PROMISES DEMOCRACY WHEN WOMEN WORK AGAINST BOSS RULE
The Farm and the Farmer By William R. Sanborn
Better government will not come until the women wake to their duty as
voters, form political Btandards, educate themselves In citizenship, and
organize their efforts to support com
petent candidates, Mrs. James W. Morrlsson, of Chicago, declared In an
address to women voters at the Mor-
riason-Reeves library Thursday after
noon.
If America, if democracy, mean anything to the women, they must get out and work for it, she declared, and
add the task of bettering their government to the dull, everyday chores they already are doing. Neglect and Indifference in this will be paid for In increased taxes and bad government The politicians, she pointed out, are at the game 365 days of the year, and to beat them and destroy their power the voters must work continually and conscientiously. The women of American must realize the importance of their responsibility as voters, Mrs. Morrlsson declared. "Women cannot sit at home and cherish high standards. Getting the vote did not change a single law on the statute books or erase a single
abuse." Submerge Democracy "Democracy is creaking if not cracking. It is getting under the Influence of men who are U3ing it for means we do not understand. We are questioning the organization of our society whether Institutions are functioning as they should. Never before has democracy been adequately tried out," the speaker said. "Only half of the nation has voted heretofore. Now wc have a potentially complete democracr
with all the citizens voting. To make them realize the Importance of their
task is our next duty." Alluding to the "political bosses,'
the speaker said that their advantage
ever the people lay in their knowledge
of the technique, "ins and outs" and workings of the political machine and
various offices. Ordinarily the politl cal boss is characterized by great tu
pidity, his power lying in a knowledge
of the "tricks of the trade" rather than
in super-Intelligence or brains, she
said.
"lie is at the political game 365 days
of the year. It is his bread and butter To us it is a sacrifice as we take ttm'
from other things. Consequently ho
wi!l always have a little advantage
over us. Relatively speaking, though
there are not many of them, so if we
Eet down to business, we won't be
ruled Indefinitely by them." Primary Important
The primary is one of the vital
points where women can begin their
work, Mrs. Morrisson said. "There are," she continued, "laws you wart
passed. It Is necessary to find out th standards you should be able to ex
pect, what you have a right to expect
from a senator, a mayor, or any other office-holder. What such a person
should be able to do. "The League of Women voters fur
nishes an opportunity for educational
work. Through its organization It is possible to get an education in thj
fundamentals of government. You can form your standards in the forum
where the 'pros' and 'cons' of funda
mental questions which should b party issues can be thrashed out."
"The other job of the League of
Women Voters Is of selecting and electing men who measure up to S3
high a standard as it is possible to
maintain. The women must vote at
the primary to have a choice in can
didates. They will only have a choloj
between two poor men if they have not gone out and slaved to bring gooJ
candidates forward. The question o
politics Is one of compromise at mos
times. You vote not for the best mau
but for the best available for office Urges Mixed Ticket
Mrs. Morrisson urged that women
not vote a straight ticket. "That
she said, "is just what the politicians want us to do, so they will have us
all labelled as Democrats or Republ
cans." "Do we want that?" she ques
tioned. "Does it have anything to da
with democracy? There is no possi
bility of getting the politicians to put
up better men unless you show them
you won't vote for a bad man."
Mrs. Morrisson upheld the primary
law, saying that as long as it stands
on the statute book3 it will be a ma
chine by which the voters can make
their will felt Under the old conven
tion system of nominations such was
not the case, she added. Refusal to
vote for bad men at election time i
the only check women can obtain on
political machines, Mrs. Morrisson de
clared.
Party policies do not matter i
state or city elections, Mrs. Morri
son pointed out. City and state off:
cials are not in a position where their
opinion on party issues counts. They should be selected from the standpoint of whether they are hard-working and reasonably competent Party policies do matter in selecting a president or members of congress, how-

TO INCREASE EXPORTS IrTwritlng to Wallaces' Farmer In relation to our exports of agricultural products, and the handling of the foreign debt in a manner to build up such exports, Wyoming man says: "I would suggest that a commission be appointed to ascertain the normal expenditures yearly of each debtor nation to the United States, and then for each additional dollar expended by
these debtor nations in the United
States for food products, we would credit them -with a like amount on their indebtedness. lt seems to me
this would help the debtor nations,
would increase the demand for Amer
ican good3, and would be especially beneficial to the farmers." It may be recalled that Babson, well
known statistician, made a similar
suggestion about a year ago, and it is known that Senator Kenyon was preparing to take the matter up in congress at the time he resigned. That this plan would do much to raise the
nrices of farm nroducts seems a cer
tainty. Not only would the foreigners
get the goods for which they paid but their governments would correspondingly reduce their indebtedness to thi3
country.- This would be of benefit to
American farmers and also to the peo-
Dle of Europe, many of whom are in
real need or tne commodities maxing

The 1923 Calf Club. The first gun in the campaign to
have a prize-winning calf club organ
ized and in action in Wayne county next year, was fired by the officials of the American Trust and Savings bank, of Richmond, on Thursday. Three classes are provided for the first, the
feeder class, to consist of Angus, Herefords and Shorthorns, either purebred, cross breeds or grades, with reg
istered sires. Next comes the breeder
class in which both beef and dairy breeds will be shown, every animal a
pure-bred and eligible to registry.
The third class will be known as the
Owners' Breeder Class, the pre
miums to be awarded only to the actual
owner of a pure-bred animal with cer
tificate of registry in the name of the
boy or girl who Is to feed and exhibit'
ai me wayne county fair next falL In this class the bank offers to buy and
pay ior me calves, which will be sold to club members on their notes, as is usual in such cases.
This class will compete with thi reg
ular Breeders' class as to the championship awards. In both of the Breeders' classes six strains of cattle may be shown: Herefords, Shorthorns and Angus in the beef breeds ahd Jerseys, Guernseys and Holstelns in the dairy
oreeas.
ever, as their opinions are valuable and they are the ones who decide and
vote on these issues."
To get the competent and decent
man to run for office is a chief duty
of women voters, declared the speaker,
It is a sacrifice for the competent bus
iness man to run for office but not
for the politician for it is his liveli
hood. It means for the business man
that he must neglect his affairs, be subject to abuse and misrepresenta
tion. If the women will go out and
work and campaign for them and raise
their expenses they will run, "If you will not." she pointed out" you pay
for your indifference and neglect in
ncreased taxes and bad government.
If It is a better investment for you
to put in time on the primary and have
better government is for you to decide. You will never get a better govern
ment unless you brace up and make
the effort
"This new task", she concluded
'must be added on to the dull, every
day chores women are doing. They
will have to hammer away at It At times it will be tiresome and dull but it can be made Interesting if we take an interest in it. If your democracy
means anything to you if America
means anything to you, then do your
part to make it the kind of a place you think it should be.".
The grand championship in the feeder class will entitle the holder to a trip to the Chicago International in 1923. Individual cash prizes run froai $12.50 down to $5 for fourth prize anJ we understand that every exhibitor will get 3, where there is failure to win a premium according to classification. In addition to the prizes already arranged for it is most likely that the various breed associations will add special prizes on their entries. As in the case of the pig clubs, so witi calves, every animal will be shown at the Wayne county fair. ' The Silent Majority Prof. S. A. Beach, of Ames, Iowa, recently passed over to the silent majority, and in his death horticulture
lost a nationally known figure. Dur
ing his 17 years at Ames he had doa3
more work. in scientific aoDle breeding
than had ever been done at anv insti
tuuon in this country. Not alone Iowa
out the horticulturists of the country have sustained a loss In the death ol
rrof. Beach. Too Much Fresh Meat
The department at Washington
states that all supplies of fresh meats
at the large consuming centers were
excessive during the first week in November and that the demand was limited, so that the price trend was down
ward, except at Chicago where mutton advanced SI to S2 per cwt The
talk of an eat more meat campaign
seems timely, but it Is likely that witi
the advent of seasonably cold weather the demand for fresh meats will pick
up.
Eastern reports are that wool has
reached new high figures. The recent advances here are a reflection of those

were loaded In the same week last! year. During October the movement of al
falfa seed from growers' hands was i very active, and by the end of the
month it was estimated that approximately two-thirds of the crop had been sold by growers. In central and northern producing sections 50 percent to 75 percent of the crop had moved while In Texas and New Mexico 85 percent to &0 percent had moved. In portions of South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado and Utah only a small percentage of the seed had been
sold. About 25 percent of the seed
outside of that controlled by pools in
South Dakota v reported sold.
In the UinVi Basin of Utah storey
weather on Oct. 31 was delaying the
delivery of 15-20 carloads of seed to
railroad stations. The movement in
Arizona continued draggy. In the im
portant producing sections of Kansas,
Oklahoma, and Idaho more than 75 per
cent of the crop had moved from grow
ers' hands.

Now there are two gTeat reasons for getting Quaker Oats. One is exquisite flavor. This brand is flaked from qusen grains only just the rich, plump, Savory oats. Now there's another style. It is Instant Quaker Oats the quickest-cooking oats in the world. It cooks in 3 to 5 minutes, so it means an oat dish almost ready. . . Same quality, same flavor. But in Instant Quaker the oats are cut before flaking. They are rolled very thin and partly cooked. So the flakes are smaller and thinner that is all. And those small thin flakes cook quickly. Your grocer has both styles. If you want Instant look for "Instant" on the labeL Then you can have delicious oats ready in 5 minutes.
