Keeping Grades Separated.
/. Grade your hay according to COM
mercial standards rather than local
ideas.
2. Load cars uniformly and invoice
correctly.
8. Choose markets carefully relative
to their demand for the kind Of hay
to be marketed.
When baling from the stack. hay on
the top or sides that is weather dam
aged should be raked or cut of. The
hay near the ground at the bottom of
the stack also Is generally damaged
too much to be baled with the good
hay. Special care should be taken In
trimming the stack to remove all dam
aged or stained hay. A little Of this

heavy discount. whereas Il can usually
be used on a farm In place Of hay
which win bring better market price.
When the hay has been baled and

quality, II should be loaded into the
cars with equal care as to grades. II

loaded but should be segregated and

to invoice the hay exactly. stating the

EMPLOYERS BLAMED

Trenton, N. J.-Acting as arbitrator
in the building trades dispute, Attor-
ney Martin p. Devlin placed the blame
for waste on employers, and refused
to accept the claim that workers are
stacking.
"At the hearings it was conceded
by ALL" said the arbitrator in his de-
cision, "that the government contracts
with the builders during the war were
based on the cost plus system, which
encouraged ineffciency and caused
large expenditure of time and money
regardless of the labor returned for
the same Such conditions demoraliz-
ed the efficiency of the building trades
and was largely due to the employers.
1t is now admitted by the employers
that on the general average the men
are performing a days work equal to
the years preceding the war and that
the unions give the employers the
right to discharge any man who is
either incompetent or inefficient. This
leaves the remedy entirely in the
hands of the employer"

BECCARLY WAGES
In Texas Mills Arouse Dal-
las News Editor

Dallas, Texas.-Statemen at the
recent A. F. of L. convention that
wages of from 81 to SO for 60-hour
week are paid in southern cotton mills
have aroused the Dallas News editor.
''Is the establishment of the mill
industry in the south worth the price
of reducing human beings to a wage
scale of 81 to So a week under pres
ent conditions?" he asks.
"The statement may have been err
roneous 1t is to be hoped it was.
There are always possibilities of that
sort. But, however that may be, the
publication of these figures is basis
for considering whether the lowered
social values which will come of
sweated industry brought into south
ern life will not cost US more than it
will profit US. Could anything COM
pensate for the consciousness that we
prosper even in part by the blood of
child workers or the slow exhaustion
or the lll-fed and underpald!
.'The suggestion is a challenge not
only to the social conscience Of the
south, but to the inventive genius
and industrial management of the
country If the cotton mill cannot
exist without cheap labor of the sort
that is never cheap, it is time that the
cotton mill owner be converted to de-
cency and proper regard for human
happiness If the cotton mill cannot
run without the exploitation of pow
erty, the south will be better off with
out it. If, on the other hand, the
mills now in the south are being run
with vanton refusal to accord to the
workers their reasonable wage, it is
time to find out why"

"ARS0NS AND KILLINGS"

WORKERS IN MINGO COAL STRIKE
Coal Owners Aut0cracy Shown By Senate Probe Which
Brings Out Miners Were Discharged
When They Joined Union

Washington. - "Organized mine
workers are band Of robbers and the
Baldwin-Feltz detective agency is an
angelic institution" was the song of
attorneys for West Virginia coal
owners before the senate committee
on education and labor that is in
vestigating the Mingo county (W.
Va.) lockout.
In answer to these wild generaliza-
tions the miners proved that when
they joined the union they were dis
charged, although a state law pro-
hibits such action by the coal owners
The law was further violated by the
importation of gunmen who boasted
of their "arsons and killings" The
state laws requiring coal to be
weighed and the placing of check
weighman on each tipple have never
been obeyed in this field.
r. H. Kirkpatrick, former mine
foreman for the Burnwell Coal and
Coke Company, testified that mine

TYPOS WINNING
LATEST BULLETIN SHOWS PRINTERS SLOWLY
BUT SURELY GAINING THEIR FIGHT FOR
FORTY-FOUR HOUR WEEK
Men Working Pay Ten Per Cent of Their Wages For
Strikers Benefits

In the last 44-hour bulletin, mum
Der 9, issued by the international
Typographical Union, it states that
there are at the present time strikes
in effect in the jurisdiction of 22O
unions, in some of which one or more
offices have conceded the 44-hour
week and scale settlements were
made after strikes had occurred.
The number of members, together
with apprentices, who are now on
strike and drawing benefits are: Sin
gle, 1912; married, 5,733; apprentices,
932; total of 1907.
The international Typographical
Union is paying strike benefits to
these members in the following
amounts: Single, $12 per week; mar
ried, SIT per week; apprentices, such
amounts as are agreed upon by the
officers of the local unions when they
are asked to join the strikers.
In addition to the above amounts
the international has been paying spe-
cial assistance to local unions in the
sum of SIS per week for each person
on the strike roll This $5 per week
is for the use of the local union in
conducting the strike or for expendi-
ture in such manner as the union, or
those in charge of the strike in jur-
isdiction, may deem best for the bene-
fit of the organization. In many in
stances the amount is added to the
strike benefits paid by the Interna-
tional Union
This involves an expenditure by the
international Union of an average of
$40 per week for each person on the
strike roll. A few figures will indi-
cate that this amounts to nearly
S800,000 per month in strike benefits
and regular assistance alone Further
than this, the international has found
1t necessary to grant special assist
ance in some cases for extraordinary
expenses which could not be foreseen
by either international or local off
GERS, the necessity for which expen-
ditures comes up as the campaign is
carried on.
On May \, or since, strikes took
place in the jurisdiction of AZ unions
that have since secured complete ad-
justment and are working under A
hour contracts and scales Interna-
tional Secretary John w. Hays says:
This will give to the members
some idea of the immense amount of
money necessary to carry this 44-hour
campaign under present conditions.
The printing business at this time is
at the lowest ebb it has been for many
years and as a consequence the earn
ings of those members of the union
who are employed under 44-hour con-
ditions and in newspaper offices are
not up to the standard, and therefore
the receipts from the 10 per cent as
sessment are not as large as many
members believed they would be-
Were business in the printing indus
try normal, the 44-hour fight would
be ended within a short time We
can hardly expect to achieve complete
success, however, until business does
pick up and it becomes necessary to
have competent men in the offices to
execute work promptly.

In The american Federatlonlst
With the approach of Labor Day
it is necessary that there be a stock
taking and making of plans for the
future work of our labor movement.
American labor, on its day of cele-
bration and commemoration this year,
must give to the world a message of
hope, of courage, of determination and
of constructive thought.
The forces of destruction and of re-
action have made every possible on

ideals and its practical purposes the
attention of all wage earners. The
observance of labor's great holiday
should be SO ordered in every commun-
ity as to drive home the message of
trade unionism and to carry to all
hearts and minds the thought that
the organized labor movement is the
great movement of workers for hu-
man freedom and progress.
The trade union movement is dedi-
Gated to the proposition that auto
cratic control of industry must be de-
stroyed in order that there may be
full development of human freedom
and in order that all men and women
may have voice in the determine
tion of their destiny.
This is purpose worthy of the
best effort of a great age-earning
population. 1t is an ideal to fire the
souls of men. 1t is the great task of
This task, this great constructive
effort for human democracy enters
into modern industry only through
the organization of the workers. Au-
to cratic control with all of its bru-
tality and injustice, remain in full
flower where there is no organization
of labor.
The greatest contribution which the
members of our movement can make
today to the cause of human progress
is the unrestrained giving of effort
in the work of organization.
Set Labor Day as the day upon
which our greatest effort is to begin.
Set Labor Day as the day upon which
we cease holding the line and begin
to move forward in great resistless
wave, Upon that day let there be
demonstrations, let there be great
gatherings of the workers. Let there
be inspiring public addresses and dis
tribution of the literature of our
movement. Let there be everywhere
enthusiastic celebration of Labor Day
In those communities where lately
there has been an abandonment of La
Dor Day demonstrations let there be a
revival of them. Let there be a full
utilization of every proper means of
carrying to the great masses of our
wage-earners the necessity of trade
unionism, and from that day on let
the work of organization go on with
such a vigor, such an intensity and
such an inspired purpose as our move
ment has never known.
1t is the hour for action. Rally the
forces of labor everywhere for the
great forward movement. Bend every
energy TO the work of organization.
Through organization our movement
will achieve every good purpose and
through organization will be defeated
every selfish, greedy and undemocrat-
ic purpose of reaction.
The voices of the defenseless call
upon US. The eyes of the downtrod-
den are turned toward us. The tide
of progress waits upon our effort.
Men of labor, be up and doing!
Organize the unorganized. Unite and
federate the organized in solid pha-
lanx. Men of labor, be up and doing.
March forward and upward to the
goal of justice, freedom and human
ity!
