strike Situation.

Philadelphia, Sept. l9.-If, as President
Mitchell Of the United Mine Workers
claimed, ll2,OOO Of the 600 mine
workers in the Pennsylvania anthracite
coal fields were idle, it is certain that
this Number was considerably augmented
Monday. Reports from the four big dis
tricts embracing the hard coal region arc
to the effect that fewer men are at work
today than were working yesterday, and
that collicries that worked full handed
on nearly so yesterday are either badly
crippled or shut down today.
The weather has grown much colder and
this change is greeted with enthusiasm
by the workers, who argue that the in
creased demand for coal will hasten the
adjustment of the difficulties between
them and their employers. Talk of ar.
btration is SO persistent that the hope
grows that this method of settling the
strike will finally be adopted, although
the mine owners declare they will dea

and the strike leaders say they will in

HI. strike In On.

Philadelphia, Sept. lS.-Reports from
the anthracite coal fields of this state
Indicate that the tie-up caused by the
strike for higher wages OF more than
i4O,DJU mine workers IS at least AS com
plete as the leaders Of the United Mine
Workers Of America, the organization
back Of the strike, claimed at any time.
Companies and individuals owning mines
who had claimed that their workings
would operate as usual, despite the strike
order, apparently reckoned without ac-
curate knowledge Of the attitude OF their
men, 1t is true that some properties in
the Hazelton region were working Monday
with as high as 50 per cent of the men
at work, nevertheless the greater number
of men in the district were idle
In the Scranton and Wilkesbarre dis
tricts the tie-up was practically com
plete.
As was expected the Schuylkill region
with Pottsville for a center point, was
at work with very few defections. These
men have not the same grievances that
prevail in the other districts, and if they
go on strike it will be largely through
sympathy.
President Mitchell of the United Mine
Workers, vino has established hearoquar.
tiers at Hazelton and is personally direct
ing the strike, estimates that over 100000
men struck and that 1900 more will
join them tomorrow.

Another Milking Machine.

Recently we illustrated a machine
which would milk single COW and
transfer the milk to a can. We now
show an apparatus which can be used
to milk whole herd Of cows at once,
needing but two men to operate the ma
chinery. One man Is stationed at the
reservoirs to watch the indicators and
operate the pumps when necessary, and
the other passes along the stalls, at
taching the teat cups and starting the
flow OF milk. At intervals are placed
receiving cans. which are connected
with the suction apparatus and also to
the teat cups. Direct pipes suspended
overhead connect the cans with the
vacuum boiler, and the teat cups are
also provided with vacuum arrange
ment. which prevents the suction from
taking too strong hold on the teat.

Oleo Formula.

Notwithstanding the protests Of the
oleo trust and its friends in Congress
the various formulas for making oleo.
margarine have been made public and
they are at least interesting. One of the
processes for making the kind Of butter
that Is sold in Pennsylvania as a dairy
product Is thus described In the patent
office records:
The process consists In first forming
soap emulsion OF the fats or fatty
oils with caustic soda: then precipI.
tate the Ives; then applying chlorinated
alkaline lye or chlorinated gas TO the
soap emulsion"

This is accomplished by forming the
teat cups with double walls and con-
Meeting the secondary vacuum system
with the pockets inside the cups, the
operator who attends the machinery
preserving the proper vacuum In each
set Of pipes to do the work without In
jury to the cows. Valves are provided
to start the milk flowing as soon as the
cups are fixed In place. With the new
machine large herd can be MIXED in
the time 1t usually takes to milk a
single cow, to which may be added the
advantage Of cleanliness and the desir-
ability of a method which shall operate
exactly alike at each milking. The ami
mails soon become used to the machine,
and stand as readily as when MIXED
by the old way.

The Influence Of Food.

or fowl, or we may as properly say tA
food and driGk, for both are absorb!
by the digestive organs and passed lna|
the system. In our search for u
cheapest food, or that which will pn'
duce the most, we are apt sometime
to forget that the quality needs to Z
considered for home use and for mca
ket. Good corn and its products giysI
a better flavor to all the above thu
any other food we know, and it gives i
these products as much nutritive Qua&
ties as any other food that is not III
jectiOnable in flavor or in some 0th3$
way. 1t Is not perfect food, 0,
complete food in all ways, but need
other foods with it, and one Of the a1
Of the skillful feeder is to see how y
can best combine those foods so as Z
feed as much corn as may be pro6taN
without injuring the health Of the Al
NAL. We all know how much ber4
is the flesh of the steer or hog fatteaf1
on corn than on other feeds, and pod
try, eggs and milk are also much ID
ter when corn is large part of the
than when cheaper grains are U.s.
