TO STRAWBERRIES
December Is Proper Month to Provide
Protection for Winter, Says COL
orado Expert.

(By ]. ]. GARDNER, Colorado Agricul-
tural College, Fort Collns.)
December is the month in which
Strawberries are usually given winter
protection. There are several rea-
sons why this protection is necessary:
First, to protect the plants from the
severe cold and drying winds in this
climate, and, second, to prevent in
jury to the roots caused by freezing
and thawing throughout the winter,
and especially in early spring. The
heaving of the ground in early spring,
due to frost action, is very frequently
the cause of there being no crop that
year.
Any time after the ground is froz-
en-, a mulch of leaves, straw, strawy
manure, chaff or any other such avail
able material should be distributed
evenly three or four inches deep over
the bed. In cases where fine straw,
chaff, or strawy manure is used, the
work may be most economically done
by using manure-spreader strad-
ding the rows. With coarser ma
nure, hand labor will be necessary to
distribute 1t.
The mulch is partially removed
from the plant rows in the spring
about blooming time, sufficient
amount being worked under the plants
to keep the berries clean during the
fruiting season. 1t also assists in
conserving moisture.
Care should be taken not to cover
the beds too deeply nor allow the
mulch to remain ON the plant rows
too long, else the plants may be smoth-
cred.

Few Escape

There are few indeed who escape
having at least one cold during the
winter months, and they are FORUM
ate who have but one and get
through with it quickly and with
out any serious consequences.
Take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
and observe the directions with each
bottle, and you are likely to be one
of the fortunate ones. The worth
and merit of this remedy has been
fully proven. There are many
families who have always used it
for years when troubled with q
cough or cold, and with the very
best results.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agrculture)
For those persons who are fortunate
enough to control land for the growing
of vegetables in sufficient quantity for
the needs of the family, storage will
prove an economy. Likewise, it will
often prove an economy to grow late
vegetables to store. Home storage is
OF Importance at all times, but espe-
cially so if the price of suitable con-
tainers for use in canning and drying
is high.
Reduce Menu Cost.
Crops of suitable sorts that mature
at season when they can be pre-
served by storing should be kept in
their natural condition instead of be-
ing canned or dried. Not only is it
possible to reduce the cost of the
menu materially by growing and stor-
ing vegetables for home use, but the
satisfaction of having supply of
fresh vegetables near at hand. so that,
regardless of markets and winter tenn
peratures, the list may be varied, is
something that cannot be measured in
dollars and cents.
A half-acre garden, if cared for
properly, will produce far more vege-
tables than the average family can con-
sumo during the maturing period OF
the crops. Only a small portion OF
the garden should be devoted to those
vegetables which must be used as sOor
as they reach maturity. Beets, late
cabbage, carrots, celery, onions, pars
nips, potatoes, sweet potatoes, satisfy
and turnips may be stored in theil
natural condition, and should bt
grown to the extent of the family
needs for storage for winter use
Beans of various kinds, including thu
Limas, may be stored dry. The sue
cessful storage Of vegetables is not a
all difficult; in fact, good storage facil
tiles already exist in most homes, i

other parts of the dwelling, depend
ing upon the character Of the product

Suitable Cellars.
A cool, well-ventilated cellar under
the dwelling offers good conditions for
the storage of vegetables. Many cell
lars are not well suited for storing
vegetables because of poor insulation
or lack Of ventilation. Cellars con-
tanning a furnace for heating the
dwelling usually are too warm and too
dry for the storage of root crops. 1t
is often possible, however, to partition
off a room either in one corner or at
one end of the cellar where the tenn
perature may be controlled by means
of outside windows. At least one
window is necessary, and two or more
are desirable for admitting light and
ventilation.

SCIENTIFIC TAXATION WILL COME.

1t may not come this year, nor
next, but eventually the present idiotic
system of taxation will be relegated
to oblivion.
The world wide war is opening the
eyes Of the people to many things
they could not see heretofore. One Of
these is the fallacy Of permitting land
to lie idle while half the world is
bending every effort to conserve
food
If land values were taxed the pub
lie treasury would be enriched by
billions of dollars; land monopoly au-
tomatically. would disappear. and Il
scarcity of food henceforth would be
impossible.
In addition to taxing land values,
the day will come when an equitable
tax will be levied upon incomes and
swollen fortunes, and all persons max
ing or furnishing supplies of every
nature whatsoever to the. government
will be limited as to their profits.
With a sane system of taxation, to-
gether with public ownership of al
public utilities, life would not be a
hell for the many and a heaven for
the few, but it would be as God in
tended it for alI,-EX

POLITICAL ACTION.

In looking through the leading
labor journals from various sections
of the country, one is impressed by
the large number which contain
news stories and editorials in refer
ence to organized labors entrance
into the political field
All of which means that the
workers are waking up, and when
they finally emerge from their leth-
argy into complete recognition of
the potentiality Of political action,
elections will mean more than at
present
Trades unionists know from ex-
perience what collective action has
done in the economic field, and SINH
lar methods applied in the political
sphere will prove just as effective.
The following from the Bakers
field, CAL, Union Labor Journal is
typical of the change of sentiment in
the labor movement:
There has been marked evolution
in the attitude Of organized labor in
the matter of political action during
recent years. The time was when or
sanized labor needs. must be shy of the
matter Of politics because of the in
tensity Of partisan feeling, which po-
litical discussion invariably aroused.
That is gone from workingmen in Cali
fornia. In its place has come a knowl-
edge that it is possible for working
men to exercise their political power
in such way that reflex from tina
political power may be felt in the
lives of workingmen and their fam
lilies.
Whooping it up for office seekers
who are one thing on the stump and
another thing when they are making
people is thing Of the past with or
ganized labor in California The mar
who gets the votes of organized labor
these days is the man who remembers
the needs Of working people somewhat
longer than the earlier days of Mo-
venlber.

THE AMERICAN WORKINGMEN
AND THE WAR.

Behind our fighting army in
France is our great industrial army
here at home. Every worker, every
wage Garner, has a great opportun-
ity to perform a national service.
He can speed up his production of
material, he can economic in con-
sumption, and lessen the drain on
our resources, leaving the more for
our army and our allies, and with
the resultant saving by purchasing
Liberty bonds and war savings
stamps he can help finance his coun-
try at war.

are doing their duty-are, as Presi-
dent Wilson says, bearing their share

! PR0F|1EER|NG SHOULD STOP

From Milwaukee Daily News:
It is no surprise to the people that
there has been extravagant profiteer-
ing in the necessary supplies of the ma
ton. Those who have been paying
the price have long felt that the only
reason for such prices was that those
charging them have found that they
could get them. There has been lit
tie real cause under any of the much
talked of natural laws, to warrant
the prices the people have had to
pay. The pity of it is that most Of
the high profiteering reported to the
flour and coal, commodities under gov
eminent regulation and in charge of
the various government bureaus.
Now that the information is before
the senate there should be quick and
drastic action by congress. The
President has asked for action ar it
should be. forthcoming. And it should
have teeth in it, long, sharp and pow
erful teeth. The government that has
undertaken to protect the world for
democracy and that successfully, as
far as present indications show, should
protect its own people from extortion.
If that cannot be done does it not
tend to impeach the principle of self
government?
Whether this form of extortion can
be reached by taxing profits is ques-
toned by some. But price regula-.
ton, based on the costs Of doing bust
ness, would perhaps be more fair to
both the business and the people By
this method the big business with it's
great economies in production would
have little advantage over the smaller
business, save as honest competition,
permitted better marketing. Taxing
profits and price regulation together
would do the stunt
Be that as it may, even taxing away
the surplus profits from the profiteer
would tend to discourage him in his
greed, and at least the major part of
the SUMS extorted would 60 to gov-
eminent and pay for doing the peo-
pies work.
Something should be done and done
quickly. Justice should be given the
sacrificing people. They willingly
sacrifice for their government. They
should not at the same time be
mulcted for private greed.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1918-07-13
has not prevented profiteering.


An illustration of how deep-seated
and persistent is this evil is shown
by the way profiteers have used gov
eminent price-fixing to increase their
profits. The government was obliged
to fix prices on level that would al
low the more inefficient and poorly
equipped companies to live. This
level left wide margin of profits for
the efficient, highly organized and
well-equipped companies. They could
have shown their patriotism by pro-
ducing at a much lower price and
could still have realized fair profit
1nsetad they exacted the last pound
of flesh and insisted on getting every
cent of these prices.
The remedy every belligerent ma
ton in Europe has fisally had to
come to is the government operation
of the basic industries connected
with war production.
Profiteering is the most disloyal
and injurious activity that has
cursed the nation since the war
began. 1t is worse than unpatriotic,
it is ghOulish-it is the vultures of
war tearing at the wounded and
slain. Yet, for all that, it is the
normal mode of private business,
which is so conditioned that it can
not avoid always taking the biggest
profit possible. The remedy lies not
in furnishing individuals, but in in
creasing public control.
