People are in the habit of poking all
sorts Of fun at the walking delegate,
but they forget the same idea pervades
the administration of nearly every par
ty or organization that relies on num-
bers to give force and strength to it's
edicts, or that finds it necessary to
maintain discipline in order to carry
out it's own purposes. We find the fol-
lowing item, says the Pueblo Courier,
in one of the great dailies: -
Representative Tawney, of Mime
sofa, has been selected as the whip on
the Republican side of the lDuse. His
business will be to arrange pairs, to see
that his republican colleagues are on
a general oversight of legislation. 1t
is position that carries a great deal
Of labor and anxiety, as we'll as honor
and glory"
Now we submit that Representative
Tawney is nothing more nor less than
a walking delegate, as the term is or
dinarily understood in connection with
labor organizations. Or, to put it in
another way, the walking delegate in
a labor organization is nothing more
nor less than a party whip" They
are both appointed to do the same kind
Of work. If a whip" is necessary to
force the members in the great repub-
lican party to do their duty, and not
throw the party interests at the
critical time, then a walking delegate
or whip" is also necessary in the labor
organization in order to stiffen up the
backbone of some of the more thought
less members and to keep them posted
as to what is going on in the ranks.
One Of the duties of the party whip
is to see that the members are on hand
when they are wanted. That is some
times necessary in labor organizations.
Another duty of the party whip is to
see that the opposition does not cap
ture the vote Of the lukewarm mem
bers. thus losing measure that other
wise would have been gained: This Is
also one Of the great objects soug htyto
be obtained by the appoint men as OF. a

There is a difference between the
journeymen plasterers Of Minneapolis
and the master plasterers, and the re-
suit is that none of the craftsmen are
at work this week. A new schedule
has been prepared by the plasterers'
union. This provides for the same pay
as was allowed last year, but for a
shorter day. The contractors believe
that the schedule is unjust, and they
do not propose to submit to it without
modification. On the other hand the
journeymen say they ask for less work
simply that their work might be done
better, for, while' an amateur can
throw any amount of plaster on wall
it takes a skilled employee to give the
work finished appearance. The con-
tractors issued an edict that no men
should go to work Monday, and any
contractor violating this will be fined,
which results in a lockout. There has
been no change in the situation, the
men all remaining firm. 1t is not
known how many men are out.

Mrs. Martha 4. Shute. formerly sec

the last report of the board made un.
der her administration. In the report
are many essays by authorities. Mrs.
shute. in her Introductory, says:
THE first part of the year was char
acterlzed by exceptional cold in diff
ferent sections which damaged fruit
buds somewhat. besides doing injury
to young orchards. The low tempera-
ture lesscncd the prospective yield OF
fruits and resulted in low net returns
to the owners in some localities. In
some sections the crop was exception.
ally good.
Much effective work has been done
to lessen the spread of insects injurious
TO tree and plant life. 1t Is only by
the strict enforcement of the insDec-
tion law and the regulations as pre-.
scribed by the state board that fruit
and trees can be kept clean. IS.
"The acreage in tree planting was
somewhat less than during the year of
1893. The coming year will see larger

II Will not. as a general thing, pay
to subsoil for grail. crops. With the
low price Of the cereals the Increase
must be very considerable to pay cost
OF the extra work. The work OF sub
soiling Is very great. the subsoller hav-
ing 20 be hauled by from four to six
horses according to construction OF the
subsoil. There arc however some To-
caiities where subsoilins for grains
will pay. This will depend on good
many circumstances that cannot be
pointed out specifically. For in
stance there are subsoils that are not
hard to stir up. There are farms
where the arrangements are such that
the men and horses have idle time,
and in such cases the subsoi!ins will
not be very expensive. Then too we
must make distinction between the
sections of country where the rainfall
Is fairly good and the sections Of
country where the aridity Is SO great
that there Is little or no w;,ter to hold.
1t is believed that subsoilins IL more
effective where the rainfall is fairly
good than where the rainfall is very
slight. This is because the subsoiilng
makes 1t possible for the ground to
hold more water and part of the
heavy precipitations is caught AMI held
in the reservoir that would otherwise
run of. In the case of semi-arid lands
the water seldom falls in such quanti-
ties that the soil cannot retain it.

This Is very much less than 1t would
be had the great orange groves rot
been cut down by the severe cold spells

1t is reported that there is quite a

A writer says that Florida suffers
more damage from frost than any other
state. The cold waves this spring have
killed large quantities of early fruits
and vegetables. Beans and egg plants
were extensively destroyed. In the
midst of some of the vegetable gardens
the thermometer dropped to about 20
below the freezing point. Florida IS

This lack OF protein taesh and blood
