Kellogg believes that women are too near their beginning to enable one to base a sound judgment upon them. ‘Therefore, It seemed to me thes it would be interesting to present to women readers of The Evening World, who may be listening to “the lure of the land,” the experiences and opinions of a woman who has made @ real suc- coms as a farmer SHE is Miss Fay Kellogg, who also han won laurels as a pioneer wom- an architect. But for years, on her 36- acre farm in Northport, L. 1, Miss Kellogg has been doing just what a few of the more adventurous are now sug- gesting timidly that women can be taught to do. She has cleared a farm, parts of which had not for 100 years been in use; has sown her acres, tended them, and made the place one of the most beautiful in Northport. Clad in trousers, she had cleaned pig-pens and helped = butcher. She has pruned and grafted her own trees, planted her own vegetables, pulled out her own weeds, run her own traction ploughs. And she says that if women can’t learn to farm, she'd like to know who can. -"When I got my farm at North- port it was a result of my old con- viction that a woman can do any- thing in the world that she makes up her mind to,” said Miss Kellogg. “A part of it was so old that brambles and branches over a foot deep cov- ered it. The men said that it would nover be made productive ground. 1 was ono of those who believed in it So I went with a bush scythe ahead of the teams, cutting out roots and brambles and poison ivy. Then a team of three horses with a disc har- row cut up the soll thoroughly, and 1 weht over it again with @ tooth har- row.” ‘TH2 woman-farmer's first triumph came when she planted clover on the soll that the men had declared was unproductive. T bought tne clover aced, and {noculated it," she explained, “You didn't know that any one or any- thing had to be Inoculated except the rookies? Oh, yes! Clover at the foot of each root has a little globule of 1, culation enhances its nitrogen-gathering qualities — and doubles it power. I now inoculate beans and other vegetables of the kind to help on the development to- ward bigger, better crops in every Georgette Crepe dered frills, aiso collars, rs do not allow sentiment to in- terfere with thelr jobs. “I don't permit myself to get at- tached to any of the animals that must later be killed,” she explained. | “I just tell myself that pigs must be) killed, even though they are the cun-| ningest little things that ever were | when they are young—and I even cut| them up myself. After all, you can't | tell Mary from Pinky when they are! both skinned and hung up for pork. All my cows are named from the J's, as Juliet, Juno, Julius and so on, but} the pigs are named after Indian prinves and princesses. They are all) pedigreed, for 1 found that it pays better to have on @ farm only such animals as read their title clear.” Miss Kellogg wears trousers of the | riding breeches variety, such as lace up the side and tuck into heavy sur- veyors' shoes, a khaki middy and a big hat when she ts at work on her farm, and never leaves off the gloves that are to keep her hands nice, 44] ALWAWS thank God when I get into trousers, they are #o much more convenient to work in,” she de- clares. “You almost have to have them on when you may at any mo- ment have to make a flying leap to the pig pen or climb a pole for the men who are doing the electric wiring. 1 never ask a man to do a thing on my farm that 1 would not do myself, and I do not recall that I ever have asked one to do anything that I have not already done myself at some time.” That Miss Kellogg believes in farming 48 a profession for women is evidenced by her great interest in the Farmingdale farmers of the Women's Section of the Navy League. She is a member of the league's Executive Council and has designed $1,000,000,000 SET AS NEW YORK’S AIM INLOAN CAMPAIGN Boy Scouts Start to Help in Final Drive With Wall Street Rally. ‘The Liberty Loan Committes to- day announced that. it expects the New York Federal Reserve district to raise one half of the $2,000,000,000 Liberty loan. It is already apparent, the committee declared, that New York has met its allotment of $600,- 000,000 and the campaigu for the re- maining four days will be concen- trated on raising the $400,000,000 nec- essary to reach the $1,000,000,000 mark. ‘Through Secretary Guy Emerson the committee issued this statement: “Announcements from Washington indicate that New York has practi. cally reached the total of $600,000,000 ment on the basis of $2,000,000,000 pri portionately divided among the twelve Federal Reserve districts. While this is gratifying to the Lib- the Liberty Loan Committee desires to say with the greatest emphasis that it has never set before itself a mark below $1,000,000,000, “Fifty million dollars has been raised outside of New York City and $638,000,000 in this city. On this basis it will be seen that over $400,000,000 must still be raised in this Federal Reserve district if the total amount of $2,000,000,000 desired from the coun- try as a whole is actually to be raised by Friday noon.” Inspired by talks from Mayor Mitchel, Frank A.
