KEEP farm ORDERLY
SAY COM'R. PAGE
1T PAYS TO LOOK AFTER LIT
TIE DETAILS AND KEEP
UP REPAIRS.

The farmer who is farm owner
should take as much interest In how
his farm and premises look, as the
farm wife takes pride in her dress and
personal appearance, says Commits
sioner John H. Page, in his weekly
bulletin to the farmers of Arkansas.
1t does not cost anything to keep the
farm dressed up" and looking well.
The premises can be made to look neat
and tidy and weli-kept, and reflect
credit upon the owner without addi-
tional expense or trouble.
| do not mean that it does not cost
ANYTHING either in money or effort to
keep the farm looking neat and trim
and in order, but | do mean that it
will not cost as much as it will pay.
1t pays to keep the barn and buildings
in good repair. 1t is an absolute loss
to neglect it. 1t pays to keep the gates
and hinges in order, and the fences IN
good repair. They look better and pro-
tect the crops. You know the crops
and the loose stock can't both do well
in the field together. 1t is better for
both for them to be separated.
1t costs something to keep weeds,
briars and bushes cut down along the
turn-rows, but it will pay to do it.
Sow some good grass along the bitches
after leveling the ground, and then
keep it cut down for hay. The hay
crop can be harvested at small cost,
and it will pay well for the trouble,
and the ditch will be kept in good or
der at profit. Treat the turn rows
and roads sides in the same way, or
pillow up the waste space when the
crop is "laid by" and plant in peas.
1t is perhaps best to break, harrow
and plant turn-rows to peas just after
the last blowing. The turn-rows will
make lots of peas and hay. When you
find the fence rows growing up it is.
good idea to run couple or three fur
rows alongside and turn the grass and
weeds under Keep the space clean.
When you are through cultivating
tic crop. plant the fence rows to peas.
You can gather the peas or cut the
vines for hay. The outlay of labor is
less in the long run than to let these
waste spots grow up, and wait until
the late summer and clean them o,
and the crop yield will more than pay
for the trouble Then, too, your farm
will look neat and tidy and we'll kept,
and the premises will look like thrift
ty farmer lives there, and you will
be referred to and talked about as a
good farmer.
And just think, you will get the eX-
ira hay and peas, and the reputation
and save money besides!

. Week in Mills at Little Falls
Some Were Paid as Low as So
All Of Them Born in Europe.

Little Falls, N. Y.-Low wages
which made it impossible for them to
earn enough to live upon, despite long
hours, was the direct cause of the big
strike in the textile mills here, &C
cording to the testimony of a score OF
witnesses before members of the state
board Of arbitration who are acting az
mediators. The strike has been in
progress for months and has resulted
in frequent outbreaks.
Men, women and girls who appeared
az witnesses united in saying their
only grievance related to wages. All
OF the witnesses, who are members
or the Industrial Workers Of the
World, we're born in Europe and have
been in this country from one to ten
years.
Most OF them were examined
through interpreters. They were CIV
en- wide range in testifying, but their
stories varied little, except as to the
amount Of pay they had received.
Practically all the witnesses were
piece hands. None Of them received
more than $11 a week. When the
law limiting their work to flfty-eight
hours went into effect they testified
that wages had fallen as low az 81
and IS q week, and even lower in some
cases.
Their demands, which they said led
to the strike, were that they should
receive sixty hours pay for fifty-four
hours work and . Is per cent in
crease for piece work.
