APPLE TRAIN rs
ON IT'S JOURNEY
Two Weeks Run over the Burlington
Lines for Purpose of
Education.

CORNING, Sept. S.-Experts from
the state college at Ames left on a
special demonstration train for a
two weeks run over the Burlington
railroad during which time they will
instruct the growers of Iowa's NAM
moth apple crop in the science OF
packing apples for the market. 1t is
the first time that such a special
train has been run for this purpose in
any state. The train is equipped with
all modern appliances for sorting,
grading and packing apples and five
experts this morning told group of
local farmers how they could Increase
their profits by scientific packing and
proper marketing. The new law in
Iowa governing the sale of all pro
ducts by weight is also being ex-
planned. Experts think that Iowa
can grow as good apples as Colorado
and other western states which now
dominate the market and this tour OF
the experts on special train is the
opening wedge Of a state wide cam
paign to grow better apples, pack them
better and secure better prices on the
market. A special effort is being
made to interest farmers who have
not grown fruit in thn pest and th@
boys and girls on the farm. This
afternoon the train left for Griswold
where an afternoon meeting will be
held. Tomorrow the experts will be
at Hastings and Macedonia; the next
dav at Glenwood and Council Bluffs
and then will follow lectures at Ham

ton from past experience, from the
workingman's standpoint, and the an
sWer will be this. The maintenance of
the guard system is for the purpose of
the operators to rule,sruin, exploit and
kill every spark of liberty. Actions of
this character must, no doubt. be sup
ported with gatlings and Winchester
guns. The representatives for the
mine workers logically convinced the
members of the legislature that the
maintenance Of guard system in West
Virginia is for the sole purpose of pre-
venting the mine workers from organ
izing and joining the United Mine
Workers of America. This fact the
two representatives OF the privileged
class did not deny. We advise the
West Virginia operators to study the
worlds history, and beware of repeti.
ton of history. He who desires to
rule and ruin and assume the position
of Ludwig will meet his fate. In order
to inform the general public that the
actions of the West Virginia operators
must be supported by guards and ma
chine guns, here IS one illustration.
On January 81, 1913, one carload oil
strikebreakers were delivered on

fication: Ten guards with weapons and
two gattIing guns on each end of the
car. Let US ask all the operators IN
