SCIENCE IN BUSINESS.
The Way the Task and Bonus System
Operates IN Factory.

Operates IN a Factory.
The task and bonus system was in
trodueed by me In the Bethlehem Steel
works In 1901 as a means of alfording
substantial justice 70. the employee,
while requiring him TO conform to the
best interests of his employer. says a
writer in the Engineering Magazine.
The employee was not told In a gen
eral way ITO do better" but had a,
definite standard set for him and was
shown how to reach that standard, for
which he was awarded compensation
In addition to his usual days pay.
The system may be described in p
general way as follows A card il
made out showing in detail the best
method we can devise of performing
each Of the elementary operations on
any piece of work. specifying the
time needed for each Of these opera
tons as determined by experiments.
The sum of these times Is the total
( time needed to complete the piece OF
work. If man follows his Snstruc'
lions and ncconplishes all the work
laid out for him as constituting his
proper task for the day he is paid a
definite bonus in addition to his day
rate which he always gets. If, how
ever, at the end of the day he has
failed to Accomplished the work laid
out he does not get his bonus, but
simply his day rate. AS the time for
each detail operation Is stated on the
instruction card, the workman can con
tiuually see whether he Is earning
bonus or not. If he finds any opera
ton which he cannot do in the time
set he must at once report to his
foreman, who must show him how tt
do # or report to the man who made
out the instruction card, If the latter
| has made an error he must make out
new Instruction card, explaining thu
proper method Of working and allow
ing the proper time. If, however. thu
instructor contends that the work car
| be done In the time set he must show
| the workman how to do it.

H&s opposition to that legislation Is
well known. He has a right to his

those views before the house or

This waterway legislation should be

evil which 1t was hoped would be

a denial of constitutional rights to tht

Odd word suruivals.

Far away back in the days when the
English language was in its infancy
there were poets who wrote Of the
blossoms on the trees in the spring.
They didn't write blossom" however,
but used the word blow and made
itfrhyme with snow and flow When
they wished to sing of the beautiful
mass Of apple or hawthorn flowers
they called it the "blowth." This
word is found in the dictionaries,
which assert that 1t is obsolete. but it
is very much alive In Rockingham
county, N H.. and York county sJNIe.
The orchardist thereabout speaks Of a
''full blowth" or eight blowth" on his
trees in May and predicts good or
