If women are "people" they liuvo the right to vote, aecord to the constitution of the United BtutoH. All male citizens except idiotic, In sane or criminal have n right to vote. In some states women are placed below these In the political world. In New Jersey, under the federal constitution, women voted for Wash ington, A (liuim and Jefferson, nnd wore not designated "the now wom an."

The first clause of the fourteenth amendment says: "All persons, born or naturalized In the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction there of, are citizens of the United States, and of the state wheroln they re ldo." This clause does not sny "nil men" but "all persons" and unless women are not persons they are citizens. The socond clause says: "No state Hhall mnke or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or Im ntunltloa of tho citizens of the Unit ed Statos." Then follows the fifteenth amend ment on the rights of citizens, not men: "The right of citizens to vote hall not be denied or abridged by the United States, or any state, on account of rnco, color, or previous condition of servitude."

While It Is Impossible to forecast tbe weather or tell just how large the dif ferent crops will be. there need be uo , guesswork on the question of dies, it i is safe to take It for grunted that there will be the usual uuuiiicr of the dirty i pests, it is tnie there are not as muny i of llieni ubout right uvw us there will ! be in eight weeks, but It Is none too early to beglu waging a vigorous earn- paign against them. The light ngninst : them should be waged along two geu '. irol lines first, reducing their breed ing places to n minimum, aud. next, to destroy them with traps and poison as i soon as they put in an appearance, j The several prepared fly dopes ore ex i cellent. but care should be taken to see that they are kept out of the reach of little children. Another dope tuat is not liurmful to the humnn is mnde by adding a couple of tublespooufuls of formalin to a pint of wuter and placlug this iu slmllow dishes where the Dies f gather. A little sugar und a few drops of vinegar will serve to increase its druwlug power. The most effective trap is made by inserting a cone inudo of wire screen with a small bole in tbe tip lu the bottom of a barrel or smaller receptacle with wire sides, made fly tight. This should be put where tbe tiles gather, raised three or four inches on supports and a dish of some sweet stuff placed beneath to more effectively drnw the flies. They will creep up this cone iuto the trap, and the more flies there are trapped the more will want to get Into it H. W. Oliver, of 1137 N.

Now that the Benson of cheaper eggs Is at hand there mny be Home readers who will wnnt to preserve some for fall and winter use. One of the best methods of a good many that hare beeu tried Is by the use of the water glass solution, or sodium silicate. This chemical costs about 20 cents a quart and can be cot at most any drug store. This should bo thoroughly mix ed with water that 1ms been boiled and cooled at the rate of a quart of the wa ter class to nine quarts of water. The best receptacle to use is an earthen ware vessel, which should be scalded out before being used. Only dean, fresh aud unrraeked eggs should be put down. The Jar containing the eggs should be put In a cool place and covered with sacking or a board cover to prevent evaporation of the solution. Experience shows that eggs laid lu April and Mny will keep longer than those secured In other months.

A. S. ilu cy Co. 8. P. Time Insckctoss CASS STRKKT ROSEI1UUG WHY IT PAYS. Briefly, the philosophy of the ndvnn tnge of clover growing lies In this fact that, while a ton of clover liny takes from the soil nbout $S In fertilizing elements, there is added to the soil through the ro (8 systems, which take nitrogen from the air. about the same volume of fertilizers. This menus that one can grow clover and Just about keep even. However. If one feeds this clover hay on the farm and returns (he manure to the soil the farm will be the gainer by approximately $4 worth of fertilizers for every ton of bay pro duced. It Is due to this fact that sec tions where dairying Is carried on and where cattle and sheep are fed become more fertile aud prosperous as the years go by.

Folks living in security on the high- I land watersheds, far removed from ! the Missouri aud Mississippi river bot toms, wonder sometimes why folks I persist in living where the water level , in these rivers Is higher than the beds I they sleep In at night mid where in i time of spring freshets they are likely I to be drowned out of house and home. I Tbe secret of this persistence may be ; accounted for lu part by the fact that i many of these people are of limited re ' sources and linvo not the wherewithal tobuy land elsewhere, but In larger J part because these lowlands, overflow ed as they are with tho silt ladcu wa ters at tloodtlme. aro us fertile nnd productive as was ever the valley of I tho Nile. I !

Not only are lec tures on the advantage of raising Im proved breeds of stock given, but rep resentatives of the several kiuds of domestic animals nre taken along as object lessons to drive bomo the argu ments presented In the talks. It Is a good work that Is being done and means benefit for all parties concerned. Our stock is complete.
