Attention has been called a great
many times in these columns to the
opportunities now offered for Amer
lea t, get away from its former Gus
tom OF exporting large quantities of
raw materials to be used in the man
ufactlre of goods in foreign coun-
tries. and comparatively small guam
titles of manufactured goods ready
for consumption. No country can
reach the highest standard of indus
trial prosperity if it exports raw ma
terials that might be manufactured
at home and imports manufactured
articles made from these same raw
materials.
Americas chief item of export in
United States leads the world in the
production OF cotton, but England.
France. Belgium and Germany have
supplied most of the world with cot
ton goods. because this country has
exported its surplus cotton to these
countries to be manufactured.
Just now we are exporting large
quantities of wheat, but compare
lively little flour. We are exporting
little cotton, but only because the
foreign mills are unable to manufac-
ture it on account of the war. Our
exports of manufactured articles
have decreased instead of taking
care of the South American trade
which France, England and Germany
have been compelled to abandon we

CALLING OFF THE STRIKE

Colorado Springs Telegraph.
The expected has happened in the
determination of the United Mine
Workers to call off the strike in the
coal fields of Colorado. Actually the
strike has been off for num-
Der of months and all but small
percentage OF the men are back at
work
1t has been costly experiment for
the mine workers organization, 4
costly experiment for the men con-
cerned, very expensive piece of
business to the coal mining compa-
MES and a source of great expense
and humiliation to the people of the
state of Colorado.
If the mine workers had taken the
advice of the committee of editors
of The leading state papers, given to
them over a year ago, everybody
would have been spared the great
expense and the humiliation which
has now become a part of the his
tory of the strike. and all concerned
would have been better off.
In that settlement 1t was proposed
that the operators grant everything
but recognition of the union-that
out OF the seven or eight demands
six CT them be granted. The oper-
ators agreed, but the strike leaders
would not listen to the suggestions.
They preferred to fight and to spend
the hard-earned money of their
members in conducting the strike
| for many months.
In their report recommending the
calling off of the strike the executive
| board makes number of statements
, which most people in Colorado know
to be incorrect, but presumably they
will be sent broadcast over the coun-
try 10 the injury of this common
wealth. 1t is the duty of every or
der-loving citizen to set the facts
right before the people.
Hayes and McLennan and the 9TH
err strike leaders in this state have a
great deal to answer for. They were
determined to call the strikei the
fact Of the fact that most of the men
did not want it. They were deter
mined to unionize the coal camps OF
this state so that their authority
might be supreme. In pursuance of
this object they inflamed the minds
of the mon and imported Mother
Jones to add fuel to the flames Upon

PROFIT BY GOOD CARE
Poultry on the Farm Receives
Indifferent Treatment.
Close Watch Should Be Kept on BusI
ness All Round and Every Com
fort Provided to Prevent All
Infectious Disease.
(By R. g. wEATHERsToNE.l


(By r. G. WEATHERSTONE.)
No matter how good the stock may
be if they have not the proper care
they will pay you no better than mon
grels. Poultry on the farm, as rule
receives Indifferent treatment.
What does care" mean? 1t means
a close watch on the business all
round. 1t provides every comfort
prevents disease by keeping the prem
ises perfectly clean, never overcrowds
and Keeps the fowls busy, sorts out
the drones and gives the workers bet
ter attention. In short, care" means
using business principles In every
sense of the word.
The farmer is not giving the proper
care when he allows his fowls to roost
on trees, In wagons, wagon sheds, OF
on the board fences. The proper care
is not given If the appetites and con
ditions Of the fowlsa are not studied.
System and regularity play an i'm
portant part In care. Economy in
labor, the saving of steps, the saving
Of muscles, the saving of time-all are
important.
Shiftlessness causes expensive ex.
periences. There Is sure to be profit
in anything we take care of. Success
Is accorded to management. Profits
depend upon the quality and quantity
of brain work put into the enterprise.
II a man performs his work In a
mechanical way he will not be apt
to do 1t well. There are too many
who go by luck" They do not stop
to think. They do not take notice OF
the little matters. They are always
hurrying to get done.
1t is said quality makes prices, but
1t costs considerable labor and brains
to make quality. Good management
curtails expense. Successful poultry
men use good common sense methods,
some others but little method. and
alas, some not any method at all.
Hard luck is generally brought
about by mismanagement. Disorder
creates disgust Study and care, and
not luck and big talk, are the elements
of success.
To quote Judge Brown: There are
too many poultrymen who let their
enthusiasm go down as the mercury In
the thermometer goes up or down.
The men who make the marked sue.
cess in poultry raising are those
who never flag in their attention
those who know that the increased
labor and close attention hot weather
brings must be religiously observed
the same being the case when the
cold weather is with US. 1t is the
man or woman behind the hen rather
than the breed that brings success.
Scrub treatment will bring about
scrub results. The best paying breed
is the one that is best cared for Zeal
In the prosecution Of the work should
be the characteristic of every poultry
breeder.
In conclusion, it must not be for.
gotten that success depends on man
agement Business attention given to
a flock of properly housed hens would
be a revelation to many, especially to
the farmers themselves.
