Package condensed mince meat is
made up today OF the best quality OF
dried fruit and other items which can
be found, all of which are found in
the United States with the exception
Of spices and currants. The study OF
packing Condensed mince meat has eX-
tended over a period OF 100 years and
TO-DAY is as near its perfection as we
can possibly conceive The sanitation
m the factories in which il is packed
is beyond reprOach as the competition
today in these lines necessitates the
guarding Of the most minute detail OF
the business. The apples used are OF
the best grade of New York State,
where in our opinion is grown the
best favored apple known. The
raisiEs used are of the best quality
seeded variety No expense is con-
sidered in procuring the very highest
grade Of spices. and sugar, as we all
know. is always sugar, the different
grades merely representing the differ
ent fiavOrs or different EranuialiOn re-
quired for different purposes Every
particle OF fruit or any other article
used in the manufacture or mlnce meat
is thoroughly cleaned and hand picked
by people trained to know what should
and should not be used and in this
manner the article comes to the house
wife cleaner by far than she could
possibly take the same articles in her
own kitchen, regardless Of how clean
il may be, and make up the filler for
her minCe pie. The old idea of dirt
being prevalent in quantity is today
disputed by the greatest authorities on
food products. The meat used in
mince meat is OF the choicest and to-
day the same corn-beer which YOU
and l would use on our table is what
is being used in Serv-us Nince Meat
There are very few pies made which
can be used as handily by the house
wife as mince meat for all il requires
is a little water and being heated for
ten minutes and il is ready for the
crust and then the table and she may
without fear of loss carry three or
| four packages Of mince meat in her
pantry, having il ready at any time
] for the chance occurrence OF unexpect-
| ed company ami it will be a good
dessert free from dirt. 1t is our
| thorough belief that n mince meat pie
/ made from condensed mince meat is
about as cheap a dessert as can be
prepared and yet as good.
| For many years mince meat was
| considered a winter dish. Each year
/ for the last ten our factory has had
| to increase its capacity during the
| summer months until today il runs
| every day OF the year with a regular
/ force of helpers. We ship goods to
| every part OF the country the entire
| year. This Of course means a great
| increase in the use Of these goods over
| when mince meat was eaten only in
/ the winter months which means an in
creased sale over the former winter
consumption

PICK AND SHOVEL
MEN TO RETURN
Reached Agreement Saturday After
noon and Will Go Back This Morn
ing.


The pick and shovel men who went
on strike in this city on Saturday
morning for an increase of wages, will,
it is expected, return to their work
this (Monday) morning. Saturday af-
ternoon steps were taken to bring
about an agreement between the strik-
ers and their employers. The men
agreed to accept 50 a day for eight
hours, time and half overtime and
last for one year from April l, the men
to give three months notice if they
desire to make any change.
Four or five of the larger contrac-
tors signed the agreement and it is eX-
pected that others will sign up today.
Plans are underway for the settling
of the difficulties of the bod carriers
who are out on strike. No trouble of
any kind is anticipated and it is fully
expected that the strikers will all be
back at work again in a very short
time.
Between Is and 100 laborers employ
ed by the E. ]. Cross Co. of Worces-
ter. who are erecting the five-story
building, left their work Saturday
morning.
The laborers Contractor Archibald
Torrance has at work on the new
weave shed he is erecting for the She
tucket Co. and the gang of men Con-
tractor DelCarlo has under his employ
were also idle Saturday. Mr.. Del Car
10 pays his men S12 a week, rain or
shine. which custom is out OF the or
binary.
The strikers attracted much atten-
ton in Greeneville, Saturday morning
as they assembled and marched down
Nodth Main street and Main street 70
Carpenters hall where they held a
meeting.
Strike at New London.
Every building operation in New
London and Groton involving masonry
work is at standstill because of q
strike instituted Saturday morning by
the New London branch of the Build
ing Laborers' International Protective
union of America, otherwise known as
masons' tenders or bod carriers. Among
the larger structures affected are the
Mohican hotel addition, the foundry a.
the plant of the New London Ship and
Engine company and the GriswOld no.
| tel.
The strike came suddenly, although
something of the sort was anticipated
within a few days. The union mem
| bers, of whom there are about $50
placed a demand before their employ,
J SO instead of $3.50. the present stipend
! The employers, after consultation, de
| clined to grant the increase.
| Saturday morning the hod carrier
were at their posts as usual ready L
! go to work, when an order came from
| headquarters to quit. Holds and othe
| implements We're dropped and the mel
| walked off. Nasons are not equippe,
] for business without tenders, so they
| too, were obliged TO forego labor 70
| the day.
The situation is aggravated becaus
| of the importance Of some of tn
/ building operations under way, and
is naturally hoped that an early set
| Element of the difficulty will be reach
ed.
Employers have still another issu
to settle in the near future in refer
ence to an increase of wages, the car
penters having already filed their de
mand for an increase from $3.50 to s
daily, to take effect May I.

MAKE PUBLIC PAY,
HATTERS APPEAL
Workers to Avert Strike by
Compiling Survey.

Orange. y. a.. Apr; 10. Instead OF
striking for the raise in wages TO
which they believe they arc entitled,
members Of the United llstters OF
North America have nit upon unique
plan to persuade their employers to
give them more money. II it is carried
out. a committee of tho national or
ganization will make careful survey
of the hating field, obtain comparative
figures OF prices and costs, and present
them 10 the manufacturers.
Hatters in this centre OF the indus
Try declare that manufacturers are not
getting enough for their product. They
point out that costs have Increased,
despite the introduction Of modern ma
chinery, because OF the unprecedented
advance in the prices of dyes, silks and
furs. Realizing that the manufact-
urers have been hard pressed by this
state Of affairs, the matters have not
felt that they could @sk for higher
wages. Now they want the consumer
to pay.
Hatters here are now said to be
earning a yearly average of about $40
a week. In the busy season they can
often make s25 but at this time OF
year their weekly earnings sometimes
run as low os So Men with families
have been unable 20 get along on this.
