WORKING MEN UNIONIZE

Gale A. Plagman, Vice Pres. of the
Trade and Labor Assembly of Min
neapolis was in the city Tuesday and in
the evening spoke to large number of
working-men at Schell's hall. The hall
was literally packed and standing room
was at a premium.
Mr.. Plagman knows the whole history
about the street car strike in the Twin
Cities which has already led to two riots
In St. Paul. According to his statements,
the Twin City Rapid Transit Co. has
never in this trouble been willing to
meet the issue fair and square and the
State Administration and the Public
Safety Commission have not given the
strikers fair deal. He is authorized
to collect money for the relief of the men
who are out of a job.
In this connection, Mr.. Plagman made
the statement that it was practically an
AN impossibility for any of these men
who had gone out on strike, to get a
job somewhere else in some other line
OF work. AS soon as it is found out that
they belong to the strikers, they are
let out if they have job and when they
are asking for one, some pretext is found
for refusing to give them employment
This is what he characterized as the most
outrageous treatment that any wage,
Garner can be subjected to.
A local Union was perfected which is
to embrace all the laboring men of the
city and over SO became members, pay.

THE RED CROSS NURSES OF EUROPE
ARE GIVING TOASTED
CIGARETTE C TIE EOYS

TO anyone who doesn't know of the
wonderful advances that have been made
in the preparat: n of smoking tobaccos
in the last few years it may sound strange
to speak of toasted cigarettes.
Strictly speaking, we should say ciga-
rettes made of toasted tobacco; the smok-
ers of this country will recognize it more
readily by its trade name, LUCKY
STRIKE the toasted cigarette.
The American Tobacco Company are
producing millions of these toasted ciga-
rettes and these are being bought in
enormous quantities through the various
tobacco funds conducted by the news
papers of the country and forwarded
through the Red Cross Society to the boys
in France.
This new process of treating tobacco
not only improves the flavor of the tobacco
but it seals in this flavor and makes
the cigarettes keep better.
The Red Cross nurse is always glad to
have cigarette for the wounded soldier,
as, in most instances, that is the first
thing asked for. -. =

GASOLINE ON FARMS CAUSES
: - - s FIRES

Increasing use of motor gasoline
engines by farmers throughout Mime
sofa is also bringing increasing fire
hazards to the farmers home.
George H. Nettleton, Assistant State
Fire Marshal, says in a review of this
subject that Minnesota has or will have
before the year is far advanced approx
metely 100000 automobiles or gasoline
driven trucks, many owned by farmers.
In addition to tEe-e, TIE modern
farmer in Minnesota is adopting more
generally gasoline engines for pumping
water, operating cream separators and
washing machines.
Another dangerous hazard which has
been brot to TIE attention Of this de-
partment, is TIE habit OF farmers leaving.
automobiles in sheds adjoining barns
and adjacent to the house. This is a
d nge-ous practice; automobiles should
be kept in specially built garages at a
safe distance from other buildings.
Although the general use of TIE
gasoline is increasing, little has been done
by tie farmer to minimize the gasoline
fire hazard. Tie farmer usually buys
in large quantities and keeps his gasoline
supply in she'd nearby and some
times in the barn itself.
This is dangerous practice and
may lead not only to fire loss but
to actual loss of life. TIE safest method
is to adopt some underground storage
system but, if this is found impracticable
to at least store gasoline away from all
other buildings.

CORN TESTS SHOW
LOW TERMINATION

In November, December, and Janu-
airy the Minnesota Seed Laboratory at
University Farm, St. Paul, tested for
termination large numbers of seed corn
samples sent in by farmers and seeds
men. The results, says Robert G. Dahl
berg, who is in charge of the laboratory,
represent quite accurately the condition
of the corn being considered for seeding
purposes. A few of the samples repre-
sent seed of the previous year. They
are included to show the quality Of all
corn which can be drawn on for seed.
The average termination of 702 sam
pies tested was only 63 per cent. Ap-
proximately 200 samples, or 81 per cent
of the total, terminated below so per
cent. OF the remaining 442 samples,
those terminating so per cent or better,
the average termination was found to
be approximately SO per cent. It may
safely be said then, that 81 per cent OF
the corn which is considered for seed
ing purposes has an average termination
of less than so per cent. If better corn
can not be secured, such corn can, of
course, be used for fodder purposes,
seeding an extra large amount to the
acre.
The foregoing figures serve to empha-
size the rather poor condition of the
seed corn crop, and the fact that special
efforts should be made to save every
bushel which shows good termination.
The seed laboratory urges all farmers
who are not able to earliest their corn
to send in samples of two or three
hundred kernels for testing. This SER
vice is performed free Of charge. Sam
pies should be sent directly to the Seed
Laboratory, University Farm, st. Paul,
MINI.
