MAKING THE ARMY USEFUL
Agricultural Paper Suggests EN-
ployment of Idle Soldiers in Con-
struction of Highways.

Gen. Miles has been developing a
scheme whereby the army when not in
.ervice, which is most of the time, may
De relieved of the monotony of life with
nothing to do but eat and sleep, and at
he same time be of some practical use
o the country. He proposes that they
De supplied with modern road machinery
and set to improving the roads of the
country. There is much good hard sense
n this proposition. There has recently
oeen considerable effort made to restore
the soldier the privileges of the can
cen on the ground that in his enforced
dleness there were other and worse
evils, which were liable to take posses
sion of his time when the canteen was
'efused him. We believe the PROPOSE
ion to give him something to do will re-
deve the monotony of his position in
l way that will be far better for him and
.or the country in general, and certainly
more to the credit of the nation. So
ong as these regiments must be main
aimed at public expense, why not have
hem employ their time in a way that
would be for their good and of practical
Jalue to the general public While our
trmy is vastly smaller than that main
aimed by most other countries of SINH
ar proportions and the expense of main
aiming it is consequently less burden
some, yet if it can be employed at some
Useful occupation this burden will be
still farther reduced. Every little helps
n cutting down the expenses, and with
the large and increasing demands for
public improvements along various lines
all over the country, it is certainly adj
'isable to adopt economic changes
wherever practical.-Prairie Farmer.

USEFUL FARM STRUCTURE.
Barracks Are to Be Preferred to Stack

Cheaply Built.

l recently saw, in book for the
Information of farmers, plans and de-
7cription of barrack. Having built
them, and living in section where
tvery farm has them, was greatly i'm
pressed with what the writer did not
know about these useful farm struc-
lures.

true way to frame around the corner

sweep for raising and lowering. Four
straight chestnut poles % feet long

Save Your Horse Hides.

1t has occurred to us that farmers and
horse dealers are not generally aware
Of the fact that horse hides, whether
taken off from slaughtered horses or
those which have died by disease or per-
ished from other causes, have market
value. Farmers should not allow the
hides Of their fallen stock to go to waste.
Fair-siZed horse hides, free of cut holes
and other blemishes. are now bringing

Advance in Land Values.

The advance in land values has been
fery marked during the past six years.
Good agricultural lands are steadily in
sreaslng in price, and there is no pros
pect of a reduction or decline. Our
population increases steadily, while
there can never be any more acres of
land on the earth's surface than at
present. 1t annually requires more of
farm products to feed the increasing
population, and prices must therefore
rule higher and higher and farming
become more and more intensified and
remunerative.-Mid Farmer.

, Of the federation. The Gompers ele.
ment charge that the opposition is en-.
deavoring, virtually, to establish a
''trust" within the ranks of the labor
organization. His friends declare
moreover, that Gompers has shown
himself to be not open TO political in
fuences, and that Mitchell's friend
ship for President Roosevelt is to some
extent a motive power in the present
contest. This latter statement is Wig
orously denied by President Mitchell
and those who have aligned themselves
with him in the fight.
Aside from this contest for the pres.
idency important questions will be
considered and acted upon that will
make the convention one of vital i'm.
portance to organized labor the coun-
try over. The open shop and the anti
labor movement, a. personi6ed by So
called Citizens Alliances and party
organizations, will come in for great
share of the discussions. The anti
injunction law and the eighthour bill,
which went down to defeat at the last
session of congress, will again be taken
up and ways and means discussed for
bringing about their passage by the
national legislature.
