NEW ENGLAND MILLS
ARE on 48.HOUR BASIS
At Lawrence the Textile Operators Are
Striking for S4-Hour Pay and
As Hours Work.

Boston, Feb. 3.--0peratives in textile
mills in many sections of New England
were working to-day on a basis of As
hours week a reduction of six hours
over the schedule which had long been
in effect. In most cases the reduction in
working hours has been agreed TO by the
manufacturers with the stipulation that
the operatives should receive AS hours
pay and time and half for overtime
work. In centers where the request for
the shorter hours had not been granted,
workers generally had been instructed
BY their leaders TO report as usual but TO
quit after they had completed eight
hours work and TO continue this play
day by day.
In only one city, Lawrence, did the
operatives hold out for the same scale Of
wages for the shorter week as had pre-
vailed under the former 54-hour schedule.
Lawrence, Mass, Feb. 3.-Textile op-
eratiyes in large numbers joined in a
strike to-day to enforce demands for 81
hours pay for As hours work under the
new weekly schedule which had been
generally adopted by mills here. The
strike. however, did not develop the gen
eral demonstration that some leaders
had predicted
Picket lines were established about
many of the mills, but there were no dis
orders
Except two or three plants which are
operating on curtailed schedules all the
mills opened under the new 4s-hour basis
week. This change, although accompa-
MED by a reduction in pay, met the de-
mands of several unions, including the
mule spinners and weavers, and they did
not join in the strike.
Springfield, Mass, Feb, 3.-Ihe only
development to-day in the textile situa-
tion in western Massachusetts, was at
Easthampton, where the West Boylston
company posted notices placing the mills
on a 4s-h0ur schedule with As hours pay,
No move has been made by the Dwight
or Chicopee manufacturing companies in
Chicopee by either employees or manage
meuts to reduce working hours and the
same is true of the Indian Orchard com
pany in this city. The Ludlow Manu-
featuring Associated mills are operating
3Tth hours a week, though the company
has granted the 4S-hour week with As
hours pay, subject to improved business

children and her death has caused
grief throughout the community. She
was young woman of unusual abil-
ity and sterling character.
Miss kirkland was daughter OF
Mr. and Mrs. ]. A. Kirkland and was
the oldest of four children. In add

Chairman Murphy Appeals to the Cit
izcns to Take Advantage of the iAp,
preparations Made for. Their High
ways Before the Bad Weather. ~,
DAILY Herald, Oct. H.

The county highway commission
cannot create labor. 1t would not be
able to import it and doubt such a
policy, even il it were possible. But
it is equally true that roads cannot
be worked and repaired without labor.
Even with the best of machinery we
must have oprators." These state
ments were mad this morning by
Chairman John II. Murphy, of the
county road commission.
"This very shortage of labor, lack
of cooperation on the part of the cit
liens explains very largely the differ,
ence in the amounts that have been
expended in the several districts OF
the county. In the districts where
large sums have been expended we
have had the labor, the citizens have
co-operated and in many instances
the amount of money paid out by the
county gives no adequate idea OF the
value OF the labor that has been done
on the roads. We have had some very
liberal contributions.
But in other districts where little
money has been expended we have not
been able to hire foreman and il we
had secured them it would not have
been possible to obtain labor. 1t is
getting late now. The bad weather
season is fast approaching. We real
ize that what is done on the roads
ought to be done without any further
delay and am therefore again appeal
ing to the people on the roads that
have not been worked to get togeth-
er and expend the appropriation that
the board is anxious to. make.
There is some money for every
road in the county. If it has not been

that his company would allow the city
or angspther promoters the privilege
of removing the improvements Off

they decide to do so.
Mr.. Dale stated further that his
company were only too glad to house
the mules over night and would do 1t
at very small cost. Mr.. Dale stated
that it was true that a number OF the
livery barns had been abandoned or
turned into automobile garages, but
that there was no occasion Tor alarm
upon the part Of any one about the
ability Of Columbia taking care OF all
the mules that were brought to the
city.
This is tho biggest street mule
market in the world, and we have the
best stock yards, the largest and most

Improvement during the month Of
September, as reported by G. l.. Nor
ris, field agent bureau of crop esti-
mates, United States department of
agriculture, and the condition on Oct
I, is rs per cent of normal, compared
with 81 per cent the ten year average
The rains of the last few days of Au-
gust and Sept. 81 and %, did much to
improve late paintings; the western
part of the state, where the majority
OF the crop is late, shows up much
better, and with frost of average date
will mature fair crops, in other sec
tons of the state where the crop was
earlier and the rains not so good
there was some deterioration
The apple crop is very short this
year and there will be but few for
wiuter keeping. An unfavorable sea-
son has greatly curtailed the clover
seed crop. Pastures in most parts of
the state are in fair condition for the
time of year, but in few of the dryer
sections they are exhausted, and feed
ing has been resorted to, stock water
having to be hauled in some places.
Cowpeas and soy beans though
mostly late planted have done reason
ably well, but the lateness of these
crops will necessitate their being used
chiefly for hay and soiling, and there
may be a shortage in the seed crop.
| THE sorghum crop will be below the
past few years, when SO much demand
was made for sweets, the acreage is
smaller and paintings generally late.

accommodations for the mules that
are brought to Columbia, and that
unless, something was done that Co

heartily favored prohibiting automo'

ing sums: County, $9,263.45; schools,

Judge Whitthorne makes the graft
flying report that since the last ses-
sion of the county court he has paid
and retired of the floating debt SILL

the balance now on hand he can GO
through the year without any further
borrowing.
During the past three months road
taxes to the amount of over $4,000
have been collected. Of this sum $12,
1856 was collected by the trustee as
Communication or head tax and $33,
108.06 was collected by the county
court clerk from taxes on vehicles.
The sum collected from road taxes
does not include any property tax col
lected by the trustee. 1t is the major
portion of the revenues from the
wheel tax and the Communication taxes
which have largely all been paid. II
is estimated that the property tax OF
twenty cents will produce approx
mately $4,000 of road revenues sc
that the total will run around $75,00(
