The Cooks and Pastry Cooks
Denounce Bismarck Gar
dens, Headquarters Of
United Societies, As
Foe Of Labor
SAYS BREWERS CONTROL
HOTELS

Union labor in Chicago has at last
got its eyes open. 1t is fighting the
whisky trust as labor's worst foe.
Flaming circulars containing the
sentences-"Shall the whisky trust
destroy organized labor?" Bismarck
Garden and hotel unfair to labor"
and similar declarations, and an
nouncing speeches on February Is by
John Fitzpatrick, president of the
Chicago Federation of Labor. and
other labor leaders, were scattered
broadcast through the city.
Ebeling Says Labor Is Opposed to
Whisky Ring
In leading article in the Day
Book last week. Fred Ebeling, busi-
ness representative of the Cooks and
Pastry Cooks Association, discusses
the war between his union and the
Bismarck gardens, which, by the way,
is the meeting place of the United
Societies.
Behind the strike of walters.
cooks and bartenders at the Bismarck
hotel and Bismarck gardens" says
Mr.. Ebeling, "there is more than a
demand of workers for better condi,.
tons. There is more than the re-
fusal of proprietors to recognize the
union. There is much bigger stake.
The strike at the Bismarck hotel and
gardens is, in reality, the warning of
organized labor on whisky and tho
whisky ring"
According to Mr.. Ebeling, the
Schoenhofen Brewing Company and
manufacturers of Edelweiss beer and
other big liquor concerns own or
control majority of restaurants and
hotels in Chicago.
There is profit, of course" he
says, I'm hotel rooms and food, but
there is much greater profit in cock
tails, rickeys, bottled wine, beer, etc.
Booze sale profits in cafes and
hotel restaurants were so fine and
fancy that the booze manufacturers
did not overlook bet. They stepped
right i'll and got the retail sale on
their stuff for themselves by building
or buying the hotels"
Will Be Fight to a Finish
"Of all manufacturers" continues
Mr.. Ebeling, "distillers are considered
the worst opponents of organized
labor. The fight must go on
until the powerful grip which the
liquor interests hold over the lives of
men and women, over us restaurant
employees in particular, is broken"

Keep Pasture For Hogs

Perhaps the high price of grain
will awake farmers to the full APP
preciationof the grazing ability
of hogs. There never was SO
great an incentive to save grain
and use green forage. It is gen
orally understood now that prof
table hog feeding in summer in
wolves the use of pasture of some
kind, but there is more difference
in hog pastures than many people
suppose. However, a few men
realize the Importance of ample
growth and tender palatable for
age in a hog pasture, and they
profit by the knowledge.
Very often the only hog-tight
field on a grain farm is the small
grass pasture near the barn that
serves for all kinds of stock.
Camas Prairie chronicle. [volume] (Cottonwood, Idaho) 1901-1917, 1917-07-20

Horses and sheep keep the grass
too short for cattle or hogs. In
stances have probably come to
notice when hogs on such a pas
ture last year did not return
market price for the grain they
ate. Other farmers nearby whose
hogs ran in alfalfa, clover and
rape figured that they got much
more than market price for the
grain fed, and in some instances
twice as much. This means that
their hogs in good pasture prob
ably made twice as much pork
from each hundred pounds of
grain as was made by the hogs
on short grass.
The hog win eat an abundance
of green forage if given a chance.
The important thing to bear in
mind is that the better the forage
the more the hog will eat of it,
and then the more grain there is
left for other purposes, Good
succulent pasture crops like al
falfa, clover or rape often make
400-80O pounds of pork per acre
besides what can be accounted
for through the grain fed.

Speaking recently before the Terra
pin Club Of Philadelphia, Eugene G..
Grace, President Of the Bethlehem
Steel Company, said in part:
In a peculiar sense Bethlehem Steel
serves the American people.
For example, though we have been
able to obtain in Europe almost any
price. we have adhered, in u charges
to the United States Government, to
the basis Of prices established before
the war began.
We agreed-if the Government would
abandon its plans for a Federal plant
to make armor for our Navy at any
price the Government itself might con-
slider fair.
Our ordnance plants are at the dis
posal of the nation at a fair operating
cost. plus a small margin, thus saving
the Government investment and de-
probation.

WASHINGTON opinion

Washington, Nov. 1.-The great bat
tie of the northern Italian plains is
swinging into the first stages of its
crisis today. With Won Mackense s
hosts now within range of the Taglia-
mento river at some points, General
Cadorna must soon indicate his plan of
defense along that line.
Cadorna apparently is trying to keep
the German in doubt about his propos-
ed stand. Cable dispatches today indi
gate the. Italians are making desper-
ate effort to outflank the German bri-
gades, taking advantage of every fea-
ture of the terrain to halt and confuse
the advance of the Teutons.
1t is now believed the high point in
the fighting will not be reached before
November or s. 1t is expected that
the struggle will still be in desperate
progress November Is when the first
great allied conference with America
is held in Paris.
As q result of Germany's stroke
against Italy, !sn entirely new war pro-
gram must be mapped out at this con-
ference. For some days there has been
a growing belief among representa-
tives of allied powers that too much
Importance must not be laid on the
western front.
Complete plans for reinforcing Italy
will be made at the conference, it is
said. No matter how successfully Ca
lorna checks Won Mackensen now, the
Germans must be driven out of Italy
military attaches here declare.
Otherwise, they would have establish
ID base for desperate assaults on
-talv, Russia and possibly France next
ipring.
