Running Time OF Two of Ciark's Kearney
Thread Mills Greatly Reduced.
In two OF the mills OF the Clark Thread Com
pany at Kearney. " j.. the working time has
been reduced from flfty-nve hours per week to
forty hours by closing entirely on Saturday
and at o'clock on the other week days.
These mills are Nos. 2 and 3. and employ
about LOO hands. half OF whom are piece
workers. The others. who are working for
stated wages. 1t Is said. will not be affected by
the cut IN time.
The order was posted on Wednesday after
noon IN the Kearney mills and created < en- eral
surprise. When the news reached the New
ark m Ills OF tho com pany there was some little
appreheps sion that the same course would be
taken there. but this was allHyed by the as
Surance that 1t was not contemplated any
where except in Kearney.
Assistant Treasurer J. W. Clark said yester-
day that the reduction was due to tine fact that
the mills had overstockcd the company with
certain sizes of thread which combined with
the general dulness Of trade. had made de-
crease Of output necessary, As soon as the
stock on hand begins to diminish. he said. the
mills would again run on full time. He said
that the stringency in the money market did
not affect the com pany and there was no pros
poet OF q general shut down.
The mills which are affected are those In
which the long strike Of tho spinner5 occurred.

When she walked out, she was laughed

Question and Answer.

Which of the following courses will
be more profitable: 1. TO keep 20 cows,
selling the milk at 81 cents quart, using
the manure, one-half on the meadow and
one-half for cultivated crops; or, 2, to
keep 10 COWS with milk at the same price,
putting all the manure on the cultivated
ground, and buying Canada wood ashes
at $14 ton and selling the hay which
the COWS in the first case would eat at
SIG Connecticut.
Answer-No man can answer such a
question fairly. There are too many
conditions that an outsider cannot COM
prehend. There is very little money in
milk at 81 cents per quart. Rye straw
and potatoes both ought to sell fairly
we'll with you. We understand that Con-
necticut farmers do not grow potatoes
enough to fill all the Connecticut mouths.
If YOU have land that is suitable for moth
ing out pasture, keep your 10 COWS on
that. Build silo and put all your stable
manure on ensilage corn, following the
corn with potatoes, using SoO POUNDS or
more of a complete fertilizer. Then sow
wheat or rye and seed to grass with
clover in the spring. You can sell most
of your hay and your rye straw. The
ensilage, with some clover hay, will feed
the cows, with cottonseed meal and
other grain. This will give you milk,
potatoes, rye straw and hay for cash
crops. This is assuming that you have
a market for all these products. If you
have not, the plan must be changed
