worse off from the pure economic
point of view-than the blacks were
under slavery before the war.
The negro was property and repre-
| sented abont $1,000 in value-some-
times more, sometimes less. He was
property which his master owned.
Therefore the master, if he had any
sense, took good care of his human
chattel. The master was eager to
have the slave as long and in as good
condition as possible. When the slave
became sick or when he died the mas
ter lost money.
The case is entirely different with
the white workingman, the sO-called
free workingman. When the white
man is sick or when he dies the en-
ployer usually loses nothing.
And high tariff, or tariff for revenue
only, or free trade, like "the flowers
that bloom in the spling, have moth
ing to do with the case. Laughter.
The fact is that the capitalist, the
average employer today, is more con-
cerned about valuable horse, about a
fine dog, about a good automobile,
than be is about his employee or about
his employees family.
In most cases the employment is alb
solutely impersonal. The employer
does not know his employee by name,
or even by number This is invaria-
bly, the case with a stock company
where the shareholders are scattered
all over city, State, or all over the
country; sometimes over Europe.
Nor can any individual capitalist or
employer, no matter how charitably
inclined he may be. change anything
in these conditions. A business or
corporation that should try to run its
plant on charity basis would not last

| Before it was adopted there was
more oratory and another warm con-
test. j, T. RaulstOn moved that the
part instl uoting the delegation of Ma

out. Mr.. Kelly claimed that accord
ing to instructions he bad in his pos
session. delegates for Roosevelt would
be instructed for wrong convention
should this report be allowed to stand

took exception to this, and said that
either Mr. Kelly or his informant was
in error over this as it was intended
to instruct the delegates for the Con-
gressiOnal convention for Bird district
to be held in Chattanooga Monday,
which would send two delegates to the
national convention. Mr.. Kelly reas-
serted his position. Messrs Tate,
Raulston, Kelly and Harris ali ex-
pressed their ideas, sometimes very
dramatically. s. B. Raulston finally
made peace address, which ended in
cries for "Vote. Aye and nay vote

IOWA WINTER FEED METHOD
With Range of Rye, Daily Feed OF
Cabbage and Warm Mash Hons
Should Be- In Fine Condition.

An Iowa poultryman advises this
method for keeping cabbage as a win.
ter feed for fowls: AS soon as severe
freezing threatens, the cabbage should
be pulled up and stored away. We
adopt the simple method OF burying
them in the ground. usually right
where they stood. The finest heads
are reserved for the table and put to
themselves and all the remainder or
every degree buried down for the poul-
try. Covering them is quickly done
by throwing out trench with the
pillow that will admit three heads side
by side; then another layer OF two
heads wide is placed on top OF these
with roots turned up in every case.
Some straw or grass is then thrown
over them and on top of this is thin
layer OF earth. OF slope to shed on
the rain. Later on a heavier covering
OF earth may be added. Cabbage thus
treated will continue to grow more
tender, crisp and sweet and far ex-

feed of cabbage and a warm mash in

PORTABLE STOCK FEED RACK
Found of Great Convenience for Use
During Cold Months OF Fall and

. When 1t is desirble to feed stock
in the lot or yard. as is often the
case during the fall and early winter,
a portable feed rack may be made
similar to this shown In the accom-
panying illustration. and will be found
to save enough feed to pay for the
material and labor of making in a
very short time, says writer In the
Homestead. For framework pieces
of by lumber are best. while fence
boards six inches wide are the best
material for boarding. A space OF
about six inches should be left be-
tween each board, up the sides and
at the ends. This rack can be either

COMMON DISEASE AMONG PIGS
Thumps Is Caused by Overlooking and
Lack of ExercIse-Best Plan
Is to Prevent Disorder.
CBy W. H. UNDERWOOD


Thumps is common disease
among pigs and Is caused by over
feeding and lack of exercise. The dis
ease is easily prevented by careful
feeding and seeing that the pigs get
plenty of exercise. Unless promptly
dealt with when pigs are first seized,
the disease is pretty certain to harm
them seriously. In quite a number OF
Instances they die. The most promi-
nent indication of thumps is a jerky
motion at the TANKS In connection
with their breathing The nerves OF
the diaphragm are affected, hence the
trouble is sometimes called spasms OF
the diaphragm. In some instances
there is wheeling. The affected ami
mails soon lose thrift, and even though
they recover they are more or less
stunted for good long time, subse-
quently. Medicines cannot do much OF
any good for pigs affected with
thumps. The best plan Is to prevent
the disorder, and this can be done by
FEEDING no more than the pigs will
eat up clean, and see that they get
exercise. In winter pigs are inclined
to remain in bed, and in such cases II
Is well to compel them to exercise by
chasing them about with switch.
