LAY CONCRETE PLANS
FOR PEACE BETWEEN
CAPITAL AND LABOR

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-Delegates
to the second industrial conference con-
cluded their first weeks work today.
confident that substantial progress
had been made toward a program for
harmonizing relations between capital
and labor.
1t is the tentative plan now to con-
tlnue holding ten and perhaps twelve
executive sessions a week up to De
cember 10, by which time it is hoped
a preliminary draft of the conferences
recommendations will have been fin
ished. Recess then will be taken over
the holidays.
On their return the delegates viii
have available the result of investiga-
tons by experts into various phases
of the industrial situation and viii
hear the opinion of representatives of
labor and capital on the preliminary
draft. Using this new information
the conference Will redraft their rec
concentrations and submit them to the
I house through the press, hoping to OBJ
tain constructive criticism before the
| final report is prepared.
While definite conclusions were not
reported on any of the questions be-
lolt the conference II was SdlQ llldL
the delegates regarded the first week 5
work as highly valuable. Stanley King
4 of Boston summarizing the results, de-
1 clared the conference had reserved the
/ procedure of the first conference and
/ was proceeding first to the discussion
\ of machinery and methods" rather
than to enunciate a set of principles
The subject has been divided into
/ three phases as affecting workmen in
the service of the government, public
utilities and private industries. AS re-
CARDS men employed by federal, state
| or municipal governments and by pub
lie utilities the conference is discuss
ing whether there is a right to strike
and what machinery should be set VI
to adjudicate grievances.
The right to strike has not beer
questioned in the case of men employed
in private industry, SO that the only
discussion there has been is the estab.
lishment of machinery to prevent the
tremendous economic loss due to stop
page of work. 1t was said that the
conference had a clear feeling tina
something must be set up fair to al
sides, to take the place of the strike
but what plan will be recommended
| still is undecided.

trict officials and mine committee

not defendants, resumed work of pro-
ducing coal after the federal court at

NEW TRAFFIC LAW
GOES INTO EFFECT
IN PHOENIX MONDAY

The city of Phoenix has issued a
list of lenses and devices identical
with the list issued by the motor We
hicle department of the state of Cali
fornia In discussing this list with
Traffic Officer Anderson he made the
following statement:
"The motoring public is requested
to read the list carefully in order that
any of the lenses or devices used com
ply with the list as to maximum can
die power used and particularly as
TO those requiring rotating and tilt
ing of beams, this being most essen
tial.
''Benefiting by the experience of
the traffic officers OF the state of Cal
ifornia who have been enforcing this
similar law in their state. the gem
eral opinion as expressed by them
is that clear prismatic type of lens
is far superior to any of the diffus
ing types, nearly all of which require
fitting or rotating and both, and for
that reason may easily get out of or
der, and they cause more dissatisfac
ton to the motoring public than the
clear prismatic type.
THE desire of all motorists is to
haya all the headlight possible and at
liit lllllC eliminate NA1I
This result is best attained by the
use of clear prismatic types of lenses,
which require no fitting of brackets
and no rotating. Practical demon
STATIONS have shown that the clear
prismatic types of lenses give a much
better road light than the diffusing
types.

sary TO have these devices put on in
strict accordance with the adjust
ments as issued by the city, the main

"The first list of eight lenses select
/ ed by the city were all of the clear
| prismatic type and endorsed by the

relating to lenses will not become eff

The ordinance will be strictly en-

are especially cautioned in the mat

DAIRY TALKS
Proper rationing of
dairy cows brings rich
returns during winter
season Protection
Sc
against inclement weather of great
assistance in producing butter fat.

This is the season of the year when the real
ly good dairyman asserts himself. During the
summer months when there is plenty of pas
ture, "Old Spot" and "Brindle" succeed very
well without a great deal of attention; but
with the coming of winter there follows the
necessity of feeding and sheltering the cows
so that they shall continue to produce butter
fat in paying quantities. Of course the dairy
man who has planted winter pasture is re-
lieved of a considerable amount of feeding,
but growth in cold weather is necessarily
slow; hence the acreage required to provide
pasture must be much greater than is really
profitable, at least, if the pasture is used as
The principal fodder.
The dairTman who would secure the very
best results has provided ensilage and hay,
but he does not imagine that the highest pro-
duction of butterfat may be secured without
a concentrated ration to go with the hay and
ensilage. Fortunately the dairymen of the
Salt River Valley can secure cottonseed meal
and cake at the mills with no transportation
expense, and by utilizing well balanced
ration ne is able to keep his cows up to a good
state of production during the period when
butterfat brings the highest price.
Suitable shelter for milk cows and cows
coming fresh should be provided, for it is "a
well known fact that permitting cows to be
exposed during cold, rainy weather is dam
gerous and expensive as well.
Present indications would point to higher
prices for milk and fortunate are those who
have it to SELL
There are large number of high grade
heifers freshening in the near future, and
these should be taken excellent care of, so
that they will be in good condition when they
"come in" A poorly nourished COW can
scarcely bring forth strong healthy offspring,
neither can normal flow of milk be expected
Great care should be taken of the udder
and teats of the freshened heifer and in case
of trouble it may be necessary to call in
veterinary, though usually the dairyman is
able to prevent any complications.
Now is the time to embark in the dairy
business.
Let this department assist you in getting
into the dairy business.
Our farm experts are practical men who
'KNOW BY DOING" lust how best to care
for stock and arrange crops, buildings and all
other farm matters. They will be glad to as
sist any farmer or dairyman free of charge.

The world outdoors IS white with

UP a glad and brave hooray. The frost

terms: it is more precious than our
rolls; for it's the stuff that kills the
germs and makes the microbes hunt
their holes. A mortal loses all his pep
when blistered by summer sun; he
tolls along with weary step and feels
as though he weighed ton. A slight
exertion makes him groan, he's always
in grouchy mood; in every sinew,
every bone, he feels a beastiy lassitude.
Eut when the autumn frost appears
and eager winds his whiskers nip, he
rolls his shirtsleeves to his ears, and
looks for some one he may whip The
Ianguor of the summer time, the wear
mess OF sizzling heat, no more oppress
him when he'd climb around the town
