workers In the towns main industry.
The button industry has been largely
unorganized and unstandardised. NC
one knows the cost of making a gross
Of buttons. Defective buttons are
sold at reduced prices; but no one
seems to know whether at a loss or
profit to the manufactures.
The lack OF Standardization on the
business side was paralleled until re-
Gently, by the workers lack of organ
ization. "A button workers union was
started, but not until the autumn Of
1910-1911 did it have a members.
About that time the button industry
felt a depression. Wages were affect
ed; the question of al was not,
however, the primary cause of dissat-
~isfaction. The workers felt that they
were not getting a square deal in the
weighing and counting Of buttons. So
long as they felt this way, they were
dissatisfied and suspicious. 1t was
not a question of wages, but of justice.
1t is to soon to forecast the final
outcome of the struggle. The manu-
facturers may persist in their opposi-
ton to the union. Could any situation
show greater need for men to try the
golden rule? Why not try the golden
rule in Muscatine?

Carolyn van Blarconl, of the New York
committee on blindness, in The Sur
vey, is responsible for a sarge pro-
portion OF the instances of unneces-
sary blindness and for death and men
tai and physical degeneracy of chill
s9ren as well as Of much unnecessary
yeath and invalidism of mothers as
we'll.
$50 far as we are able to learn, the
United States OF America is the only
civilized country in the world in which
the life and health and future we'll
being Of mothers and infants are not
~safeguarded SO far as possible through
the training and control Of mid-wives.
In England, whore eleven years ago
the midwifery situation was strong
ly analogous to ours at the present
time, the problem was faced and met
through the establishment of the CEN
trail mid-wives' board by an act of
parliament in 1902.
while it is not possible to reduce
the service England has received from
trained midwifery to concrete terms,
it is significant that during the last
nine years. since the enactment of the
midwives act, the percentage of deaths
among infants has dropped from Isl
to 1000 during 1901, to 106 per 1000 in
1910. Although other causes have
contributed, it is believed by English
workers that the midwives act must
be reckoned with as one factor in this
decline"

no MAXI A FLYLEss cITY.

Cleveland Leader: Cleveland is to
be classed and catalogued as a hyless
town. In the campaign -inaugurated
for the determination Of the fly four
steps are outlined:
Ffrst-To educate the people as to
the deadly nature Of the fly.
Second-To kill off all winter flies
those hidden about the houses, waiting
their season of forage.
Third-To do away with all breed
ing places for flies.
Fourth-To trap all flies that hap
pen to escape.
AS the first step addresses on the
subject are being made before the "a
rious Women's clubs ana in the schools
Of the city. Circulars and booklets
will be distributed among the children
of the schools, to be carried by them to
their homes; posters and Illustrated
bulletins will be placed in the schools,
in the street cars and other public
places. carrying the sermon Of the fly
reform.
The determination of the winter fly
is a problem for the individual house
keeper. Don't let one fly escape you.
Hunt for them and kill them, for the
winter fly is the most dangerous of the
race. The winter fly is the mother of
all next summers terrible throng.
To do away with the fly breeding
places is merely a matter Of cleanli-
ness, for the fly is a scavenger, a lover
of filth and an habitual follower after
all that is unclean and unwholesome.
Clean house, garden and yards, clean
streets and alleyways discourage the
fly in it's breeding proclivities, and
therefore the doctrine OF cleanliness is
to be preached by the anti-hy cru
saders, along with the ermon on the
deadly character of the insect.
And carrying out the fourth step all
the house furnishing stores in the
city will be asked to carry in stock
and push the sale of fly traps, mar
velous little wire screen houses to be
baited with milk, wherein a fly once
entrapped is doomed. With the cam
paign of education will be given COM
fly trap. which may be placed on
porches or window sills, or garbage
pails-anywhere that flies are liable to
congregate, but always on the outside
of the house-always outside. Catch
the fly outside the house before it has
a chance to come in and spread its
poison and disease.
This city is to be divided into dis
tricts and each district divided again
into clans and clubs, and from each
center, small or large, branches will
reach out, graphing with the subject
in whatever way seems best adapted
to that individual section.
Death to the fly is to be the battle
cry. 1t is to be a fight Of man against
his enemy the fly and of the ny
against man
