FAN River, Mass. May ga movement in
favor OF a general reduction Of 10 per cent in
the wages OF the cotton textile operatives or this
city was formally set on foot at a meeting OF
the Fall River Manufacturers Association to-
day. The executive committee was instructed 10
secure signatures binding the thirty-hve cor
porations represented in the association TO abide
by a cut-down in the schedule.
Although strong sentiment was expressed IN
favor OF the proposed reduction. several inIluen-
tiaI treasurers argued against any change at this
time in view OF the fact that the mills mad
been running only four days a week for nearly
two months If assurances could be given Of
steady work they added cut might be advis-
able put as the depression in the trade continued
there was no certainty that steady employment
could be furnished The majority OF the manu-
facturers favor an immediate cut-doWn, as they
contend they are being uncersold In the open
markets.
The operatives, OF whom at least twenty Ave
thousand would be affected by a change in the
nav srhedlrie are uneasy and there IS much
strike talk in the air, but should a cut be made

II is estimated that this years
broom corn acreage in Oklahoma viii
double that Of any previous year in
the Territory's history This fact, too.
must be taken into consideration by
those parties VINO are seeking to
merge the broom-corn interests Of the
country. Last fan there we're many
buyers from Chicago and other Illinois
poinns in Oklahoma and every big con-
Germ in the East maintains an Okla
homa headquarters.
Last fall throughout Northwestern
Oklahoma, especially in Beaver coun-
ty there was big acreage, and the
high prices that prevailed made the
growers neat profit and encouraged
the planting OF a more extensive acre
age this year. All farmers in the
southwestern part found that broom
corn withstood the dry weather well
and we're amply repaid for their trOu-
BILE.
Whenever given proper care and at
tention broom corn has done well in
Oklahoma, and many farmers have re
realized large profits The satisfactory
results Of last season are making
many with no experience think of
growing It this year; there are many
farmers coming into Oklahoma from
Illinois, who have grown broom corn
there and who are the leaders in the
culture The yield per acre in Okla
homa Territory has been from one
fourth to one-half ton of the cured
product In 1900 only the states OF
Illinois. Kansas and Missouri outrank-
ed Oklahoma in the total output Of
broom corn, and the acreage is
doubling every year.
