Partial Cow Ration.

Nc one would attempt to run a steam
engine. that was driving a modern
thresh1ng outfit with but 80 pounds
OF steam. Yet many dairymen at
tempt to get profitable results from
their COW by feeding them a partial
ration. They attempt to run them
with but thirty pounds of steam"
Chemists tell us that two-thirds of
what q COW consumes goes to maintain
her body. The remainder goes toward
milk production.
It is evident to all that the profit
must. come from the feed over and
above that which the COW requires for
maintenance. and that the more she
eats the greater will be the profit.
There are many good COWS in the
country that are not recognized as
such and can not be made profitable
unless they receive more feed. There
is no profit in feeding partial rations
to mich COWS. We can not get O
liable results running cows on thirty
pounds Of steam" If there is a food
shortage, one might better feed full
rations to half the number rather thar
feed the many on half rations. In the
latter case there will be much work
and little profit. In the former. the
COWS are sure to give profitable returns
!! and the labor of caring for the herd
would be much lessened.-Milk Re

Notes of the Farm.

When hens lay s%oft-shelled eggs II
is a sign they are too fat. Cut doVA
the amount of grain and feed more
vegetables and green food.
Chicken should never he eaten the
day it is killed. The tenderest FRESH

In about twelve hours, however, the
muscles will relax, and it then becomes
acceptable for food.

Puts Union Above the Law and
U. S. Judge Refuses CITIZENSHIP

Danville, Ill.-U. S. Judge Wright
refused naturalization to w. Strong,
a memberof the United Mine Workers
Of America. When asked IF it came
to the point that the union and the
laws Of the United States differed
which should you follow?" Strong
answered: "The union, of course"
Judge Wright says: II can never
grant the right of citizenship in the
United States to any man who follows
the dictates of his trade union rathey
than the laws Of our land"
Orange County observer. [volume] (Hillsborough, N.C.) 1880-1918, 1909-03-25

Former Warden John M. Fox is uu-
thority for the statement that a ma
jority of the men imprisoned in the
WorkhOuse - probably Seventy-fve
per cent.-would never have been
there could they have found employ
ment. In this connection one magis-
trate said:
my experience is that there is
more distress among the worthy poor
now than at any time in the last
twelve years. I have committed,
cent men this winter than I have sent
there before in any five years of my
term as magistrate"
Distress Among Women.
Mary E. Dreier, president of the
Women's Trade Union League, said:
This year the distress among
EMomen workers has beengreater than
ever before. It is pitiful. The saw
ings of years have been exhausted,
and to this misfortune is added a
woman's constant dread of sickness.
Others constantly fear being thrown
out of work, and this is too often the
case. Manufacturers do not now lay
in a large stock which will keep these
| women busy. They, fill orders on
short notice. They want fifty girls at
once. The girls complete the order
in two days, and are then dismissed.
This is true in all branches of gar
ment trades. This high tension is
! making the women of New York ply
| steal and wrecks. It is a
most deplorable condition of affairs"
Frank Julian Warne, whose efforts
for a bill now pending in Albany,
| creating a commission to inquire into
the aus and effects O. the unem-
! ployed in New York State, and to sug-
| gest remedies, are meeting with gen
! eral appreciation from all organiza-
tons, said:
mot wishing to be sensational, but
as truthful as possible in our limited
way of getting accurate figures on
present industrial conditions, it is alb
solutely fair to say that more than
100000 men are looking for work in
New York City alone.
Crowded to the Roofs.
Look at any. city institution to-day
where the INDECENT get aid. They are
crowded to the roofs-the city can't
care for more. The hospitals are
filled and so are the insane asylums.
Where will New York place her un-
fortunates in another year if the pres
ent ratio of unemployed keeps up?
It is a terrible question to face.
when a city's wardens turn out
200 prisoners before their terms
have expired to make room for incom.
ing crowds, o may imagine what
demands are made on the city's insti.
tutions."
Professor John Bates, of Columbia
University, in suggesting a remedy
for the economic i'll, says:
"Loss of employment by large bod.
les OF men personally fit is due to
mal-adjustment, since there is never
a time when there is not within the
limits of society to which. these me1
belong a need of their labor and
chance to dispose of its produce. The
trouble would now be relieved by {
migration from populous centres t
the country"
} Percy Alden, M. p, in "sThe IN
employed" says: There is a rapid!
growing feeling that the .communit.
has a responsibility for the unem
ployed and must discharge that re
sponsibility, not by inficting pain
and penalties upon the genuine work
er, but by enabling him to find work.

New York City.-Suppose a parade
of the unemployed in Greater New
York should start from the Battery
to-day. How far uptown do you sup
pose its van would extend before the
last man wheeled into line? The an
swer vouched for by the noted charity
labor workers of New York gives
Central Park at least unanimously,
or a distance of about six miles.
Herman Robinson, general organ
izer of the American Federation of
Labor. states that at least forty per
cent. of the members of the labor
unions in New York City are unem-
ployed. The latest report of the State
Department of~Labor gives TIE menu
bership of labor unions in this city
as 100000. The present member
ship should be we'll above 100000,
but inability to pay dues has caused
more than 10000 union men to lose
their membership cards.
100000 Idle Union Men.
According to Mr.. Robinson there
would then be at least 100000 union
men out of work in New York City.
OF homeless men and Migrants the
number is, under ordinary conditions,
about 10000. From such meagre
facts as may be collected the total
number of New York's unemployed is
more than 100000. Imagine such a
host-enough to populate a city al
most as large as Rochester.
That the cause of the astonishing
number out Of work at the end of
1908 was not due to strikes or sick
ness, but rather to the depression OF
business. It is represented by the
following table: az

A Stupendous Army.
Never in the history of any great
municipality has such a stupendous
army of unemployed been collected
at one time, according to the eco
nomic statiscians who have com.
piled the above figures. and others
for the information Of the Legislators
at Albany. !,

Dear Sir:I nave a friend in the

Eczema, and like myself has tried all

would soon be relieved, for it is the only
thing that I ever used that would kill it.
and I ought to know for I nave had it
for 10 years, and never got any relief
that II he would try it, and it failed to
benefit him, it would cost him nothing,
l would pay for it myself; but I am not
uneasy as to the results.
It will kill any corn, for my wife had
one that ave her no end Of misery, and
| prevailed upon her to. use Tetterine
freely on it. and it soon disappeared.
There is nothing equal to it.
