eight hour day. It has been adjudg-
ed by the thought and experience Of
recent years thing upon which So
city is justified in insisting as in the
interest Of health, efficiency, content
ment and general increase Of eco
nOmic vigOr. The whole presumption
of modern experience would. it
seemed to me, be in its favor wheth-
er there was arbitration or not and
the debatable points to settle were
those which arose out of the accept
ance OF the eight-hour day, rather
than those which affected its estab-
lishment.
Il therefore proposed that the
eight t-hour day be adopted by the rail-
way managements and put into prac-
tice for the present as substitute
FOR the existing ten-hour basis Of pay
and service; that | should appoint.

small commission to observe the re-
suits of the change, carefully study
ing not only the figures of the alter
ed operating costs, but also the condi-
tions of labor under which the men
worked and the operations of their
existing agreements with the rail-
roads, with instructions to report the
facts as they found them to the con-
gress at the earliest possible day but
without recommendation; and that
after the facts had been thus disclos-
ed an adjustment should in some or
derly manner be sought of all the
matters now left unadjusted between
the railroad managers and the men,
supreme Court Decision cited.
These proposals were exactly in
line, it is interesting to note, with the
position taken by the supreme court
of the United States when appealed
to to protect certain litigants from
the financial losses which they con-
fidently expected if they should sub

that 1t would not undertake to form
a Judgment upon forecasts, but could
base It's action only upon actual eX-
perience. that it must be supplied
with facts, not with calculations and
opinions, however scientifically at
tempted. To undertake to arbitrate
the question of the adoption of the
eight hour day in the light of results
merely estimated and predicted would
be to undertake an enterprise of con-
lecture No wise man could under
tawe it, or, If he did undertake IT.,
could feel assured of his conclusions.

EGG MAN THINKS WE'LL
OF FLEMING PRESENTER

Writing in Western Poultry, "
Prem Moore, poultry husbandman at
the state university, urges farmers
and poultry men to give attention to
the importance of preserving eggs.
He tells of the two successful meth
DDS, water glass and the Fleming Egg
Preserver. The latter is being used
at the present time at the university.
There is one condition in the egg
trade" says Mr.. Moore, "that is as
certain as death, and that is high
prices for eggs during December"
After telling of the water glass
method and about securing the Elem
ing preserver, he gives the latter a
boost:
Full directions go with the Flem-
ing Egg Preserver and if they are
followed, it is the best method for
storing eggs on the farm that is to
be found in the markets ="
Water glass will be high this
year. We have no interest in the
Fleming Egg Preserver, in ny way,
either directly or indirectly, only that
we wish to place the information be-
fore the farmers and poultry-men OF
the state, which will be of the great
est benefit"

This demonstration work is of the
utmost importance in the spread of
sound agriculture. 1t is almost i'm
possible to name the many forms in
which it is being carried on, but one
instance of its effect in Alabama is
illuminating. A few years ago GRIM
son clover was an unknown crop in
that state. The department decid-
ed after considerable study that it
was one of the most suitable legumes
for the section and determined in
troduce it. Ten farmers each in ten
counties agreed to plant one acre
as an experiment. Two years later
there were 100000 acres in crimson
son had had its effect.
Sugar Beet Experiments
Another important demonstration
in progress at the present time is
concerned with cultural methods for
sugar beets. In this 1000 farmers
are taking part. Another thousand
in the arid areas of the great plains
are planting trees to make shelter
belts, as recommended by the depart
ment, and are making their farms
a meeting place for their neighbors.
j In the cotton belt 80 farmers are
demonstrating the advantages OF
superior varieties and improved cul
tural methods and SO in South Caro-
lima and Alabama are showing how
to breed wllt-resistant cotton and are
producing for sale seed of varieties
developed by the department.
The third way in which farmers
are actively cooperating with the de,
partment is in the conduct of ex.
lperiments. These are as varied al
the demonstrations. One man, fol
example, reports regularly on his
progress in breeding ostriches, while
more than 1900 are growing the
plants which the department intro
duces from foreign countries. Sixty
farmers are now furnishing the lane
land labor for experiments in corn
improvement and 80 are aiding thu
tobacco work Of the department II
the same way. Seed corn furnished
by the department is being tested b!
900 farmers who, to a certain extent
are also demonstrating the varieties
they test.
Without the assistance which it re
ceives in these and similar ways, thu
department of agriculture could no
: do the work it does. The fact tina
: hundreds of thousands of practica
farmers and business men find tim
to the departments undertakings in
: dictates that they believe them vita
: to their own affairs.

BETTER FARMS DEPARTMENT
The Republican Pays 81 Each Week for an Idea
ON What You Have Planned to Increase
Your Crop Yield or Make Home More
Beautiful---City Lot or Farm

The best way to establish a lawn
ia to fertilize it we'll and cultivate II
the fall before planting. The grass
seed should be sown In March .,
early April and in buying the SEED
it always pays to buy the best as
It oftentimes saves the labor OF de-
stroying weeds later on.
The most important item IN the
proper care of the lawn the first sea-
son is moving. 1t should be moved
as soon as the grass reaches helgnt
of three inches and as often as need
ed Frequent moving Kills ali an
nual weeds and grasses by prevent
ing them from seding. All the CLIP
pings should be left on the ground
during the first seasons CROWN as
they help to fertilize the ground.
A nice hedge is pretty to enclose
a lawn and some of the old-fashioned
hardy shrubs such as the hydrangea,
oleander and lilacs are the best KIND
of plants to ornament lawn. AFTER
they are once established they are
hard to kill by frost or adverse
weather.
Small beds of flowers also add
much to the attractiveness OF a lawn
and every lover of flowers has some
particular variety which he enjoys
and with very little expense one can
have a nice flower bed. Besides beau
ttifying our surroundings and making
our homes more attractive places IN
which to live, flowers are really edu-
Gators for they give us higher aims
in life and teach us to appreciate the
beuties of nature. j,
We have had our lawn seeded
down for three years, but every year
when we needed water to irrigate 1t
the headgate in the canal would go
out and we could not get the water to
make it green and pretty. This year
they built a new cement headgate
in the canal so we expect to have
water when we need it. We have
tried watering with hose from the
well but that proved very unsatis-
factory method and was hard work.
1t is said that environment has
much to do with the making OF men
and women and if this is true l think
the farm homes should be the pref
test and happiest places on earth and
1t is just as easy to have a home In
stead of only a place to live II one
only thinks SO.

THE HOME MERCHANT
WHAT MANNER OF MAN

I was asked who the home mer-
chant is. | answered:
He is the chap that gives credit
when you are financially broke. He
carries your accounts until you can
pay.
He is the chap that gives you back
your money or make exchanges when
you are not satisfied.
He is the chap that meets you at
the door with a hand shake and bids
YOU goodbye with a kindly message
to the kiddies.
He is the chap who, with his clerk,
lives among you, to the benett OF
your community. They help support
your schools and pave your streets
he is the home merchant, your friend
and neighbor.
Now don't you think you owe him
your trade and your support and your
friendship?
Every dollar you spend out of town
goes to strangers who use the money
to build up somewhere else. You have
to send the money in advance for
they do not know you. If you are
broke you can not trade with them.
The prosperity of your town makes
you-and it depends upon the success
of the home merchants. You are
Judged by your merchants.
Carranza is like the little boy that
stood on the burning deck eating pea
nuts by the peck-only in his case
it is probably whiskers.

Housekeeping; the 80,946 members
Of the farm bureaus and county as
