OFFICIAL STATEMENT.
Glass Workers Have Few
Remarks TO Make.

Tell What is Being Done in Other
TOwns-Unionism not Foe to Pro-
gress Non-Union Towns Getting the
Worst of Conditions.
The following statement has been
made by the strike committee of the
local glass workers union The gen
tlemen composing the committee are
Fred Bishop, William Rosenmerkel,
Frank Feck, Ralph Fousse, George
Wright, Joe Martin, Walter Thorn
berg, Frank Thornberg and August
Listman:
In answer to the article in Friday
evenings paper headed Non union
Flag Raised, the glass workers wish
TO state that while we would be very
| thankful to receive the sympathy OF
OF the public in our struggle with
the Morgantown Glass Works, we
wish to say that we have not as yet
published any false statements, nor
do we propose to do so. But we
wish to call the attention OF the
public to the fact that the city of
Wheeling is progressing faster than
any city of its size in the state or
country. And we know of no bet
ter proof than the articles published
daily in the newspapers
We also wish to say that there
are twelve towns with factories max
ing speciality of the same line of
goods as made in Morgantown. Two
of those towns have non-union tacto-
ries. The other ten have union fac
tories. The ten towns are enjoying
the same prosperity as exists in
Wheeling. In one of the aon union
towns, namely, Tiffin, Ohio, real es
tate is way below par and six and
eight roomed houses rent as low as
five and six dollars a month and
there is practically no commercial
business done in the town whatever
While the other non-union town,
Mount Pleasant, Pa, which is a non
union town in its true colors, is filled
up with the scum of the south who
are employed by the non union coal
and coke works. These together
with the lowest element of thugs
and toughs who have been gathered
up from the largest cities of the
country compose the employees of the
glass works The former lot was
imported from the south to break
the big coal strike of 1896 and the
others were imported from the big
cities to break the strike in the
glass works year ago.
If the city of Morgantown wishes
to welcome that element, then we,
the union workers, have nothing
more to say To avoid any further
discussion of this point we wish to
say that while the conditions that
existed while the Seneca was non
union factory, were entirely salts
factory to both the public and the
company as soon as the employees
realized that they were standing in
their own light by not joining the
union, they joined it and we have
them all among us yet
Therefore we see no reason why
the public should not be satisfied
with union conditions as both the
employees and the Seneca Glass Com
pany are perfectly satisfied at the
present time.

Poultry Lice in Barns.

IL is unfortunate that farmers will
nor learn that the fowls have no place
in the barn with cattle: indeed that the
pOnltry-house ought not to he placed
near the barns ut all, for poultry lice
wiz get on to cattle, and espe ally en-
calves, and are hard to get rid Of. If
the poultry-hOuses are properly cared
for there ought not to be any lice in
them. Al this season of the year the
nest boxes, roOsts and the dropping
boards under the roosts should be well
cleaned at least once a week and the
nest boxes and the fowls he well dust
ed with insect powder 1t is especially
necessary that the hens which are to be
used as mothers be kept free from lice
or there will be great mortality among
the chicks when they are Matched. If
poultry lice are in barns it will require
considerable work to get rid of them
Whitewash and insect powder will
need to be freely used to accomplish it.

Some of the best corn crops of last
season. a season of poor crops in all
corn sections as a rule. were from soils
plowed in March or early April Ex-
perience has shown that this early
spring blowing is to be preferred to
fall blowing. for corn. The stable
manure is hauled to the field during the
winter as made, and in March, as soon
as the ground can be worked, it is
plOwed. the Flowing being rather shall
low. This blowing in done in the regu-
lar manner, but nothing more is done
until complaining time. when the
ground is further prepared for the crop.
The seeding is done with drills and
the summer system of cultivation start
ell with the weeder early and continued
as long as possible. The plan is com
paratively new in some localities. but it
has brought good results. and IS well
worth trying.

Heat in Bee Culture.

While tits possible to do many things
with artificial heat all attempts to
hasten activity on the part of the bees
BY artificial heat have proved failures
more, have been fatal to the colony
Prominence is given this now in view
of several items going the round OF the
press advising the packing of hives in
stable manure to furnish the artificial
heat In experiments brood rearing
was FASTENED. it is true. and more bees
Matched but thoy were weak, and sue
cumbed TO the weather when they left
the hives, and many of the honey gath
erers started out earlier owing to the
artificial heat, and never returned.
The hives should, of course, be packed
with some material so that the bees
win not suffer during the winter, but
all attempts to force them to gather
honey before settled weather will re-
suit in disaster.

BOUGHT AS SOUVENIRS.
Disposing of the Old Desks from tn
House of Representatives.

Disposing of the Old Desks from tn
House of Representatives.
\ scramble is being made by mem.
bers of Congress to possess the discard
ed desks which furnished the House
for so many years prior to the mahog
any elegance of the Fifty-seventh Con-
gress What are left of these desks are
stored In the basement under the ro-
tunda of the capitol and daily they are
hunted through by some Representa-
tive who rea. lies that here is an oppOr-
tunity to pelpetuate his glory as a ma
tiOnal legislator. and establish an heir
loom in his family to be used by his
childreu's children as an incentive to
oratory and craftsmanship.
At the Ia It session. when the House
decided to refurnish. a resolution was
purchase their old desks should be al
lowed to do so after prlca had been
established by an auction of few of
them. Chief Clerk William J. Brown
ing of the House was charged with car
rying out the resolution. and Mr..
Browning is finding his task one which
needs not only commercial instinct, but
the skill of a diplomat.
In order to ascertain the wish OF
members in this regard Mr.. Browning
sent notices to each of the members OF
the E'ifty-sixth Congress asking them
to communicate their desires to him in
writing on this matter. 4 few respond
ed but the indications we're. up to a
short time ago, that the desks were to
be drug on the market.
Just before the present Congress as
semblcd. about seveuty-fve of the
desks were sent to an auction room one
Saturday to be sold for the purpose OF
establishing price. Fifty Of these
desks now adorn a study-room in a
young ladies' seminary. while twenty
five were bought by souvenir hunters
1t is evident that the auctioneer missed
his cue in not impressipg the prospec-
| tive purchaser with the fact that many
great men had formulated the nations
policies behind these same desks. for
he only received prices ranging from
| S1.t0 to S1.75 for each desk Clerk
/ Browning holds that the average price
/ was $3.50, and what desks remain in
the rotuuda are being supplied to mem
! bers Mt that rate
! Many Of the members Of the last Con.
/ rress who failed of reelection to the
present have not been heard from on
/ the matter Of desks, and should there
he any left after those who are enti-
tied TO them are supplied. MIR Brown
| ing believes he viii have no trouble in
I disposing OF them to persons who
either want the desks for relics or whu
/ realize their prospective future value OF

Horse for the Fnrmer.

Speaking on the most useful horse
for the farmer before the West Yir-
ginia Live Stock Breeders Associa-
ton, G. Z, Lewis said in part: The
heavy horse has a signal advantage in
some farm operations. In blowing or
operating a manure spreader or haul
ing the crops to the barn or to market
the heavy horse is just what is want
ed, but in narrowing he does not have
an advantage proportionate TO his size.
For drawing moving machine the
lighter horse is better Hitch a heavy
horse to the shovel plow or cultivatOr
and start him Up and down the corn
field, with scarcely room between the
threefoot rows for him TO put his pom
derous feet, walking on two rows at
once and breaking down more corn in
each than a little horse could in one
and you win quickly decide that he
was not made for that kind of work.
Besides, to carry 1000 pounds of sur
plus, useless horsefesh over the soft
ground of the cornfield takes a great
deal of energy, and that energy has to
be supplied by an extra amount of
feed. Then through the long white;
months of idleness it requires great
deal of grain to keep the heavy horses
huge body in repair.
