THE TREASURE OF PEGANS.

Pecan growing is bound to become

Ii is already so. The food value OF
these nuts is unusually high, the cost
of producing and marketing them is
Comparatively low, while the demand

conditions form the basis OF the per-
manent and profitable industry.
Mr. Alexander McRae, a successful
hofticulturist Of Alabama, contrib

(Ala.) News an interesting discussion
he uses particularly pungent illus
tralion. A quarter OF a large pecan
kernel, when lighted at the eud as If

though in a FIR pnrer quality and far

II, as some economists predict, a
food substitute for meat must be
found, because OF the steady increase
in population and the decrease
in the supply Of meat, the pecan, ii

is free of this curse, and want to see
it kept so. We thank Judge John

judice against corporations is large
ly attributable TO the alien ownership
that generally prevails. The stock
holders care nothing for the people
among whom their plants are To-
Gated, except what they can make
from them in the way OF dividends.
The result is that when the natives

WoMEN's LACK OF
UNION LABEL LOYALTY

Tobacco, mems clothes, shoes and
hats, familiar items on the expense ac-
pense account of every home-but the
only ones that have added any luster to
the loyalty of trade unionists during the
year, for in these commodities alone has
there been added demand for the union
label This, from the annual report OF
the Label department of the American
Federation of Labor. And it is far more
than a report, for it stands as an indict-
ment against the trade unionism of wom-
en-. In black and white it sets forth the
fact that women, the chief beneficiaries
in the union movement, are not doing
their share in the support of it.
1t means that in some lines organized
workers are backing up their union be-
liefs with their dollars and cents; that
men In their purchase of merchandise
are making every penny they hand over
the counter do two-fold service. Not
only must 1t supply their physical wants,
it must at the same time register pro
test against scab-made goods, and there
is no more effectual way of doing this
than through the demand of the union
label.
That this report does not show like
increase in the sale of label goods
through the purchases made by women,
proves that the husband and wife part
nerships existing in many trade union
homes does not rest on fair and square
basis.
Don't forget this, little. Woodworking
wife and mother. The day your man
took out his union card new obligation
was placed on you that makes 1t neces'
sary for you to do more than cook, wash
and mend in order to be his real help
mate That card gives you chance TO
help him in his work, too. 1t makes 1t
possible for you to raise his wages and
shorten his hours so that he may have
more time at home with you and the
children. Not only is this chance to help
him on the economic field an opportun-
ity, but duty, and failure to make good
in it means that he must carry double
load, so that instead of being the wing
to your husband that you should be, you
are more or less of a weight.
You are proud of him every time he
tells you to be sure to get him label
shirts. You are more than proud to tell
your friends that he is union from skin
out" Don't you think he would take
that same pride in you if you were as
loyal to the cause he stands for? Whal
must be his inner feelings every time he
sees the "Wooltex" trade mark on your
coat, when, time and again, he has con
tributed to the strike funds raised fol
the workers in that notoriously unfail
Cleveland firm.
Can't you see how necessary it is fol
YOU to extend your help outside the
home into the field of his work in ordei
to be a true wife and helper? 1t won
! take any extra time or work. All that if
asked of you is more loyalty to him.

ResHAPINe OUR ENVIRONMENT
By ]. G. SchwaIm,

In a quotation from the Worlds Work,
by Woodrow Wilson, there occurs this
passage: But we are coming now to
realize that life is so complicated-that
We are not dealing with the old condi-
tions, and that the law has to step in
and create conditions under which we
live-the conditions which will make it
more tolerable for us to live"
AS is well known among those who
are familiar with organized labor this
is the fundamental principle of the
unions Individual efforts to better the
condition of the people are of little con-
sequence. The way to get results is by
collective action. The government is
a union in no way different than the
labor union, except that its sphere of
activity is more extensive.
When President Wilson speaks OF
making it more tolerable for us to live
he touches the direct and only purpose
for which governments exist "The law, -
If it is right and Just. is for the safe.
guarding of the peoples welfare and
comfort This involves chiefly the pro
lection of the weak and propertyless
against the strong and the rich. To
refuse to SO regulate the conditions that
the means whereby life Is made posi-.
Bile and secure are within the easy reach
of all is evidence that the Law" is not
what 1t ought to be.
We have an endless array of law, and
the new measures fol the new time
are appearing by the hundreds. Slowly
the more tolerable conditions are com
ing, and it is only matter of time when
there will be no more destitute and neg
lected people in the civilized world. But
before this can take place a condition
must be provided that will take care OF
those who either through lack of intelli
gence, criminal inclinations or because
of an oversupply of 'hands" or business
depression cannot find employment. II
is so very easy, and it is almost uni
versal custom, for people to think that
all the weak-minded are in the asylums
and that all those who are not in
asylums. or hospitals are quite able to
compete on the same basis. But Just
as truly as we cannot expect the lame
man to compete with the trained and
well man. SO also should we make al.
1owance for those OF mental inferiority.

zenship of all countries who can and
will do good service under proper lead

SUFFRAGE TALK IN CANADA.

(F'rom Hamilton (Ontario) Labor News)
The editor of the Herald does not fear
placing his children in the hands OF
women teachers in the public schools to
educate them and train them for the fu-
ture, but fears If these same teachers
were given the right to vote they might
deteriorate and lose their refinement,
ETC., etc.
The Herald further produces the fol-
lowing "evidence" against votes for
women:
Senator Hecker, of Denver, recently
made this remarkable assertion in
public speech: Twenty women to one
man in Denver drink intoxicating liquor,
and they drink more than men, very
probably the statement is an exaggera-
ton. But even if 1t is, the conditions
which made such statement possible
must be pretty bad.

not be interested in reforms generally,

LEGISLATOR STRIKES.

Representative John ]. Keegan, of Ind
annapolis, Ind, who STRUCK" when his
forty-eight-hour bill for women workers
was amended to fifty-four hours. has
been flooded with letters and kilograms
of approval.
Keegan introduced bill to limit the
hours of labor of women to not more
than forty-eight in any week, or more
than nine in any day. When an amend
ment for not more than fifty-four hours
week and not more than ten day
was adopted, he sent his resignation to
the governor.
The day after Keegan struck the
house amended the bill to provide for
fifty hours a week, only two more than
he proposed. Keegan thinks that was a
pretty fair victory, as strikes go.
MY mother never saw the inside of a
laundry or a factory, and she is living at
80" he had told the house. MY wife
did work in those places. and she has
passed on"
There is criticism of Keegan's legisla-
tive suicide as anarchistic. but neverthe.
less he has made Indiana in the last few
weeks think more about the hours OF
work of future mothers than it has
thought for years.

ering will still leave a large majority
of the American people dependent on
haphazard natural conditions and not on
scientific or reshaped and regulated con-
ditions. A reduction of tariff or in
terest may induce squirt of prosperity
or it may create panic. 1t can not
give any security to any one. because
it does not directly affect any one.
What is needed therefore is some
thing that is personal and has the in
dividual security as its sole and undi.
vided purpose. When production is
carried on for profit any unfavorable in
cident may cause the loss of the means
of life to an unlimited number of faith.
full and worthy citizens. The Logical
thing to do is for the state to produce
not for profit, but for use. and especially
to insure domestic tranquility from an
unfailing income derived from useful
employment. This employment should
be provided not by bond money but by
the government issuing and exchanging
brand new bills for labor as it now ex.
changes a postage STAMP for little
wheel of copper, and again receive the
bill in exchange for goods or service
and then cancel or reissue it.

OPPOSING THE l. w. w.

The American Federation of Labor is
engaged in a fight to the finish with the
Industrial Workers of the World, and it
is no wonder, because the Federation
represents the best intelligence of organ
lied labor, while the Industrial Workers
declare that they are ready to burn, slay,
cheat, rob, commit any sort of crime, in
fact, in order to destroy the present form
of society and build a new one on its
ruins.
Naturally, the Federation is opposed
to that kind of program, and SO is the
rest of the world except the few that
are enlisted in that terrible organization
that wise men everywhere object to and
feel that it is a dangerous combination
of men more intent upon an evil than
upon good purpose, or, at least, pro-
foundly intent upon certain purpose
and ready to resort to any, even the
wickedest, means to compass it.-Iron

Lansing, Mich.-A committee of the

vestigating the Marquette prison IN
discussing the conditions which sur
round this penal institution, one mem
ber of the committee made this state
ment: Il was informed that the man
who has the overall contract takes the
goods from the prison and relabels them
with the union label. This is something
over which the state exercises no CON
troll From this statement it cannot be
determined what union label is used, but
it is in line with the story recently print
ed in the News letter from Missouri. In
the latter state a shoe manufacturing
firm has prison contract, and the shoes
are labeled Made in Chicago" The
trade unions in the various states are
fighting contract prison labor, and are
making considerable headway, but pirat-
ing of the union label is still continued
by some manufacturers who desire to
cover up the fact that the merchandise
which they vend is manufactured by
convicts.
