MAKING PLANS.
Farmers Making Sure of Enough
Laborers to Work Their Farms.

NEW YORK, April 2S.-New York
farmers are already making plans for
their summer labor and hundreds OF
immigrants who have registered their
names with the assistant commission
ct OF agriculture are being provided
with places. Applications for help
are coming early this year, following
the issuance OF a circular by the
commissioner advising the farmers
not to wait until the last minute. The
commissioner thus explains the plan
adopted:
"The farmer wanting labor writes
me his requirements, and sends the
money to pay for transportation from
New York to The destination. We
check the laborers' baggage on the
railroad ticket and send the farmer
the check. This arrangement assures
the farmer that his help will arrive,
Because we do not check any baggage
t1at IS not worth more than the price
Of the railroad ticket"

HOW MUCH FOR YOUR VOTE?
A Good Citizen Taught a Lesson.

Recently a reputable citizen was
approached by another who-asked
him to assist in making thel1
town dry. The good citizen re.
piled that while he admitted there
was no moral ground for permit
ting the liquor traffic, it PAID
So, 900 toward the taxes and that
sum was an item worth consider
ing. The following dialogue then
took place:
"What will you take for your
vote?"
"You insult me, sir. I would
not sell my vote for any money.
