for more than year, even though It
should not be willing to 60 to extremes,
might accomplish something for the bet
torment of conditions on sea. Certainly,
the pay Of mates upon all ships, includ-
ing the big transatlantic liners, is small.
And the generous earnings of German
transatlantic captains fill with envy the
much less we'll paid captains Of British
ships. The proposed union promises to
insist upon better provision for safety
for all on board than is now generally
made. Here it will have the sympathy
of the public.

WHERE THE STRUGGLE is BIT
TEREST.


Commissioner Neill's report upon the
Lawrence strike presents picture OF
life that Is a cruel struggle for bare SUBJ
sistence The full time earnings OF more
than seven thousand woollen mill EN-
ployes are found to be less than 81 a
week. "The normal family Of FIVE, I'M
less the father is employed In one or
"the more gainful occupations" writes
Mr.. Neill, "is compelled by necessity to
supply two wage earners In order to
obtain the necessities Of life. II the
father has Lot one child old enough to
work 1t becomes necessary for the wife
ito enter the mill to supplement the
earnings Of the husband In order to
maintain the family" When the chill
dren are young and the mother works
the parents sometimes see them only for
one day a week, since they are sent away
to the country to be cared for If they
are not sent to the country they are put
in the care of neighbors while the
mother is in the mill, one or two dollars
week being paid to the women who
look after the workers children In ad-
dition to their own.
1t is no wonder that slight cut In the
wages Of people living like these, Just out
of the reach Of starvation, caused a bit
ter and angry contest Industrial con-
ditions such as these are the danger
spots Of society to-day. When anything
happens to make the struggle for exist
ence harder among such workers revo-
lutionary agitators like the Industrial
Workers Of the World receive a ready

lected the duty Of revising the measures
and sending them back to the Com
mons for more thorough construction
IN this way they have divided RESPONSE
bility with the Radicals for the insur-
ance act against which the country is in
revolt. What will they do with 1t If
they return to power? They cannot re-
peal 1t without revealing their hostility
to social reform. and they cannot allow
It to stand without dividing with the
discredited Liberal government the I'M
popularity Of the measure. Do what
they will, they cannot hope either by
Juggling with the tariff or by amending
the worst sections Of the insurance act
to provide a system Of national and So
cial development which will satisfy the
new trade unionists.
There will be. moreover, the urgent
necessity for protecting the country
against the renewal Of syndicalist move

government has exhausted the resources

to diseases. Of the dairy breeds they
are the least. susceptible to tuber-
culosis.
The Holstein being not so small or
bony as the other dairy breeds, is the
nearest approach to the dual-purpose
cow. They will not bring as high
prices for beef as the beef breeds,
bat they will bring higher prices for
beef and veal than other dairy breed.
They are of large size, hardy, and
not dainty feeders. They are regular
breeders, mild and tractabIe. They
give larger proportion of milk and
butter to the amount of feed consumed
than any other breed of dairy cattle.
Wherever they have been introduced
the Holsteins have rapidly surpassed
all other dairy. breeds. They are not
rich mems playthings, but the COW
for the practical farmer who wants to
get the most profit out of dairying.
It would thus appear that our farmers
have chosen wisely. Their spirit is
to be commended. The introduction
of dairying on larger scale will bring
with it the silo, a more diversified
system of crops, a restoration of soil
fertility that is sure to increase land
values here, and materially add to our
annual sales from live stock.

A Simple Get. rioh. quick Scheme.


Take 100000 cats and get rich
quick. This is the advice Of the Liberte
OF Paris to its readers. The prescrip.
ton is quite simple. A million cats
win supply you with 12,0oo; 600 kittens
a year. The skins are worth little
over 2S cents each, so there you have
a daily gross revenue of about $4,000.
To skin the cats you will have to en-.
ploy 100 men. who will charge you So
per fifty cats. Your net revenue will
thus be reduced to about $4,000 a day.
It should cost you nothing to feed your
cats. Start rattery. Rats breed four
times as fast as cats, so the cats can
have daily diet Of four rats apiece,
which is ample. To feed the rats is
perfectly simple. Give them the skin
ned cats. One cat will be ample for
four rats. The scheme works out sim
ply and automatically. The cats eat
the rats, the rats eat the cats, and you
have the skins.

the strait Of Sunda and thence back
again for like period without any
perceptible rise and fall during those
times.
Then there is the equatorial current
that flows into the Caribbean sea, the
ever flowing current to the eastward
around Cape Horn, the cold stream
flowing from the icy regions of the
north past Newfoundland and Nova
Scotia and along the American coast
to the extreme end of Florida, the
continual current running with a We
locity Of from four to FIVE knots an
hour through the strait of Gibraltar
into the Mediterranean sea, the swift
current running across the rocks and
shoals off the end of Billion island,
which apparently starts from nowhere
and ends somewhere in the vicinity of
the same place, and the current which,
starting halfway up the China sea,
runs from two to three knots an hour
to the northeast and finally ends alb
ruptly off the north end of Luzon.

The annual Fair was held at Nor

1911. The paid attendance was larg-

to the slight advance in admission
charges, the receipts were larger than
ever before.
In the way of permanent improve
ments, we this year planted and cared
for a large number of trees, including
evergreens, at a cost of substantially
$15O.OO. 1t is the hope and belief of
the officers that this investment will
prove to be the best possible at this

FRENCH AND GERMAN CoL0RS
Supposed Origin of the Trieeler and
the Teuton FLAG,

the Teuton Flag.
For Eve centuries black and white
have been the Hohenzollern colors, and
the first verse of the German war song,
"Ich bin Elm Preusse," is:
/ am Prussian! Know yeDlot my ban
ner?
Before me floats my flag of black and
white
My fathers died for freedom; twas their
manner
So say these colors floating in your
sight.
The mercantile marine tricolor of
black, white and red is emblematic Of
the joining of the Hohenzollern black
and white with the red and white,
which was the ensign of the Hanseatic
league. This flag came into being
when the North German Confederacy
was established, Nov. 25, 1857. at the
close of the Austro- Prussian war. The
red and white represent the CONNER
cial prosperity Of the nation, while the
black and white symbolic the strong
arm Of the state prepared to protest
and foster it.

ed so much change in the standards
and national ensigns Of a country as In
France. The orifamme and the chape
de st. Martin were succeeded at the
end Of the sixteenth century, when
Henry I'LL, the last Of the house Of
Valois, came to the throne, by the
white standard powdered feur-de-lis.
That in turn gave place to the famous
tricolor which was introduced at the
time Of the revolution, but the origin
Of that flag and its colors is disputed
question. Some maintain that the In
tention was to combine in the flag the
blue of the chape de St Martin, the
red Of the orifamme and the white flag
Of the Bourbons. By others the cOlOrs
are said to be those Of the city of Paris.
Yet again other authorities assert that
the flag is copied from the shield Of
the Orleans family as it appeared after
