It is worth while knowing
that oats are worth approx
mately 33 cents per bushel, and
corn approximately 63 cents
per bushel for feed, when bran
is worth 500 per ton. 1t often
pays to sell oats and buy either
bran or corn.
The consolidation Of schools
is a pertinent question to dis
cuss and understand in yorr
community. Its successful in
auguration means better school
facilities for the boys and girls,
better roads, and general up
lift to the community.
While getting corn for the
hogs some night, after hard
days work, remember that

Every time we see a straw

LABOR NOTES

During the season just ending
Louisiana farmers have spent ST.
100000 for $1,000 tons of CONNER
cial fertilizer.
The general lockout in the build
ings trades recently ordered by the
Building Trades Employers Associa.
ton is the first that has occurred in
years in New York.
Southern as we'll as western rail
roads are meeting with demands for
better pay and conditions from their
employees. The firemen of the
Georgia & Florida system have gone
on strike in obedience to the order of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men because the system refused an
advance in wages.
The case of Mcnamara is schedul-
ed for hearing in Los Angeles next
week, and labor leaders are lament
ing the fact that industrial conditions
throughout the country are so dis
turbed that the space given to them
by the newspapers will necessarily
limit space for the Mcnamara trial,
Back to the Farm" and "On to
California" are the slogans of thous-
ands OF people throughout the United
States, Californians claim. No better
proof of this fact is needed, it is
claimed than the demand for ten

state. During the past month il Is
claimed that one road alone sold over
$4,000 tickets to California.
The Rev. G. Sylvester Horn, the
first NonConformist preacher to be
elected to the English Parliament is
now visiting theU nited States. He
says that labor will end in war and
asserts that there never will be war
between England and Germany be-
cause recently sixtf thousand mork-
men in Berlin pledged temselves new
er to lift hand against England.
A short time after delegation OF
German WOrkingmen visited England.
The English took pledge that they
would never war against Germany.
At the annual meeting of the
trades union congress, just ended,
554 delegates were in attendance,
representing 1,667,OO0 members. One
Of the principal propositions consid-
cred was the fusion Of the various
organizations into one grand nation
al federation to be called the Labor
Congress, with the object of further
ing the solidity of labor and more
speedily introducing improvements in
the labor world.
AS in England and other countries
the problem of housing the working
classes is deeply engaging the atten-
ton of the Germans. The ideal Is to
secure fresh air, plenty of light, the
privacy which the householder natur-
ally desires, and above all a strip OF
garden, however, small, where his
children can play in the open air and
he himself can enjoy occupation or
repose in his leisure hours. In
many Germain cities the problem
has been largely solved, and Dresden,
Strasburg, Nuremberg, Carlsruhe,
Essen and other owns alrteady have
garden settlements where thousands
of working families live happily and
in comfort. The solution is not so
easy in Berlin owing to the ever ris-
| ing values in land.

for the killing of her husband, by jury

to return verdict of guilty II they found
the defendant possessed OF the ability to

Other grounds were that the court erred

testimony relating to the relations between
