The Wisconsin State Federation of
Labor opened its eighteenth annual
convention at WATERFOWL with more
than one hundred delegates present.
That the recent political victory of
the Socialists in Milwaukee will be a
vital force in the future expansion of
the federation In the state SENS to
be the predominating thought here.
The federation is controlled by Social
lists.
An attack upon the American FEEDER
alton of Labor was one Of the fea-
lures of the report of Frank Weber,
business agent of the Federated
Trades council in Milwaukee and gen.
eral state organizer. Mr. Weber said;
There are now 119 national and In.
ternational unions affiliated with the
A. F. of L. Each one is encroaching
on or claiming part of the work of
some other union. This proves beyond
question of doubt that there could
and should be at least consolidation
of certain national and international
unions.
According to statistics, the union
men in the United States spend not less
than $1,000,000,000 a year for the ne
cessities of life. When trade unionists
apply their immense purchasing pow
er then they will have gone a long
way toward obliterating the wrongs
and injustices that exist In our indus
trial system.
1--WE cannot deny that the wives of
the workmen are greatly at fault that
there is no greater demand for the
product of union labor The duty of
the husband is to call the wife's at
tention to the principles of trade
unionism."

SPRAY FOR POTATO BEETLE
Most Growers Neglect Applying Pol

The chief difficulty in spraying for
the potato beetle seems to be that
most growers postpone applying the
poison until the beetles have obtained
good start upon the vines. The best
time to kill them is Immediately. or
soon after they hatch.
The destructive season of the bee

but it can be depended upon to fur

Naples, March 31.-The towns of
Borello and Belpasso are today be-

continued spread of the lava flow
from Mount Etna.
These towns are now wholly de-
populated and soldiers stand guard to
prevent any of che residents from

Will eventually reach the sea. Mes
sages from Catania say that the ad-
vance of the stream In the direction
of that town has been checked by
the hills TO the north and west and
that the flow is now turned toward
the coast.

no dimunition from that of yester-
day when thirty craters poured out
their molten streams.

That some of these people are guilty

should be prosecuted. But these in

SEEKING NEW PENCIL WOODS.

Recent conferences of representa-
tives of the Department of Agricul-
ture with several lead pencil manu-
facturers have resulted in plans for
testing new woods to find out whether
they can be used in the pencil industry
According to some of the manufacture
ers, the supply of red cedar, which
furnishes practically all the wood for
the annual output of some 325, 900 900
pencils, will be exhausted within five
years. A substitute must be found
which will whittle easily, which shall
contain large amount of material
free from knots, which shall occur not
porous, nor spongy, nor undqly hard,
and which shall occur in sufficient
quantities to meet the manufacturers
demand.
In view of this and at the suggestion
of the pencil makers. the Forest Ser
vice is 10 cooperate in a test of a mum
Der of National Forest woods. Among
those to be tried are Rocky Mountain
red cedar, alligator juniper western
juniper redwood, incense cedar, west
ern cedar Port oxford cedar, and AL
aska cypress. Wood specimens col
lected from the National Forests will
be sent to four leading manufactures,
who have agreed to make pencils of
of them. The manufacturers will keep
a record of the tests and report to the
Forest Service the results, as we'll as
their judgment as to the fitness of the
individual woods.
The Forest Service is assisting in
the National Forest large quantities
of jumpers and cedars which may be
for pencil manufacture. For
several of these woods no very valu-
able use has yet been discovered.
Foresters believe that in the future
the woods from the National Forests
may to considerable extent, come in

stock of easterIf WOODS, the supply OF
