statement regarding the Femere &
Motx case appearing in tonight's
issue of the Argus and a few other
matters that have not been made clear
TO the public whom We wish to know
the facts. At a meeting of the boss
BARRIERS held on the evening of the
31st, it was decided that we would
stand by one another in protecting our
patrons. and at the same time not allow
our jOurneymen to dictate how our bus
mess should be carried on. We were
never informed by a committee of the
change of opening our shops, or not
even consulted in the matter Mr.
Vemere above all was loud in his SEN
timent in standing together, and as a
former financial secretary of local 113
he claimed the union had not the right
to take our cards and was the one to
suggest a plan to resist the demand if
one was made. II seems as though he
was trying TO injuTe our business, at
the same time he was getting the bene-
fit, as he is still holding his union card
and in fact has not even had an in
terview with any of us since the pres
ent strike.
Miller Not InstigatOr.
We further wish to deny the state
ment regarding /. G. Miller, secretary
of local No. 113 as to his being accused
as instigatOr of the present strike. We
find he was acting only under instruc-
tions from the union and as secretary
was forced TO sign his name TO the
articles first appearing in the Argus
and Union regarding the change. He
and other jOurneymen have been heard
TO say they did not care 10 strike, but
were in the minority and were COM
PEELED TO. We wish TO state that we
have no wish to antagonize union
labor; we have been forced to adopt
this course or else not have any say
in the conduct of our business.

BUSINESS IN FARMING,

Professor Jenkins OF the Connecticut
Experiment station recently, in COM
menting on farming as business,
made the following appropriate state-
ments
There is no industry practised today
where the principles OF business come
into greater practise daily than that of
farming. The farmer TO be successful
and meet competition In the markets,
must necessarily watch the corners just
as closely as the merchant or trades
man does I'm any line OF business IN the
city. In fact, he Is his own business
manager, and upon the adroitness with
which he manages HIS business depends
his success in making the farm produce
a profit at the end OF the year Go to
our best agricultural communities
where farmers are making the greatest
success OF their work, and you VIII
find that plans are carefully laid and
results that are favorable are obtained
only by carrying out those plans and
putting into practise the underlying
principles OF business The day Is past
when anyone can be farmer and make
a success of 1t In the true sense Of the
word. Business methods on the farm
have come about as result OF educa-
ton. We find the educated business
farmer today just as well trained as the
educated merchant or the banker.
Farming is Just as real business as
making cotton cloth or selling steel. The
underlying principles are alike, the
causes OF success or failure are the
same, whether we produce and sell
peaches or armor plate The same
things which take most attention In any
factory business are exactly the things
needed for successful farming. These

wants and when II wants III running
machinery or ether productive force at
it's fullest capacity, whenever 1t can be
done Mt any profit; fixing exactly the
cost Of production; buying stock at the
lowest rates, by paying cash when pos
slbe; by taking advantage OF any COM
petition and by buying in as large
quantity as Is practicable; use OF all
waste or by-products, and selling prod
ucts when there Is most demand and
least supply
These are Just the things which the
business farmer. as distinguished from
the mere tiller Of the soil has to study
and has to determine IN order 10 make
a success. The'man who masters these
things IL, | believe, as likely to sue
coed in farming today as In any other
business; the one who will not or cam
not master them Is bound, sooner or
later. 10 fail. Long ago we were work.
ing unexhausted soils, we had constant
ly widening market and little or no
competition.
The art OF agriculture was, pure and
simple the art Of growing crops-of sow
ing and reaping. Now u Is the art of
meeting competition In our home mar
kets from lands scarcely known to our
forefathers. the art OF lessening the cost
Of production, or finding out just what
the cost Of production Is and the study
Of market conditions 10 decide what we
can and cannot probably raise.

Where Mistakes Are Made.

II seems strange that with all the
years or practical experience which the
mining regions of the west afford, that
the most glazing mistakes are still be.
Ing made, almost daily, In the choice Of
the type Of mill selected to do certain
tain work. IN the situation of the mill
after such choice has been made In the
construction details after the site has
been chosen, and IN the arrangement
OF the transportation problem between
mine and mill, says the Mining and
Scientific Press. The reason for these
mistakes viii probably be found In the
fact that the arrangement Of these mat
ters has been placed In the hands of in
competent persons, In considering
transportation, men Of this class put IN
what they know will work" usually IA
