WORKERS.

WHEELING. Jan. 1O.-The official
count of the votes OF the United Mine
Workers, which will be given out at
the convention 10 be held in Indian
apolis n week from next Monday, is
all that is necessary to show that T..
L. Lewis, the Bridgeport man has
been elected president OF the organI.
zation. The prediction made in the
News two weeks ago based on par
tlal unofficial returns from half doz-
en- of the big districts, has been con-
firmed by further unofficial returns,
which are absolutely correct.
All the official vote can tell that Is
not known now, is the majority Mr..
Lewis will receive. His friends be-
lIeve 1t will run into five figures and
there is evidence to show that it will
be the greatest majority ever given a
candidate for any office in the nation
al organization where there was op.
position.
Unofficial returns which will not bs
changed one vote to the local from
seven States show Mr.. Lewis far ahead
OF his opponent, and the chances are
good for him carrying every district
in the national organization, except
two. and he may get those two which
are in the territory where It was
thought he was weakest.

BAD ventilation.

Few dairy farmers really understand
what good ventilation means. 1t is a
common thing to see hay chute left
open over the cows with the impression
that 1t will create current of air to
vcntlate the stable. The fact Is. !"
stable, to be ventilated, must have the
mir drawn Off from near the floor This
is where the bad air accumuiates. a
shaft that simply takes the best air
from near the ceiling is damage.
Toul air is from 10 to 20 per cent heav-
Ter thar pure air. The only system OF
ventilation that is worth the name will
admit pure air from outdoors near the
ceiling and draw Off the foul air from
near the floor, says Farm Press. Any
thing short Of this should not be called
vcutllating the stable.
