his children have needed but failed
to get
AS first stated, the real problem to
be solved in the labor question is
how to best preserve to the laboring
man a just proportion the wealth
which he produces. If all men were
on an equal footing this question
would be easily solved, but the peo-
pie who have special privileges are
fighting to retain them, and a spe-
cial privilege for one man means
special burden for another.
They who expect to discover some
| golden key to the problem or some
| potent cureall will be disappointed
for the problem can only be worked
out by diligence, patience and per-
severance, and it will never be entire
! ly settled, for so long as the world
| endures men will be selfish and the
strong will Cypress the weak. The
best that we can expect or hope for
is that our government will see to it
that every man shall have an equal
opportunity, and that the man who
shall be so fortunate as to accumu-
late wealth shall not be permitted to
use that wealth for the purpose of
imposing harsh conditions upon his
neighbour.
The condition of labor is, however,
slowly but surely improving. It is
infinitely better than it was one hun
dred years ago. 1t is better than it
was fifty, twenty, or even ten years
ago, and the advance made by labor
is due almost. entirely to organtza-
ton. The growth of unionism has
been phenomenal in Montana and
throughout the United States, and
this, l believe, is due to the better
methods adopted by the unions. We
have come to recognize the fact that
if we would succeed we must adopt
the same business methods that are
used by other successful organiza-
tions, the basis of which is justice for
all men and malice toward none.
We have come to see that the great
est achievements are won by indi-
rection. If you go at man rough
shod you arouse his hostility and
: nine times out of ten you will have
to fight for any concessions you may
get from him; but when you say to
man, let us consider this matter
fairly and in a friendly manner, each
recognizing the rights of the other,
and nine times out of ten you will
get friendly answer. And SO it is
with the employer; if you approach
him showing your teeth you are
bound to have fight but when you
approach him in all fairness, you are
very apt to be met in the same spirit.
By this I do not mean that the union
must be afraid to fight when it is
necessary, for sometimes it is a ne
c"ssity, and when it is, put out the
best you have in the shop.
Labor unions have existed since
, before the Christian era, and it would
seem that the relations existing be-
tween capital and labor should have
, been thoroughly settled before now,
and so it would have been were 1t
, not for the constant changes that
, are taking place-changes which
create new occupations and do away
: with old ones. At one time in the
history of the world it required Il
hours of constant toll per day to
+ furnish each person with the bare
necessities of life. Through the in

Our Interest in Good Seed.

The successful farmer of TO-
day is on the alert for improved
methods and machinery, better
varieties, and the prevention of
unnecessary waste.
While many of the dangers to
crops can not be avoided, it
may be possible by care and
foresight to keep clear of some
which are commonly unnoticed.
One of the comfortable factors,
and the one which is perhaps
most often neglected. is the seed.
For the last three or four
years there has been a constant.
ly increasing outcry against the
seeds sold by unscrupulous deal
ers, and some demand for legis-
lation. A few States have pass
ed, or have attempted to pass,
laws regulating the trade in
seeds. This serves to show
that in some places the farmers
are alive to the injury done by
the sale of foul or poor seeds
and are searching for remedy.
AS yet, however, there is no
indication that the mass OF
farmers realize the extent of the
evil or see clearly how the sale
of poor seed effects them
persoally- That there are many

ent states and different parts of
Texas and nearly all Of them knew
something about Canyon City.
Many OF them had seen our reunion
advertising, some were here and
Others coming next year. We car
ried with us n lot of photographs of
the fine cattle that We're exhibited
here during the fine stock show
which were very much admired; but
there Is room for much more educa-
tional work on these lines. Many
men who would make good citizens
and desirable neighbors have sold
out their black and sandy land farms
and have their eyes turned this way
In the hope Of securing cheaper lands
and good homes out of the negro
and malarial belt. If our people will
only put forth a more concerted ef-
fort, we can secure a large citizenship
that will help to make this the gar
den spot of Texas.

frauds in the seed trade no good
scotsman will deny, but much
of the complaint about poor
seed is due to the fact that the
dealers themselves are ignorant
of the quality of the seeds they
sell. The solution of the diff
entity lies with the consumers;
if they will demand a statement
of quality, and purchase from
firms willing and able to give a
relible statement, and If they will
pay what good seed is worth,
they will get good seed; if they
continue to buy haphazard, they
must take their chances.
While it is difficult to estimate
the money loss chargeable to
poor seed on account of extra
labor, loss of the use of land,
and the intr oduction of weed
seeds, it is easy to determine
the exact loss due to the quality
OF the seed itself, reckoned on
the increased prices for the
seeds that actually come up and
grow.
A sample of seed may contain:
1 Pure and germinable seed that
is, that will grow and produce
the kind of plants wanted.
9. Chaff, sticks, and dirt.
8. Dead seed of the kind pur-
chased.
4. Weed seeds, and field seeds
other than those wanted.
Of these the pure and good
seed only is of any value, the
remainder being either useless
or positively harmful. The
value of the sample to the farm
er will depend, then, upon the
amount of pure and germinable
seed present. 1t is for this that
the farmer pays, and whether
the seed is cheap or expensive
depends not solely upon wheth-
er it is low or high priced, but
upon how much he pays per
pound of good seed. The term
"Actual or net value" is used
in seed.testing establishments to
indicate the proportion of seed
that is both pure and germinable.
For example, if a sample of
clover has 9S per cent of pure
seed and 80 per cent of this will
germinate, then the proportion
of good clover seed in the entire
sample is 90 per cent of SO per
cent. or S0.2 per cent. This
represents the net value of S8.2.
The standard weight OF bushel
of red clover is 60 pounds, and
a sample having a net value
of 8S.2 will contain 81. 9pounds.
of good seed. The net value of
the seed sold on the market
varies widely, and there is no
constant relation between cost
land value.-Farmers' Bulletin
