or enthusiasm for the movement among
the various workmen OF the city that
when the plans are finally announced
there will be such following back OF the
movement that there will be nothing else
ahead but success
The labor people OF this city have been
anxious to have some such pian nut he
fore them for some time and feel that the
time is ripe for action. Several OF tho
leaders have gotten together and talked
the situation over. and have a plan which
they think Will work with all graft elm
mated. The labor people are so anxious
for the success OF the plan that they are
willing 10 make racrihces I'm order u

weeks the announcement viii be made
bidding the officials and members OF the
various unions, as individuals TO con-
ference when the plans Will take definite
ress and the party started.
The coal teamstcr have already started

their meetings 10 talking over the plln
and the typogra phical union Is about q
do the same thing The other unions are
falling into line and are planning 10 held

PoTTEp MEAT NOT PRESERVED.
Manufacturers' Association and SAN
tfarx Inspector So Report,

MA ASSOCIATION anu sum
itary Inspector So Report.
The following extracts from reports
Of the National Manufacturers Asso-
citation and Inspector Hedrick, Sanitary
Inspector of the City of Chicago, refute
the sensational charges made against
the canned meat packers:
Our investigation of the Canned and
Potted Meat part of the packing industry
showed that the methods used make the
use of p~reservatives unnecessary, and in
Dictated that no preservatiyes or artificial
c~oloring is now used by the Canned Meat
packer.
The meat is first partially cooked in
large kettles, then the fat and bone is
trimmed off and the meat packed into
tins. The air is then withdrawn with
vacuum pumps and the cans sealed in
vacuum Next they are put into large
cookers, where the cooking process is fin
ished. In the packing of some products
it is necessary that the cans be reopened
and the steam allowed to escape, the vent
hole being Immediately resealed while the
goods are hot, so as to retain the Vacuum.
The entire process is quite similar to
that used by the family cook when putting
up fruits and vegetables, except that
meats are sealed in tin cans instead of
being put in glass jars. We found that
the solder in making the cans and in
sealing them is all placed on the outside
of the can and does not come in contact
with the contents.
We were informed that much Of the
cause for complaint in canned meats was
because of the mistaken idea that the
goods would keep in perfect condition af-
ter they had been opened. This would
be the fact IL they were preserved with
chemicals, but as they are only kept in
condition because of being sealed in vac
uum tins they spoil just as readily as
fresh meats do after they have been
opened and exposed to the air, but will
keep indefinitely IL the can is not pune
tured. 1t Is also a %well-known scien-
tifc fact that decayinx meat generates
q gas which will explode any package
which is Theoretically sealed.
Sanitary Inspector Hedrick submitted
to Commissioner Whalen his analysis of
conditions in the Libby, Mcneil & Libby
plant. He found with reference to gem
eral conditions, that the floors, halls,
stairs, tables, ETC., are kept Clean" and
shat the entire department-viewed from
our standpoint-was in a satisfactory con-
dition. All workrooms are light, and have
good ventilation"

DOUGLAS NEW BUILDING.
Big Shoe Company Increases It's
ID Facilities.


The dedication Of the new admins.
tration and jobbing house building
erected by the w. l.. Douglas Shoe Co.
as a part of its mammoth m%anufactur.
ing plant at Montello, Mass, was
marked by the thoroughness and atten-
ton to detail characteristic of the firm
in all its undertakings. AS the new
building Is said to be the most complete
and convenient Of any ever built for q
commercial house In the United States,
SO were the expressions of appreciation
by the many persons who visited 1t for
inspection sincere and Of a highly con
gratulatory nature.
The completion of this structure
marks the establishment OF a modern
up-to-date wholesale jobbing house and
office building. Mr.. Douglas has long
considered the ACCESSIBILITY Of a job
bling house, not only for the purpose
Of supplying his own retail stores more
readily, but that the 1900 dealers
throughout the United States handling
the w. l.. Douglas shoes might be able
to obtain shoes for immediate use with
greater facility. Under the present sys-
ten all shoes are manufactured to or
der, and customers sometimes lose sales
waiting for shoes to arrive. With the
new jobbing house they will be enabled
to have their hurry orders shipped the
same day they are received, which VIII
be far more satisfactory to the Gus
toner and will result in a largely In
creased business to the w. l.. Douglas
Shoe Co.
The new building Is 2G0 feet long and
GO feet wide and two stories in height.
The jobbing department will occupy the
entire lower floor, while the offices will
occupy the second floor. The jobbing
department will carry q complete stock
of mems, boys, youths, women's,
misses and children's shoes, slippers,
rubbers and findings equal to any job
bling house in the country.

LOOK AFTER THE STRAWBERRY
PLANTS.

If one is running the strawberry planta-
ton on the plan of getting one crop and
then turning the plants under, this article
will be of no use to them. 1t is an exper-
fenced grower, however, who can feel it
profitable to turn under a lot of thriving
plants after fruiting them one year for
most beds are well worth fruiting the Sec
ond and sometimes the third year. An ex-
cellent way of treating the beds which
lave fruited once is to go through them,
just after the fruit is gone and with a
small plow open a shallow furrow as close
to the plants as can be done without dis
turbing them: this is done on both sides Of
the row, then the fertilizer is put In the
furrow and the soil turned back by plow-
ing in the middle of the row then the
whole space Is leveled down by the use of
the cultivator. 1t Is better to give the
plants a good portion Of the fertilizer they
are to receive at this time of the year
than 1t is to apply II all in the spring. OF
course a part of the work is to keep all
the runners cut off which are not needed
to add more plant to the row. This early
summer care will add materially to the
value Of the crop another year.

Cakes Are All Right.
From Success Magazine.

@ASAA
d you know why griddle cakes
hurt you?" demanded the high apostle
Of Fetching. Because the SYRUP is
allowed to pass into the stomach with
out being properly mixed with the sa-
Iva, which makes it digestible.
LAS soon as ii enters the stomach 1t
becomes acid and interferes with ev-
erything it meets. Had the cakes been
properly masticated and mixed with
the saliva, the cane sugar would have
become grape sugar, and in this form
it is easily digested.
why is it that stout people are ad-
vised to avoid starChy foods? Pota-
toes, eaten too hastily, when not craved
by the appetite, supply the system with
a superabundance Of fat inducing
starch.
Potatoes are supposed to produce
fat; but If you appetite Graves po-
tato, and you properly masticate 1t,
eating only as much of it as satisfies
your appetite, the system absorbs it
all, leaving nothing to produce fat"

STRENGTHENS
THE ENTIRE SYSTEM

Mr.. Chas. L. Sauer, Grand Scribe,
Grand Encampment l. O. o. +. of Texas,
and Assistant City Auditor, writes from
the City Hall, San Antonio, Texas:
Nearly two years ago l accepted a
position as secretary and treasurer with
one of the leading dry goods establish
ments of Galveston, Texas.
The sudden change from a high and
dry altitude to sea level proved too much
for me and l became afflicted with CA.
tarrh and cold in the head, and general
debility to such an extent as to almost
incapacitate me for attending to my du'
ties.

after taking several bottles in small
doses I am pleased to say that 1 was
entirely restored to my normal con-
difiOn and have ever since recon-
mended the use of Peruna to my
friends"

MAKING COUNTRY ROAD Gull
vERTS.

Many a country road is all that 1t might
be expected to be except in the respect to
Its culverts which are often dangerous to
vehicles passing over them. 1t costs more
in time than in money to build a good cul-
vert but 1t Is work which should be well
done. The approaches to the culvert
should be well graveled and SO graded that
they will eros the culvert at a level. OF
course the culvert should have heavy
stones as a foundation and, II in a Sec
ton where stones are plentiful, a number
of stones or stone slabs may be found
long enough to span a narrow culvert but
If these are not available heavy planks
will answer the purpose and should be
built in this way. The planks extending In
the same direction as the road should be

SPRAYING POTATOES FOR
BLIGHT,

Too few farmers spray their potatoes for
blight, although 1t Is customary to do more
or less spraying for rot and 10 destroy the
bugs. 1t pays to spray for blight as those
who do it can testify. To do the work eff
fectively it should be begun in early July
and be con at intervals Of from a
week to twelve days throughout the grow
ing season. OF course the weather has
much to do with the frequency of spray
ing, rainy weather making IL necessary to
do the work more frequently. The best
formula is the bordeaux mixture, six
pounds of blue stone, six pounds of lime
and fifty gallons of water. If bugs are
plentiful add one pound of paris green to
each fifty gallons of the mixture. 1t is, Of
course, understood that the work Is done
with the sprayers Of modern construction
and that it is done thoroughly for unless
thoroughly done 1t will be Of little avail.
In no section where potatoes are grown
can we afford to do spraying for all Of
the troubles which affect the crop; If this
work is lone potato growing is as profit
able as ii ever was, more so in some sec
tons where faint-hearted growers have

FATTENINe HOGS QUICKLY.

One may not be able to raise swine in the
numbers that they are handled in certain
sections of the county, but there is no rea-
son why they cannot be fed after the same
general plan whether one has few or
many. In the first place the hog, to fatten
readily and profltably, should have been
we'll brought up; that is, 1t should have
had plenty to eat and that in such variety
as to nave gwen the animal a proper dis
tribution Of fat and muscle so that 1t will
be in a position to take on fat without US
ing any Of the food for its growth. In the
sections where swine are raised in large
numbers corn with the cob is ground into
a coarse meal which is placed in barrels
until the barrel is half full; milk, clean
slop and water is heated until boiling then
poured into the barrel until ~three-quarters
full. After three or four days this mass
will ferment until the barrel is full to the
brim 1t is then fed to the hogs a little at
q time until they get used to it then they
are given all they will eat three times
daily. For roughage clover hay is fed and
the hogs kept on the range as long as pos
sible. This combination puts flesh on a
hog rapidly and without cloying its appe-
title which is the case when corn is fed in
any other way. Try the plan on a small
scale If necessary to ascertain how it will

long enough so that they will extend for at
least a foot at each end on the stone
support. Then these planks should be
crossed with shorter planks nailed close
together up to the point where the long
planks rest on the stone supports. Much
added strength Is obtained in this way and
at g minimum of cost The whole struc-
ture ought to be arranged so that there Is
at least eight inches Of good gravel over

finch and one-half thick and there are two
of them set two inches apart. Holes are
bored at intervals for the lever and this is
made of hard wood four feet long and
notched at intervals while a strong wire is
used to hold the lever in position. 1t is
fashioned much Ike the store jacks but,
built on the farm. costs much less. In the

showing how the bolt is inserted and the
mortise in the base is also indicated. With
the description and the drawing no one
ought to have any trouble in making this

NOT TOO LATE FOR FLOWERS.

Do not be deceived If any one should tell
you that it is too late to SOW flower seeds;
Of course there are some kinds which will
not mature and come into flower, but even
so the foliage is well worth seeing and II
other classes are mixed in the plants
without blossoms will but add to the
beauty of the beds. Dwarf nasturtium
seed planted now will give one a lot or
plants which will bloom p~rofusely In the
ate summer and early fall, at a time when
the bloom will be most appreciated. Sweet
Alyssum. saliva splendins, zinnias n
m~arigolds can all be sown now except in
the far north and win bloom more or less
before frost. Among bulbs try a few
gladiolus bulbs getting the large bulbs and
setting them rather deep in moderately
rich sandy soil. The fall bloom OF some
of these sorts is well worth having n
certainly we'll worth the comparatively
slight effort required to obtain It. If one
can afford q few dollars for plants moth
Ing will give greater satisfaction In the
border than some OF the varieties OF single
geraniums; select the deep red and bright
pink sorts as being most satisfactory in
the matter of bloom and In the strength of
plant.

Save the Babies.

INFANT MORTALITY is something highfu. We can hardly realize that Of
all the children born in civilized countries twenty-five per cent, or nearly
one-quarter, die before they reach one year; thiryseven per cent, or moro
than onethird, before they are five, and one-haf before they are fifteen!
We do not hesitate to say that a timely use Of Castora would save ma
jcmy Of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many Of these
and soothing syrups sold for childrens complaints contain more or less opium, or
morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity
operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature Of
Chas. q. Fletcher. Castoda causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the
pores of the skin and anays fever.
