In this view Of the subject one
may hesitate to condemn the vio-
lence of Labor strikes and ask If,
after all, it is not better for mankind
to endure the fury Of the process by
which Labor is translated into Cap
ital than face the sure prospect OF
sinking back into a state of serfdom?
The Peasant Revolt, led by Mat
Tyler, Jack Straw and John Ball,
was but the prototype of the Labor
strike led by Gompers, Mitchell
and Boyce. Both sides are pursu-
ing the same tactics now they did
then. Capital then appealed to the
courts and manipulated legislatures.
Labor, conscious Of its strength,
resorted to force, which was its only
weapon against superior cunning

Linseed Menl for PnnItrx

Linseed meal is an excellent addition
10 the general variety of foods for poul-
try, as it is highly nitrogenous, and it is
much superior to cotton-seed meal. as
the seeds from which it is made are fully
matured, which is not the case with the
ground cotton seed. Linseed meal may
be fed at all seasons. Even when grain
is allowed it will pay to feed linseed
meal. and when given linseed meal the
hens will lay more eggs. 1t is richer in
the essential elements of growth and
production than many other cOncentrat-
ed foods. and greatly enriches the
