HANDY WOOL TYING BOX.
Way in Which the Wool Grower May
Enhance the Value of His
Product.

The selling side of farming is. in
many cases, as important as the pro,
ducing side. After incurring the ex-
pense of time and labor in the produc.
tion of an article it is very poor policy
to give SO little attention to the mar
keting of it that it's full value will
not be realized. One important factor
in securing the full value of an arti-
Gle is it's appearance. There are few
II any articles of exchange in which
the appearance will not materially af-
feet the price that may be obtained
therefor.
While 1t is not proper to try to in
fluence the appearance by such decep-
tive methods as putting the larger ap-
pies on the top of the barrel, the
larger and ripper berries on the top Of
the box. or the larger potatoes on the
top of the load, work spent on the i'm
provement of the appearance of the

HOMEMADE HAMS.
How the Pork May Be Cured and
Smoked on the Farm-A Good
Sausage Recipe.

Use hams from nicely fatted spring
pigs that dress about 100 pounds, or fall
shotes weighing say 225 pounds. After
cutting let them lie till next day and
then use strictly clean cask to put
them in. Pour water enough on to cover
we'll, then draw of, the water and add
good molasses till it is pleasant to
drink. Dissolve in little hot water /
ounce salpeter for every 20 pounds meat
and add to it. Then carefully add fine
salt and stir it till dissolved, and when
a potato about as large as an egg. will
nicely float in it pour it on the meat.
Keep in cool place for to IL weeks.
Remove from the pickle and lay the
rind side down for four days to dry, says
Farm and Home. Hang in an open
smokehouse and make smoke of hick-
week, and after that once day for 10
days. March is the best month to cure
hams with smoke. If the smokehouse
has some open cracks and the wind can
draw through and dry them out your
hams will keep in cool, dark, dry place
for one year or longer if desired. Ihave
made them 80 years in this way with the
best results.
I'm making sausage use nicely fatted
pork, one-third fat and two-thirds lean
meat. Cut in small bits, lay on a table
and weigh when all cut. For every 10
pounds meat add one-Quarter pound
fine salt and l ounce of black pepper
(strictly pure; better buy and grind it
yourself). Then sprinkle on your meat
and thoroughly mix it, then grind and
mix again. Pack in tin pans and put
one-quarter in lard over the meat. II
preferred it may be put in cases or mar
row muslin bags and smoked little,
when it will keep a long time. l have
kept it packed in pans and stored in
box in our kitchen till April / in fine
condition. Hard freezing does no harm
and the longer kept so the better.

INJUNCTION REFUSED.
The Philadelphia Painters Win Over
Master Painters in Court.


The Philadelphia Painters Win Over
Master Painters in Court.
The Master Painters association
Of Philadelphia sought to secure an
Injunction against the local union in
the strike now in progress in that
city The master painters sought to
show that the union men were in
timidating the non-unionists, but the
bosses were unable to establish any
act of intimidation or Interference
on the part of the men.
The judge from the bench declared
that the men had done nothing ex-
cept what they had the right to do
He stated explicitly that the ask
ing of non-union man to join the
union was entirely proper, and that
in doing so men were entirely within
their rights.
He further announced that the
court would not interfere unless some
unlawful act were shown, and in this
case none had been shown.
The attorney for the master paint
ers made one truthful statement: He
said that the business of the plaintiffs
was absolutely paralyzed; that they
could not get men to complete their
work. "And that's no lie!"
After the decision had been rend-
cred the bosses exhibited most cor
dial feeling toward representatives of
the union, Peck, McShane, Kelly and
Lynch being surrounded by groups of
bosses talking good-naturedly about
the case and its outcome.
"This watch will work like a

JUNIOR AUXILIARY.
Capitalism the Study for the Meeting
Next Sunday Afternoon.


The Junior Auxiliary will meet at
1904 o street Sunday afternoon at
2:30. Capitalism" is the topic for
the day. All are cordially invited to
attend. The lesson follows:
1. Capitalism is a system of wealth
production, and principally disting-
uishes itself from previous systems:
First in that itself-that is the wealth
employed in the further production
of wealth-is entitled to part of
the further produced wealth.. second
that the labor employed in the further
production of wealth becomes a direct
commodity is, it is paid for ac-
cording to amounts embodied in the
wealth produced. In other words it
becomes wage-labor.
g. All wealth is the embodiment of
labor or energy in certain raw mate
rails, reshaping those raw materials
and giving them certain use values.
There is no value-that is, no abso-
lutte value-in raw materials except
what labor bestows upon it. In other
words all value is based upon the
labor cost of reproducing any given
commodity.
8. A commodity is the unit Of
wealth under the capitalistic system.
Any article which is placed upon the
market or might or may be placed
there, is commodity. Anything that
has a transferable quality even
though it may for various reasons be
temporarily withheld from the mar
ket.
4. All commodities under ordinary
circumstances sell for more than the

IN SPLENDID SHAPE.
Organizer French of the Cigarmakers
Brings Good News.


George R. French, of Louisville,
Ky, general organizer of the Cigar
makers International Union of Amer
lea, has been in Lincoln several days
strengthening the local organization
and doing lot of quiet but effective
missionary work for the 'blue label"
Mr.. French has spent considerable
time at the Lewis and Clark expo
sition in Portland, where he installed
live exhibit for his organization.
I'VE are growing stronger every
day. said Mr.. French to The Wage
worker I'VE find the people more
and more responsive to our appeals
for support because the people are
learning that our aim is to benefit
the men and women engaged in our
line of work They realize more and
more, too, that our interests are their
interests. We have no troubles of
any great moment just at present"
The cigarmakers are figuring on es-
UJDllSulIlS d uOlllS III IuUOIC pa
tients somewhere in the great south
west. Consumption is the great bane
of the tobacco working crafts, and
true to their we'll known principles
OF fraternity the cigarmakers are go
ing to spend lot of money caring
for their unfortunate brothers. In the
last twenty years the cigarmakers'
union has expended more than $780,
600 in sick and death benefits. And
to the everlasting credit of the men
in charge be it said that up to date
not single dollar is known to have
been stolen by dishonest officials.
Local cigarmakers are constantly
OH the alert to push their label, and
the advertising campaign is waged
day and night. Business is fair.

SQUARED UP.
Two Coal Firms That Are Square
With Organized Labor.

There are two coal firms in Lin
coin that are square, with organized
labor, having signed up with the
Transfers Union. The Marsh-Burke
Co., and the Adam Schaup Co. have
signed an agreement with the team
sters and will hereafter employ only
union drivers and pay the union scale.
This should be good news to the
unionists of the city, as they may now
have the privilege and the pleasure of
buying coal from union firms.
The Wageworker urges it's readers
to bear the names of these two firms
in mind, and when ordering coal see
to it that you stand by the men who
are standing by you Buy your coal
Of these two firms, and urge your
friends to do the same.

duct becomes the commodity Of the
directing and commanding capitalist
or capitalists.
Z. The surplus value-that is what
ever the commodity sells for above
the cost of reproducing it's the
share capitalism receives as it's share
for directing hnd commanding.
8. The price paid to labor for it's
share in producing commodities is
called "wage'-which word is derived
from the German and means scale"
t'Sca1e' is also derived from the Ger
man and means Shell" "Shel"
again is equivalent to measure. In
the last analysis then wage" means
measure" and would therefore mean
it's part as it's share in the commo-
dity.
9. By reason of this division of
function and the consequent division
measures or shares in the commodi-
ties produced there arises constant
struggle between the two elements
Capitalism and Labor operative in
the production of commodities.
10. This struggle is commonly
known as the class struggle, and the
result of this struggle is the forma-
ton of combination of capitalism, on
the one hand in to trusts. alliances,
etc., and on the other hand of labor
into unions, declarations, etc.
l. Through the invention Of machin-
cry and the discovery of forces pre-
viously unknown the ability to pro-
duce is vastly increased and the sur
plus value-that is the share of CAPT.
talism-is enormously advanced and
the share of labor though nominally
increased is comparatively decreased
~. Furthermore the accuracy and
skill is planted in these inventions
and discoveries and men, and women
and even more SO children, become
efficient workers in very short time,
and with very little practice.
49, These inventions and discovery
though an unreasonable blessing to
society at large and to capitalism in
particular, are instruments in the
hands of capitalism to reduce labor to
an everlasting dependence.
