METHOD OF CURING CLOVER DWARF PEARS IN MUCH FAvoF
ment Station in Caring for Hay
Crop with Little Waste.
eRY PROF. G. ". GowEI.La

Id IAN1l - y - AsA#AA#
The practice of the Maine agrieul-
tural experiment station in curing
clover is to NOV IL when there is a
prospect of dry weather for a couple
of days and when il is free from water
or dew and let 1t lie as cut that day,
or, if it has wilted somewhat ON the
surface. turn it by hand or tedder just
before night.
If not turned the first afternoon 1t
is turned or teddered the second day
and again toward noon.
In the afternoon of the second day
it is put into cocks about five feet
high. Ordinarily It is wilted at this
time. but If the weather has turned
dark or the clover is very heavy, por-
tions of il are liable to be unwilted,
in which case the cocks are made
smaller.
The cocks are made by using small
forkfuls nattened out so that it will
come off IN layers when handled again.
As it cures ii settles. and unless the
cocks are high in proportion to their
width they will fatten out. which Is
wrong.
The walls are kept perpendicular
three-fourths of the way up and then
gradually drawn in. Much time need
not be consumed in making the
punches, as it Is quickly done.
One condition is imperative-the
clover must go into the cock free from
rain or dew. 1t can be safely cooked
when containing lots of water from its
own juices, but not when even a little
moist from water.
We allow it to stand in cocks three
or four days, or longer, before disturb.
ing it. On n day in which the air Is
dry we open mp the punches SO that
the air can draw through them, and
usually after about two hours expo.
sure the hay is ready to draw TO the
barn. 1t is not necessary to tear 1t
apart and wear it out, as it readily
parts with its own moisture. which is
chiefly near the center and the bot
tom of the punches.
If rain falls while the clover is in
the bunch it does not wet IL deeply
after the punches have been made for
a few hours. When rain w let
the punches alone and the water dries
out of itself when sound weather
comes again.
To successfully cure clover or other
fodder plants in this way it is essen
tial to let the cocks alone and allow
them to cure and dry out nndisturbed.
Glover thus cured and aired out just
before putting into the barn does not
burn in the NOV or come out dusty.
In midwinter a handful from the NOW
can be twisted into a knot without
breaking the stocks or %wringing off
the leaves.
We also cure green oats and peas
in the same way. Out of 80 tons
weighed into the barn one year and
fed out IN winter all of the oats made
from it by the cattle were collected
and saved in II stack.
This method of curing succeeds in
ordinary weather. OF course heavy,
prolonged rains mean defeat to this or
any system unless the punches are
covered with cloth or fiber caps.

Care of Farm Implements,

Are your hay tools lying out in the
field where you used them last? And
that binder-isn't it still standing out
In the oat field right where you un-
hitched from it when the last bundle
was bound? Do you always leave your
plows, cultivators and harrows scat
tored around the farm that way dur
ing the winter? Broken handles and
levers and rust galore will be your
portion when you run them out for
use in the spring. All things consid-
cred, shed room is mighty cheap.

Tree Grows a Needle.

It take all kinds of trees to make
a world, and some OF them are very
curious. The Mexican maguay tree
is said to furnish a needle and thread
all ready for use. At the tip of each
dark green leaf is a slender thorn
needle that must be carefully drawn
from its sheaths at the same time it
slowly unwinds fiber attached to the
thorn, and capable Of being drawn out
to a great length.

The Man for the Farm.

The ideal hired man on the farm is
one who farms because he is in love
with the work, and who studies the
best methods of agriculture, both by
observation and books and papers.
and who prefers the Clearly, orderly
and healthy occupation of farm life to
the squalid and disturbing influence OF
the city.
The hired man who receives from
$50 to $40 per month and his board
the ear around, is better off financial
ly and more often becomes independ.
ent than many city workmen whose
wages are three times as much.

RussIa's State Monopoly.

The following report issued from
Russia presents a striking comment
on the possibilities Of state-sold al
cohol:
"A Pan-Russian anti-alcoho1ic con
gress was recently summoned and was
duly opened with much ceremony.
A police decree was issued stimuli
taneously f%orbidding all speeches
against the state monopoly Of the
spirit shops and of the sale of vodka.
The congress was thus unable to con
tinue."

PIoWs from Canada.

According to Consul General James
w. Ragsdale of Halifax, a Canadian
pillow company has, during the past
few months shipped from Brantford,
Ont, eight carloads of traction plows
to the United States and has received
definite specifications for IS carloads
more for shipment before April /.
This is probably the first time that a
Canadian manufacturer in this line
has successfully entered the United
States market.

Dwarf pear trees have been in much

tion and tongues have been wagging
ever since. Mr.. Darrow's speech was a
distinct departure from the usual treat
ment of the booze question by either
the advocates or opponents of the Ii
cense system. Rarely is an address on
this subject delivered without a broad,
side of statistics being fired at the
heads of the audience until the mind
becomes lost in a maze of mathematical
calculation. Mr.. Darrow cut away from
statistics and presented his views on
the question in a dispassionate argu
mentative presentation. His hearers
were never left in doubt as to his sym
pathy with the workers of the nation
and his appeal for a square deal for the
producers of wealth met with ready
response. Opinions may differ on the
subject of the wisdom of prohibition,
but all who heard the address will
agree that his is master mind and
that he has made a study of crimi-
nology and its cause as have but few
other men in the country.

John c. Higgins, who thimble-rigged the
King County Republican delegation,
was there pleading for two of the five
members of the court and to no avail.
Immediately the piteous plea went up
all over the state; a plea which TO have
any effect, must be made to an unin-
formed voter. 1t is for the purpose of
informing this voter as to the true
state of facts and their significance that
this is written.
There is but one answer to this plea.
These judges did all in their power, all
that men could do, to remove the nomi
nation of the Supreme Court justices
from the people; they did it for their
own selfish ends, if not to further the
ends of interests inimical to the people.
Their conduct merits rebuke from the
people. They should be defeated.

SOME WEIRD DECISIONS
OF OUR SUPREME COURT
A Few Concrete Cases Quoted Below In Which Court
Favors Corporations y Voters Warned Of What
May Be Expected If Present Judges Are Returned.

an incompetent employee, would have
been sufficient to render the master
liable. Under Judge Morris opinion the
employee must WARN and THREAT
EN- TO LEAVE THE JOB, in order to
render liable his employer. Should EN-
ployees generally obey the instructions
of the court in this instance you can
safely wager dollars to doughnuts that
the same court would Immediately en-
join them from doing as the court had
instructed.
But here is perhaps a more interest
ing phase of the question in which the
court has completely reversed it
self in favor of the CORPORATIONS.
In the case of Howe vs. Northern Pa
cific R. r., 30 Wash, $40 s, the court
says: "a brakeman is not q fellow
servant of either conductor of two col
liding trains" Again in the case of
Grount VS.. Tacoma Eastern R. r. 33
Wash, 533-4: ga brakeman is not
fellow servant of a conductor under
whom he works" and again in the case
of Morrison vs. Northern Pacific X. r.,
"a, Wash, 20; "a conductor is not a
fellow servant of brakeman of an
other train"
The reversal of the court comes in
January, 1910, in the case of Craig vs..
Great Northern r. R., So Wash, GAO:
HERE THE COURT DECLARES THE
CONDUCTOR AND MOkTOrNGAN TO
BE FELLOW SERVANTS AND THE
COMPANY NOT LIABLE FOR THE
INJURY.
We thus see that our supreme court
has within the last two years COM
pletely reversed itself on the issues of
Fellow Servant, Assumption of Risk
and Contributory Negligence doctrines.
Where it has previously shown sym
ptoms of fairness it suddenly changes
and becomes absolutely unrair.
Is it any wonder that court that
has reversed itself as I have shown
on these questions of the utmost inn
portance to the people should be afraid
to come before the people at the pri-
maries Is it any wonder that the State
Librarian practically the secretary to
the Supreme Court felt called upon to
prepare a bill for the legislature which
eliminated the Supreme Court Judges
from the primaries and put them back
into the CORPORATION CONTROLL-
ED CONVENTION system that the
people had repudiated? Is it any Won

YOU CAN'T CRUSH A MOVEMENT
BUILT OF MEN LIKE THIS.

Look here, some of you union men,
who think you are willing to sacrifice
for your organization. An old gentle
man, gray haired, stopped of shoulder,
his race of life nearly run, came into
the Labor Temple Wednesday morning.
He carried a card in the United Mine
Workers, and for sixty years has work
ed with a miners pick.
Called out with his fellow workers
ON strike few months ago, his age and
feebleness precluded his turning to nay
other avocation except the one that had
given him precarious livelihood for
three score years.
Do you think that old man would
scabf Not he.
Over in Black Diamond he had friends
and brothers, and with the courage of
lion he started alone and without
funds to reach his friends. He came
into the Temple and in quavering tones
told his story. II rang true. You
can tell the spurious appeal from the
genuine sometimes We helped him on
his way and we wondered as the old
man took his departure, how many
union men half his age would take the
road without dollar in defense of
principlef
There are heroes, in the labor move
ment, boys, and though the world never
hears of them. they are the rock on
which the trade union movement builds.
