TRELLIS FOR BERRY BUSHES.

danger here lies chiefly in neglect to
do the work thoroughly and in proper
season. 1 do dislike to see the tangled
masses of prickly branches SO often
found in larger patches. For the home
garden, however, there is no excuse to
allow this state of affairs. A good
trellis can easily be provided for the
small patch of berry bushes, and it will
pay many times its original cost in the
greater attractiveness of the garden, in
convenience of gathering the fruit, and
in satisfaction generally. Make your
arrangements for another fruiting sea-
son accordingly. The illustration of
trellis shows how Mr.. Charles Green
imagines plants of the Loudon (now
claimed to be one of the best of red
raspberries) to appear when supported
by the trellis.-American Gardening.

FOR BERRY BUSHES.

Trellis Suitable for q Small Patch of
Raspberries.
A good trellis for raspberry and
black berry bushes is shown in the &C
companying sketch. Here we have
only single strands of wire, and the
bushes must be tied to them in some
way. The trellis, therefore, although
cheaper than the double trellis, is
hardly as convenient, but it will an
swer, and surely makes a little patch
of raspberries or blackberries appear
neat and tidy. When blackcaps are
grown for evaporating purposes, as a
farm crop, they must of necessity be
grown cheaply, and spending lot
of money for posts and wires is entire
ly out of the question. Close pruning
is the only practicable method of
keeping the bushy growth within
bounds, and providing convenient
chances for gathering the berries. The

Labor Helping Employers.

Owing to the depression of business
and the desire of the Glass trust to close
factories, the Chambers Glass company
found it hard work to keep their estab-
ishment in full operation. Ready funds
were required, and the banks were un-
willing to provide them. 1t was at this
juncture the officers of the Window
Glass Workers association stepped in
with proposition to supply the neces-
sary capital. The treasury of this asso-
citation contained 100000, and a loan of
900 was made to the Chambers COM
pany. By this assistance the glass COM
pany is able to retain it's full force, pay
the usual wages and run on full time.
The officers of the labor organization
are so well pleased over the result of
their action that they are seriously think
ing of assisting other antitrust concerns
BY putting these factories in active oper-
alton they think they will force the Glass
trust concerns to abandon their present
policy and to reopen their establish
ments. By destroying this artificial state
Of affairs the glass trade will be most
materially benefited, and money that is
now tied up by reason of the trusts ac-
ton will be placed in circulation.

Professor PeabOdy's Plan.

Professor Francis q. Peabody of Har-
ward university delivered an interesting
lecture the other night in Assembly hall,
New York, on the Educational Side of
Charitable Work." He said the tendency
of population was toward the cities. I'm
less there were some compensating eff1ux
the social fabric in our cities would be-
come rotten. This, Professor Peabody
said, was the main reason why the worst
conditions of poverty were to be found
in cities
To keep the social circulation pure and
healthy an eff1ux must be established,
and his plan was to found colonies in the
country made up of the poor of the city
This alone, he said, would relieve the
cities of their congestion. His plan was
to divide the colonies into two classes,
voluntary" and Involuntary" In the
former there would be those who were
able and willing to work, and in the lat
ter would be those who were unwilling
to work or unable to work through weak
ness brought on by vice. Inducements
should be made to keep the first class
away from the cities, and some coercive
measures might be used to keep the in
voluntary class in the colonies.

Tramps In GERMANY.

In Germany it is contrary to law for
any person to be unemployed for long
er period than six weeks without making
persistent efforts to find something to do.
Any neglect of this law subjects the idle
one to penalty of arrest and confne-
ment in the workhouse for from two
weeks to six months. Any one found
begging is subject to summary treatment
in the same manner.
Suppose tramp is trudging along a
country road; he is liable to be overtaken
at any moment by a mounted policeman.
who overhauls him and demands to see
the certificate from his last employer
that he is bound to carry with him. If
he has none, he is at once placed under
arrest, and if he has one and it is dated
back longer than six weeks the same
treatment is dealt out to him. An or
ganization exists for the execution of this
law. It is known as the Verein Gegen
Bettelei. The members of this society
have iron signs attached to their doors,
the effect of which is to keep away all
beggars. When tramp sees one of
those signs, he shuns that house as he
would plague.-Chicago Post.

Strikes In Germany.

Working hours in Germany are as a
rule very long and are subject to great
fluctuations. The chief factory inspector
of Bavaria says that in many factories
the hours of labor are not the same every
year, or even day by day, but are subject
to manifold changes. Strikes are most
frequent where social democracy is most
powerful, and it does not appear that
wages are especially low in the districts
in which they are most frequent. They
usually begin in the spring, when the
seasonal trades are making fresh adjust
ments of wages. Negotiations prior to
the strike are usually fruitless, but about
the second week both sides begin to give
way. At the end of each successive
week the number of men out diminishes,
and when the strike funds give out both
parties agree to compromise. The
membership of the local socialist body
usually shows a great increase just be-
fore strike. This is the course of Il
typical German strike AS a rule, strikes
are peaceably conducted. = London

The First Scale of Wages.

The earliest known scale of wages is
that fixed for the whole Roman empire
by the Emperor Diocletian in A. D. 3O3.
A shepherd was to be paid 20 cents a
day; day laborer and a mule driver re-
ceived the same as the shepherd; baker
got 40 cents, and the same was paid to
the masons and carpenters and smiths.
Stonecutters got so cents and painters GO
cents. A brickmaker got "a cents per
100 bricks; sheep shearer got SLIGO per
100 pounds. A common schoolmaster
received 60 cents a month for each pu-
pill; one who taught Greek or geometry,
g per month. A lawyers fee was $12
