UNIFORM CHILD LABOR LAWS.
The national movement to establish uni
formity i'm the child labor laws is one
which must commend itself to every
thinking person. However great the value
of the cause of the Improvement of hu-
manity of every isolated gain in bette-
laws against the abuses of child labor, 1t
is plain even to the superficial student OF
the child labor problem that concerted
action can accomplish much more. The
suggested regulations OF the uniform
child labor law now under consideration
by the Rhode Island senate would involve
the diminishing of the permitted number
of hours of labor a week, for children
under Is years of age, from IS to IS. and
this would apply also to girls under is.
Minors of the same respective age,
would be prohibited from working after
p. M, although now they may work until
p. m. Higher educational requirements
and much stronger provisions regarding
the use OF dangerous machines are also
notable features of the proposed legisis-
ton. 1t will be seen that none of tile
changes is extreme, although all of a
character to raise the standard of citizeA-
ship.-Providence Journal.
SNOW AND WINTER WHEAT.
The extent to which man is still subject
to the influence OF the elements is again
illustrated by the statement in the news
columns that the widespread snowfall
over the vast territory between the Great
Salt Lake, Utah, and the western slope OF
the Allegheny mountains and from the
Canadian border to Oklahoma assures the
best crop prospects known in the west
for several years. The farmers through
out all that great region prepared their
fields for winter wheat to such extent as
they considered practical When they
had done their part, there was nothing
left but to take the chances of the
son. Now has come the second heavy
snowfall of the winter. and this gives
them promise of good crop, other
things proving to be favorable also. II is
stated that the condition of the winter
wheat is rendered ideal. the wheat being

ern country being assured OF sufficient
water when the snow melts- Tt is good
newsstand yet, presumably the average
American housekeeper will know but lit

wheat will be determined by the worlds
needs and its ability to pay. and very
likely the price of flour will remain at
about the usual fgure.-Manchester
