Saturday night brought out its usual quota
of disturbances by reason of the indulgence
in fire water which the money distributed at
the pay offices at the collieries enabled some
people to get within reaching distance of.
Several fights resulted during the night, but
although some of the participants were badly
beaten, or otherwise injured, none suffered
dangerously. One of the most notable ARRAYS
occurred at a meeting of the Salvation Army.
A quarrel arose between two of the mem
bers and became so bot that one woman
tainted and others shfieked with fright.
Officers of the army attempted to eject the
participants, but failed. The Captain Of the
army extinguished the lights and a second
attempt at ejectment was made with success.
The meeting was then re-opened and pro
ceeded without further disturbance. Shortly
after the fighters INDUCED in IA battle on the
hill and one Of them was badly beaten. The
other claims the fight on a foul.

For Farmers to Study.


Three years ago s. per cent. of the
wheat which Europe procured abroad
came from America. Last year our pro-
portion had shrunk to 80 per cent. That
is. our contribution to the European mar
ket is both absolutely and relatively de-
clining. III .1Ta
What is the remedy for this? There
can be no remedy which looks to Europe.
Europe will buy our wheat only when
she can get it more cheaply than it can
be produced by Russian serfs and Indian
ryots. The American farmer cannot
hope to compete on such terms with the
foreign farmer who hires his labor for
three cents day or Jokes his wife to the
pillow alongside his oxen. If the Ameri-
can farmer is driven out of the European
market-and that he is being driven out
Of it these figures establish beyond ques-
tion-he must turn TO the home market
for relief. 1t would be well for him if he
had turned 10 it long ago instead Of
blindly following the export ignis fatuus.
The foreign operative may or may not
buy and consume the products of Ameri-
can farms the American operative, bet
ter paid and better fed, is certain to con-
sumo them. The American operative
does not eat wheat from the Black Sea or
the Rio Plata, or cattle or beef from
Australian ranges He buys these things
at home, and he buys there, too, his milk
and eggs and cheese and vegetables.
Thus il is that it is estimated that while
in England each factory workman con-
sumes only 81 az worth OF products OF
American agriculture every year, each
factory workman in Massachusetts, con-
sumes more than 500 worth Of these
American products.
Which is the better customer of the
American farmer Where lie the farmers
interests-in encouraging manufacturing
abroad or manufacturing at home?

Next Years Garden.

1t does not pay to wait until spring to
begin the gnden. The manurirg and
much of the fitting of the soil can be best
done in the fall. If coarse manure is
used, pillow the garden and apply the
manure after blowing on the surface. If
warm weather follows heavy rains pillow
the garden second time and turn the
manure under. This will insure a more
thorough pulverization of the soil by frost
the coarse manure at the bottom of the
furrow holding the soil up so that the
frost can get into it more effectively.
Towards spring an application of com
mercial fertilizers mixed with the surface
soil will fit it for producing any garden
crop.

Stabling Cows in Wet Weather.

There is not much grass to be got in
the fields in November, and what there is
will be found frost bitten and nea ly
worthless. The cows will lose more in
tramping through the fields than what
they VIII get there will benefit them.
They should be kept in the yard during
warm days, and stabbed at night or when
ever there is wet weather. There is al.
way sudden decline in milk yield about
this time of the year. 1t is most often
the result of deficient or innutritous feed
and wet or cold weather An old farmer
of our acquaintance says that he would
net allow his cows to eat ost.bitten
heritage, because not only the amount but
the quality of the milk they give will be
impaired If the milk yield is lessened
at this time of the year, it is impossible to
feed so as to restore it to what it was.
Extra feed, when given after the milk
yield has lessened, is more apt to result
in fattening the animal and thus impair
ing her value as a mixer.

HER ALARM CLOCK.
And why She Had Good Reason For BE-
ing Incensed Against It

Ing Incensed Against It
a suburban woman not long since
purchased an alarm clock. 1t was fat
nickel plated little affair with the Gus
tomary gong atop. The woman got the
clock because she felt an overwhelming
desire to play the role Of the early bird.
That night, therefore, she set the time
piece according to the specified direc-
tons. But for some reason or other the
clock failed to go off. The woman gave
it a second trial Again it played her

eler He said the clock was outrageous

honesty of any individual who would

administer for the sum of 10 cents. The
clock original cost had been 81. 90.
The night that it came back from the
So burban jeweler the woman wound it
up with feeling of unassailable secur
ity. This time the role of the early bird
would be hers for certain. The next
morning, however, it failed to go off,
Just as before. The woman took ii back

it with an Il told you that clock was

the troublesome timepiece to the city
jeweler from whom she had first pur-
chased it. He declared the clock to have
been all right until ruined by the
suburban jeweler, but consented to re-
pair it-also to charge 81 for so doing.
The woman then bore it home in tri-
umph.
Next morning, though, the same old
drama was enacted, and the woman was
once more unable to assume the role of

might have sworn. AS it was, she con-

Our Sporting Blood Gets Too
Warm.

Is there not a certain defect of gayety
IN contemporary sport? We Americans
seem, nowadays, to take ours excessive
ly hard. We take some of our soberer
matters very easily. We giggle over
heresy trials. and have endless patience
Tor the shortcomings of politicians; but
we hold our breath over the reports of
football games and yacht races, and lose
our sleep over intricacies in the manage
ment of those events. We worried near
~ IA much last September over the in
ternational yacht races rs our fathers
did generation ago over Mason aud
Slidell and the 4 flair Of the Trent. Let
Us common people, who do not claim the
lofty title Of sportsmen, endeavor to
look on at sport with somewhat more
equanimity aud take it easier in all it's
forms. If it is not enjoyable let US try
to ignore it and amuse ourselves with
erOquet and zone old cat" and simple
diversions that we can understand. II
sport cannot take care of itself, so far as
it concerns us, let US let it go 10 the dogs
and stay with the dogs until it is fit for
better company. They say we spoiled
the yacht races because we would persist
in crowding in to see them. They say
we have injured football by precpitate
curiosity of the same sort. 1t is pity
to subject ourselves to such complaints.
There is disease that is vulgarly very

to representatives of the American
people; sportsmen of recognized stand
ing tower up so high that mere states
men are dwarfed beside them. When
that sort of thing happens sport gets
empty and tiresome; runs to rhetoric

and gets to be a burden and an annoy

it out of our minds and go about our

the winter mixed with other roots and
some grain meal. This will make a more
rapid ard healthful growth than will a
diet of grain alone. Cooked potatoes are
also good food for poultry in winter,
though it will need wheat or cut bone to
make ration for egg production. The
potato has its nutritive value chiefly in
making heat and fat, as it is mainly COM
