UNEMPLOYED WORKINGMEN.

UNEMPLOYED WORKINGMEN.
There are no lack of theories as to
how the condition of the unemployed
working men can be ameliorated and
improved. 1t may be assumed as a
fact the number of working men, class.
ed as wage workers, is out of proper
tion to the population of the country.
Too largea proportion of workers are
depending for livelihood outside of
agriculture. The primitive employ
ment of the inhabitants in the early
days was agriculture. The filling, of
thesoil I'D all later times was depended
upon for the sustenance and support of
the people. It is only about fifty. years
since labor-saving machinery began to
come into use, superseding hand labor
on the farm. The number of workers
necessary to carry on a given amount
Of agricultural work has become sur
prisingly diminished. This reduced
demand for farm help was met for a
time by an increased demand for work.
ing men in the manufacturing indus
tries, but so great has become the tide
in that direction that there is now a
surplusage seeking employment in the
various mechanical trades. In most,
if not all the large cities, there are
now, and have been for some years
past, multitudes of unemployed men
DESTROYS to find work. We talk of, the
law of supply and demand as a self
adjusting regulator, but in this case it
does not quiet the disturbance; the
present excess of laborers cannot be
provided for on the principle of supply
and demand. The country is over.
stocked with most kind of mechanical
and manufactured goods. or at least
there is no general disposition on the
part of manufacturers to enlarge their
operations while prices rule so low.
Any great improvement in the demand
for laboring men can hardly be expect
ed in the present condition of affairs.
There is probably no safer remedy to
relieve the embarrassment of the I'M
employed working men than to turn
their attention to the pursuit of agri-
culture. This is unwelcome advice to
thousands who are now out of work;
a strong attach ment to towns and
cities leads them to forego the com4l
forts of life they might possess if they
would choose their reliance on mother
earth,' from whence is derived all the
wealth and luxury of kings and peas-|
ants. 1t is said that the natives born
and reared in New York city prefer to |

THE PULPIT AND THE PRESS

Inc pupil ana the press are the Two
great controlling powers of the civil
lied world. They fashion public senti-
ment, and are the chief propelling
forces in the march of progress. Great
changes have taken place in the atti-
tude of the pulpit and the newspaper
press towards each other within the
past quarter of century. Not that
there were antagonisms between them
heretofore, but that they were more
reserved and more careful not to trench
on each others domain. The religious
newspapers were once regarded the
only proper medium for the publica-
ton of religious intelligence; the secu-
lar papers, so called, published religious
news only sparingly, unless of more
than ordinary interest. Sometimes a
sermon delivered on an extraordinary
occasion was printed in the village or
city paper, but commonly by request.
Now the leading city journals gather
the religious items of news rs indus
triously as the religious press. 1t has
become common in Chicago and New
York for the leading daily papers to
furnish their readers on Monday morn
ings a page or less Of reported sermons
delivered on the preceding Sunday
These are usually the productions of
talented clergymen of all denomina-
tions. The pulpit and the press are no
longer divorced, as they once were.
There are but few people in these days
so absurdly constituted as to take Of
fence on seeing sound religious. arti.
Gle in apolitical newspaper.
In these later times the reports of
the proceedings of religious conyen-
tions are given as fully in the secular
newspapers as in the UNCONVENTIONAL
religious. The progress of religious
changes throughout the world iis,no-
ticed and given publicity in the daily
papers. Any one DESTROYS of keeping
posted in the general religious move.

understanding of the worlds condition

might we'll be dispensed with. The

no other channel of intelligence sup

Is Life What We Make II?
BY BEBE.

Each one will at some period in his
life ask himself the question: "Is life
what we make itP' And at the very
beginning we find a complication Of OBJ
stacles which prevent us from immcdi-
ately and definitely answering this ques-
tion.
''ls life what We make it?" No, and
yes. In the first place our lives are all
more or less madc-up of joys, sorrows
and disappointmonts; do We bring on
these sorrows of our own accord? are
we responsible for our disappointmcnts?
Would we not, were it in our power,
possess all the joys-health and wealth
Necessary for happy cxistcncc9 But
you say that is not the "natural order
of things" ] answer again, no, and
yes; 'if life is what we make IL, would
We not all make it success? You say
we do; say we try to, but never sue
ceed. You take the 50,O0O,OOO citizens
of this country, and l venture 20 say
that you will not find one in ten who
is not or does not wish for something
or the other. Then l ask, is life the
success we wish it? We might say that
with tho downfall of man, dating way
back in the beginning of our history,
sorrow came into the world; true, and
it has existed ever since; we arc all born
in sin, consequently We are all un-
| happy. Are We responsible for being
born in this condition? Must We be
| blamed, MS 1t were, for the sins commit
ted in the first days of man? But to go
back, If we arc born in sin, we are, as q
result, born in sorrow, and from this
point Of view life is NOT what we make
it," One, or everyone of us, can in a
measure control the actions of our lives:
that is, to the extent of living happy
| christian life, in this one respect only is
life really what we make it," further
than this ! do not agree with former
writer's that 'to the happy, the world is
happy; to the gloomy, the world is

know full well, that sickness and disease
aiilict us, not because we wish it, but
| because it is the natural order of
things" One can not see n loving
mother or a kind father, or sister or
brother go down TO death without being
overcome with the most intense feelings
of sorrow: do VIC bring this sorrow on
of our own free will? Would we sec
loving parent go down by ''thc valley of
the shadow of death and walk beside
the still waters" if we could help 1t !;
would we see n brother or sister close
their eyes in that ''last long sleep which
knows no waking" could We prevent
it? You concur with me, and answer
mo" AS | said before, ''life is what
we make it" only in respects to our
leading an honest, sober and christian
life; to the extent that this will make us
happy, only will ''life be what we make
| it," further than this we are in the
hands of the natural order of things"
and if sickness, sorrow and disappoint-
ments are to be our lot, so shall it be. /

How to Keep Farm Herd. Books.

There are numerous systems of keep
ing farm herd-books. Every anima
may have a number given consecutively
as purchased or dropped. This is 1
simple, good way. Each one has ful
page, or two pages, in the herd-bool
devoted to him or her, with record ei
number, birth, color, and markings, sire
and dam, and former owners, with space
for times Of service, dates of birth oi
Offspring, with names and numbers OF
the same.
As few cows have more than ten
calves, in small herds the cows may
receive decimal numbers: L., TO-, 20,
80, etc. Then when they have calves,
these receive the following numbers in
each decade. The first calf of No. /.
will be >. The third calf of No. 20. will
be %. The fifth calf of 10, will be 10,
and so on. Now if the stock bulls receive
letter in place of the regular number,
this letter may be used with the number,
and the calf's sire and dam will be indi-
Gated by the mark. Thus, B %, upon
a tag, would indicate that the bull "B"
was the sire, and that the COW 80 was
the dam, and that this was her forth
calf. There are other systems, but few,
if any, simpler or more useful than this
but It is only applicable to herds Of less
than ten.
Another system, based upon the same
idea, gives letters to the cows of the
breeding herd, and numbers preceding
the letters to the stock bulls, while the
numbers following the letters identify
the particular calves. Thus, . d might
indicate the same animal which by the
previously described system we num-
bered, b -, aRd the same as A %.
