WAGE REDUCTION
By SIC. REDF F|ELD

Flint, Mich, oct 22.-Notice was
served on employers of labor tonight
by Secretary Redfeld, OF the depart
mont of commerce, that he had not
abandoned its intention to inyesti-
gate reductions Of wages, made un-
der the plea that the new tariff com
pelled retrenchment The Secretary
voiced his warning in an address to
the Flint Board of Commerce.
When it was suggested some
months ago he said, that the in
quiry powers of the department might
under certain conditions be used to
learn whether conditions in any gen
eral industry were such as to justi-
fy reduction Of wages when alleged
to be made because of tariff changes,
there appeared very general comments
on the alleged action, which comments
we're chiefly remarkable for their Wig
or in dealing with an assumed state
of facts that did not exist.
An attitude Of courteous candor,
which was not for a moment MS
understood by the gentlemen who were
directly concerned, was also altered
I'm the telling of it as TO put the de
partment in the position Of menacing
individuals and establishments with
hostile intrusion, if excuse could be
found for 50 doing.
When the direful results which pro
phets of evil foretold did not occur
the facile imaginations Of some cd
itors lef them to say that the secretary
of commerce had withdrawn from his
attitude. The secretary Of commerce
has done no such thing. He accepts
no responsibility for the yagarious re-
marks they would have had him say
and which they would like to criticise.
The views expressed in the address,
because of which all the dust arose,
have not been changed and the action
that was suggested in that address
will be taken if the circumstances sug-
rested therein should arise and seem
to make it necessary.
Meanwhile the department will not
be bluffed' By those who wish II 10
err. into action which would have for

The Pleasant Hour Cub spent a
delightful day at the Rod and Gun
Club Lake on Yesterday, as guests
of Mrs. A. H. Palmer.
The ladies' were DRIVEN to the
lake in automobiles and a jolIler
crowd has seldom enjoyed the hos

The morning hours were spent in
embroidering and at noon a deli
cious and appetizing meal was served
Afterwards the crowd, warmed by
the cneer of the good dinner, grew
rather hilarious, and two of the staid
and dignified matrons danced-Well
it looked like a jig, but then looks

other played a brilliant piano ac'

This bit of youthful frolic SO enIiy-
ened the crowd that Others dug np
accomplishments from the past and
one lady voluntarily gave reci,a-
ton. A touching little poem she re-
tied while the guests furtiyely brush
ed away their tears upon the corner
of their embroidery.
Mrs. Dove was then initiated as
member of the club, and the SOL
emn rites conducted upon the banks
of that lonely lake with only the
whirr of a ducks flight or the oc-
casional shot from a sportsman's gun
TO break the silence, are secrets to

Hour Club.
Other incidents enlivened the af-
ternoon and one lady, who considers
herself an automobile driver of more
than ordinary caution, brought them
to fitting climax by neatly taking
plug out of the top OF her car
while driving into the barn.

tt Q seP- r.
The great value Of cowpeas % I
feed and as q soiErenovating crop
should give them more important
place in Missouri agriculture. Their
short period Of growth makes them
especially suited to the man who
wishes to build up land rapidly while
he Is at the same time securing re-
turn from It in feed. The crop is
one which will undoubtedly become
of much greater importance in Mis-
souri, as the land is tarned more In
tensely.
Cowpeas may be seeded in the corn
at the last cultivation or they may be
put in the row when the corn Ii. plant
ed. In the first case they are best
drilled in with q one-horse drill at the
rate of two or three pecks per acre
when the corn is laid by. To be sure
of a stand 1t is best to lay the corn
by little earlier than usual. They
may be broadcasted and plowed in,
but this method is not SO sure OF se-
curing a stand as is the method of
drilling them. In drilling 1t is best to
remove the two outer hoes or discs,
putting three rows In each middle.
The Missouri Experiment Station is
coming to prefer the seeding of cow
peas In the hill or drill to seeding
them between the rows. especially in
the northern half of the state. Ex-
periments on the various outlying ex-
pertinent fields have shown that
where seeded between the rows they
have materially decreased the corn
yield, in many cases acting seemingly
as weeds. When planted in the hill
or drill, however, 1t is best to wait
until the ground is thoroughly
warmed. A special cowpea seeding
attachment must be used on the corn
planter. Such attachments are now
on the market for use on part of the
makes of corn planters.
The amount of cowpeas to SOW in |
the hill or drill depends somewhat on
the variety of peas. But In general
approximately the same bulk of peas
should be sown as of corn. Around a
gallon an acre of the best quality
would be a fair estimate. Peas plant
I'd with the corn in, this way will
make more seed than when sown be-
tween the rows, this method being
desirable where the corn
md peas are to be hogged down. The
Black" cowpea is one of the best
to use for this purpose, al
though the "Whippoorwill" and "New
Era" varieties are also good. Where
one wishes to cut up the corn and
peas together it is best to use vim
Ing variety like the "Clay" that will
twine about the stalks. Cowpeas are
sometimes used in this way for silage
purposes with good results, where
hey climb the stalks well. But 1t is
about as satisfactory to SOW
,eas separate from the corn and put
n about one load of peas OF three or
our of corn as the silo is being filled.
The planting of peas with corn is
me of the cheapest ways of making
'ork, while the use of sheep, especial
y range sheep or lambs, for pastur-
ng these out is also quite generally
satisfactory. The sheep will clean up
he peas and blades of the corn to
he ears without seriously damaging
he corn otherwise. 1t will often pay
veil to sow the cowpeas with the corn
n this way and allow them to fall
own, simply to enrich the land.

DIRECTOR OF Royal KITCHEN.
Aing Georges Chef, Among Other At
tributes, is Noted for His Excess.

StSS EullSlN0llIys -
n Of M remarkable men in the
employ of King George of England
is his chef. Punctuality il his most
striking characteristic. and he has
the reputation of being the most
punctual man in Great Britain. Just
as Big Ben. in the tower of the hous-
.es OF parliament announces II o'clock,
an automobile stops in front of Buck
ingham palace, and a q who ap-
pears to be about fifty years old,
alights. He is neatly dressed in the,
latest Bond street fashion, and always
wears a high silk hat. He also wears
gold spectacles. On entering the pail
e he goes to the kitchen. NIL tho
cooks and dishwashers. on seeing him,
tack off their white hats and stand at
attention. The chef takes his place
at a small desk, and the menu of
the king. after passing the inspec-
ton of Lord Farquhar. is brought
to him. He studies the menu a few
minutes. turns it over to the "sous-
Chef" and leaves the palace. Ex-
actly at 5 p. m. he returns. and then
takes charge of the preparation Of
the kings dinner. He oversees the
undercoofs, ordering them to do this
or that. like a veritable commander
in-chief. Sometimes. but very rarely.
the kings chef takes a hand himself
in the preparation of a special sauce
or of one Of the kings favorite dish
es. His exactitude is proverbial. He
never arrives at the palace Il minute
too soon. nor does he leave a minute
behind time.
