Especial to The Farmer.)


 New York, Jan 3.-A dispute simi- lar to that which caused the great strike at the Remington Arms & Am munition Co.,, in Bridgeport last sum mer has broken out between the structural iron workers and dock builders at the North River municipal docks
 Work on four piers is likely to be held up One of the piers, is being built by the Holbrook, Cabot & Rollins Co.,, which has the contract for\the Stratford Avenue bridge in Bridgeport
 The International Bridge and Struc- tural IronWorkers and the Indepen- dent Dock bui1dersA are the disputing organizations. There is a question as to. which will direct a. certain part Of the work.
 At a recent convention of the Amer ican Federation of Labor in San Fran cisco, the International tBridge and Structural Iron Workers gave char ter to an organization called the Municipal Dock Bui1de4s of New York. This brought the Municipal Dock BuiIders into conflict with the Inde- pendent Dock Builders, who are anl- Hated with the District Council of Car penters and Joiners, and the officials of the American Federation of Labor asked the iron workers to vacate the charter granted by them to the mu- nicipa1 dock workers

Ignorance Greatest Drawback

To Potato Growing
 Ignorance of production and pos sible uses, coupled with defective mar keting syStemS, are the greatest ob- stac1es to all kinds of farming, partic- ular1y the growing of potatoes. Mar keting success requires that there be grading and standardization, and some use for the percentage which does not ments,'' said pr. H. B. Horton, Agri- cultural Commissioner, at the Con ference of Marketing and Rural Cred its, at Chicago, November 30rh, -'The production drawbacks can easily be remedied, by the use of fertilizer and plant selection to increase the yield and improve the quality. A study of the industrial uses of a, crop will show how it can be utilized for profit, re- gardless of over production or under consumption"
 That potatoes are being used for starch, alcohol poreto flour and oth- CT industrial purposes in Germany was brought out b~ the speaker. I'm portations to the United States had started before the war and there is at present a great opportunity in the utilization of potatoes for industrial purposes. Before the war;, potato flour sold in Chicago at five cents per pound in bulk It is now practically absent from the market
 Quantity and Value
 of Crop Selected.
 Knowledge of fertilizer materials facility of their preparation, mixing, and storing and experience with their use on different crops and soils, make a legitimate basis for factory-mixed commercial fertilizers" says Elmer O. FIppin, of the Cornell Experiment Station, Ithaca, New York, in circu- lar No 23 The Circular is on the subject of Outline of the Function and Use of Commercial Fertilizers and may be secured by writing to the Station
 Speaking of the selection of fer -tf1fzers, MT F1ppin says in part .Cur primary conditions must be consid- cred in selecting commercial ferti1i- gers. These @are 1, the composition of the plant; 2, the composition of the so11s 3, the nature and condition of the soil; 4, the natdre and compost ton of fertilizer materials -'The quantity of fertilizer used must be related to the value of the crop treat ed The higher the acre value of the crop the larger the quantity of fer tflizer that may be used proftabfy-' g

San Juan, Porto Rico, Jan 3-For the first time in the history of Porto Rico a. man is serving jail sentence for violating the law prohibiting the importation and sale of lottery, tic kets- Manuel Cerecedo, whose sen tence of two years imprisonment and a fine of $10,ooO, was recently up held by the Supreme Court of the United States, has surrendered himself and is now in prison.
 Cerecedo was found to be the Por- to Rico representative of the Padre Billing Lottery of Santo Domingo and at the time of his arrest two years ago was charged with disposing of 0,000 lottery tickets every other week.

The GOLD SUPPLY AND THE RELATION
1T BEARS TO The TARIFF SITUATION

What will become of accumulations of gold, after
the war; if the present Democratic tariff remains in effect?
statement has just been prepared from official records
which shows the relation the gold supply bears to the
tariff situation The statement shows that in the last SIX
months of 1872 under Tats administration, expectation Of
gold amounted to S976 000 while for the first six months
of 1913 three months of the time under Mr. Wilson, exporta
ton of gold amounted $685. 616 For the year ending
June 30 1914 all under Mr. Wilson, expectation of gold
amounted to 1203529 and for the pear ending June &c.
1916 the amount exported $146225148 and of this
amount $13600000 exported in the last five months of
1914 This large expectation of gold did not stop until
eral months after the began and not until large exporta
on of products of country caused by demands of the
war; enabled people to meet their obligations with goods
in place of with gold.
Another point is that every time there has been Demo
cratic administration the public debt has increased and it has
always been larger than the public debt under former Re-
publican administrations The last year of the Harrison ad
mnistraon the total debt less cash in the Treasury
$685. OO the last year of Cleveland administration the
debt amounted 1886 00O while the bonded debt the
year of the Harrison administration amounted to $685.
00000 and by the last year the Cleveland administration
it amounted to S4 000 After the Cleveland adnstra
ton there the with Spain and the building of the
Canal yet the public debt less cash in the Treasu
~ the last year of the Taft administration amounted to
10000 while the debt for 1915 under President
Wilson, amounted 000 and the bonded debt the
last year of the Taft administration S963 0000O while
the last year it amounted to $969,000,000.
