The merchants of the state are well justified in asking that the sub stitute for Senate Bill Mo- 113, con- corning the hours of labor of women and minors be passed. They desire to impress the legislative committee that it is the general desire and wish of the merchants that they be per mitted to keep open their stores on Saturday evening until 10 o'clock and in the smaller towns on Mon day evening. It is, however, distinct ly understood that it is NOT the pur- pose of the merchants to lengthen the hours of labor but to so arrange that they may have the necessary time to carry on their business to suit the convenience of the people WEo patronize them.

Last Tuesday afternoon, about 4 o'clock, the home of MT and Ms Ar mold Geissman, Jr., vest of Dodg- ingtown, burned to the ground. MT and Mrs Geissman were out driving and their son started brisk fire in the kitchen stove and it is thought sparks from the chimney set fire to the roof. It was not discovered until it had gained great headway and the wind was blowing such gale that nothing could be done to save the house, so those who had gathered turned in and saved most of the fur niture. There was some insurance on the house but none on the furnl- ture. It was rather sad home-com- ing for MT and Mrs Geissman to find their home in ashes. They have the sympathy of the whole community.

This kind of a when one starts to taln about pens, but it always changes when they use Moore's Non-Leakable Fountain Pen. The Moore is a marvel among pens for it does away with all the faults which the other pens have. The shaking which most pens get before they will do their duty is very anoying, but none of this with a Moore.

GOOD TIMES FOR FARMERS.

While talking with business man from a nearby city, one day last week, about the prospect of better times, etc., my friend made rne state ment that it must be good times with the farmers" l told him the the dairy farmer could hardly make expenses at the present price of milk and grain, and to prove my state ment I will give few figures which may be of interest to some of our wise friends who assert we are be- coming overburdened with the cares of increasing wealth. On Saturday, May 8, I weighed all grain fed to my dairy of 31 COWS, feeding very care fully to get an average amount in order to be accurate. The day was fine making the milk yield something like 20 to 50 pounds higher than if it had been stormy. Grain was best wheat mixed feed, corn cob meal and cotton-seed meal. The 31 cows were fed 35S pounds grain or Il 1a pounds each. At the market price:
 35S lbs feed at $1.60 cwt, 5 5.73
 15 tbs hay each by estimate
 at $15 a ton, 3.49

At 15c an hour, 1872 hr!

We have a balance of 79c over what the feed cost. Now deduct the labor; 1872 hours at 15c an hour. i am just $1.9S behind. l think any dairyman of experience will allow that this is about the right weight of grain for profit, 10 to 12 lbs, and that it is above the average amount of milk produced. It seems to me there must be a screw loose some where and I think it would be good thing to thresh out this problem and try to find where the trouble is. 1 would like to have statements from other producers and see if they can not show better result. Have not mentioned the question of taxes, in- surance, interest on investment or cost of teams and many other things. [E. S. Lowell, NewtOwn.
