They Shall Take and Hold.

They Shall Take and Hold.
(By Geo. Green.)
There is want in the homes of the
people,
And the children are crying icr
bread,
And the church sweeps the sky with
a steeple
That o'ershadows the graves of our
dead.
There's a wall in the wind at the
dawning,
There's a sound of sob in the sea; !;
There's an evir that shudders when
morning
Filings a mantle Of gold o'er the lea.
There is hate betwixt toiler and
toiler,
There is, malice and envy and strife;
Labor lengthens the rule Of the
spOiler
With the plunge of a fratrlcide's
knife.
But there's hope in the hearts of the
teachers,
Their gospel rings clear In the night,
Revolutions brave army of preachers
Who've learned histry's hard lesson
Alright.
And the wage slaves are waking
from slumber,
Where the long lands are washed by
the seas
And each day spring is swelling the
number
Who will fling their red flags to the
breeze.
And the war drums of labor are
throbbing
Their loud calls from the depths of
the years,
And they'll end the young children's
wild sobbing
And the sorrow of sad mothers
tears.
They shall take all the earth and Its
treasure,
They shall tear down the banners Of
wrong,
They shall hold all the wealth Ii
full measure,
They shall gladdep the world witt
their song.

When the city council meets next
Monday evening 1t will find itself
confronted with an ordinance having
for its object the reduction of gas
from $3.50 to $1.5O
Mayor Lachmund, in his annual
message, recommends that legislation
be taken to regulate the quality and
price of gas, and at the last meeting
the matter was referred to the light
committee. The committee is now
preparing an ordnance, which, II
passed, will bring about the above re-
duction.
Also to Regulate Telephones.
There will be presented at that
meeting also an ordinance imposing q
tax on telephone companies. The old
tax was 5000 per year. but it expired
the first Of the year-that is the con-
tract under which It was imposed
and the mayor also recommended that
action be taken along that line. The
ordinance committee is preparing this
ordinance, and, while 1t has not been
prepared, the ordinance when COM
pleted will impose a tax on each tele-
phone the company has in the city.

The Hot Bed on the Farm

By j. L. Stahl, Horticulturist,
Western Washington Experim ent
Station, Puyallup, Wash.
Now is the time of year when most
every one would relish fresh veg
etables. Stored cabbage and canned
peas will do if we can get no better,
but most any farmer or home gardener
can have fresh radishes and crisp new
lettuce with very little work.
HOW TO BUILD A HOT BED.
Select a sunny location with south
exposure and preferably with a build
ing or other windbreak on the north
side. Dig hole three feet wide, six
feet long and two feet deep, the
length of the hole extending north
and south. Set 2x4 inch plank in
each corner of the hole, having two
at the south end extending SIX inches
above the ground, and two at the
north end extending eighteen inches
above. Boards should be nailed to
each of the planks so as to form a
tight sloping frame over the hole,

If the room has concrete floor and
is kept we'll bedded it need not be
cleaned out more than twice year
and the manure will be kept in the
best possible condition.
In the second place, winter pastur-
ing is poor policy because of the in
jury done to the fields. The ground
is soft and many stools of grass are
tramped out and pulled up roots and
ALL thus lessening by so much the
next years yield. The vacant spaces
will be occupied by weeds or less
valuable grasses and the standard OF
the next season IS crop will be greatly
lowered. The roots of grasses must
begin growth in the spring-must
send up the first shoots from stored
up energy. The growth of the plant
is wholly dependent on this energy
until the green leaves are unfolded in
the sunlight. Late cropping of the
leaves in fall lessons the possibility
of this energy storing process and
must inevitably weaken the vitality of
the plant. What wonder is it if the
meadows and pastures run OUT" if
in addition to the fall pasturing, the
plants are prevented from restoring
their lost vitality by early spring
pasturing?
Pastures should not be cropped
continuously even in summer, but
should be allowed periods of I'M
molested.growth in which to develop
a greater leaf surface and thus pro-
vide stronger root system.
The physical injury to the soil by
tramping it when wet, especially if
the soil is heavy, is greater than most
farmers imagine. The soil loses it
granular structure-is puddled and
the fine PARTICLES run together and
the air is crowded out. When a soil
in such a condition dries out 1T be-
comes very hard and roots are unable
to thrive in it. When a soil is thus
puddled it requires some time and
careful handling to restore it to a
good physical condition. In the case
OF permanent pastures or meadows
this is not easily accomplished. The
condition OF the soil as well as the
succeeding crop would be greatly i'm
proved il the late autumn and winter
growth of grass we're left as a cover
crop to feItilize the soil and to pro-
tect the roots of the plants during
winter.
When we consider that the advant-
ages to be gained by winter pasturing
are more apparent than real and the
Disadvantages are so many, we wonder
that so many good. farmers practice

Winter Pasture

Few dairymen appear to place a
pasture. AS one travels over Western
Washington he sees almost every
where dairy herds out in the meadows
and other fields tramping around
picking at the short green grass.
This is poor policy, we believe, for
two reasons.
In the first place, the grass is short
aud not usually abundant and the
COWS get very little actual nourish-
ment. In majority of cases they
will require more feed to keep them
up to a given flow of milk than they
would if they we're properly housed
and given nothing during the day.
The only benefit to be derived from
perm lifting the COWS to roam over the
fields during the day is the exercise
they get. But exercise consumes
energy and all they get in excess of
their actual physical needs is direct
loss which must be made up by an
additional allowance of feed or it will
be taken from the milk supply.
The exposure to winds and rains
also robs the milk pail of large part
of it's share of the food products. 1t
is we'll known that cold draws heavily
on the energy value OF the food sup
ply. The body insists first and last
on being warm, and, if any energy
remain unused after this demand has
been met, 1t may be used, in the case
of the dairy COW, in the manufacture
of milk.
A limited amount of exercise and
an abundance of fresh air are neces-
sary to the health and comfort of the
dairy COW, so she should not be close
ly stabbed all the time. A number of
our most successful dairymen have
adopted the plan of stabling their
cows only while they are being milk
ed and are eating their concentrates
and allowing them to occupy large
room or covered yard the remainder
of the time. This room is supplied
with racks for feeding hay and other
roughage and a watering trough.
Here the COWS can get all the exercise
needed for good health and may lie
down and rest in d natural position.

eighteen inches high at the north end
and six inches at the south. Fresh
horse manure, which contains about
one third straw. should be we'll tramp
ed into the hole to depth OF twenty
inches. Care should be taken to pack
the manure we'll in the corners and
on the sides of the hole. Five or six
inches of rich garden soil is placed
on the manure but the bed should not
be seeded until after the manure has
heated. An old window sash makes
an excellent covering for the hot bed
and can either be fastened to the
frame with hinges or couple OF
wooden buttons. The glass sash
should be put on the frame as soon as
the bed is made and before the seeds
are planted, as it will aid in warming
the soil.
PLANTING.
The temperature in the bed will rise
until the soil is very warm and as
soon as it has dropped to about 80
degrees +. the seed can be planted.
The seed should be we'll covered with
soil but need not be planted as deep
as in the open field. AS soon as the
young seedlings are above ground the
glass sash should be raised for few
minutes every day to give the plants
fresh air.
During frosty nights a covering
should be thrown over the glass sash.
An old straw mattress or a couple OF
gunny sacks filled with straw make
excellent coverings.
