Not alone must the farmer
have good roads, the chance for
study at agricultural colleges,
a liberal education on the prac-
tical treatment of farms so that
farming may be made a paying
profession, but he should have
a greater representation in our
legislatures
Above all, we must give the
farmers the chance of marketing
his goods at a profit as all bus
inesses that sell to him expect
to make a profit.
Let us aid him by making a
true vision possible.
If we fail to do this, farming
must naturally decline, and the

A CHRISTMAS WALK

In silvery softness the anthem closed
Like a slowly senced bell;
The sacred calm of peace divine
Like a benediction fell;
And out on the morning light that spread
A glimmer of amber gray,
| walked with Margery home from church
On an old, old Christmas Day.
bland. mild day-for the rugged month
Had chosen kindly mood,
Like a wonderful mellow aftermath
From the Autumn's plenitude.
With scarcely a tang of wholesome cold
Did the Winters breezes blow
AS Margery walked from church with ne
On Christmas long ago.
The earnest words that had touched our
hearts
The warnings, kindly and wise
Had left shadow of tenderness
In Margery's violet eyes:
The merry. hoydenish maid I'd known
For twelvemonth's flying space.
Had taken on that old Christmas Day,
A new and womanly grace.
AS through the tremulous opal clouds
That shifted and swayed apart,
A sun ray lighted the rosy face,
The wish was born In my heart
That down the trail of the unspent years,
Whatever their trend might be,
The soft-eyed maiden beside me then,
Might walk to the end with me.
Absently watching the velvet flakes
By the white gale set awning,
I breathe the spirit of other years
While the bells of Yuetide ring;
And near me, smiling with happy eyes
At our childrens romping play,
Is the girl who walked from church with
me
On that old sweet Christmas Day.

LESSON OF CHRISTMAS DAY
Example of Christ Should Inspire Un.
selfishness and Make Us Try to
Remedy Faults.

Christmas should inspire a world of
unselfishness. The example before us
is almost too perfect, for 1t rather
frightens us to attempt such divine
heights of self-abnegation, but we can
try. 1t will at least take US from the
depths of selfshness, where most of us
now are. Each Christmas day should
teach us something of the lesson OF
the Holy Child's life.
II we could learn from Christmas,
today and in the succeeding years the
serious lessons of self-betterment and
ennoblement 1t has to offer, how in
finiteIy better it would be than just
to look on it as holiday for gifts and
feasts, for extravaganza and foolish
ness.
SO take an hour or two off on
Christmas day and give 1t up to retro
spectiye and self-inspection. You VIII
each find faults, if you judge yourself
impartially, for no one is perfect. Then
make a serious determination to try
to overcome those faults, for only try
ing to improve is there any growth in
character. If you are satisfied with
yourself YOU stay Just as you are with

THE FARMER AND THE
HIGH COST OF LIVING

The farmers is the worlds
greatest buyer.
The farm is the bread basket
of the world!
The farmer needs the support
of every thinking person right
now.
Agriculture was the worlds
first occupation. And it will sur
vive and the the last, in case
others cease.
The world must be fed.
Agriculture is the only free
trade on earth.
Investigation during the war,
when we were told that we had
to curb our appetites, showed
that the reason for high price of
food was naturally, it's scarcity.
It showed alarming acreage had
been deserted.
One great reason, besides the
high cost of labor, was the gen
eral exodus of the rural popula-
ton to larger centers. Teachers
preachers, lecturers and journal
lists pointed out to the youth OF
the farm the possibilities of the
city, so that they might become
powerful and influential in the
eyes of the world. Cartoonists
added fuel by depicting the far
mers as "rube" or g hayseed'
ignorant, easy and equipped
with the chin whiskers of a goat
until the sensitive boy longed
for the day when he could go to
a big city.
This made the supply of food
less and the price higher.
In passing, let US say that it
is the city man who shows his
ignorance when he visits the
farm.
The man hardest to- wake US
ually is most active when he
once gets his feet under him.
And the farmer is gradually
but quickly, becoming aroused.
Agriculture is about the only
balsiaess-for it is a business,
if not a science-that is not or
: gained The day is surely
coming when this cannot be
said.
Before the farmers Of the u
nited States can produce two to
four times more per acre than
they do now, as some European
countries had to do to keep a.
live. they must be assured of at
least as decent an income as the
city man is getting today, or
they will have to let the cities
feel the pinch of hunger.
The farmer will be the last t.

Leather
Retailers Laying in Stocks
OF Travelling Bags for
the Summer Trade

Retailers Of leather suitcases and
travelling bags are now in the market
buying stock for the summer trade,
which they expect to be greatly in ex-
cess of last year. The wholesalers are
busy, but retailers declare that they
are between seasons and sales are
small. During the last year, however,
they have been selling as many suit
cases and bags as in any other year,
despite the fact that prices are on an
average about 200 per cent higher
than they were in 1914. Now it is i'm
possible, they say, to buy a good
leather bag for under $40. while the
consumer, in most cases, is looking for
better grade article.
This demand for the higher grade
cases and bags prevails throughout the
country, and the sales records show
that while purchases of expensive and
cheap imitation leather bags have in
creased, there is marked reduction in
the call for the moderate priced ar
ticles.
Trunks which in most cases are
carried by dealers as allied lines to
suitcases and travelling bags also have
increased close to 200 per cent during
the last few years, but there has been
no apparent diminution in the sales.
Prices have not advanced very much
during the last few months, say the
dealers, but the labor situation at the
factories is so unsettled that no proph-
cies can be made on the future trend
OF costs.

Pig Iron Makers Upset
Many Furnaces Expected to
Blow Out Within Fortnight

The pig iron trade is greatly upset
over the recent reduction in prices of
$4.25 a ton. Many blast furnace oper-
ators say that they will not be able to
continue production at the new prices
because of high costs, and q consider
able number of merchant furnaces will
blow out within the next two weeks.
Production at present is greatly in ex-
cess of demand, which has not been
stimulated as yet by the reduced
prices.
Eastern Pennsylvania furnaces will
continue to sell iron on a Pittsburgh
basis, thus making the quotation for
No. 2 X iron at Philadelphi $31 90 a
ton, while basic iron is being quoted
at $685., delivered in the Philadelphia "a
district Buffalo furnaces will sell +. o.
b. furnace, thus making their delivery
price at New York or vicinity 40 cents
q ton lower than from eastern Penn
sylvania furnaces.
Consumers are clamoring for revi-
sion of contracts to the new price
basis, but a majority of Eastern pro-
make no such revision. Two important
Northern iron interests and one in the
South have anpounced, however, that
all of their contracts will be revised.
Those furnaces which cannot afford to
make tho revision will go out Of blast.
British inquiry for pig iron is again
in the market, amounting to about 100-
600 tons, including an inquiry from j.
p. Morgan & Co, for 25,000 tons of
hematitc iron.

NEW BEDFORD, April The i'm
proved demand for colored cotton fab
RIGS Is refected~in the announcement
made to-day that on Monday morning
the Iron Works Mills Of the American
Printing Company, of Fall River, will
operate on the basis of six days a
week. Last Monday these mills, except
that known as No. 4, started on five
day schedule, after having operated
since March - at the rate Of three
days a week.
While the print works Of the cor
poration are still working on five day
schedule, it is said that production,
owing to overtime operations in a num-
her OF departments, is nearly equal to
that of a day week.
The American Printing Company is
credited with having 4S5,28S spindles
in all of it's mills, this representing the
largest single textile enterprise in this
section.
The resumption of business on the
basis of operations that prevailed prior
TO November II last is accepted as an
indication of returning prosperity for
New England's textile mills, which have
been adversely affected by poor trade
ir. the past few months. 1t is presumed
that the smaller corporations will soon
follow the action of the American
Printing Company.

custom tailors Of the country should
take steps to advertise their products
to the public, and to clinch the argu-
mcnt he advanced in behalf of advertis-
ing he instanced the success of the
manufacturers of ready-to- wear gar
ments. Mr.. Crumrine asserted that
only 10 per cent of the men of the
United States wear custom clothes and
he stated that by advertising the mer-
chant tailors could increase their bust

Cloak and Suit Workers
Submit Demands of Union

There are indications that difficult
ties are ahead for the committees rep
resenting the employers and employees
in the cloak and suit industry who are
sitting in conference over new terms
to be written into q labor agreement
to supersede the present pact, which
expires next August.
The demands made upon the en-
ployers by the union are drastic and
alomst impossible of realization, ac-
cording to members of the Cloak, Suit
and Skirt Manufacturers Protective
Association. Louis Wizard, executive
manager of the association, yesterday
made public the full list of demands
presented by the international Ladies
Garment Workers Union at the initial
conference. He refused to comment on
the demands except to say that pre-
vious reports concerning them had
been incorrect.
Some of the demands of the union
are as follows:
"Complete recognition of the union,
all union help, all help to be furnished
by the union, eight months full time
work per year, inspection of books by
union officials, double pay for overtime,
ten holidays a year with pay, no con-
tracing or subcontracting within the
shop and no home work"

JewelI'y
Large Consignment From
London Fails to ReIieue
Rough Diamond Shortage

One Of the large importers of
precious stones yesterday received a
consignment of rough diamonds from
London valued at about 100000, ex-
elusive of duty charges. This is the
largest shipment received here in some
time, but it is not expected to have any
great influence on the present situation
in the diamond cutting business. Cut
ters of precious stones find it difficult
to obtain enough material to work on.
and several of the smaller concerns are
said to be closed or working only on
short time. This condition is reflected
IN the diamond setting branch of the
Jewelry industry. Diamond ring manu-
facturers have more orders on hand
than they can fill, owing to the short
age of stones,
The scarcity of diamonds is not a
new condition, but it is holding greater
interest IN the general iewelrv indus
try every day. The principal cause for
the shortage is the lack of labor at the
mines in South Africa controlled by the
De Beers interests. 1t is said that al
most sixth of the working forces Of
these mines were killed in the war.
while an additional five thousand men
died during the influenza epidemic that
ragged through South Africa This loss
of man power naturally reduced pro-
duction.
During the war the United States
was practically the only diamond mar
ket that remained active, but with the
end Of hostjlities the European coun-
tries were relieved of the restraint
that prevented them from buying
precious stones. They are now pur-
chasing available stocks in large guam
tites, so that instead of this country
being the only one in the rough dia~
mond market it is meeting with COM
petition from about six others.
An interesting explanation of the
heavy purchases Of diamonds in Hol-
land is offered by an importer here.
He said that as a result of the pro-
posed law in Germany confiscatng all
earnings during the war exceeding 200,-
600 marks many Germans were going
into Holland and buying diamonds to
conceal their investments. While the
value of the mark is a perplexing ques-
tion in Holland, the diamond dealers
have no difficulty in disposing of their
stones at prices that they consider ad-

Head of National Board of Trade Now Making
Systematic Investigation of Markets in South
American Countries British Dealers Also Active

A MEXICAN jewelry manufacturers
will soon start q systematic and
active campaign for trade with the
South American countries and Cuba.
They have been encouraged in this
move by the amount of business done
with the Latin-Amcrican dealers dur
ing the war when they were cut off
from their European sources Of sup
ply. S. w. Rosenthal, who at the
suggestion of the National Jewellers
Board Of Trade has been investigating
for the government the jcwelry and
silverware markets in the southern
countries, is expected to return next
month. When he files his complete
report the manufacturers will have
some tangible basis on which to start
their drive for export business on a
large scale.
Progress has already been made in
establishing American jewelry and
silvcrware in the trade on the South
American continent, according to Fred
c. Backus, secretary of the board of
trade. Mr. Backus has been keeping
IL close touch with the activities Of

American jewelry manufacturers
are really just awaking to the possi-
blities Of foreign trade" said Mr..
Backus yesterday. at remained for
the war to bring home most forcibly
just what could be done in the South
American countries alone Prior to
1914 the jewellers of this country only
secured about 8 per cent Of the Jew
elry business in South America. This
was largely because our government
was not particularly active in helping
them in going more energetcaly after
foreign trade. Within the last two
years we have considerably increased
our trade relations with South Amer
ica and Cuba, but the market is onlv
scratched, as it were. The informal
tion that has been provided US through
the efforts of Mr.. Rosenthal will be Of
invaluable assistance to our industry
