ABOUT THE BREWERS.

Local Union No. l, Salt Lake City,
Brewers and Masters was organized I'M
der a charter granted by the Utah Fed
Grated Trades Council, Sept. ist 1889 with
a membership of 46, and reorganized as
Local Union No. Ga under a charter
granted by the National Union of United
Brewery Workers of the United States
May 18th 1891.
We are proud to state that all brewers
at work in this city and vicinity are men,
pers of this union.
AT the inception of this union brewers
We're working from a. m. to p. M.
with an allowance of one hour for dinner,
and wages were considerably less than at
present. AT the present time, brewers
work 10 hours per day and receive from
500 to $40 per month. This we consider
The best argument that can be used in
favor of unionism. Nor can our enemies
prove that this concession to US in the
matter of hours and wages is derogatory
10 their interest as employers, because
it is a fact, that while the hours of labor
have been reduced, and wages increased,
30 men today are manufacturing as much
beer as 40 formerly did. We thus see that
by reducing the hours by about % per
cent. it has increased the efficiency of the
men 80 per cent.
A prominent brewer of this city has
stated that the result has been accom-
plished by bulldoZing. If such is the case,
the mora bulldozing he is subjected to
the better he will find himself financially.
But this gentleman, unmindful of this
fact, and in common with others of the
wealthy class, seems to regard his work.
men as merely a part of the complicated
machinery by which he makes his money;
and for being a little less pliable, "a
little less submissive than the balance of
the machine, he dislikes them, and would,
if possible, fetter them until they learn
their Duty
When the laborer asserts that there is
no wealth, save that created by labor,
his cry is ignored; and should he, by
chance force hearing, he is set down as
an anarchist and quietly disposed of.
In the last twenty years the feeling of
unity and brotherhood which once pre-
vailed between employer and employed
has disappeared, and in its place has come
a feeling that there are two classes, and
the wealthy are bending all their energies
to accentuate and emphasize this fact.
The rich deny by deed and word that
there is any fellowship between them and
a poor laborer. They hold no communi-
cation. and discourage association. There
is no branch of workmen who regret this
fact more than the brewers and masters.
And while We will use our utmost en-
deavors to secure TO the workmen in our
trade sufficient remuneration for their
services. and guarantee TO their families
such education and comforts as are requis-
tie to their welfare, we will strive to
render such service to our employers as

THE INFINITE LOVE OF GOD.
ILLUSTRATED IN THE SACRIFICE
OF HIS son.
This Horny Handed Layman Has No
Respect for People Who Are
Christians just Because They
Dare Not Be Anything Else.

The text to which 1 invite your careful
and considerate attention this morning is
that passage of the scriptures which says
THAT God so loved the world that He
gave His only begotten Son, that whose
believed on Him should not perish. but
have everlasting life
I have selected this passage because it
tells not of the wrath of the infinite. Be-
cause it conclusively proves that the di-
vine plan of redemption, as it is common
ly designated by the theologians, is based
on love alone There is no threat or men
ace; the terrors of the wrath to come are
hot held up to menace US but in lieu
thereof we are informed that He who
rules the universe is a being of love.
That love described here is beyond the
comprehension of mortal man. 1t is Of a
more intense character than any feeling
which inspires any of US. Arrogate to
ourselves as we may the right to say
that we love the Father SO . fervently
that we are willing to make any sacri-
fee in His behalf, we belle ourselves
when we make the statement. There is
a limit to human love; there is, according
to this truth. none to the divine. The
Nazarene himself stated this when he

said Greater love hath no man than
this, that he lay down his life for his
friend
A man might, under certain circum-
stances sacrifice himself for the benefit
of others, but who among all this con-
gregation to whom 1 am speaking would
go one step farther? Which Of you faith
ers and mothers who are sitting here to-
day would consent to offer one of your
children to save the life or the honor OF
an acquaintance? Not one. Especially is
this true of those whose earthly hopes
and joys are centered in but one child.

that He gave His only begotten Son"
From His throne Of grandeur and ma
jesty: from the paradise where angels
and archangels sing their everlasting
songs of glory; where the sunshine Of
peace is never hidden by a cloud; where
joy reigns through all the cycles Of an
eternity which cannot be conceived by the
puny mind of the creatures who walk the
earth, He sent His only son to be born
of lowly parentage; to live lowly life
and to die at last a felons death.
And all this that man whom he loved
might have everlasting life.
There is a lesson in all this. 1t teaches
us that in order to convince the erring
we must draw them to us with a chain OF
gold instead of iron; that the silken cord
is better than the hempen rope. We must
picture to them not the terrors Of an
everlasting hell of fire where the worm
dieth not, but tell them of that better
condition which awaits out beyond the
stars.

ing. 10 per cent. of space can be saved
by laying it off to be planted in the
triangular form; the first row being
laid off the same as in the square
method but opposite the intervals in
the first row, and the same distance
from the trees in the first row as they
are from each other. For example-if
the trees are so feet apart in the row
the trees in the second row will be
just so feet from the those in the first,
thus bringing the rows only about %
feet apart.
Cultivation.
Another point too commonly over
looked is the cultivation and care of
the orchard. Many people seem to
think that all the care necessary is to
allow the orchard to grow up to weeds.
Very few people would expect to raise
good. corn or potatoes in this manner,
yet they are surprised if their orchards
do not do we'll under this treatment.
The orchard should be cultivated the
same as any other crop, and while the
proper method is to give clean culture
and not grow any other crops with the
trees, it is probably, as a rule, safer
method to grow crops between the
trees, and under no circumstances
should a grain crop be grown in an
orchard, nor under ordinary condi-
tons should a grass crop be grown in
young orchard. If other crops are
grown in connection with the orchard
it should be annually fortified to the
extent of the fertility removed by the
growing of the crop. AS the trees be-
come larger and the roots take more
fully possession of the land the grow
ing of crops should be discontinued.
The orchard should be plowed at least
once a year, preferably in the spring,
blowing very shallow next to the
trees. During the remainder of the
year all weeds and grass should be
kept down by cultivation.
How Best to Irrigatc.
In reference to orchard irrigation, I
believe too much water is applied to
our orchards, and in a very wrong
manner. Frequent irrigations of the
surface of the soil are not sufficient for
good results on trees. Not enough
water is applied at one time to reach
the deeper roots, and as a result, while
the surface soil may be perfectly moist
the deeper soil is quite dry and the
trees present a. sickly appearance. Sur
face irrigation is conducive to great
evaporation and loss of moisture. My
plan of irrigating an orchard is to ap-
ply enough water at one time to reach
the deeper roots and then retain that
moisture in the soil by cultivation and
keeping the surface Of the soil loose.
think the best method or applying wa
ter to this end is to block the orchard
off in squares, using for this purpose
an instrument made in the shape of a
Letter ''V," but open II to 16 inches at
the narrow end. Two planks are used
12x14 inches wide, 10 feet long. nailed
securely in the shape described. A

thought that way should not hesitate
to crafty every desire of my heart, cost
what it might
I said to myself right there and then
that 1 would rather be the free think
ing young man and face my
maker with the evidence of
my honest belief in my heart than she
that this life affords just because She was
afraid. And I have not got over it yet.
There are some people who still adhere
to the theory that beyond the grave there
is place of punishment that is so in
tense Units agony that nothing that hui
manity can conceive can compare with it.
l do not believe 1t. 1t is a hobby for
them, especially IN revival time to pic
ture the burning pit and warn all who do
not come to the foot of the cross right
there and then, that they are hung by a
hair and shaken by the breeze right over
this pot of woe. l renounce any such
suggestion. That there is a place of
punishment as well as reward I do not
hesitate to state. It is not possible for
all of us to walk right into heaven. And
some of you who are before me today
will wonder after death why you were
told to take the carriage you arrived at
your destination in. You will surely.
In the days when this doctrine was
taught, men were not as they are now.
That spirit of love which now prevails
to death in the most horrible ways. HUI
man life was valued very lightly. The
customs were so radical that radical
measures were necessary to change them.
And SO the Nazarene taught creed
had the burning pit and the other the
heaven of bliss. And 1 believe He had in
mind then the time when the former
creed would be obsolete, unnecessary.
AS time passed away the customs I
have referred to passed away also. No
longer does civilization advocate the
burning of men and women; no longer
does the cross with its thousands of vic
tins blot the landscape. But instead
thereof we have arrived al a period where
tolerance and charity are the ruling
powers.
1t is time now for we who are educated
to say I'VE will not be christians be-
cause we fear to do otherwise, but that
we will be christians because it is right
and we like it. Because we know that
if we are we shall be the better here
and in the life beyond. And beyond all
that sort of consideration we will be
christians simply because we know that
it will make our companions and our
friends happier and betteralso."
1t is time for us to say to others that
they too, should adopt this course.

ways cheapest in the long run to
select the best. I refer now TO the
character of the tree not to its variety.
We may have good trees and we may
have bad trees, whether we select
them of one, two, or three years
growth. In determining what varie-
ties to plant it is we'll to remember
that winter apples generally have the
best market, as they can be held for
a considerable time, and you are not
obliged to force them on the market
unless the price suits. They can be
sold at any time between November
and. March if the orchardist is fixed
for keeping them. Fall apples are
next in Importance because they also
can be kept for a considerable time ii
the market does not silt, but summer
apples must be sold IS soon as they
have matured, or they are a total loss,
unless dried, because il is impossible
to keep them any great length Of time.
In selecting varieties of apples it is
we'll to remember that, as a general
rule, the appearance Of an apple has
more to do in selling it than it's quail
ity. That is not as it should be, but
it remains true nevertheless. 4 red
apple will always sell better than a
green or white one. If 1t is of good
size SO much the better. The one ap-
probably the winter Pearmain, al
though it is green in color, slightly
red on one side, it is so we'll known
on the market that it always finds
sale. The Winesap also has a very
good name in Utah. In most places
it is a heavy bearer and an apple that
sells well on the market.
Assorted Paintings Best.
One very important point in planting
apple trees has been too much over
looked. 1 have heard people recon-
mend planting an orchard all to one
variety, but this is not a safe plan.
Many verieties of apples and pears do
not fertilize themselves well. The only
safe plan therefore is to plant at least
two varieties, not in blocks in different
sections of the orchard, but in altern-
ate rows, or three or four rows of one
kind, then three or four rows of the
other. While many varieties are self
fertile they are perfectly cross-fertile
when planted in contiguous rows.
