ARBITRATION.


Congressman Kelfer's Plan For Settling
Labor Troubles "a Hoard OF ArbItra-
tlon Consisting of Five Members To he
Created.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-A plan for ad-
justing labor differences through ma
tional board OF arbitration has been
formulated by Representative Kiefer,
of Minnesota. The bill provides for
the appointment by the president Of
three commissioners of arbitration
The commissioner Of labor is made ex-
ofiicio a member Of the arbitration
board. The governor Of state in
which n labor controversy occurs is
also member. The board of arbitra-
tion thus consists OF five members. In
order TO secure the offices of the board,
application is first made TO the gov
ernor, the form Of application being
set forth in the bill. The application
may be made by employers or en-
ployes. In the latter case IL must be
in behalf of at least fifty employees Of
an organization having one thousand
members throughout the country. II
the governor is satisfied that a conflict
exists which can not be amica
bly, settled, he applies to the
national board Of arbitration To
take charge of the question. The
board assemblies in the state capitol,
hears evidence and arbitrates the diff
ferenees in the usual manner. Its de-
cisions are made as binding as those OF
a federal court of law. Provision is
also made for enforcing the decision OF
arbitration. Pending the hearings OF
the board the governor is clothed with
powers 10 preserve the peace and sup
press the strike.
Mr.. Kiefer appreciates that the state
right argument will be raised against
the bill. lie has conferred with mum
Der of lawyers, however, and he |,
hopeful of having the bill conform u
all constitutional requirements.

The Cornstalk Disease.

Cornstalk disease among cattle has
become very prevalent. There must be
cause, and there ought to be rem
edy. Some say it is smut; others say
it is a scarcity of salt and water; others
that it is too much corn. Following is
a Kansas farmers opinion on the sub
ject as expressed in the Iowa Home
stead
Now. there are two things which |
have observed-one is that there was an
unusual amount of smut on the stalks
this year; the other, that it has been an
unusually dry fall aud winter. The
shucks, which constitute the principal
feed that cattle eat, have been unusual
ly dry and tough. We never hear of
horses dying this way, and ii will be
observed that instead of eating the
shucks and hunting the smutty nubbins
of corn that are left they will spend
their time picking up fodder. AS rem
edy fed the cattle some other Kind of
feed once day-grass, hay straw. fod-
der or whatever was most convenient.
But what we will have TO come To, and
the sooner the better, is cutting our
corn mp. Ten acres of fodder will win
ter as many cattle as go acres of stalks.
One acre of fodder will keep yearling
steer six months at a cost of 90 cents
per month for cutting, hauling and feed
ing. This amounts to So in six months.
Now, is not that cheaper than paying
$2 for six acres of stalks and losing 8
per cent Of your cattle, as think has
been the case in this section this winter

Prevention of Potato soab.

The best method of treatment known
for the destruction of the germs of the
fungus of the potato scab seems TO be
the corrosive sublimate treatment en-
ployed by Bolley and others. 1t must
be borne in mind that corrosive subli-
mate is powerful poison if taken inter
nally. and none of the solution should
be poured out near wells or where fowls.
stock, etc, can obtain any of il, nor
should the vessels be used accidentally
for any other purpose. The solution of
the strength employed will do no harm
externally on the hands, but great care
should be used not TO get any Of it into
the mouth.
Treatment Corrosive sublimate can
be bought at drug stores i'll the form of
crystals. Two and one-fourth ounces of
these crystals should be dissolved in a
few gallons IF hot water and enough
cold water added to make 10 gallons of
the solution; the whole should then be
well stirred Ia preparing che solutions
and treating the seed use wooden vessels
only. Two barrels, with wooden fau-
Gets, are convenient, the solution being
drawn from one to the other whenever
it is desired to remove the potatoes. The
potatoes may also be put into sack and
dipped into the solution. The same solu
ton may be used repeatedly. The whole
tubers. after first being washed, should
be placed in the solution for IL hours,
then spread out to dry and cut and
planted as usual.

SEEDING TO CLOVER.
The Popular Custom Is to Sow the Seed
Grain In the Spring.
As a renoyator pa soils and FOR keeI

AS n renoyatOr OF soils and for keep
ing up thor fertility clover stands pre-
eminent. The common custom is to
SOW the seed in the spring among
wheat, which. with the usual rotation
Of crops, is perhaps tho most available
method. Excellent results have been
produced by narrowing the wheat ia tho
spring as soon rs the ground is suifi-
GENTLY dry to venture on il with a horse.
Sow the clover seed before or after har-
rowing. The favorable effects on both
seed and wheat generally outbalance by
far the small amount Of wheat that is
destroyed by narrowing, says one sue
Cessiul farmer.
An Iowa farmer, writing in Hoard 8
Dairyman, III reply to thequestion, I" Can
clover DO successfully grown by seeding
alone in the spring on freshly plowed
ground2' says: Il would advise a light
sowing OF rye-about three-fourths
bushels per acre. My soil is light
sandy, deep loan, with sandy subsoil,
and have never failed 10 secure good
stand of clover when sown early with
rye.
A Wisconsin farmer replies to the
foregoing query as follows: with ia
vorable spring and thorough prepara-
ton of the soil good results may be
looked for, although the method is not
wholly successful and apt to result in a
light crop the tiIst year. The ground
should not be plowed deeper than three
or four inches, and would use the disk
harrow rather than pillow. The surface
should be made fine and compact before
seed is sown. Four quarts of medium
red clover seed per acre is sufficient.
AT time of sowing apply 100 pounds of
land plaster to the acre. The seed should
be lightly narrowed and rolled unless
on very sandy soil. In that case har-
row more thoroughly and do not roll,
thus holding the soil from blowing away
and exposing the seed, as it will often do
on sandy soil made smooth.
81 much prefer, however, to seed to
clover with grain. The labor required
to fit piece for clover makes fine
seed bed for grain. AT the same time
the young plants are often protected IL
early spring by the growing grain. IL
my experience of II years with clover,
and / have tried all methods, never
fail TO get good stand when sown very
early in spring on rye or winter wheat.
"All clover sown in this way last
spring beat the drought, while that sown
with spring grain was all lost.

From the advance sheet of Labor
Commissioner Morse's report, we
take the following which shows to
what an alarming extent the indus
tries of Michigan have been crippled
by one year of democratic rule. The
report says: In 2,o66 factories in.
spected, it was found that LILY were
running full time, 572 part time,
while 81 were idle. AT the time of
the inspection there were employed
COLTS males and 1880 females,
while if running to full capacity AZ,
1852 more would be employed. AT
the same time those employed loose
2o per cent. of their time by only
working part time, aud to this can
be added a reduction of 9.5 per cent.
in wages since April /, 1893. 1t is
hard to comprehend what this i'm.
meDse loss of time means to the fac
tory laborers of the state. 1t means
besides reduction in wages, total
loss of l,763,0 900 days in five months
(from September 1, to February /,
1894, which is equivalent to e7,sll
months, in about two-thirds of the
factories of the state. 1t is no won.
der that factory operatives viewed
with alarm the opening of winter,
but it is wonder that so little public
charity has been called for in behalf
OF this most estimable class of
citizens.
