To any farmer who will write US, men
tioning this paper, we will send free,
postpaid, several formulas for making
first-class fertilizer at home, together
with the cost of the ingredients, direc-
lions for mixing, etc.
The Vermont Experiment Station in
its bulletin No. 116 has the following to
say with reference to the value of home
mixed fertilizers as compared with the
ordinary commercial brands: "On every
account, however, financial, educational,
agricultural, it is better to buy the crude
stock and home mix if one uses a ton or
more"
Every up-to-date farmer should be in.
terested in the subject of home mixed
fertilizers and we are in position to
help them. Address,

IGNORE OYSTER DECISION.
Building Trades Mechanics to Act To-
morrow Evening"

uOAIoW GVcIl1uS.
1t is understood on good authority that
the Building Trades Mechanics Council will
decide at its meeting to be held tomorrow
evening to ignore the so-called Oyster de-
cision, which representative workingmen de-
clare virtually means the establishment of
the open shop in the District" A meeting
of the executive committee of the building
trades, composed of the business agents of
each of the seventeen structural crafts, was
held this forenoon at Costello's Hall, and it
is said the decision was reached to report
to the council tomorrow night in favor of
the non-acceptance of the decision that was
given by Capt. Oyster result of the
conference between a committee of the or
ganized mechanics and the board of con-
troll of the Employers Association.
The Oyster decision in brief was that
members of the Master Plumbers Associa-
ton would not be compelled to employ
union plumbers to the exclusion of no1-
union plumbers, and that the union jour-
neymen plumbers would not be compelled
to work on jobs with non-unionists
1t was pointed out today that none of
the union workmen have returned to work
on the Metropolitan Club house or the
buildings being erected by Middaugh &
Shannon, had been decided by the con-
ference, 1t is said. Referring to this fall
leading mechanic said today:
we do not consider that we are bound
by the Oyster decision, and l believe the
council will decide to ignore it at the meet
ing tomorrow evening"
1t is understood that the board of gov
ernors of the Employers Association will
meet Wednesday afternoon and take ac-
the Building Trades Mechanics Council
Several plans of action have already been
tentatively mapped out, It is said, and
one Of these will be carried into effect.

GIVES THE BOYS A CHANCE.
Trust Fund Enabling Sons of Railway
Employees to Acquire Education.

Through trust fund recently established
by the children of the late Frank Thomson,
formerly president of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, scholarships have been
established and are to be known as The
Thomson Scholarships" These scholarships
are intended by the children as a memorial
to their father.
The income of this fund is to be used to
give the sons of living or deceased employees
of the Pennsylvania railroad lines east and
west of Pittsburg an opportunity to secure
a technical education, to better qualify
them for employment by the Pennsylvania
railroad lines. Upon the request of the
donors, the railroad company has under
taken to provide for the selection from time
to time of the persons to receive the benefit
of the scholarships under the trust fund.
The terms of this trust provide that eight
scholarships shall be established, for a pc
scholastic year. 1901190S; two added. for
the year 19OS-19O9; two added for the year
1909-1910; two added for the year i9l0-l9ll.
There will thus be eight holders of scholar
ships In 1910. and this number will be main
tanned in succeeding years, providing the
income is sufficient therefor.
Competitive examinations, which are open
to sons of all employees of TIE Pennsylvania
lines, are to be held this month for the two
19OIl00S scholarships. These examinations
will embrace subjects corresponding in gem
eral to the entrance requirements OF the
scientific departments of the higher-cass
universities, colleges and technical schools.
The college entrance examination board
of New York city has been selected as the
agent of the railroad company TO conduct
the coming examinations.
