Making Farmers of Factory Workers

A number of manufacturing concerns
whose plants are situated in suburban
districts have sought to aid their oper-
atives to a solution Of the high cost of
living and themselves to a solution OF
their own labor problem by making farm
ers of their factory workers. In many
cases such plants own considerable areas
of land which lie idle pending the time
when it will be needed for extension of
the works. Where companies have found
themselves with this waste land upon
their hands it has been comparatively
an easy matter to induce their wurkmen
to become ullers of the soil. In other
cases the manufacturers have leased
land or contributed toward its leasing.
The factory hand-truck farmer has been
found to more than repay the trouble of
his evolution.
Where the company owns the land II
parcels it into sections and offers one
section to each of its employees upon the
sole condition that he will use it, The
on which the operatives raise much OF
the garden produce consumed in their
kitchens at little other outlay than that
of labor, as the supplies are generally
purchased upon a cooperative basis. In
some cases the plan has been to organ
lie all of the operatives who 20 in for

cultural club. In the purchases of seeds.
fertilizers and garden tools, the club acts
for all of its members. Produce COMPETE
tons are held and some remarkable re-
suits have been accomplished by the
bench worker on the farm.

HER CHANCE.

Jason Meadows had been dead five
months from the 'cave-in' in the
''Swing-Low'' mines, when Howard Car
ney, the mine superintendent brought
his wife Cecilia to Poplar Hollow, to
the cottage he had built across the
''holler'' from the log cabin where lived
Didama, Jason's widow, and Ishmael, hel
crippled boy of eight.
One fervid August day -Didama, enter
ing her yard at the foot of the hill, found
the graceful young woman in the most
wonderful white dress she had ever be-
held, looking, as Didama expressed it,
'.fer all the world like one of them
white angels O. God Almighty" sitting or
the SCARED red chestnut ''choppine
block beside patient little Ishmael.

the little fellows shrill, pleased laugh
rang out. Tell me another I'm. LADY,

my feet hain't no account"
Never mind, I'll come. I'll walk
slowly and it won't tire me-" Cecilia
smiled into his WiStful ewes.
''Oh, lady. I air so glad"'
Listening. Didamas bruised heart, still
sore for Jason, went out toward the
beautiful young creature who was 'bein'
good to her little one, the child she
loved.
"Perserve u.s." she whispered to her
self. She's got a reason for bein'
weakly. She's like me; thar's a little un

aloud, you don't need to traipse down
