By E, T. MEREDITH, “Secretary of Agriculture. Many young men in the various oc- cupations of the cities find their minds turning to thoughts of the out- door life of the farm, but:they do not know how to start farming. It fs the} in farm papers If they y Purpose of this article to point the way to a successful Gareer as a farm- er. I assume the young men ‘ip question are looking abopt for a Job that will give them use for theix mus- cles, combined with work for their brains and an outlet for their initia- tive—something that yields. a good living and, most important of all, has prospects/for the future. ¥ A mere job is not enough. Even if the pay is’ good, there must be some- thing to satisfy the ambitions of such The man I have in mind does not want to be a. wage earner all his life.

For men of. that type there are more chances on the farm than they may realize, and I should like to tell abuut a few of them very briefly. - We may imagine such a man put- ting himself. through an examination something like this: “How, much money have you?” “Not much,” “What do you know. about farm- ing?” “Very little; but I’m good and strong, and hard work never scared me.” J “What would you like to do for a living?” “| would_like to own a farm some-| forts for the betterment of country where and work it. I'd like to live in decent style and marry and bring up a family.” ts It is peculiar how the idea always crops up that the first step in farm- ing {s to own a farm, “A farm of your owp” is all right asa goal to loak ahead to, but the man who lacks either the requisite money or experi- ence will reach the goal quicker by starting in as a hired man. If he has money and needs experience, he wi not find it profitable to acquire and operate a* farm ‘until he has gained that skill and judgment which will enable him to manage a farm suc- cessfully. The cheapest and quick- est way to gain this skill”and knowl- edge is’ by working on a well-mi aged farm in the summer and_at- tending the, winter short course In agriculture at the nearest agricul- ture college. The young man without money will find working for wages on the, farm the means of saving a little mor and establishing his reputation as a skilled workman and a man of in- tegrity. With a good reputation in these regards byt little money fs re- quired to sarin as a tenant farm- er, where he can realize on, the extra energy, the better skill, and the4zood management he is able to put into his farming business. z Road to Success Not Hard. The read is open to the “farm of your own,” and the road is neither longer no harder for one who, likes farming than {fs the road to success in other occupations, but the safest way is to start ip at the bottom and climb “the agricultural ladder.” I do npt remember any time when farm labor was In such great demand as at present, or when wages for un- skilled farm labor were as good or when the standard of living on the farms was.as high as it is now. From all parts-of the country comes the demand for men who are afraid of work. If the schedule of the day’s wages in the cities appears lav- ish when compared with the pay of the farm laborer, just remember that the latter gets his board and rent— and usually his washing and a lot of other things+and that in the cities where the wages are higher, these things are commanding greatly in creased prices. In other words, what the farm la- borer receives in cash is pretty near- ly clear gain. Most of it can be placed in the savings bank and begin to-dyaw interest, “While the wages paid in’ the cities shrink to something much less impressive when all the bills are paid. In the right sort of farming com- munity and the right sort of farm- er’s hous@hold the hired man fs ‘re- ceived on his merits as a man. If he is a straight, clean sort of fellow, his good qualities will be appreciated in the country as readily as in the city. A great deal more so, 1 should say, for the individual human being seems to count for more out on the farm than he does in a city where great numbers of them are crowded togeth- er. he J.

But the canipaign for the movement was slowly but steadily gaining ground in the states. Right Tested Meanwhile Miss: Anthony made a test of the right of women to cast the ballot by going to the polls ang voting. She’ was arrested and convicted and, though she refused to pay her fine, was never jailed. She became, how- ever, the forerunner of the “militants” who adopted the forceful tactics of the sacter days of the campaign. State after state gradually en- tranchised its women citizens. Be- ginning with Wyoming in 1869, by 1919 sixteen states had given women the right to vote, and fourteen states had presidential suffrage previous to tion of the amendment. Militancy in the fight for suffrage in merica made its appearance with the formation of the National Woman's Party in 1913. On the eve. of Presi- dent Wilson’s inauguration, 8,000 wo- men led by Alice’ Paul, now the chair- man of the party, attempted to march trom the Capitol to the White House. They were harassed by a_ hostile crowd which overran an unsympa- thetic police and the capital of the United States had it first experience with suffrage riots, Continuing their demonstrations over a period of seven years members of the women's party picketed the White House with banners in their of whom is now its president. 19th Amendment The nineteenth amergment, whigh bears her name, was drafted by” Miss Anthony ‘ip 1875 and was ‘first intro- duced in. Congress in 1878 by. Senator A. A. Sargent of California; and it is in the.same language that the new principle of the national law reads: | “Article——. Section 1... The | right of citizens of ‘the United | States to vote- shall not be de- | nied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex. “Section 2. Congress shall have power, by appropriate legislation, to enforce the provisions of, this article.” The amendment holds the record of >eing before the country longer than any other successful amendment to! the Constitution.

The acts, how- ever, were disavowed by the National Association. Promptly with the passage of the amendment by the Congress. the) suff- rage forces turned their attention to ratification by the fourths of the states. More. special sessions of the state legislatures were fe led to act upon the 19th than upom any other amendment.

From its beginning in this country. the suffrage movement met determ- ined opposition {rom women as well as from men. The first organized op- position on the part of women mani fested itself in 1873 when a committee of prominent women presented a peti- tion to Congress “protesting against the extension of suffrage to women.” Mrs, W. T. Sherman, wife of the Civil War hero, headed the committee, of which Miss. Catherine Ward Beecher, sister of the famous divine, Henry Ward Beecher, was a member. Vari- ous anti-suffrage organizations. came into being subsequently, until the Na- tionah Association opposed to. woman suffrage was formed in 1911 with Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge of New York as its first president. This body, step by step, fought the adoption and ratifica- tion of the amendment. Full suffrage is enjoyed ‘today by the women of 21 foreign countries in- cluding the new states of Czecho- ; Slovakia and Poland and the ancient nations of England, Germany and the Scandinavian countries. Now that the women of the United States have won the right equally with the men to take their part in the government.of the republic the effect of the.women’s vote on the political life of the country re- mains for time to show. Many women are joining the old line parties with {their men folk but the National Wo- man‘s Party holds its own convention in June and will draw up its platform for the coming campaign. First. ef- forts probably will be directed to the laws of inheritance, divorce, guardian- ship and other laws alleged to discrim- inate against women. 75-CENT GAS San Francisco, Aug. 18:—Seventy- five cent gasoline is a posalbility | within two years, Prof. C.
