NOT UNION CONCERN

Washington, D. c., Oct. g. The
Whitehead-Hoag Company, manu-
facturers of badges, buttons, and
other advertising novelties, is not
a union concern. There are en-
ployed very small number of I'M
ion men in the factory, but the
great body of the employees do not
belong to any union. Efforts have
been made many times to union
ize this concern, but without avail.
Labor papers and other publica-
lions are printing flattering no
tees to the effect that the firm
mentioned is strictly union and
that it has the members of TWEEN
ty different organizations in it's
employ, and, further, that this COM
pany operates union shop. In
the interest of truth and justice it
is hereby stated that this com
pany is not recognized as union
concern, for the very good reason
that the great majority of it's en-
ployes are not members of amy
accredited union. There are firms
manufacturing this classsof goods
that employ only union men and
women. A list of these union
badge, button and novelty manu-
facturers will be furnished upon
application to the headquarters of
the American Federation of Labor.

BUSINESS AGENTS RIGHTS

New York, Oct S.-supreme Court
Justice Crane, of Brooklyn, has denied
the motion of contractor for an or
der adjudging business. agent of the
United Brotherhood of Carpenter in
contempt for notifying members OF
that organization that they should
stop work for him on building. The
business agent was enjoined last
spring from s.sinjuring the contractors
business or Interfering with any OF
his work" The contractor claimed
that the business agents action was
a violation of the injunction. In
denying the motion Justice Crane
said: '"Fhe courts cannot compel men
to work, and they can leave for any
reason they see fit, or without reason,
and if it be that the carpenters in
this case desire to comply with the
rules and regulations of their Brother
hood, there is no law that can pre-
vent them or prevent the business
agent from informing them that they
were using non-union material. The
men themselves state that they left
the work voluntarily as soon as they
knew the material was non-union."

Boston, Mass, Oct. st is an
nounced by the officers of the Boston
power house shop and mechanical
branch of the street Garments union
that new schedule for shorter hours
for the power-house and shop will go
into effect September %. A commit

with the Boston Elevated Railroad Off
Gals and shorter week was agreed
upon. The men will have a nine-hour
day the first five working days of the
week, and will work from Z to 11:45

that the Elevated is preparing to put

duced tangible and continuous results.

Gals Of the, Postoffice Department are
inclined to think that this is serious
infringement on the freedom of the
press, and they are also dubious about
the right of Congress to interfere with
copies of newspapers which do not
enter the mails at all, as in the case
Of the big city dailies. There are
many angles of the law which, if
strictly enforced, would mack it al
most impossible for publications to
continue. No doubt this subject will
be taken up at the next session OF
Congress and the defects remedied.

Press1nen Strike


Portland, Ore, Oct. 3.-Recently
the pressmen and feeders in the job
offices in this city presented a new
scale to the employers providing for
an increase Of SO cents per day for
the pressmen and 25 cents per day for
the feeders. The officials of the press
men attempted to secure a confer
ence with the employers, but failed
and the pressmen and feeders went
on strik, Thirteen of the shops are
now paying the new scale, while five
companies are standing out against it.
The TypOthetae is seeking to estab--
fish the open shop, and the allied
printing trades are considerably con-
cerned over the present outlook: In
two of the strike-bound shops the
printers have also been locked out
From present indications it appears
that in the five shops mentioned all
of the allied printing trades may
eventually be involved. ~

FEED FOR VIGOROUS GROWTH
Healthy shoats Need Bone and Meat
Meal Together With Freshly
Burned Wood Ashes.

Bone and meat meal, and dry, clean,
freshly burnt ashes from hardwood
are necessary for vigorous. healthy
growth In little pigs. One tablespoons
full of bone meal and two spoonfuls
of meat meal should be given at each
feed. Ashes help digestion. cleans the
stomach and Is useful In other ways.
The ashes should be freshly burnt,
well sifted and dry. Burnt corn cobs
may be given instead Of ashes. No
one feed, however good it may be,
should be constantly fed. The hog is
q grass animal and will do well on
grass and clover pasture In summer,
and fine cut clover hay, we'll scalded
and mixed with wheat bran, wheat
middlings and small quantity of
aaxseed meal during the winter feed
ing months. Have the pens clean and
dry. Give a warm bed of leaves.
Have large yard or small grass pas.
ture for the hogs to exercise in dur
ing the winter. Hogs can stand cold,
dry weather when taking exercise, but
they must have dry, warm. well-bedd-
ed pens to sleep in. Wet bedding and
frozen slop are certain to produce dis.
ease.

pensable on account Of the fact that
in the ordinary pen there are from
six to - females to one male. II trap
nests are used, and there are as many
as there are females in the pen, it is
possible to distinguish each hens
eggs, while if the trap nests are not
used, this is impossible.
The use of trap nests goes far to
prevent the hens forming the habit of
egg-eating. They are likely to form
this habit If kept in limited quarters.
If so kept, they are probably not given
the very best food, and probably not
enough of it, especially animal food.
The accompanying drawings of a
bank Of trap nests are sef-explana-
tory. The nests are built without any
top or bottom. The hen enters through
the back of the nest, brushing under
the hanging wire, which releases the
door. She then passes on to the nest
compartment toward the front end.
To inspect the nest, and to remove
the hen, ascertain her number, and Sc
cure the eggs, the front door Is SIM
ply unbuttoned, and let down. 1t will
be noticed that the two doors are fas-
tened together with cord, SO that
when the front door is let down, the
trap is automatically set again. The
hen will find 1t difficult to leave
through the back door at this time, as
the hanging wire permits her to go
one way only. These are so simple
that in making them in almost any
quantity, the material should not cost
over Is cents, at most, per trap nest.
