boys mad things all spick and span
for their opening. The Lincoln paint
ers had done their best. likewise the
carpenters and electricians, and every
union man in Lincoln had been John

when the doors were thrown open to
the public for inspection the musi-
clans had all their best there too.
Well, words won't describe the time
that everybody had. Even Maupin
smiled (and that smile brought good
luck for he went home smoking a

1t was gratifying to see the enthns-
iasm of the members. They have
been up against a fearfully hard game,
but they are still full of grit and are
determined to keep on the firing line.
Some good talks were made ard the
outlook discussed freely. Every possi-
BILE pressure has been brought to bear
to induce the men to forsake the or
ganization. but only a scattering few
have been weak enough to succumb.
The vast majority are sticking tight
and strengthening their lines.
Now that the meeting night has
been changed so as to better suit the
men, and the meetings held at the
Temple, it is expected that the meet
ings will be larger and better.
There are some funny things being
attempted in certain quarters, and of
course the employees are being urged
to act as the goats Some of these
days The Wageworker is going to tell

PLAsTERERs REoReANIzE.
Resolve to Get Back Into the Union
Game for Keeps.


The plasterers of Lincoln met at
the Labor Temple Monday night and
resolved to re-organize and get back
into the game. Fourteen men were
present at the meeting, and there was
unanimous sentiment to the effect
that the charter should be brought
back and hung upon the walls of the
Temple. Permanent organization
was not perfected at the meeting, but
after ascertaining that the sentiment
was ali one way it was decided to
meet again in the immediate future,
open up the charter list and get busy.
There was plenty of union enthus-
iasm on tap, and the indications are
that the Plasterers' Union will soon
be counted among the Live Ones" of
Lincoln. When the Plasterers get
their organization perfected there re-
mains only the sheet metal workers
to organize in order to have the
building trades section lined up sol

CENTRAL LABOR UNION.
Friday Nights Meeting Was interest
ina and Profitable.

Considering the fact that the meet
ing night had been changed there was
a good attendance at the meeting of
the Central Labor Union at the Tenn
pie last Friday night. 1t is very evil
dent that the Temple is going to be
the means of increasing the attend
andce and the interest of all the or
ganizations of the city.
Little aside from routine business
was transacted. The chief thing con-
sidered was how to secure a better
affiliation. 1t is believed that the plan
mapped out will be effective.
The committee visiting the grocers
and butchers reported, and the com
mittee on the Traction company mat
ter reported progress and asked for
further time. Two new members were
added to this committee.
After the adjournment of the meet
ing the delegates were the guests OF
the Bricklayers and enjoyed the re

tween Chicago and San Francisco, and
for time it fiourished But recently
the factory was forced to close down,
and as a result the employees had to
seek elsewhere for employment. This
forced the local to disband, and the
charter has been returned Before dis
banding the local presented the ten
shares of Labor Temple stock owned
by it to the association.
Lincoln unionists were proud of the
Gloveworkers' Union, and they will
regret it's dissolution, although pray
ing for speedy return of conditions
that will enable the union to re-organ-
ize. But the fact of the matter is
that Lincoln unionists are largely to
blame. The demand for labeled gloves
was not what it should have been, and
the factory did not receive the home
support that it was entitled to receive.
That's the whole story. A lot of men
who claim to be Lincoln boosters
failed TO make good on the glove busi-
ness and persisted in buying gloves

The whole milk calves consumed SO

butterfat is equivalent to l22 pounds

Which means that 2 pounds of grain

Abortion in Cows.

Contagious abortion in COWS is di-
vided into two classes, namely: acute
and chronic. Cows may lose from
one to three calves when afflicted
with the acute form of abortion while
on the other hand a COW may be
afflicted with the chronic form of
abortion and carry her calf full time
and still be as badly infected with the
germs of contagious abortion as one
that is losing her calves year after
year.
The greatest damage brought about
by COWS afflicted with the chronic
form of abortion is the shortage of
milk, the loss being estimated from
twelve to twenty-five dollars per head
per annum in the case Of the ordinary
dairy COW. A COW afflicted with the
chronic form of abortion, even if she
carries her calf full time and this calf
be taken from the herd and placed in
perfectly healthy herd miles away
may infect the healthy herd, carrying
the germs of abortion in its manure.
Ii it be a heifer calf and she is kept
in the herd until she is old enough to
breed, it she has not already infected
bred infect the herd bull and the herd
bull may in turn infect the entire
herd. In this way contagious abortion
is often introduced into perfectly
healthy herds and it is for this reason
that so many heifers abort, having
perhaps carried the germ from the
time of birth.
1t is exceedingly important to give
all COWS special care and attention at
the time Of calving and especia lily
heifers. If a heifer should be so I'M
fortunate as to contract contagious
abortion and abort, it oftentimes
ruins her as a profit producer for
years to come, owing to the fact that
it lowers her vitality enabling her to
contract other diseases.
Ofentimes bull calves are bought
out of infected herds when they are
too young to breed and placed into
perfectly healthy herds. When these
calves become old enough to breed
and they are bred to the COWS and
heifers, they are apt to introduce con-
taigous abortion, showing that the
germ laid dormant in the bull calf
from the time it was born.
