WHEN THE FARMER STRIKES.

A spirit of deep unrest and wide
spread discomfort still prevails in this
country. For the second time within
a month q portion OF the Wisconsin
militia has been called out to deal
with a serious situation caused by Ia
Dor troubles and strike riots. At Ham
mond, IND, a number OF persons have
been killed in labor riots, and the situ-
alton still is menacing. At Boston a
large portion of the police force has
gone on a strike. while union labor
promises sympathetic strike that will
take $4,000 workers from their Jobs
and cause thousands OF others to re-
main idle. The coal miners are in
sisting on more pay and talking of
strike. Leaders OF the men employed
In the steel Industry declare these
workers cannot be restrained much
longer. and that this important indus
try may be tied up by a strike unless
something soon be done to satisfy the
workmen. Railroad shopmen and
other workers. who recently agreed to
wait a bit before further pressing their
demand for more pay. show an incli-
nation to revive their agitation for
higher wages. Even postal employees
at least some OF them-are urging
resort to a strike in order to obtain
more pay.
In the midst of all this disturbance
and unrest the farmers go on working
day IN and day out. in fair weather
and foul. regardless OF whether corn
sell for 81 a bushel or 81. But sup
pose that some day they should take it
into their heads to strike, and stop
the production OF food. what would
happen? One thing is certain; the
other strikers would be forced to go to
work at producing their own food.
And a strike OF farmers is not i'm
possible. They too are organizing
unions for mutual benefit and pro-
lection. Industrial workers will do
well to remember that otherS-can play
their game.

to open, a very large trunk, and prac-
tically new-that is, it did not look as
il 1t had travelled very far.
"Oh. how lovely!" I gasped. when
removing some tissue paper, 1 came
upon a pale blue satin evening dress.
In one corner OF the tray were Slip
