trict for the discharge of coal miner
for membership in an organization.
The last case and by far the most
important is against the Western
Union Telegraph Company for dis
charge of operators for membership
in the c. T. U. of A. The evidence in
this last case was collected and veri-
fed by the department, placed with
District Attorney Foley, where it now
rests, and assurance is given that
prosecution will be vigorously pressed.
Two officers of the company were ar
rested. The explanation of the legal
protection given to employees holding
membership in lawful organizations to
employers who were ignorant of the
law, has prevented many strikes.
1t should be a credit to the labor
unions that very seldom is the de-
partment asked to help a member of
the union to assist in the collection
of wages or to correct a violation of
law. These things are apparently
handled thru the union or the fact
that recognized standard of wages
and working conditions prevents dis
putes arising.

of production for the week ending

Labor Disputes Adjusted.
The department has no power of

invitation of one or the other of the
parties involved. the services of the
commissioner were helpful in settling
many such disputes, some after a
strike was called and many before
that stage was reached, which is the
best time to nrbitrate.
Among the disputes which the de-

ROAD DRAG MADE EFFECTIVE
Directions Given for Constructing I'm
pIement Weighing About 200
Pounds for Dirt Road.

In response to query as to the
construction Of cheap, but effective
road drag the following directions are
given:
Take two planks each ten feet long,
two inches thick and twelve inches
wide, rounding both ends Of one edge
in a manner similar to the run
ners in sled. The two planks are
then placed on edge and connected on
the top by two planks six feet long.
'hus making a sled ten feet long and
six feet wide.
The two runners are again connect
ed by two planks two inches thick and
twelve inches wide. These planks are
set on edge, the same as the runners,
and at an angle of about As degrees to
the runners, as follows:
On the right side Of the drag start
the diagonal plank IL inches back OF
the front, and connect with the OPP
posite runner (Which will be the left
side). feet back Of the front runner ;
then have another plank Of the same

dimensions exactly feet back Of the
front diagonal plank. Be sure to make
an opening in the runners on the left
side, Immediately In front Of each
diagonal plank, the opening to be about
8 inches high and "a inches long. In
order to make the drag solid and well
braced run 2 by IL inch plank dag
Onally across the top, opposite the
planks which serve as drag.
Have an iron shoe about one-quarter
inch thick and 3 inches wide on the
front of the two dragging planks, the
bottom Of the iron shoe to be one-half
inch below the runner on the right
side and exactly even with The runner
on the left side.
Large holes should be bored In
front ends Of the runners In which
to attach the rope or chain to pull the
drag. 1t Is well to hitch the horses as
close as possible. The total weight Of
the drag under these specifications. is
about 200 pounds and an ordinary team
can pull II on dirt road. with a heavy
man on, with less effort than any other
drag Of the same dimensions on the
market and II will be found that this
road leveler will do far better work
than a split-log or metal drag.

HEALTH THAT MAKES WEALTH
Nervous Energy Which Enables One
20 Think New Thoughts and Inltl.
ate New Plans Important

Probably the majority Of men do not
know what real health means. 1t
means more than the capacity to sit
mp and eat, to walk. to board cur and
to bend over desk. Real health
means more than the real ability to do
the same thing day after day. Real
health means degree Of stirring, nerv-
Gus energy that enables one to think
new thoughts. conceive new plans and
initiate new enterprises. Supera-
bundant nervous energy Is back Of ex-
ceptional mental activity. 1t Is the
basis Of all those qualities which are
most essential In the struggle for sue
cess.
1t Is not sufficient to have health
that will enable you to do a common
place days work, Hugo Masters writes
In Physical Culture. The right kind
Of health should give you the energy
with which to perform far more than
q days work, II necessary, even from
q cumulative standpoint. 1t is COM
monty the man with an unlimited Gu
pacity for work who gets on. He Is
able to work long hours without firing.
Successful men invariably enjoy the
possession of this degree of nervous
endurance or working endurance.
But 1t Is not this that Is most I'M
portant. Tho possession Of energy IL
essential. not SO much for the sake Of
the capacity for long hours Of work,
but on account Of the quality Of work
which It enables one to perform.
Quality Of effort Is more important
than quantity Of work and the greatest
value Of unlimited energy lies In CIV
ing one the capacity for concentration,
the capacity for an intensity Of effort
that Is beyond the average man.

Any hard road is good, any pernia-

deal Of truth. that mot only do con-
crete roads harmonize with natural

In the landscape, but their light-colored

concrete pavement presents a sandy
and gritty surface, there are no glar-
ing reflections OF sunlight nor mirror
like effects, as are found with many
other types of surfaces when worn
smooth or when wet.
"Dark-colored roads, merging into
the grass and foliage at the roadside
at night, are indistinct, and there is a
likelihood Of accidents ut curves,
whereas the light-colored surface Is
distinct from the sides of the road.
Under motor traffic the concrete road

Plans have been made to begin the
propagation Of oysters In Bear River
bay, Salt Lake, Utah, this spring, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine in an

Indicated. to the satisfaction Of the
state fish and game commissioner, that
the enterprise is q thoroughly feasible
one. Analysis has shown that the per
centage Of salt In the water Is prac-
tically the same as In ocean oyster
beds. In searching for a desirable Sec
