The only session Of the dav open to

when President D.. II. Hill. of A. & NJ.

iect was The Efficient Farmer" 1t
was Il very able address. practical, and
was enthusiastically received.
There has been q great change"
he said. lin the farmers point of view
in recent years He showed how the
farmer has come to be anxious for all
the help he can get from science and
every other source. This change IS
due to three things:
First. HI agricultural college,
which spreads before the farmer an
immense body Of facts, and these were
added to by the Departments Of Agri-
culture, State and National, and by
agricultural and other farm papers.
Second. The needs of the soil drove
to a desire of help.
Third. Travel. schools and greater
opportunity helped in the change Of
point Of view.
DR.. Hill said the farmer will be
most efficient when he is prepared
we'll enough to owe his business so that
he can etter it with enthusiasm: when
he can do his work economically to
the best advantages: when he is will
ing to aid his frot1 er farmer. W
are not here he said. ito glOrifv the
man who makes the most on a single
acre. but the man who produces most
on the largest m of acres at the
least possible cost The efficient
farmer knows how to handle his soil:
he knows how to handl live stock:
he knows how to manage his crop
after it is PLANTED.
In answer to the question how all
this can be secured. the speaker en-
phasized the teaching Of agriculture.
The elements of agriculture should
be taught in the public schools and

bama, nearly 10000 mfneworkers are
employed. OF this number, but a
small per cent. of the total are organ
lied, and what is true of the states
named also applies to large section
of the bituminous and anthracite dis
tricts of Pennsylvania as well as Colo
RADIO. Costly and unsuccessful efforts
have been made to organize these dis.
tricts through the medium of strikes.
The amount spent for aid alone in
support of strikes in the states OF
Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky
Tennessee, Alabama and Colorado
since the year 1900, amounts to nearly
three million dollars, and to this large
sum should be added the amount Of
money spent to maintain number Of

Legislative Features.

On the legislative features of min
ing interests, President Lewis spoke
strongly in favor of law to eliminate
the injunction evil in labor disputes,
and for the enactment of general
employers liability law, and recon-
mended the legalization of labor I'M
ions.
On the wage contract feature of
he workers activity, President Lewis
spoke in favor of the joint conference
method of negotiating wage contracts,
which he said has done much to es-
tablsh peace in the mining industry.
On the termination of contracts, he
said, "You are aware that our wage
agreements in nearly every bitumi-
nous district of the country terminate
on March 81 of this year. Let me
make it clear that there will be no
reduction in wages and as many i'm
provements in the agreement as can

Recommend.

We are so positive that our remedy
will permanently relieve constipation,
no matter how chronic it may be, that
we offer to furnish the medicine at
our expense should it fail to produce
satisfactory results.
1t is worse than useless to attempt
to cure constipation with cathartic
drugs. Laxatives or cathartics do
much harm. They cause reaction,
irritate and weaken the bowels and
tend to make constipation more chron-
ic. Besides, their use becomes habit
that is dangerous.
Constipation is caused by a weak
ness of the nerves and muscles of the
| large intestines or descending colon.
To expect permanent relief you must
| therefore tone up and strengthen
these organs and restore them to
healthier activity.
The discovery of the active princi
pie of the remedy involved the labor

stay. Let us put ourselves on record
in the most positive manner, that so
long as one employer insists on the
right to combine with other employ
ers to develop industry, accumulate
wealth and buy labor at the cheapest
possible rate, just that long will mine
workers insist on the right to organ
ize with his fellow mine worker, to
dictate the terms upon which we will
sell our labor.
notwithstanding the tremendous
impulse given to every movement
through unity of purpose, there are
some men among employers of labor
and controllers Of finance, who deny
that unity of action among laboring
people that they, themselves, exercise
in their everyday affairs. They cry
down organized effort among the lab
oring people, under the false alarm

selves the right to organize

Should Be Application OF Com.
mon Sense, According To
7. L. Lewis.

Indianapolis Jan. 21.-"The applica-
ton Of comon sense should be the
basis of the new method Of promot-
ing industrial peace in the mining reg
ions," according to the annual report
of President Thomas L. Lewis, of the
United Mine Workers of America. at
the convention of the miners organi-
zation.
With this as a keynote, the report
continued, Mr.. Lewis saying: THE
strike as a method of organizing has
not proven success. The enormous
expenditure of funds and the tremend
GUS waste of energy incident to in
dustrial strife should be avoided. Our
right to strike can never be surrend
cred, but it should be the very last
resource and every other means ex
hausted before suspension of work
is ordered or takes place.
"A large number of the miners are
anxious and ready to organize, bu
lack of confidence in our ability tt
succeed causes them to be indiffer
ent Many of the operators are real
ly opposed to the organization, bu
are skeptical of our object and fea

In denying aswidespread belief that
the mine workers seek to organize in
the states named to curtail the ship
ment of coal west, President Lewis
said: 1--WE should declare in the most
emphatic manner that it is not our
purpose to organize the non-union
mining districts to curtail their coal
production. We must convince the
operators of those states that we are
sincere in our position We will then
have moved the greatest obstacle in
the way Of organizing West Virginia
and the other states named
The report stated that the anthra-
cite coal region of Pennsylvania eni-
ploys 174,000 mine workers, about 80.
900 of whom are organized, and ex-
planned the condition by saying, IAN
investigation and study Of the anthra-
cite situation convinces me that the
inactivity and failure of the mine
workers to be better organized is due
principally to their own indifference.
The same condition applies to many
of the bituminous mining districts.
Standard Of Wages.
Mr.. Lewis declared that the wage
agreement now in effect in the anthra
cite region does not provide a proper
standard of wages, and is not what
the mine workers desire. And in re
gard to the present agreement, he
said: when the industrial condi
lions in the anthracite region and the
entire country at that time are care
fully considered the representative:
OF the United Mine Workers were for
tunate in being able to convince thu
anthracite operators to grant conces
sions in order to negotiate and sigl
contract. The most gratifying fea
ture of the situation in the anthracite
district at present is the disposition
of the mine managers and their en-
plcyes to settle disputes locally"
President Lewis declared that hi
judgment was that the miners of Nov
Scotia now on strike should receiv
the encouragement and support of tn
organization. He also declared in faN
or of the introduction and use of az
pliances to decrease the dangers il
cident to mining as of paramount in
portance. He also presented table
taken from government reports show
ing that in thirteen years, from 1879
to 1908. there We're 22,716 lives sacr
feed in the coal mines, and that 6
772 men were injured in the mines i
1908. He urged the creation of
Bureau of Mines, and the establish
ment of measures to lessen danger
of mining.
