CINE when steam was used for power,
and, occasionally, when gasoline en-
gines were used, one man to feed the
cutter and one man in the silo to
spread and tramp the silage. Each
teamster pitched off his own load.
This makes a crew of eight or nine
men. exclusive of the man who tends
the engine.
(2) In cases where there is a short
age of teams the following method Is
generally practiced. One man, with
three horses, cuts the corn; two men
load the wagons in the field; two men,
or boys, with teams, haul the corr to
| the cutter; n man unloads the
wagons one man feeds and n man
works in the silo. AS soon as a load
arrives at the cutter the teamster
changes his team for an empty wagon
and goes back to the field after anoth-
er load. When a wagon is unloaded
it is run out of the way by hand. With
this method, boys who are not strong
enough to handle the green corn, can
be utilized to drive the teams. This
method requires a crew of six men
and two boys, exclusive of the engine
tender.

Austria Holds Onto Grain.

The Austrian government has de-
cided to organize a grain monopoly on
similar lines to that established by
Germany. The Austrian minister of
agriculture announces that the army
has procured supplies of grain suffi-
cient to last until the end of August.
Owing to the quantities of barley and
maize now being taken for bread
stuffs, there is a serious shortage in
the supply of fodder.

front.
An official statement issued in Wen

important successes in the snow
filled passes of the Carpathians, where
they are attempting to force back the
Russians.
Another daring raid on British COM
merce has been carried out success
fully by a German warship. The ex-

off the west coast @of England,
not far from Liverpool. The crews of
both were saved.
The conflict which has embroiled
the greater part of Europe in the

is true particularly in the east,
where Russia has delved again into
her tremendous reservoir of men pre-

a comparative lull.

without, so far as is known, any de-

Fresh German troops are concen

TO De IOunQ within prison walls, the
individual either knows his neigh
Dor not at all or he knows him very
well. There are few opportunities
for casual acquaintanceship. 1t has
been said that the loneliest place to
live is in the center of a congested
district, where one is constantly
rubbing elbows with his fellow-men
and women yet cannot get to know
them. When one does scrape an
acquaintance with neighbor rapid
intimacies spring up even where the
two parties thereto are of markedly
different temperaments, habits aud
tastes. 1t is as though the chance
acquaintance were forced in upon
one another by the enormous pres
sure of the surrounding multitude.
Much the same condition prevails
in body of men restricted as we
are here. We work in the same
shop, often side by side, for months,
sometimes for years, with men
whose names we do not know.
Sometimes we meet some man in
the yard on holiday, and in few
moments brief intercourse become
familiar with his whole life, and the
innermost secrets of his personality.
And again, we strike up an acquaint-
ance with someone, carry it on
through months of these intermit-
tent conversations, only to find of
sudden that we do not know the
man at all.
A few occasions there are where
two men are thrown together thru
their work or thru mutual enthus-
iasm for some of the limited forms
of diversion attainable, when a real
acquaintanceship, founded on true
knowledge Of one another's ideas,
of clear insight into one another's
outlook on life. will spring up and
grow thru the months, to be broken
only when one or the other shall
leave for a wider field of achieve
ment. The breaking of such friend
ship is a joyful sorrow, if l may
use the phrase. We cannot but
look forward with pleasure to the
wide possibilities opening before
our friend, tho the thot of intercept
ting pleasant and helpful inter
course and of having to build anew,
darken the prospect for ourself. If
we may look forward confidently to
successful career for the one who
goes out into the world again, the
pleasure predominates.
1t is with such mingled feelings
that we view the departure of the
man who has been for some months
past our friend and critic in our re-
lations with The Mirror. 1t is with
feeling of reluctance that we face
the necessity of severing relations
always. pleasant and helpful to our
self; reluctance tempered by the
knowledge that our loss is to be the
gain, not only of our friend, but of
all those with whom his new life
will bring him in contact. God
speed.
The new editor of The Mirror we
look forward to the pleasure of
meeting. We are under the i'm
preston that the duties he is about
to assume are not of the easiest. but
are assured that he is admirably
equipped to perform them to the
best interests of those for whom The
Mirror is published. The office is
rich in possibilities; to the new ed
itor hearty wishes for success in
all of them.
Well, there is some consolation
in knowing that the textile workers
in Connecticut receive only from
nine to fifteen cents per ten hour
day. We can make as much as
seventeen cents per ten hour day
here-some days.

Collections Cost Money

St. Louis county loses money on
the collection of personal property
taxes from several hundred tax
payers.
Joseph Nelson. deputy county
treasurer, figures that it costs about
IL cents, for the county to make
each one of its 10000 personal
property tax collections, figuring
postage. stationery and office hire.
A large number of taxpayers
who have valuations of 81, 81 and
s. to pay taxes on. after the deduc-
ton of the 500 exemption to the
head or each family, pay taxes
ranging from 1 cent to IL cents
and it is figured that on these
collections the county would be
money ahead if the collection was
not made.
Mr.. Nelson declared that a
statement was recently sent to a
range town man whose personal
property taxes were listed at
cent and that the taxpayer came to
Duluth to register a kick. He
thought that mistake had been
made and that they should have
been 81 and he wanted to know
where he stood.
