ed in the experiment. all weeds being
kept down and the average yields Of
the different plots determined. Deep
cultivation six 20 eight times during
the season resulted in an average
yield Of 56.2 bushels an acre and
deep cultivation three 20 four times
gave an average yield Of Sci bushels
an acre. Shallow cultivation three
to four times gave an average yield
Of 5j.s bushels an acre. Cultivating
six TO eight times by the shallow
method resulted in an average Of 55.5
bushels an acre. On plots where no
cultivation was done but where the
weeds were kept scraped of with a
sharp hoe the average yield an acre
was 52.9 bushels This method Of
keeping down weeds was not TO be
recommended because Of the labor
and expense connected with it and
was practiced TO only further deter
mine the need for cultivation.
The deep cultivation was about
four inches as deep as is practicable
with a two-horse cultivator. while the
shallow cultivation was about two
and one-half inches deep.
IL shallow cultivation controls
weeds il is preferable because IL is
less expensive" said Prof. Roberts,
head Of the soils and crops depart
ment Of the station in discussing the
experiment" In deep cultivation
deep burrows should not be left be-
cause they may cause serious wash
ing Of the soil. One should not be-
gin by eultivating shallow and going
deeper as the corn grows larger but
one may begin deep and gradually re-
duce the depth Of the cultivation"

MOLDERS STRIKE
Charge Violation of Agree
ment by Black-ClawsOn !
Company

The molders at the Black & Claw
son Company struck on Tuesday
morning. The men claim that the
company violated their agreement
made with them last April, when the
old contract expired. They say when
this contract, which called for min
imum wage scale of 81 per day, ex-
pired, the company made PROPOSE
ton to pay minimum of $6 per day
for the following three months, and
that unless either side informed the
other at least thirty days previous to
the end of the three months of dissat-
isfaction on their part, the contract
was to continue.
This the company failed to do, but
instead, on July 1st the company noti-
fled the men of another cut to as low
as $500 per day. To this the work
ers object and say, while the agree
ment entered into in April was only
a verbal one, yet they feel the COM
pany ought to live up to the same as
they, the workers, would do.
The molders have tried in every
way % adjust the matter and come to
some satisfactory understanding, but
this having failed, on Tuesday morn
ing they packed their tools and left.
The molders further say that the
action on the part of the company is
but movement toward individual
bargaining. One of the part bosses
told several men that they might as
well come in to work, that unionism
was done in that shop. The men,
however, say not.

RETAIL CLERKS
Meet and Arrange to Do
"Bit" on Labor Day
In Future Members Will
Wear Button Showing
Standing

The Retail Clerks Local Union held
an interesting session on Monday
evening at the labor temple. Several
matters of much Importance to the
craft came up; not the least was a
communication from the international
secretary stating that in the future
monthly buttons will be issued to the
members in good standing. This will
mean when one goes into store and
sees a clerk wearing one of the these
buttons he will know that the clerk
is paid up and in good standing.
There will always be doubt about the
fellow who doesn't display his but
ton.
Harry Warning, employed at the
Fischer Hardware Company, was mi
tiated into membership. Several new
applications were received
The clerks are to have charge OF
the gates at the fair grounds on La
Dor Day Secretary Fallert, of the
Clerks Union, is chairman of the
committee on gates, and he is asking
every one of his team mates to do
their "bit' on the big day. Every
one at the meeting Monday night sig
nified his attention of being there and
on the job. The gates are assured of
good attention.
