CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-Capital and la
bon tonight nestled in the lap OF So
ciety and discussed their relative posi-
lions.
Capital was represented By Franklin
A"cNeagh, Seth Low. ana August
Belmont.
Labor Was represented By Grand
Chief Warren 3 +. Stone. Of the
brotherhood Of Engineers; President
W. u. Mahon, OF the Amalgamated
Street Railway Employees. and Incl
dentally by Miss Gertrude Beeks. who
spoke somewhat from both stand
points.
society was repI eseuted by Mrs Pot
ter Palmer. TIE hosts were brought to-
gether for the stated purpose OF form
ing a branch fNr Chicago or the Ma
tional Civic FEDERATION. They did not
form the branch. they did not indicate
when the organization would be made.
and adjourned to the lunch and the
punch after hearing the chairman and
five speakers tell what the two sides
thought OF each other.
All OF this took place in Mrs. Pal
mer's marble palace.
To Promote Good Feeling.
The spirit OF the gathering. as taken
from the addresses of the men Of money.
was that the promoters desired 10 pro
mote good feeling between the worker
and his employer.
There was no suggestion OF arbitra-
ton OF differences. That method OF set
tlement was expressly disclaimed as a
purpose. The suggestion was that the
members Of the one element should ap-
preach the other in a spirit OF concil-
iation that would create basic feel
ing Of mutual whatever that
is-that would Of Itself make strikes inn
possible and difficulties infrequent.
Mrs. Palmer was the hostess OF both
the factions. She, with the other rep
resentatives OF society, looked on while
the gigantic factors in the nations
progress looked each the other In the
eye and stated their views candldly.
Society for the time left OF its evening
clothes. The halls OF the mansion had
never held a gathering before that came,
hguratively. in its shit sleeves.
No Path Outlined.
To this general iridescent dream there
was no tangible path outlined The
time and the place and the method Of the
approach OF one faction 20 the other
was not given hint The end was held
up as a thing 10 ne desired. but the
means 70 attain this end did not appear
between the lines Of the discussion.
The men OF clubs ckatted in one part
OF the palatial home. IN the other side
OF the house men OF toll hooked at
great pictures, Coniured upon canvas by
masters and enshrined by wealth In
the salon women Of the gay set discussed
the charity bah, the streets of Paris
and the latest mode.

An Enemy to Shade Grown Tobacco.

AN EHCI1ly 10 OllduC 0AOWu OOdNNO'
Thrips in shade grown tobacco is
increasing in Florida. The opinion
is expressed by many planters that if
it is allowed to continue its ravages
the disease will be IN a fair way to
completely check the production Of
tent tobacco in this state and Georgia.
SO successful has been the raising Of
this type of leaf that there are now
5000 acres grown under cover iii
Florida and Georgia.
The y. S. Department of Agrlcul-
ture in a recent bulletin, states that
of natural checks for thrips rain is
the most important Among artificial
remedies for control Of thrips are
cultural methods and insecticide ap-
plications Considering the former,
it seems advisable that the seed bed be
located outside and some distance
from the tobacco field Thrips in seed
beds located in the fields can largely
be overcome by frequent applications
of kerosene emulsion. Paris green
may also be applied to check the in
SeCtS.
A thorough cultivation of the soil
after the crop is harvested is strong
ly advocated The part irrigation may
take in controlling thrips seems to be
of Importance Several insecticides
have been experimental with for the
eradication of thrips. One of these
consists of one quart rose leaf insecti-
eide, one-half pound whale oil soap
and twenty quarts water. A tobacco
decoction made by boiling one pound
ctr nd n
lon Of water for half an hour is often
found effective. Of all insecticides,
however, kerosene emulsion seems
most satisfactory. 1t consists of two
gallons kerosene, one-half pound hard
soap and one gallon water. The
emulsion should be used on a cloudy
day or late in the evening to avoid
burning the leaf

The Young Man and the South.

What young man can do in the
South and the kind of young man that
can do it is we'll described in an article
in Worlds Work for June, which reads
as follows:
Go South, young man; but do not
go unless you are willing and able to
do a mans work. The trouble from
which these states have suffered over
much already is men who were not
willing to do full mans work But
if you throw away illusions about quick
wealth and get rid Of a number Of
false notions that you have probably
heard about the country and the peO-
pie, and apply yourself to some pro-
ductlve industry for which you are
fitted by temperament and training,
you may easily build fortune, large
or small, according to your ability as
practical man; and you may do some
thing better than make a fortune
you may lead a useful life in helping
to develop rich country and capable
people. You may enjoy life, too, in
healthful climate, if you select your
place Of residence wisely. If you have
brain and Drawn to invest (and char
acter), you can make them yield large
dividends. If you have money to in
vest, you can make that also yield
large dividends; but you will be more
likely to keep your money safe and
to make it earn good dividends if you
manage it yourself.
IF you wish to practice law or to
preach, you will not be so likely TO
succeed. These professions are not
practically in need of recruits in the
South. If you are teacher, and

ercise. If the pens are c1eansed every
once in a while the hogs will also
keep themselves clean, but on the
contrary, if filth and dirt is allowed
to accumulate you cannot expect the
hogs to be clean and to thrive we'll
under filthy conditions that no other
animal could possibly do well under,
In summer the hogs should be turn
ed out into the pasture, where they
can have an abundance of green food
and at the same time supply them
with sufficient amount Of bulk, after
which they crave so much during
the winter months.
Too much care cannot possibly be
given to sows that are about to give
STOCK-C
birth to young. These should not be
fed any feed that has fattening ten
dency, but should at the same time
be we'll nOurlshed.
To be successful with hogs you
have to give them good care and at
tention, and watch over them just
the same as you watch over your
horse and COW.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1907-07-24

especially if. you think more of doing
good work and Of seeing appreciative
results of your work than of earning
large income, you will find field
of usefulness as wide as the most
ardent ambition could ask If you are
all engineer or any such craftsman-~
man who can build things-yOu will
find profitable work and plenty of it.
The land cries out for builders, de-
velopers, workers, practical men; and
great rewards await them. 1t has (and
to spare) philosophers and politicians
and professional men of all the old
sorts.
"A quick success is not easy to win
in the South. It isn't easy to win
anywhere. But in the South it is now
easier than in any other part Of the
Union, for the men who do the right
things at the right places and at the
right times

Tune Bloom.

Commenting on the item from the
Tampa Times about "June Bloom
which we published last week, the
editor of the Volusia County Record
says:
We are certainly getting the warm
summer, and it begins to look as if
we are to have an old time summer
rainy season, with "new ground soak
ers" or "lightwood knot movers"
every day for month. But you need
not bank much on June bloom 1t
never amounts to much.

Taking Care of Pigs.

If you keep razorback hogs and
turn them out upon the range to shift
for themselves, this article will not
be OF any interest to you. But pure
bred swine cannot be made profitable
IN that way, they must have care and
feed. The following directions, from
the Tribune Farmer, are good for any
part of the country:
1t is very unfortunate that at the
present time there should still be
some farmers that have an idea that
a pig will live and thrive we'll under
almost any conditions, and who con-
sequently keep their pigs in filth and
dirt, and then wonder why their hogs
look so poor, while those of their
neighbours are doing SO we'll.
They don't for a minute stop to
realize that it is the difference in the
management that makes such diff
ference in the pigs among the diff
ferent farmers But, then, the man
agement is not the onl ything; the
kind Of stock that one is raising has
also great deal to do with it, as
you cannot raise good hogs when you
have only poor stock to do it from
The beginner should keep we'll in
mind that the kind of stock that he
begins on will go a great way in de-
Gliding whether the raiser is to be
successful or not 1t is generally ad-
vlsable to pay a good price when
first starting in pig raising, and get
a good selection of we'll bred stock
from some popular breeder 1t is not
a good plan to start in with many
more than three to five as a begin
ming; you can then raise and select
the best for breeding purposes, and,
aiming continually toward a better
standard, you will in time, with prop
er care and attention, have d fine
collection Of hogs.
If the person who wishes to raise
hogs lives in a warm climate, he does
not have to be very particular about
the kind of house to put up for shell
ter, but if he happens to be in a
place where severe winters are pre-
valent, a specially good house will be
found to be a necessity for shelter
ing the stock. The place selected
should be situated on high ground, SO
the water can drain away with ease.
The house should run from north to
south, so as to allow the sunlight to
penetrate both sides of it. A cement
floor with a covering of wood on
top will generally be found the best
kind for hog pen. Cement alone
will be found to be too cold, while a
common earth floor is very hard to
keep clean and is not very good for
draining the liquids off.
A suitable Enclosure should be built
wherein the hogs can have plenty of ex-

STRONG AT CLOSE
Was the Stock Market, Although
Downward Trend Of the Previous
Day Was in Evidence Early.

| New York, May 22.--The fall in
prices OF stocks, after proceeding to
some length today, encountered effec-
Tive Resistance and was followed by a
substantial rally. The tone of specu-
lative sentiment continued very I'M
certain, as was evident from the hest
ltaling later movement Of prices. The
check to the decline seemed due in
large part to the headong activities
Of the bear party They We're, how
ever driven to rebuy on large scale
what they had sold in the early part
| Of the day, he demand becoming
urgent towards the close. The ques-
ton Of new securities issues con-
Itinued to be actively discussed, and
rumors on this topic were influential
factors in the early attack of the
bears.
The Vanderbilt group, led by New
York Central, were all affected in this
way. the announcement over night ca
a. $4,000 0o0 note issue by the Cleve-
land Cincinnati. Chicago and st,
Louis forming a basis for reports OF
heavy issues by other companies in
the system. A savage onslaught upon
Reading was another feature of the
attack The calling Of loans by banks
outside of New York was said TO be a
factor in The urgent selling which has
come out this week Reports Of a
large personal loan negotiated by a
capitalist, prominent in the metal and
mining industry were made the basis
Of differences of liquidation for that
account. Heavy selling of z. S. Steel
was thus accounted for and also by
the suppositions of disposal of hold
ings growing out of the expected Off
cial change in the company. The
grain markets derive their greatest
share Of strength from the foreign
crop news today and We're of CORE
spondingly less effect on stocks.
The obvious subsistence Of the pres
sire of liquidation caused growing
uneasiness among the bears and there
was something like a scramble
amongst them TO cover shorts in late
dealings. The substantial net gains
for the day thus produced We're not
sufficient to make up all of yester-
days losses.
