THE HUsBANDMAN
: < X X < \ 4 X x X + 4 < = =

The farmer milks the lowing kline,
ard carries grape juice to the swine,
the kind of dope they like; he starts
70 work ere break of day, and plugs
along till dusk is gray. and hasn't
time 10 strike. He stands in need OF
shorter hours, more time to sleep in
cozy bowers, more time to rest and
read; but he can hear the horses
neigh for bundles of refreshing hay,
the mules for fodder plead. The old
gray mare is beastly sick, the collie
makes her roll and kick, and stand
upon her head; and so he nurses her
all night, until she's feeling we'll ana
right. instead of being dead. He has
to hunt a missing ow. or saw the
antlers from a COW, so she won't hook
again; he has to crawl beneath a crib
and spoil his tucker and his bib. to
find a setting hen. The farmer has
more cause to strike than Jonathan
and Pete and Mike, who In the cities
live; but he has many chores in view.
and wa1k-out stunts would never do
no profit would they give. But IL the
farmer struck, ah, me! oh. whore
in bitten would we be. and where
would we get off? There'd be no
bacon and no beans, no flour or meal
or helpful greens, no skim milk In
the trough. If Ger the farmers or
ganize, and strike as strike the other
guys, there'll be a frightful deafth;
and we'll fold up u weary limbs
and heave a sigh and close our glims,
and just fall off the earth.

ORGANIZED

IDEAL is defined in dictionaries as a standard of perfec-
: tlon, beauty, moral or physical excellence. Ideals
mould the character of nations and of individuals, even
though never attained. Whether the ideals be lofty, or
lowly, they are reflected unconsciously. All that is fine
and worthwhile in life is due to ideals, and all that is
mean and contemplate is due to- lack of ideals.
Ii the ideal, the standard of perfection, of an organ
lzatlon is high, the organization is a worthy one. AS long
as organized labor was governed by such ideals, seeking
the abolition of excessive hours, wage scales sufficient for
comfortable existence, improved environment, and in
creased efficiency In its ranks, organized labor received
the public support from fair thinking men that enabled it
to win its battles against the greed and avarice Of indus
trial autocrats.
These preliminary ideals having largely been realiz-.
ed, we find many labor organizations adopting sabotage
and the consequent destruction of industry as their new
ideal" To quote the language of the tailors union as an
instance:
Be it resolved THAI. whereas the ideal of the j. T. i. of A., together
" win tn other bo wOr Rset1 has been zen to- to q large gee extent realized; namely, the idea
strive, and whereas this new goal has by ali progressive organized work

sS ORIENT a afs h MorR5 Pe's o u sels sx on 0H record soDra a a favo s% the the ~ ultimate nate
a week, and pledge ourselves to do all in u power to eonsunmate this
Should the 5-day week of 6-hour days be adopted, the
next logical Ideal" would be a still shorter period of work,
with eventually no work at all. In some mysterious way,
the worlds work is to continue without work and indus
Try prosper without industry. By some subtle process the
creative genius and organizing brain which makes indus
try possible is to be replaced by the Drawn of the hour-a-
day idealists.
Suppose the pilgrim fathers had landed with such
ideals at Plymouth Rock--intent on a 30-hour week and
full pay--how many centuries would it have taken to set
tie America? Suppose our farmers would strike for such
ideals--how long would it be until famine eternally seal
ed the mouths Of the demagogues of labor? How long will
it be, anyway, with labor lowering its efficiency and cur
failing its output before universal bankruptcy destroys in
|dustry and uniionism along with it?
Any organization that adopts such an economic fall
:acy as sabotage as a standard of perfection, has outlived
ITS usefulness and gone to seed. Is there no program in
TINS imperfect world of sorrow to remedy and better hui
manity's condition other than organized ~lazyness?
If labor unions, admitting that they have reached the
long desired goal Of reasonable hours, and adequate pay,
have nothing more to strive for, no other vision save that
OF sabotage, they have lost their vitality and will soon be
numbered with the things that were but are %not---for
there is no place in this busy world for universal ~lazyness.
