-* IN THE REALM WHERE WOMAN REIGNS •*

Indiana Farm Women to Hold Meeting Here Federation Prompt in Recognition of Intelligence and Good Will. By JTXIA C. HES'DERSOS. This time it la the Indiana farm women who are going to demonstrate to their men folk that they know how to do things and have a view point on how to help them make better homes and communities in which to live and rear their families. But let it be said, long and loud, that the farmers are coming to the front in recognition of the ability, intelligence, good will and earnest intentions of their women and are the first gronp, so far as is known, who are inviting their women to come into their federation on absolutely the same equality with the men. Tomorrow women representing the county farm organizations In Indiana will meet in the Palm room of the Claypool Hotel at the invitation of the Indiana Federation of Farmers' Associations for a conference and discussion of a broadening of women's work in the farm organizations. While each county bureau in the State hai been asked to send one representative farm woman to this conference the tweeting will be opeu to all rural women of the State and many are planning to be in attendance. The invitation for the coming together of the farm women of Indiana is in line with the movement to make the organization a nation-wide affair. It is estimated that the federation will have at least a million members if only the wives of the American Farm Federation Bureau Join hands with the men. Perry H. Crane, secretary of the Indiana federation has great hope that the admission of women will be beneficial to the organization, in this State in that there are many problems that they can help to solve, and the federation in turn can be of great service to the women in the problems which confront them. It Is pleasing to all groups of women that the farm women's organization is not to be an auxiliary, or an aid society to the men's organization but is to he a part of the federation itself. This U the goal which women have been endeavoring to reach for many years. More and more are they realizing that they must get on the Inside of j things in order that they may do their best work, and that they may help to bring about the changes which shall i make for the betterment of the young! of the land. The program for the conference for to- j morrow follows: 10:00 a. m.—Music. 10:13 M. M.—“ Object of the Confers- 1 nee.” John G. Brown, president Indiana, Federation of Farmers' Associations.

FARMER’S WIFE TELLS SENATE WHAT’S NEEDED Mrs. Nels Radick of Fulda, Minn., Says Country Life Isn’t All Honey. Special to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By CONSTANCE DREXEL, WASHINGTON, March 6.—Astonished at the price of meat and produce on the diner coming East In comparison with what Is paid on the farm, Mrs. Nels Radick of Fulda, Minn., stepped off the train from the West all primed to tell the woes of a farmer’s wife to a Senate committee. It Is not often yon find a real farmer's wife In Washington. That Is one who still does her own work and Is still raising children and chickens and whose matronly form is dressed in a plain white shirtwaist and black skirt of this year’s vintage. But such Is Mrs. Radick, straight from her .00-acre farm two miles from the toWi of Fulda, which boasts a population of 1.000. This Is her very first trip farther East than Chicago, and she has only been there once, but was she awed at Washington? Or afraid when she had to get up and talk before that august Senate committee? Not a bit of it. In effect, she said : afterwards she wondered why folk on | the farm were so shy about making 1 their wishes known to Congress. But ; then, perhaps that is because her parents wanted her to have a good education, and she had been a teacher In a country school before marrying. THINKS CONGRESS QUITE HUMAN. Mrs. Radick visited the Senate gallery for a couple of hours, but even looking down on Senators as they debated the | affairs of the Nation, did not awe and she Is going back home to tell the folk j they needn't have a bit of hesitancy in j writing of their heartaches to Represents- j tire or Senator. “Just nice and human,” j she said.

Mrs. Radick was brought to Washington through the efforts of Benjamin C. Marsh, mnnaglng editor of the farmers’ national council, which is active In promoting farmers’ Interests la Congress and Is one of the forces behind the socalled “farm bloc.” She spoke In favor of the Ladd-Slnclalr bill, which the Senate Committee on Agriculture has under consideration. Briefly the measure calls for guaranteed prices to the farmers for their products and the revival of the Grain Corporation. Being vice president of the United Society of Agriculture, Mrs. Radick knows ths situation on farms in the Northwest intimately, hut better still, she la a farmer's wife herself, hiring a few extra “hands" when they can get them, and knowing all her neighbors’ problems as well as her own. She told the Senate committee the farmers' wives and children are In desperate condition on account of the terrible deflation of price in farm products. “Many of the fanners In my neighborhood hare had to take their children out of school and do work beyond their strength on tho farm to get every possible bushel of corn and grain that can be gathered. PRODUCTION COST EXCEEDS PRICE. “It cost ns 72 cents to produce a bushel et oats and oats are now bringing 89 cents n bushel. We lost f1,700 on two carloads of cattle In May, 1920, and twclvo farms In our one township have been advertised for delinquent taxes. We had to sell our Liberty Bonds to pay our taxes, after these bonds had been driven down lei to fifteen points. “Fajmori live by hope, faith and accident. We plow and aow in hope, live In faith and market by accident The farmer, his wife and his family got about 3 cents por hour for last year’s work. Children oti the farm are Just vocal agricultural Implements. Six million farm women are fighting for their children,” she finished. She urged the Government stabltse the price of staple farm products for a few years, and create a farm products' export corporation to finance the purchase and sale abroad of surplus farm product.’, all of which practically are the provisions of the Lndd-Sinclalr bllL Mrs. Radick today addressed an audience of city women at the home of Mrs. Gredon Norriea at 90S Park arenne, Washington. She also will tnlk at Boe thoven Hall in New York this week.— Copyright, 11922, by Public Ledger Company.

Two Identical boxes, one containing the liardeaster family Jewels, the other holding the remains of Fill, Diana Richmond’s pet dog, which died under mysterious circumstances, are shifted in a peculiar manner during a robbery attempt, in which Phillip Morel! tries to obtain the gems through a window in Diana's home. I-awrencc Tilton, lawyer, who Is nldlng Diana In her light for possession of these Jewels, valued at a half million. Is instrumental in upsetting the schomes of two clever plotters, by acting on a sudden Impulse, while the thief’s back is turned. From this point, exciting events follow fast upon each to the end of the narrative. CHAPTER X—Continued A few minutes later he emerged from tho rear of the house, swinging the spado In his hand, He went leisurely to the spot that Di had designated as Fill's grave, placed the box he carried Into tho hole, covered It carefully with soli and returned to the house. As Dl was so anxious about her brother, Larry decided that he would not tell her anything about the trick he had played upon the burglar. The rascal was no doubt so sure of his treasnre he would not bother to break tho lock of the box until he got too far away to return that night Larry rather congratulated himself on the neat way he had rescued the Jewels without alarming the household, to say nothing of the advantage a housebreaker would have in the way of revolvers in his pockets. Before letting Dl know that he had returned he went into the library, closed the door after him and turned the key In the door. Then ha called for a number and talked In low tones for a minute or two. When he hung up the receiver he was smiling. Di had become restless and was waiting for him In the hall. He told her he uad Just telephoned to a business freind, but Dl was too anxious to show any curiosity. “Would you like to take a walk?" he asked, almost afraid to look at her frightened face. “The rale has ceased and there is still a little light.” “So, no, Larry,” Di said, shuddering She looked so terror-stricken, the man was at his hit's end to ease her mind. “I'm sura you are worrying unnecessarily about Tom," he began, but Di cut him off. “Oh. Larry,” she wailed, "I'm brckenuearted. It will kill mother.” and she threw herself into his arms and sobbed with such unrestrained grief that Larry was frightened. He could not account for her distress. Tom had stayed away before. Besides, he was not more than two hours later than tha time ha was expected, and any slight acicdcnt might detain him that length of time. He explained that to Dl, but all his entreaties to her to be calm nnd reasonable only met with more tears. "Don’t Larry," she said at last. “I can't listen to another word. You don't know what you are saying. Please go away and leave me alone.” But Lorry only held her tighter. Presently he led her to a seat In the library and she sat quite quiet with her head upon his shoulder. Now nnd then a deep sigh that shook her slender frame made him aware that she was awake and suffering. The slightest sound made her start. Once Helen tip-toed along the hall to say that Mrs. Richmond was still sleeping. I.nrry put up his finger to indicate that Di was sleeping too, and the girl crept noiselessly back to the servants' quarters. But Di was not asleep. She was awnke and feeling terribly crushed and miserable. Suddenly she raised her head and looked fixedly at Larry. '‘Listen.” she said, holding up her flnpor “Do von hear footsteps?" Larry couldn't, but he strained his ears and listened Intently. “Yes,” he exclaimed at last. “Some one Is coming.” Ho took her hand and led her to the door. Coming across the lawn was a young woman, half running and half walking, and panting so that they could hear her yards away. A moment lator Tilton recognized Grace Parker, one of the employes from h's office. For the moment he forgot that the girl's vacation had started that afternoon and she had told him she was going to spend it In Connecticut. Her agitation showed that something had happened, and for the first time that evening he felt worried about the Jewels; that ho had been foolish In letting the would-be robber go so easily. He tried to send Dl back to the house, bnt she clung to his arm nnd insisted upon remaining. With n good rtejl of self-restraint she was nble to meet the girl with something like her nsual composure. She re laxed her clinging hold of Larry, and stood waiting with well-concealed emotions. The lawyer was tho first to speak. “Is anything the matter?” he asked as Grace stopped breathless In front of them. “I mnst speak to you alone. Mr. Tilton. Please go away," she panted, looking earnestly at Dl. “I must hear what yon have to say.” Dl said, looking firmly at the girl, “You may speak freely." Tilton nodded eagerly. “All right. Miss Parker. Lady Bannister prefers to remain.” he said. “There's been an accident,” Grace said hastily, but trying to keep tho seriousness of it from the white-faced woman,

w'no was listening fearfully for her story. “I think you had better hurry, because it may be rather bad.” “Who Is it?” Tilton asked, placing his arm protecting around Di's waist. "Mr. Morell,” Grace said, still speaking rapidly. “He is lying on the roadside some distance from Four Corners. If you have a car you could soon reach him,” she added. Tilton never forgot the look that Di flashed at him in that moment. It was not merely surprise, although Morell was supposed to be in Boston by this time, but a nameless something in her eyes that was neither relief nor regret that made him, even in the stress of the moment, wonder. 'ls Mr. Morell alone?" she asked. He was alone when the accident occurred, but two men came up close behind him. They are with him now. They would have come for you but they have a flat tire and Mr. Morrell’s machine is smashed to smithereens. I told them you were the injured man’s friends, and I knew the way here, so came a3 fast as I could.” “Did you know the men?” Tilton asked, looking.closely at Grace. “I have seen them before,” she replied. Larry asked no more questions, but quickly led the way to the garage where ho showed quiet efficiency in getting the car ready for the Journey, He was puzzled to know what to do with Morell If It should turn out that he was seriously injured. He could not explain to Dl Just then the outraggAous burglary that, as her mother's guest, the man had attempted. To bring him to the house was out of the question, but what reason could he offer for not doing so? While he was debating this In his mind DI stood silently observing him. “If Mr. Morrell Is seriously Injured, what do you Intend to do?” she startled tho lawyer by asking. "Do you want me to bring him here?” I.erry asked in a tone that implied doubt. “Certainly not,” Di said firmly. “Ask him where he thinks he ought to be taken.” “He will get quicker relief in the nearest hospital,” Larry returned, more than ever puzzled. Dl seemed about to speak again, but remembering that they were not alone, suddenly turned to Grace, who was standing apart In the shadow. Larry peered into the shadow, too. (To Be Continued.)

PUSS IN BOOTS, JR. By DAVID CORY. Puss Junior and Tom Thumb were quite sad at parting with Taffy tho Welshman and his kind little wife; but even the best of friends must part, so they said good-by and again resumed their Journey of adventure, and by and by they came to the sen. where on the beach lay a small boat. 8o Puss picked np Tom Thumb and Jumped aboard, and pretty soon the tide came In, and the little boat floated once more, and then Puss hoisted the sail tad set off on a voysge of discovery. And wasn't it luclty? There were boxes of crackers and bottles of water packed away in the cabin. "Hurrah I” cried Pus , nnd then he began to sing; “Over the waves and the sparkling foam. Away from land we call our home; Far out to sea we’ll sail away. Sailors bold for many a day I" “I never knew yon were so good a sailor,” said little Tom Thumb, watching Puss Junior trim the sails and handle the tiler. “You are an old sailor.'' “Not at all,” replied Puss; “but the little Owl in the pea-green boat taught me a few things, and the rest comes naturally to me. I guess. Perhaps I'm s natural-born sailor cat,” and Puss laughed and commenced to sing again: "Off on the bounding sea we float, Puss Junior and Tom in their little sealboat. Holst the topsail and let her go. Over the foam as white as snow. Haul In your main-sheet! Hard-a-leet These are the words we used at sea! When the harbor, we reach at last We'll lower the sail from the big, tall mast.” “Where did yon learn that song?” asked Tom Thumb. “Didn’t learn it.” replied Puss. “Made It np as I went along! I feel so jolly sailing away, why, I even don’t mind getting wet with the spray!” After a while tho sun went down In the west and the big moon came out and looked down on the little boat, with Puss Junior at tho helm and little Tom Thumb by his side. And the little boat raced aiong. and Jbo big waves lifted it up on their white-crested heads and then let it down again quite safely, and the evening breeze sang a soft little lullaby, so that by and by Tom Thumb went sound to sleep. And pretty soon Puss closed first one eye and then the other, till, all of a ! sudden. Captain Puss Junior went sound asleep at the helm. But tha little boat kept right on its way until It bumped on a sandy beach. And in the next story you shall hear what happened after that. (To Bo Continued.)

When I think of it f wish we had sold them.” “Oh don’t be absurd Henry,” exclaimed Mrs. Hooper, “think how much income we are getting from that house Just because it happened to be furnished the way Mrs. Selden liked and she might take the house for another year or some one els* might want it.” “Not a chance In the world,” a!<| Henry gloomily, “it was pure luck that the Seldens appeared at the right moment and were willing to pay as much as Mr, Allen told us to charge them.” “Well I Intend to make as much a# possible of that good fortune and save toward paying off the thousand dolla* mortgage on the Mayfield house,” re* plied Mrs. Hooper. “And not buy any electric toaster of any of the conveniences that we really need I suppose,” grumbled Henrfy as be took a bite from his half warm toast. “I’d grown so used to making the toast on the table with that handy little contrivance that I miss the fun of doing it besides having to eat my toast cold.” "Yes I wouldn't worry so much about the convenience if I could only keep the food hot while I'm serving it,” added Mrs. Hooper, "the dining room table is so far from the kitchen stove in this house, and I haven’t but a few covered dishes.” “Can’t you buy some metal covers like : they use in restaurants and tha same as they had on the Pullman dining cars?” asked Henry. “I have noticed that the food is colder here than I can ever remember eating it before at our own tabl*, Mary.” “But those covers are fearfully exuenstve,” declared Mrs. Hooper. “I priced them when I was shopping on Thursday because I knew they were Just what I needed to put over the food while we are carrying It from the kitchen and even when it is standing on the table. But they are a way beyond what I can afford to pay for them, and except for vegetables there are no cheap covered china dishes that are practical either." “Oh, mother'” exclaimed Helen, excitedly, “I know the very thing.” "Youl” exclaimed Mrs. Hooper In surprise. “What do you know about dish covers ?” “A whole lot!” Helen went on briskly, “one of the girls at school told me what her mother does to keep things on her table warm and to cover the dishes on a tray that they have to carry upstairs to her big sister that has been sick In bed for nearly a year.” “Well, how does she manage?” asked Mrs. Hooper, with more interest. “I’d certainly like to know.” “You know this sister fell down and hurt her back,” began Helen, relishing the opportunity of telling a story at tha table. “But, Helen, I want to know about thß dish covers,” interrupted her mother. “Well, she can’t tell yon anything about them now," said Mr. Hooper, “if she intends to get to school in time.” “I'll tell you all about them at tea time,” promised Helen, delighted at the prospect of having something importanfl to imßarL The menus for the three meals on Tuesday are: BREAKFAST, Stewed Prunes.
