SHELVES FOR STORING FRUIT.
How to Construct Good Substitute foo
Barrels or Board
Shelves.

Chicken netting stretched as shelving
in rooms where fruit is stored will be
found a most advantageous substitute
for barrels of board shelves. The mesh
should be of such size as to prevent the
fruit from falling through, but no finer.
Apples placed on such support will
not touch each other nor be in contact
with anything to promote decay, says the
Rural New Yorker. They may be readily
inspected, and spotted or imperfect ones
removed. If preferred the netting may
be firmly tackled on frames and sup
ported on brackets attached to the cellar
walls. For the smaller fruits. cherries,
ETC., a finer mesh may be used and the
same frames serve for the drying and
storing of the fruit. Where this is done,
spread the cherries over the netting and
place a similar frame over the fruit. Sc
cure the two frames together by means
of hooks and staples. They may then
be turned over as often as desired, per-
mitting the cherries to dry uniformly
ON both sides. If the frames are made
with sides one inch deep below and
two or more deep above they may be 80
placed as to bring the netting close to-
gether for the drying process and sew
eral inches apart for storage purposes.
The advantage of the extra space in the
latter case is that mice cannot attack
the fruit from below, and will not be
able to reach it from above. The frames
can be readily removed and cleansed
from fruit that has dried or decayed on
them

DISPUTES OF LABOR.
Outcome of Increased Cost Of Llv.
Ing and No Increase Of
WAGES.

The Employers association, of Chi
cago, pretended to have gone TO a great
expense TO try and discover what the
increase of the cost of living has been
during the last five years. They en-
ployed corps of experts to unravel the
knotty question, who have reported that
the increase has been Is per cent. during
the time mentioned. Another corps of
experts employed by Cun's Mercantile
agency have for years been figuring
on the same proposition, and every
month publish the result of their inves-
tleat1ons. Over year ago Dun's an.
nounced that the cost of living had in
creased Al per cent. from the lowest
point in 1897, and as their figures are ac-
cepted. the world over, as reliable, the
absurdity OF the results of the Employ
ers' association experts is apparent
Dun's figures are based upon the average
prices at certain dates of $50 articles
OF consumption, with due allowance for
tne relative importance of each. Since
the highest point was reached in 1902,
there has since then been a decline of
nearly SIX per cent, and from August
l, 1902, to August l, 1903. there was a re-
duction of 90 per cent, which will prob
ably be again raised when the figures
are published for August of this year.
In consequence of the large advance in
the prices of cereals Anyway. the in
crease from 1897 to the present time has
oeen about IS per cent. Every pro-
WIDER for household has probably dis
covered that this raise in the cost Of
living has taken place. Ever since the
Dingley bill was passed in 1897, there
has been a steady increase of prices, un-
TIL the climax of 1902, when the beef
trust and the coal trust put the prices
of their products out of all reason.
AS most of the $50 articles of consump-
tfon are controlled by trusts and COM
bines. it is unlikely that the price of
their products will decline until the mo-
nopoly that the tariff protection gives
the trusts Is abolished or diminished.
There will be slight fluctuations as dur
Ing the past year, but no great decline
until panic causes a lack of consump-
tion of everything but the necessities or
the monopoly of the combines, through
the tariff, is taken from them.
The Employers association, of Chi
cago, has been fighting the demand of
the labor unions for higher wages. and
this one-sided attempt to prove that the
cost of living has only increased is per
cent. and that, therefore, wages should
be only increased in like ratio, will hard
ly settle the dispute. Wages must keep
pace with the cost of living, or the Ia
borers cannot partakc of the prosperity
that the trusts. combines and CORPORA
tions are boasting of. and to attempt to
prevent the adjustment by fictitious fig
ures Is only to incite strikes and lock-
outs.

Primary Elections Ordered.

urinary ItfecttOnS OfOcrc0.
The State Central Committee
of the Democratic party, which met
in New Orleans on the Sd instant,
has decided to order direct prima-
ries for all State officers and for
u. s. Senator. The time for hold
ing the election and the rules to
govern the same is yet to be deter
mined, these matters being referred
to a subcommittee which is to re-
port October 18th.
Those who expected to see the
Democratic party disrupted over
the question of nominations by con-
vention or primary election have
been disappointed by the harmoni-
GUS action of the committee. The
advocates of the convention plan,
finding they were outnumbered by
the primary men by about sixty to
fifty, gracefully gave up their con-
tention and made the action of the
committee unanimous.
A curious phase of affairs was
noted during the preliminary dis
cussion. A number of the commit
teemen avowed themselves as favor
ing conventions, but as their con-
stituents demanded primaries they
rightfulIy felt bound to carry out
their behest on the subject The
number entertaining these views
were apparently sufficient to have
carried the vote the other way had
they seen proper to enforce their
individual opinions.
The harmonious action of the
committee is most commendable,
and will 60 long ways toward ce-
menting the party upon its meas
ures and its candidates. In these
latter days of so-called s'independ-
ence" in political matters. it is we'll
for those who have hoped to see a
bolt from the party's constituted
authorities to understand that all
true Democrats are loyal to the
mandates of the party-that while
they have their differences and will
contend to the utmost for their
views, after the party has spoken
they stand united as one man.
