Of BUILDERS
IS SLOWLY CRUMBuNG

London, Aug. 1.-THE big lockout OF
builders, which has held UP building
operations In London for months, is
slowly crunbling without any defi-
mite settlement, and the army Of IRON
workers, masons, carpenters and other
men are returning to their work
The lockout arose from a number
Of sectional strikes, the men demand
ing better wages and shorter hours.
Negotiations went on for week after
week without any result, except for
the members of the big and wealthy
trades unions, who secured better
terms and have now returned to work,
leaving the smaller unions, which re-
fused all terms offered by the con-
tractors, to shift for themselves. AS
these smaller unions are nearly bank
rupt, the members are expected to
follow the example of the more wealthy
unions.
The story of the struggle shows how
the men are revolving against the old
leadership system. Three times the
men refused terms agreed Upon by
their leaders.

How to Make a Roast

;
Place the empty pan over a low
fire flame (gas, oil, etc, if desired
plate can be placed beneath) for
about half a minute 50 that the
sides OF the roaster become well
heated; then take the roast and
scar it, turning it over two or
three times III order that the meat
may retain its juices; then cover
with the other pan, have a low
flame and season when it is about
half through. As aluminium is
an excellent conductor Of heat,
roast made in this manner cuts
down the fuel used fully one-third,
and reduces to a minimum the in
tense heat of the oven, IN summer.
If in an oven use similar to above
directions.

RAISE WHEAT ON CORN LAND
Investigation Shows That Crop Was
Much Larger Than on Any Other
Soil In Northwest.

A singular fact came to the at.
tention of farmers Of the north cen.
trail states during harvest time. When
e wheat had been sown on corn
land the crop was much larger than
on any other soil. Investigation has
shown this to be the case On SO many
farms that it is believed to be the
universal rule.
It is, perhaps, fair to assume that
in any scheme OF crop rotation the
intelligent farmer looks to the ad.
vantage of thorough cultivation be-
fore anything else. Certainly he may
with propriety be so advised. But
the next wise step would be to let
wheat follow corn.
When land plainly shows the need
of a rest q couple OF crops of colver,
millet or Canada peas serve the pur-
pose. The farmer who is fitting cattle
or hogs for market needs corn and
other fodder and be will find profit in
this sort of Investigation, perhaps
far beyond what he can gain from
raising wheat. The whole argument
is in favor of an intelligent diversity
of crops as well as a thorough cult
walton OF the soil.
