SOME FEATURES
 OF RECIPROCITY.

There are some curious features of the Canadian reciprocity agree ment. These show how many sec tions of the country are affected by what, on the surface, would seem un- important matters. These matters, however, were not unimportant to the state department negotiators who, under the instructions of the president, were looking after the in terests of all parts of the country.
 There is. for instance, the matter of geese. On Prince Edwards Is land a good many geese are raised, but they are thin geese, a goose that is not fat is no goose at all. Some trial shipments showed that the geese could be fattened in the Unit cd States, where they supplied the Boston and New York markets. The duty. however. was some obstacle to fattening geese on this side of the line, so the negotiations obviated it by making poultry free-and geese arc rouliry.
 When cranberries were under dis cussion. the first thought was that

 In the Pocomoke district of Mary land very fine cantaloupes are raised There would be a very good market in Canada for these canta- leupes, but the duty is too higa. The tsr.ff Tata, in fact. IS the same lon caataloupes as on watermeIons lThe Maryland cantaloupe raisers wrote to the State Department to sec jif something could not be done. since they figured that one watermelon was equal to about twenty canta- loupes. yet one cantaloupe had 60 lpay as much duty as watermelon. The reciprocity commissioners solved lthe problem by getting all fresh fruits made free. Then it developed that not only the Maryland canta- loupes but number of other states have been awaiting a chance to get into the Canadian market. It was Ialso found that with the duty taken off the people who raised water melons from Georgia clear up to the boundary line. are expecting to do a big business.
 They raise good many peanuts in Virginia, North Carolina and Ten nessee. The reciprocity commission lers surprised the growers in those states by getting the duties reduced The Canadians are fond of peanuts.

The Canadians obliged the United States by reducing the duty in the agree !ment- Then it appeared that a good many more apple trees and cherry trees will so into Canada, if the Iagreement becomes effective. than before.

STRIKE IN COAL
FIELDS POSSIBLE
Organizers Active among Min
ers in Pennsylvania.
OPERATORS PREPARE FOR IT
Present Contract Expires March 81
and Same Demands that Brought
on Last Strike May
Be Reiterated.

New York, Nov 15.-Because of the
activity of organizers for the United
Mine Workers in the anthracite coal
fields Of Pennsylvania the big opera
tors are beginning to regard another
strike as a possibility.
Many are therefore advising large
users Of coal to lay in a supply for use
after March 81, when the present con,
tract with the union expires.
Though no shortage in the supply is
anticipated, unless indications of a
strike become more alarming, some Of
the big operators have already de.
clined to sell coal to other than their
regular customers.
The fact that the United Mine Work.
ers' contract with the operators ex-
pires in a presidential year is a factor
in the situation. A movement is said
to have started in the anthracite fields
to get the men together on demands
for increased pay, an eight hour day
and check off and recognition of the
union
These are practically the demands
that led to the last anthracite strike
and will be opposed by the operators
Just what action the movement among
the workers may lead to will not be
known until the miners convention is
held in January.
