STEEL TRUSTS NOTED MOVE.
How Sunday Work Is to Be Cut Down
to the Minimum.

W tnc tViUifUufns
Two hundred thousand workingmen
are affected potentially by decisive
position taken by the executive OFF,
GERS Of the United States Steel corpo-
ration with respect to seven day work
Exceptional and unnecessary Sunday
work Is to be cut to the minimum.
and there is to be at least twenty-four
hours interval during each week in
the production Of ingots. Seven day
work in the continuous processes is
not as yet done away with, however
Progressive action in this direction is
In line with practical judgments long
held by some of the broadcast men In
the industry. Officials of the corpo-
ration are authority for the statement
that equally serious consideration is
being given to the question of the CON-
pulsory six day week for the men in
the continuous processes.
E. II. Gary, chairman of the finance
committee of the United States Steel
corporation, has sent telegram to
the presidents Of the constituent CON-
panies which should radically curtail
Sunday work at all steel works, roll
ing mills, shops, quarries and docks
controlled by the CORPORATION. AS the
corporation has 100000 men on its
payrolls. the change is national and
sweeping in effect. Acting with Chair
man Gary in the matter are President
w. E. Corey and Vice President w. b.
Dickson. The telegram reads:
March p, 1910
Mr.. Corey. Mr.. Dickson and 1 have
lately given much serious thought to the
subject matter Of resolution passed by
finance committee April %. 1907, concern
ing Sunday or seventh day labor. Mr.
Corey has written you on the subject
within a day or two. The object of this
telegram is to say that all of us expect
and insist that hereafter the spirit of the
resolution will be observed and carried
into effect. There should and must be no
unnecessary deviation without first TAX
ing up the question with our finance COM
mittee and asking for a change of the
views of the committee, which probably
VIII not under any circumstances be Sc
cured l emphasize the fact that there
should be at least twenty-four continuous
hours interval during each week in the
production of ingots. +. III. GARY.
Some or the leading men in the steel
business have long favored the elm
nation of seven day work, and this
resolution referred to in Mr.. Gary's
telegram was passed by the finance
committee April %, 1907.
On motion it was voted to recommend
to all subsidiary companies that Sunday
labor be reduced to the minimum; that all
work, excepting such repair work as can
not be done while operating, be suspend
ed on Sunday at all steel works, rolling
mills. shops, quarries and DOCKS that
there shall be no construction work, load
ing or unloading of materials
1t is understood that it is not at present
practicable to apply the recommendation
to all departments, notably the blast fur
naces, but 1t is desirable that the spirit of
the recommendation be observed to the
fullest extent within reason.

~HE selection of the breed Of
poultry is always a momen-
tous problem to the beginner.
There are some poultry breed
ers and far too many farmers who
make this problem of breed selection a
continual one and are always chang
ing or sending away for a sitting of
eggs of some newly advertised breed
of poultry or swapping ROSTERS with
the neighbors. Such fickleness, Of
course, prevents all progress.
For those who are breeding standard
bred poultry and whose main object in
keeping fowls is to win the prizes at
the shows and thereby sell stock to
farmers and other breeders the selec-
ton of breed is most important ques-
ton. Could one always select the
breed which is to be popular five or
ten years hence making money in poul-
try breeding would be an easy prob
lem. Indeed, we could all get rich If
we knew the future, but as it is the
