American Woman Suffrage
ssociation, left here today for
ishville, Tenn., to confer with
ffrage organizations in the camign
for ratification of the federal
ffrage amendment by the Tenissee
Legislature.
"It is not enough for Senator
arding to make an effort to secure
e 36th ratification," said Mrs.

aving here. "It is not enough to
>int to past performances. The Reiblican
party must finish the task,

"It is true," the statement, dear'ed,
"that the Republican party
is a record of nearly five times as
any ratifications as the Demoatic"
but without the 36th State
;hat record is like a great tail
ihout a kite."
"Apparently," it added, "it is the

b USE HONEY FOR SUGAR
IN PRESERVING FRUIT
,
[ Manhattan, Kan., July 17.?Kah- .
. sag bee keepers are solving the high
. cost of preserving fruit this year by
, substituting honey for sugar, ac.
cording to State bee inspectors
. who met here for a two-day conference
with Dr. J. H. Merrill, assistant
entomologist of the Kansas
experiment station.
While it requires slightly more
1 money, honey for preserving fruits,
'ihoa lr<mnorc nan cave mnno? no
' ing the product of bees since the
" cost of manufacturing it is almost
nothing, the inspectors pointed out.
* i They said thousands of dollars
worth of honey from the clover and
' alfalfa fields of the State goes to
waste annually because compara!
tively few farmers keep bees.
