The government also issues the fol-

In the case of some plants, neyerthe-

therefore recommended that not moro

treated manure should be applied tc

erably more than this amount, 1t is
suggested that all cars containing
borax-treated manure be 80 marked

effects Of large amounts of borax on

The above demonstrates the neces-
sity OF informing the public what
quantity to use SO as not to injure
plant life; 0.62 pound for 10 cubic
feet would mean practically nine
ounces of borax
In garbage cans, the government
recommends two ounces OF borax.

Eventually, we are informed, the

will raise the miner to $4 The man
who actually gets out the ore will be
given a raise, while the mere shoveler

win them wide support and leave their
enemies with a leg to stand ON.
From the same source, we learn that
the arrest of Mcdonald is not viewed
with favor by the powers that be.
While fugitive, the radicals leader
was imDotent and an object of de-

permitted him to go would have been
far better policy.
