PLU MBERS' HEARING
REASONS FOR DELAY IN DIS
TRIcT BUILDING OPERATIONS.

The controversy between the local Mas
ter Plumbers Association and local No. 8
of the Journeymen Plumbers Union was
thrown into the limelight yesterday at
a hearing before the Board of District Com
mtssioners. For nine weeks, according TO
statements made at the hearing, the jour
neymen have been locked out by the en-
ployers' association. and the hearing, while
it was ostensibly for the purpose of an
investigation of the reasons for delay in
completion of the new Home for the Aged
at Blue Plains, D. c., really resulted in an
inquiry as to whether the lockout and al
legged scarcity of plumbers the job was
responsible for the delay.
Building Inspector Ashford stated that
the building, under the contract, was due
for delivery today, but even under the
most favorable conditions 1t could not be
completed until month after the plumb
ing work is finished, and he believed that
the plumbing contractor would not finish
inside of month.
At the opening of the hearing Robert
Caveriy, secretary of the Master Plumbers
Association, reviewed the local plum bling
situation and quoted an article printed In
The Star several days ago to the effect that
the journeymen plumbers union declared
that the delay at the almshouse was due
to the lockout and that the plumbers union
had been asked by a representative of the
Commissioners to state the condition on
which ''in the name of humanity they
would go to work and finish the job at the
Districts new institution. Mr. Caverly de-
clared that it was not question of men
at all; that the contractor, or the Master
Plumbers Association for him, could put
many as 100 hands at work the Home
for the Aged any day. He added that
change in the specifications for furnishing
certain fixtures at the home had been
agreed upon only a few weeks ago. and
that the work would go forward as soon
as shipments of the goods are received.

Cutting Silo Corn.

1t is Of primary Importance to know
at what stage corn should be cut to Sc
cure the best results. 1t is also neces-
sary, it is pointed out in Farming. that
a careful study be made as TO how rap
idly nutrment is stored up IN the cu7.n
plant and when the maximum amount
is reached. When corn is fully tassele
it contains but eighttenths of a ton of
dry matter an acre. or one-tifth Cf what
it contains when fully ripe. When in
milk it contains nearly three times as
much dry matter as when fully tas-
seled. Only seventeen days were oc
cupied in passing from the milk to
the glazing stage. yet in this time there
WAS an increase IN the dry matter of
is tons an acre. This shows the great
advantage of letting the corn stand
until the kernels are glazed. After this
period tho increase in dry matter is but
slight.

TIE ROUNDUP.
An Interesting Sight to an Outsider-TIe
Method Adopted

The conduct o. q big roundup by the
range riders is most interesting to the
outsider When 4 roundup is decided
on, the toTseuca usually organize into ii
legal body and elect 4 foreman for the
great drive. This foreman IS always an
old rider and horse owner who enjoys
the fui! confidence OF the range riders.
The first part of May is the time usu-
ally chosen for the roundup. From l5U
TO 100 riders are generally required I.

A roundup entails days of rough noun
tain riding and nights spent in the open
before the wild horses are driven into the
Dig corrais, from which there ia no means
Of escape. Many horses break through,

men OH fresh horses are sent back to at

drive. AT the entrances 10 the corraiS,
which are often a mile wide, riders on

The Farmers Wife

Is very careful about her churn. She
scalds it thoroughly after using, and gives
it a sun bath to sweeten it. She knows
that if her churn is sour it will faint the
butter that is made in it. The stomach is
a churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
ceSSeS which are almost exactly like the
churning of butter. Is it not apparent
then that if this stomach-churn is foul it
makes foul all which is put into it?
The evil of foul stomach is not alone
the bad taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the corruption of
the pure current of blood and the diSSem-
ination of disease throughout the body.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
1t does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the chuTn-absolutely
removes every tainting or corrupting ele-
mcnt. In this way it cures blotcheS,
pimples, eruptions. scrofulous swellings,
sores, or open eating ulcers and all
hunorS or diseases arising from bad blood.
If you have bitter, nasty, fonl taste in

ach, constipated or irregular bowels, sour

Harvesting Potatoes.

More or less Judgment IS required ia
doing any kind of work. and the dig
ging Of potatoes is no exception to the
rule. In the first place, so many should
not be dug out at one time that they
cannot be handled readily. \ coed way
is TO dig during the fore part OF each
half day and then gather the tubers
before quitting. As soon as dry they
should always be picked up. and if the
weather is reasonably dry the length of
time necessary for drying depends al
most entirely upon the nature of the
enough, but if a moist clay it may take
several hours. Potatoes, once dug.
should certainly not be left out on the
ground over night. If they are. the
frost has every chance to get at them
and only 4 little freezing is required to
spoil n good many bushels for mar
ker. II is poor practice. too, to pick
up potatoes without any regard TO grad
