Threaten to Strike
 If Prices Are Not Cut

Little Rock, April 25-The hotel committee of the International Fed i eration of Commercial Travellers, according to information received by the local committee today, has
 decided 30 days strike against hotels and cafes which have refused to recognize and pass on to the travelling public the benefits Of the general reduction in commodity prices incident to the deflation. The bulletin announcing the strike, says in part;
 "Traveling men all over the coun- try have reached the conclusion, and rightly so, that the prices charged by hotels for rooms and meals have reached the peak, and it is time to call strike The travelling fra ternity has the same weapon with which to wage warfare upon the hotel proprietors and hotel corpora tions that the general public used in refusing to purchase wearing ap- parel and shoes at prices which they thought unreasonable and out of proportion.
 Therefore. in order to help you and your fellow travellers, the hotel committee of the International Fed eration of Commercial Travellers or ganization urges the recipient of this letter to refuse to patroniZe such hotels as are charging or. asking ex- orbitant prices for rooms and food. This letter is being sent to 6OO,OOO travelling men and each and every man must do his part, for only in union is there strength and only by the concentrated efforts of the army of 600,O0O of your craft can it be expected to get results. Therefore, it behooves every man to help break the wall of high prices by patron izing cheaper hotels and restau- rants"

SOME GARDEN LOGIC"
(BY c. Woolsey.l

Don't destroy the weeds and grass in the garden-vegetables like com pany.
 Don't thin the vegetables-othel plants might die of grief for theil lost comrades.
 Don't fertilize your garden-tht plants might overbear and thus make an added expense in harvest ing.
 Consume all of one vegetable be fore planting more. This will give you plenty of time to create an ap- petite before more are. ready to eat
 Shake all the soil off the roots of cabbage and tomato plants and allow them to dry several hours ir the sun before planting. This caus- es more of them to die and thus decreases the expense of cultivation
 Don't spray your garden. This would prevent tfe development of insects and disease. We must live and let live. Of course, nothing is said of. which side plays the hog.
 Don't cultivate your garden af- ter each rain. Too much moisture might be conserved and the chickens would not have a wallowing place during dry weather.
 Plant your tomatoes in the Tight of the moon," even if the soil is puddled with water. The moon will take care of everything.
 Plant poor seed. Good seed pro- duces too many plants and it takes too much work to set out so many. Plant varieties that were raised in the Sixties" These are not so good as the new ones and the hired man will not eat so much of them. Of course, those that are left over can be fed to the COW.
 Don't work in the garden very much. The plants like solitude and will die if hnadled too much.
