a Strictly Home Enterprise.

The general public should know
that the Montero G Brande Bottling
Works Of this city, manufacturers of
Coca-Cola and high-grade carbonated
drinks, is a strictly home industry,
employing only home boys; that it's
force is efficient, and it gives the
very best service and the closest at
tention to business. It's office system
of checking to avoid mistakes is I'M
der the supervision of competent
accountant. The plant has been in
operation one year, and the fact that
there is a continually increasing de-
mand on the part of the trade for the
goods turned out by it, and that no
complaints have ever been made is
strong evidence that it's products are
giving general satisfaction.

CUPID TO PRESIDE AT FAIR.
Girls Skilled in Cookery Capture
Eligible Bachelors.

Eligible Bachelors.
Cupid, the God of Love, will pre-
side as patron saint over the prize
jellies, jams, breads and cakes to be
exhibited at the South Louisiana
Fair, October to 9, at Donaldson
vile.
Fair statistics just compiled by the
international Association of Fairs
and Expeditions. and received by Sec
rotary R. S. Vickers of the local fair,
prove that the eligible bachelors are
most easily captured by girls skilled
in the art of cookery. Be she pretty,
or plain, the girl who wins the honors
with her bread has a chance at the
same time to win a score or more of
marriage invitations.
Breeders of pure-bred stock of all
kinds who exhibit their stock at lead
ing fairs always obtain a higher price
Tor their sale stuff than those who do
not exhibit, according to statistics
compiled by the same organization.
That is the reason why farmers in
t!erested in nure-bred stock are send
Ing in so many entries to officials of
the fair, according to Secretary
Vickers.
Educational features do not over
shadow the entertainment features at
the coming fair. The big attractions
include auto racing, horse racing,
fireworks, music, vaudeville and a
midway show. It will be the biggest
gala week of the year.
Prizes for all kinds of educational
exhibits are offered by the fair.
Detailed information will be sent to
anyone writing to Secretary Vickers,
asking for it.

Juicy fruit pies present unexpected
difficulties to the home cook owing
to their tendency to become soggy.
Specialists in the experimental kitch-
en- of the United States Department
of Agriculture have found, in the
course of pastry baking experiments,
that if the undercrust is prebaked I'M
til slightly brown, the pie will be
much better. Another point brought
out in connection with pastry making
especially in warm weather is that
speed in handling is an important fac
tor if the housewife does not wish her
dough to become soft and consequent
ly difficult to roll and lift.

Sugar from Hawaii

A cargo Of 10000 tons of raw
sugar was brought from Hawaii to
New Orleans by the steamer Arizona,
said to be the largest shipment that
ever entered that port. The sugar
was consigned to the American Sue-
ar Refinery. The ship attracted
much attention both because Of it's
size and the fact that it brought sug-
ar from the PARKWAY Hawaiin Islands
to Louisiana, the greatest sugar cane
producing state in the union. The
cargo consisted of 100000 bags
weighing 125 pounds each.

LEADERS NOT REAL
REPRESENTATIVES
Vice President of Pennsylvania Rail-
road Declares they Do Not
Really Represent Employees.
(sy The Associated Press..

CHICAGO, March 21.-Brig. Gen. W
w. Atterbury, vice-president of the
Pennsylvania railway and former
chairman of the railway executives
labor committee, took an emphatic
stand against national agreements
which he termed prolific of misunder-
standings" in a heated au-day cross
examination before the railroad labor
board today.
Questioning by Frank P. Walsh,
counsel for the unions, brought vigor-
Gus replies from General Atterbury
and time and again the witness re-
piled by questioning his interro-
gator. Charges that the union leaders
did not really represent the employees
and that national rules were used to
procure employment for more men and
extract money from the railroads on
technicalities were hurled across the
table as the general took the stand
against all rules of national applica-
ton.
The gist of General Atterbury's tes-
timony today may be summarized
thus:
Rules should be negotiated between
officials of the roads and their own
employees across the conference table,
like game of poker"
The eight-hour day could not be uni
versa1ly applied to all employees, espe-
cially train service men, because the
Lord didn't build the railroads that
way
The establishment of the hourly
basis of shop work has destroyed the
energy and initiative of shop employees
and abolition of piece-work would be
the most dreadful thing that could
happen to railroad employees"
National rules constituted a dog
collar around the necks of the rail-
roads, which would be free to nego-
tiate their own rules with their own
employees the minute the board cuts
the dog collar"
General Atterbury was referring to
a cartoon from a labor paper repre-
senting national agreements as COL
lar on a dog labelled railroads" and
led by labor" Two charges against
union officials were laid down by the
general in the climax of the days tes-

THREE MILLIONS
FOR RANGE COWS
Railroads Pay Immense Sum for Kill

BARLOW, March 21.-(SpeciaD-
Three million dollars is the sum the
Seaboard Air Line, Atlantic Coast
Line, Florida East Coast and other
railroads operating in Florida have
been forced to pay out in the past five
years for killing range cattle and
razorback hogs. Added to this is the
heavy loss caused by wrecks resulting
from running over catt1e-and to this
the loss of human life.
A prominent official of the Seaboard

replied
Gen. Atterbury maintained through
out the day that no set OF rules could
be negotiated which would have a ma
tional application and declared the
only satisfactory way of agreeing on
rules was by direct conference between
the officers who would apply the rules
and the employees whom they would
affect.

earlier in the day which declared the
American people had reached "the
parting of the ways"

the other road to industrial peace
and the continuation of that individual
initiative energy and responsibility
which is peculiarly American. The
signboard on one road is national

tiate directly with your own en-
ployes'."
General Atterbury declared he had
no fight with organized labor as such
and said that within reasonable lin
its, is is healthy spur to bring about
fair conditions" He enumerated six
points which he said the employee has
a right to expect and the employer
should provide: AS steady employment
as possible; a good wage; time for
recreation; opportunity to elevate him
self in his employment; voice in de-
termining the rules and regulations
under which he works; the right to
be, or not to be, union man.

by cattle roaming on our tracks. which
resulted in death to several employees
and serious injury to Others"
"These three millions We're paid out
by the people, not by the railroads"
declared Mr.. Brown. 1.-The railroads
cannot operate without profit, so when
they have such losses they must be
made up in traffic charges. In other
words, the railroads stock bill is, of
necessity, the public's meat bill. Shall
the people of Florida continue to pay
such tribute to the range cattle men of
the state? 1t is the duty of every pro-
gressive Floridian to insist that his
legislators submit the question of
abolishfng the free range to vote of the
people at the general election in No
vember."
