OPEN LETTER TO ORGANIZED
LABOR.-Why is it that union men
read scab newspapers and knock
some union newspaper because they
sometimes do not like the way the
editor or some other writer has writ
ten articles that they do not agree
on?
And why is it that they talk so
much about the union label and when
you ask them, "Say, let's see your
hat or coat" they Immediately lose
their tongue and give some poor ex-
cuse.
I have seen active labor leaders
and representatives of labor unions
eating in non-union restaurants, and
while checking their hats and coats
I could not find a union label on
them. Why is it?
AS a hotel worker 1 have met a
large number of labor leaders in va
rioUs hotels and have told them time
and again that we union hotel en-
plOyes are working under cover, as
our bosses do not want union labor,
and the question is why do union
men patrOnize such hotels?
There are also some union men
who claim that they can't find a
store which sells union label goods.
I wish to state that l have no trouble
getting union label goods, as 1 have
told the stOrekeeper where I spend
my good money that want union
label goods for my money, and got
it. You would-be union men can do
likewise. So don't dodge.
If the working class was to use
their purchasing power they (the
working class) would in a short
time compel big business to get union
label products if they want to con-
tinUe doing business. -
In conclusion. my fellow union

man, make up your mind that from
now on you will see that you and
your friends will put their shoulders
to the wheel and help circulate the
union label products, whatever it
may be, and through your co-Opera-
ton the chances are that in the near
future the workers will discontinue
buying non-union products, so then
and only then will the workers real
ize that through cooperation they
got rid of scab-made goods.-Henry

IS THIS A GREAT HoPE?-I wish
to quote a line or two from the Chi
cago Evening American under the
heading, "Girls to replace striking
messenger boys in New York strike"
under date of Nov. 1:
Business men are suffering in
convenience today because of the
strike of 1000 messenger boys. But
a great and beautiful hope is in
sight"
And this is what they call a great
and beautiful hope:
''The telegraph officials announce
they are going to employ girls and
women to take the places of the
striking boys if the boys remain
away"
Now, let me ask any one of my
readers, or any one with common in
teIigence, if this act is either great
or beautiful.
Is it not unfortunate enough that
we have tramping across cobble-
paved streets youths striving to earn
SIS per week, and is it to be such that
our women and future women are to
struggle on this same path?
Those of the poorer class will take
their young daughters out of school
and misrepresent their ages in order
that they may add this mite" of per-
haps SIS a week to the household up
keep, while the young son of the
family remains idle where he could
make So and bring the profit" 81
more.
Again, it is up to the parents of
these young girls and the common

CHICKS RELISH GREEN FEED
Fresh Vegetables Should Be Supplied to Younesters-Composition of
 Good Mash.

The little chicks must be supplied with a quantity of green feed or fresh vegetables after they are few days old. A good rule would be to have one-third of the ration green feed, one-third cracked grains and one-third mash.
 Ground oats, bran and middlings in equal parts, make a very good mash for chicks. There is nothing magic or medicinal about the prepared chick feeds.
 Chicks that become injured, and es- pecially if in a manner to become bloody, should be promptly removed from the brooder Chicks are strong ly cannibalistic if once started, and will quickly tear to pieces an injured chick if they once get a taste of the blood. Smear tar over any injured or bleeding spots.

are allowed to select their - own mates, which is indicated by the male billing and driving the female. Experienced breeders, however, are occasionally deceived by their actions in selecting sex. In forced mating, as in natural mating, the breeders should be selected with definite object, us- ing males strong in points in which the females are weak. It is some times advisable to break up the mat ing between old pigeons and young birds, although these pairs often give good results. Where matings produce undesirable qualities, it is necessary to remate or cull out the flock. Con- tinued close inbreeding is not desira- ble and many try to avoid any in- breeding. Where pigeons are banded, the female on one foot and the male on the other, it is fairly easy to reg ulate inbreeding.

Pekin Duck.

They lay a large egg. These eggs have a very fine flavor.
 You will find the eggs not as fertile if you let the ducks grow thin.
 Give the ducklings plenty of air and stuff them with feed. Sprinkle sand over their feed as this will be sure way of them getting as much as they need.
 Watch that the ducks have suitable attention and regular feed. A few well cared for pays better than too many that are sighted.

c-e fell swoop from Jack Frost this
mt. .ling and Presiding became the most
popular and for the moment the most
sensible of indoor sports. Without ap-
pearing TO seize time by the oarlock, or
is it the forelock, one would like to think
of it as the coolest morning of the win
ter. There will be colder, though, be-
fore the wind-swept regime OF April be-
gins, but Dec 80 with its sub-zero read
ing of % has set pretty frosty pace.
From perfectly reliable sources, it is
learned that the mercury sank matter
of two degrees after g o'clock to-day.
On the heights there were readings an
hour later of minus Is and at South
Barre in the great and general store
court this forenoon it was said that the
mercury hung around the % mark, sub
zero calculation. Down in the city flats
where most of the cold weather stories
hang around until they get into print,
none of the aspirants would back up
from minus 20 registration and 9TH
ers were lower. At Williamstown it was

from Woodsville this morning even great
err depths were attained by the mercury.
