men and trainmen in numerous in
stances abandoned their trains and
service, especially in the Far West,
was badly crippled. Passengers were
marooned for days in small towns in
the desert regions and women, children
and invalids suffered greatly from
heat and lack of milk and ice. In
some cases the sending of relief trains
was prevented or delayed by the
strikers. The government, the railway
heads and the entire American public
were thoroughly exasperated by these
methods, and the brotherhood chiefs,
realizing the great mistake their men
were making. ordered them back to
work. The heads of the big four
still insist that equipment is so de-
generated that the lives of the train
men are endangered, and they were
pleased to read that President Hard
ing had written to Chairman McChord
of the interstate commits
sion insisting that the federal laws
relating to inspection of rolling stock
and safety appliances must be strictly
enforced. regardless of the public in
convenience which might ensue.
AS for the employment of armed
guards, the striking shopmen and their
sympathizers have by their actions de
stroyed completely the argument of
the unions. They have mobbed, killed
and manned many nonunion shop
workers in most cowardly fashion {;
they have set fire 20 shops; they have
torn up tracks. they have bombed
trains, and they have blown up at
least one railway bridge. Wherever
railway property and workers are not
well protected by armed guards or
state troops, acts of violence are per-
petrated. over and over again, In
scores of places, the striking shOpmen
are proving themselves to be brutes

Attorney General Daugherty that Red

ceedingly active In fomenting troubles.

BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD

~ NE of our great strikes-that of
~ the bituminous miners-was set
tied last week, partially, temporarily,
and after a fashion. The agreement
reached at Cleveland by the miners
officials and operators representing
perhaps 60,000,00O tons annual pro-
duction means there will be enough
o TO get through the fall and win
ter, though conservation and ration
ing probably will be necessary. But
the old wage scales and working con
ditions are to continue in effect until
March 81, 1923, which mean the high
prices for coal that have prevailed
for several years will be maintained
by the dealers. If they can do it, and
also that next April the disputes and
probably the strike will begin all over
again. To be sure, the agreement
provides for the creation of machinery
to avert further strikes and to bring
some order into the chaotic coal in
dustry, but the public must not count
too much on this.
Both the miners n the operators
claim TO have Won a victory mt
Cleveland. the former because their
wages and work conditions are un-
changed, and the latter because the
miners signed agreements with lndi-
vidual operators and also because the
tribunals to be set up solve the issues
revolving around the question of ar
bitration, which the miners oppose.
The agreements were with opera
tors of all the bituminous states ex-
cept Illinois and Indiana, but the pros
poets for resumption of mining in
those two states also was excellent.
Already tine coal p%roiteers are get
ting in their work. Senator Borah
OF Idaho called this to the attention
of the federal fuel committee and an
nounced his intention of seeking legis-
lation to check them. At the same
time Fuel Distributor Spencer asked
the railroads to refrain from competl-
tive bidding for coal. tine result of
which had been to force the price
above the limit set by Secretary Hoov-
err. II was stated in Washington that
President Harding would ask congress
to pass Legislation giving the federal
fuel committee legal powers to con
troll the distribution and regulate the
price of coal as n safeguard against
hardship and profiteering. 1t is quite
evident that unless the government
does come to the rescue, the settle
ment Of the coal strike will be an ex.
pensive thing for the consumer.

GREEN MANURING AIDS SOIL
Organic Matter ls Added, as Is Nitro
een--On Poor Land Turn Under
an Entire Crop.

Green manuring means turning
under suitable crops to enrich the soil.
Such crops may be turned under green
or when ripe.
Green manuring adds organic matter
and, directly or indirectly, nitrogen to
the soil.
Leguminous crops are most desira-
BILE for green manuring, since they add
to the soil nitrogen gathered from the
air in addition to the organic matter
which they carry.
Besides the nitrogen In the legumes
turned under, an additional supply Of
nitrogen is fixed In the soil by the
action of bacteria, using the carbon in
the organic matter as a source of en-
ergy.
Turning under an entire crop is adj
vised only when the soil is poor and
for the purpose of starting a rotation.
Turning under catch crops or winter
growing green crops is an economical
and successful method of supplying
nitrogen.

Harness should be washed and

It and leave it In a warm place for "a

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.D
In order to compare the grease and
dirt contents of various woods and to
improve woods in these respects, the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture has devised n new method for de-
greasing and washing dirt from sam
pies. In the course of this work ii was
found that samples from the side of
the fleece are best for the purpose as
the contents Of dirt and grease in this
part are closely related to the average
for the entire fleece.
Washed With Gasoline.
In the method for determining
grease, as now used by the depart
ment, the samples are washed three
times with gasoline, which is drained
off through u filter paper that retains
all foreign matter. 1t has been found
that this treatment leaves only OF
per cent of grease in Rambouillet wool
and only OBS per cent in wool of the
crossbred sheep used.
Dirt is taken out of the samples by
washing with soap and water. The
wool is cleaned well if the water is at
a temperature between 40 and A. de-
grees c.. which is not hot enough to
feit the wool.
