Mutton production has become
largely a question of furnishing lambs
FOR the market. The buyers at Chi.
caso Union stock yards assert that
ABOUT 30 per cent. of all the sheep
recninE that place are lambs While
the very nature of things assures us
there always will be mature sheep
sold as mutton. we are constrained to
peheve that in the future the demand
Tor lamb mutton will be even strong
er IMAM 1t is today. Ii is surely true
tnat the demand for lamb mutton of
tne higher grade will become greater
II our people keep up their present
pace In learning to consume mutton
because their tastes Will become edu.
Gated to discriminate closely between
ordinary and choice mutton products
IL Is within the possibilities of the
natiVe grower to produce choice
lambs for the market but there are
certain prerequisites absolutely neces.
sary TO success In this work, and also
some besetting sins OF which cur ma
i've producers are guilty, which must
oe abandoned before we can do it.
Every one will doubtless agree that
.ne strong, vigorous, rapidly growing
iamo is more profitable to the rro-
queer than his weak constitutional
backward brother And hence to get
at the profitable production of lambs
we must search out the essentials
necessary te the production of the
FORMER sort. One of the first things
TO seek Is strong, uniform eve nock
that are strong in constitution,
active foragers. uniform and regular
breeders, deep mixers and rood
shearers.
1t requires a eve with strong
well developed vital organs to bring
forth a lamb with enough vitality to
battle for life should conditions be
reversed, and it is enough to discour-
age shepherd If, at the lambs birth
both the lamb and the eve are indif.
ferent about coming together and liy-
ing together courageously. The eve
Is not worth much II she has not the |
ability to care for her lamb well. To
secure the desirable bloom on the |
lamb, which is characterized by baby |
lat and plumpness, requires a liberal |
supply of milk from the mother, and
his is hardly possible If she is not

AMERICAN LABOR SKILL.
Low Wages Abroad Offset by Cheaper
Production Here.

Low Wages Abroad Offset by Cheaper
Production Here.
Government experts have been com
piling comparative figures of cost of
manufacturing production and cost of
living as between United States and
Great Britain Here are some of the
striking results
In British factories nearly two and
half times the number of laborers
and IS per cent more power are re-
CURED to obtain equal production re
suits with American factories.
In seventeen selected industries the
average wages in the United States
are almost twice those paid in Great
Britain.
But even with these higher wages
manufactures can be produced for less
wage cost in this country on account
of greater efficiency and skill. For
every $1,000 Of added manufactured
products the labor cost in the United
States is $47O and in Great Britain
S561. although some allowance should
be made because of higher selling
prices of products in this country.
United States machinery also pro
duces more For each 81 900 of prod
uct England requires 1.S4 horsepower,
while the United States requires only
1.59 horsepower.
Among great industries in the Unit
ed States requiring skill and machinery
investigation shows that for each ST.
900 dollars of added manufacture the
labor cost is highest in railway cars.
$G04 per $1,000, and shipbuilding 5000
per $1,000. 1t is lowest in brewing,
$14S per $1,000; -four milling. $195 per
1000 of product.
| Labor cost in England is cheaper
only in making gloves and railway
cars.
! An English wooden or cotton manu-
facturer pays his employees less wages
| per week than the United States man
ufacturer. but is obliged to employ two
to three times as many persons to pro-
duce goods of equal value.

The unrest of our times is largely
caused by the maladjustment of this
great problem of work and the nom
recognition of its divine character.
Our political problems are all second
airy TO this great industrial problem.
The old conditions have vanished-the
old close relationship between employ
er and employee. The right to dismiss
an employee without cause is no long
err recognized as a legal right. 1t never
was moral right. The great disparity
between the reward of the brains that
direct and of the hands that accom-
plish is being swept away. One would
almost wish there were no Industrial
mutterings and discomfort. But the
fact remains that there Is not only
plenty of 1t, but that great deal Of 1t
is apparently justifable.-Rev. B. w.
r. Taylor Of Schenectady.

DUTY OF UNIONISTS.

When one stops to consider
how meager the support that has
been given to union labels has
been it is simply wonderful how
much good the different union
labels have accomplished. Judg-
ed by their progress under indif-
ferent support, one can hardly
conceive how much further the
movement would be advanced
by this time if every union man
or member would purchase moth
ing but union label goods.
Did you ever reflect that most
of the money and effort spent in
union label agitation are spent in
asking for the support of men,
bers of organized labor? If the
members were doing their duty
by the union label these efforts
among them would not be need
ed. Then the same and more
money and effort could be spent
among the general public, and
this, backed by united demand
of all members. would change re-
failing and manufacturing con-
ditions in short order. That IN
ion labels are not stronger is the
fault of men and women and not
of the labels.
