We very frequently see articles
which mention the big crops the
farmers are raising and which give
figures Of the value Of the farm
products that are simply dazzling in
their greatness. Not often, however,
do we see anything about the other
side. Belew we give an article from
the aFarmers Union" written by M.
HcAuliffe, the State President OF
that organization, and the editor OF
the paper, himself practical farmer.
In as much as it throws a little light
on the farmers side Of the wheat
raising business it is timely contri-
button, and we publish it in full.
Since Secretary Wilson issued his
crop report for.the year 1909 showing
the value of the crops produced by
the farmers Of the United States ev-
cry newspaper in the land is full Of
comments Of the fabulous greatness
of the wealth Of the farmers. 1t is
true the gross value Of the crops pro.
duced by the farmers this year and
every year, is so great that we cant
readily form any idea Of their great
ness but we deny that it is anywhere
near what Secretary Wilson's report
makes it. Like the bumper wheat
crop Of Kansas it will failto material
ize. r
Now if Secretary Wilson or Secre.
tary Coburn would take the pains to
compile the cost of producing this
enormous crop and publish the mel
proceeds as well as the gross pro.
ceeds we would be more astonished
at the small amount of clear money
the farmers have made on this grea
crop. But we suppose that Wilson
and Coburn both are like a grea
many other peopIe-they don't thinl
that the farmers should have any pal
, for his laborS, but should be satisfied
to get living and a few Of the cheap
est kind of clothes. We are sick ant
tired Of hearing about the wealth o
the farmer-the farmers bank &C
count and all this abominable 70
about the great prosperity Of tn
farmers, which those who have 81
much to say about do not believ'
themselves, but if they can make tht
farmers believe that they, the farmers
are the only class that are trul.

Bishop Potter was known as
quite a wit, and often took de-
light in turning his humor loose
on his associates, but here is an
instance where the joke though
quite unintentional, was on the
bishop. He was to preach at a
certain parish in the West in the
evening, and the congregation
was not a little amused at the
somewhat ambiguous announce.

eral In Gifts to Hatters.
The Boot and Shoe Workers union
international convention, in recent BIZ
ennial session at Syracuse, \. Y, was
especially harmonious. There were
243 delegates present. representing all
the states and Canada.
The recent trouble the union has un-
dergone at Brockton. involving the use
of the label, was the subject of much
discussion, resulting in approval of the
action of the international officers by
an almost unanimous vote-240 to 3.
In the matter of the strike of the hat
tiers, as far back as March 30, during
the label conference in Washington,
the shoe workers donated $4,000 to
the former and later loaned the strik-
ers $1,000 additional. The convention
Cancelled the loan, adding it to the
unions former donation, and put an
other $4,000 with it. making the sHoe
workers total contribution to the hat
ters' strike fund $4,000.
1t is claimed for the Shoe Workers
union that there is no parallel in the
history of the labor movement wherein
an organization could pass through a
business depression such as the last
two years have seen and retain its
solvency-indeed, have money to
burn" as we vulgarly say. Within its
jurisdiction the membership has in
creased steadily, and fair wages, hours
and conditions of employment have
been constantly maintained.

The success that the typographical

international organizations to consider
