Women Farm Laborers.

One of the early morning sights in
Boston is the small army of women
farm laborers starting out for their
days work on the truck farms or gar
dens in the suburbs. They start early,
they return late, but their season is
short
The sight of women working in the
fields has come to be so common in
the garden farming districts as to at
tract no special attention. Almost
all of these women are Italians. the
very picture Of health, short and
sturdy. straight backed and straight
limbed, and they can handle hoe or
even fork or spade with as much
dexterity and effectiveness as the av-
erage man.
But when it comes to the wedding.
these women seem TO be in class all
by themselves Ii is a picturesque
sight to watch at a distance a group
of these weeders at work. One thing
the Italian won't do She won't lay
aside her bright colored finery. 1t
seems as necessary TO her happiness
when she Is on her knees wedding on
ions as breaking her back crushing
potato bugs as it is when she is Cos
siping on her house stoop or celebrat
ing holiday Boston Globe.

BABYS HAIR ALL CAME OUT

WHEN my first baby was six
months old he broke out on his head
with little bumps. They would dry
up and leave a scale. Then it would
break out again and ii spread all over

his head was scaly all over. Then his
face broke out all over in red bumps
and it kept spreading until it was on
his hands and arms. bought several
boxes of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him. but he got worse all the time he
had it about six months when friend
told me about Cuticura. / sent and

cake of Cuticura Soap and box OF

He began to take long maps and to
stop scratching his head. After taking
two bottles OF Resolvent, two boxes of
Ointment and three cakes of Soap he
was sound and well, and never had
any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. / don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuticura.
Il have bought Cuticura Ointment

DIFFICULT HABIT TO REMEDY
Only Way to Stop Calves of Sucking
Each Others Ears Is to Keep
Them Separated.
CRy r. G. wEATHERsToNEA

(By r. G.. WEATHERSTONE.)
One of the most difficult habits to
overcome in bunch of young calves
is that of ear sucking When we feed
calves milk from pail they eat SO
rapidly that they fail to relieve the
mouth of the saliva which naturally
mixes with it's mothers milk while it
is sucking
In order to relieve their mouths of
this secretion which their organs of
digestion demand they will seek some
thing to suck which will relieve their
mouths of the saliva which has been
retained to large extent and their
favorite object is the ear of the cali
next to them.
Unless this is prevented the. calf is
likely to grow up with the habit of
sucking itself when it comes to be a
milk-producer, or sucking the other
cows in the herd.
The only way to prevent this vicious
habit is to tie each calf by itself until
digestive organ have developed suf-
ficiently to enable it to digest grain
food, such as ground oats and wheat
bran.
Then they win eat dry bran and
ground oats and in that way relieve
their mouths of this saliva. After
this they may be turned together and
there is little danger of their acquiring
the habit

SERVICE" is SOUGHT

the employer ought 70 pay something
IN addition to wages, and expresses the
belief that the corporation which
does recognize and discharge the OBJ
legation laid upon it by long and faith
ful service will richly realize on the
investment
That theory is not new. Many pri-
vate employer has recognized it by the
care of his employees and their fam
llies through sickness, and has reap
cd his reward in the conscientiousness
OF the personal devotion of his men as
wen as in the quality of the service
rendered. But much of the antagon-
ism toward corporations has been due
to the feeling that they were squeez-
ing the Juice of human kindness out of
the relationship between employer and
employee; that the WORKOUT employee
was liable to be thrown out on the
scrap heap along with the WORKOUT
machine which he had tended. Here
is a series Of related CORPORATIONS pro-
posing to incorporate human kindness
as part of their system and to
make its rewards automatically with
out regard to the attitude Of any par

ODD Method Of FeIIlna smokestacks.

Odd Method of Telling Smokestacks.
A Manchester (England) man is
is credited with the newest method
in quick, effective telling of tall
smckestacks built of masonry. He be-
gins with removing foundation bricks
or stones to a height of five or six
feet, substituting an underpinning of
wood, dry and inflammable. In this
way about two-thirds of the circum-
ference of the stack is replaced with
wood
From his experience the M&nches-
ter man discovers that when crack
in the remaining one-third circumfer-
ence begins to appear, 1t is time to
start the fire in the dry wood under
pinning. Under the weakening eff
feet of the flames, the chimney sudden
ly topples and with such suddenness
that it is snapped into several sections,
each telescoping another section, to
the bottom length, whifh is shortened
from one-third to che-fourth of the
stacks original height.
The other day such a stack was
felled which had stood almost $50 feet
above ground, falling in telescoped sec
tons of onefourth its height More
than 200 such chimneys have been
thrown down by the Manchester meth
cd and without mishap.

COMPARISON OF LABOR CONDI
TONS, PAST AND PRESENT.
at Sunrise and Continued Until
O'Clock at Night.

Workmen fall to realize the tTemen-
dous Improvement in industrial condi-
lions characterizing the last half cen
fury. So marked has been the eyolu-
ton that 1t might almost be called a
revolution. In the Office of the Browne
& Sharpe Manufacturing company OF
Providence, r. L., hangs a copy of the
schedule of the hours of labor employ
ed there In 1S47-48. Except during
May, June and July. when it began at
4:55, work began at sunrise. Work
men had their breakfast before be-
ginning the days work only in the
months of November, December, Jan
uary and February. During the rest
of the year breakfast was served any
where from $50 to 7:30, and 40 min
utes only were allowed for 1t. Seven
O'Clock was the average time for end
ing the days work. While there was
little artificial illumination, and that
inadequate, nevertheless during the
short days from November TO Febru-
airy, work was kept up till seven
o'clock. Sixty years ago the hours
of factory employment seemed to
to have been fashioned after those on
the farm. where conditions are so diff
ferent
With the old wood burning stoves,
which heated fiercely the area near
by. but sent little warmth to the re-
moter parts of the great rooms, with
small windows affording meager light,
except on the brightest days. and with
no ventilation. the sanitary conditions
so years ago fell far below those pre-
vailing in modern factory. At pres
ent, too. men receive g. much higher
wage for a much shorter period OF
work, but here 1t is hard to make an
equitable comparison, as the purchas-
Ing power Of money was different then
from what it is now. The wants OF the
working man were far simpler 90
years ago than they are today. He
now lives upon higher plane In
every way and is able TO give his chill
dren a good education, thus giving
them start in life that makes Tor

TEACHING GERMAN MECHANICS

1t is clear that IL the Americans

This can no longer be done by the

rience, supplemented by industrial or

signed when the path Of success was
so plain and open for all young men
as 1t is today, says the Christian Reg

for him. Whatever choice he makes
and whatever ideal of success he

PRACTICAL END TO FRICTION
Scheme Devised by officials Of Electric
Light Companies Bound to Have
Far-Reaching Enthusiastically
Beneficial! to Employer
and Employee.

The report adopted by the conyen-
ton of the National Electric Light as
ISOLATION inc Manhattan is the most
thorough-going and far-reaching effort
yet made by any large body of en-
ployers in this country to reduce fric-
ton with employees and to inspire the
devoted service which springs from
good feeling.
Profit sharing with employees is an
old story here; pension funds to which
employees contribute are familiar,
both in public and private employ
ments. This proposal of the electric
companies goes further than either. 1t
includes profit sharing, pension fund
provided by the employing company
for the benefit of its men, the pay
ment of the entire cost of injuries by
accidents which are not due to the
gross carelessness of employees. with
full wages for disablement up to six
months and one-half wages thereafter;
and a company savings bank system
which should pay somewhat higher In
terest than the public savings banks
do.
That plan, which sounds like Utopia,
was devised by IL of the executive
officers of the largest electric compan-
les in the country, and if accepted by
the companies represented at the con-
vention, it will affect some 100000 men
and women employed by those com
panies. But perhaps more striking
than the extensive character of the
plan itself is the argument of the re
port upon which 1t was based. That
report draws a distinction between
labor and service. Labor is defined as
the performance of an assigned task
for which wages are paid, and the OBJ
legation ends with the payment But
service implies devotion to the in
terests CT the employer through a pc
riod of years, increased efficiency
through that devotion. and continuity
of service, with lessening of soldier
ing, or an elimination of it altogether
For such service the report holds that

HOES on FORAGE.

The Missouri agricultural station
has just given out the results of an
experiment lasting three years, which
show large profits from feeding hogs
on forage crops. The average income
per acre from clover forage was S34.11,
from rape and oats s23.63, from corn
and COW peas $290S and from blue
grass $17.71.
The estimates are all made on the
basis of so cents bushel for the corn
fed and six cents pound for the pork
produced. The results are important
as indicating what may be accom-
plished when the hogs themselves do
all the harvesting. This bulletin.
which is numbered 95, was written by
Dean F. B. Mumford and G. A. Wilson
and can be had on request by writing
