation in the
cotton-weavlng industry during 1890
was approximately go per cent: in sew
eral branches, notably the section pro-
ducing woven colored goods, it was
much lower. Exports recorded a marked
decrease in the first six months Of 1880,
and toward the end Of the second half
foreign sales were Is to 20 per cent be-
low the level Of the previous year. The
domestic turnover also was smaller. and
the import trade in cotton goods de-
clined, reports Assistant Trade Commits

COLLEGE PARK, Nd. April 90
The condition OF Maryland wheat on
April is reported by the State Crop
Reporting Service to be about So per
cent OF normal, compared with 80 per
cent at this time year ago, go per
cent IN 1929 and the l0-year average
OF about 80 per cent.
On the basis Of this early condition
ngure production in 1881 is forecast at
about 6,0o0,0 900 bushels. Total produc-
ton last year was estimated at H.
1000 bushels, in 1929 it was 9 $50 600
bushels and the 10-year average pro-
auction is very close TO 10000 600
bushels.
Effects of Drought.
The extremely low condition Of wheat
Is due TO effects Of last years drought.
The crop was planted in very dry soil
last Fall, with the result that germina-
ton was very spotted, some of the
wheat not coming up at all before
Winter set in. The Winter was gen
orally mild one, with much less snow
cover than might be desired
While the combined effects of the
drought and the open Winter will prob
ably cause greater than usual abandon
ment, the actual loss Of wheat acreage
ID HOL expected 10 be excessive. Many
farmers intend planting some feed ercp
with their poorer wheat. and will cut
his acreage for hay instead Of for grain
1t has been found in past years that
early season condition is not always a
good indication Of what the final out
turn Of the wheat crop will be.
Condition OF the crop on April va
ried considerably in different parts of
the State. In the most important
wheat section, the northern part of the
State, it was reported to be about SO
per cent Of normal: in the two noun
tain counties of Western Maryland II
averaged about SO per cent; in South
ern Maryland II was about 81 per cent,
and on the Eastern Shore about 76 per
cent.
