Special Dispatch to THE New York HERALD.
GREENsBuRG, Pa. April 3.-There are
$1,000 non-union miners in southwest
ern Pennsylvania. and Of these not
more than 1000 are on strike, despite
statements to the contrary made by
union leaders.
The union has failed in its effort to
persuade the non-union men to walk
out, the only strikes in the section
between Morgantown, w. Va, and
Greensburg being on the edge of the
Connellsville coke district, where en-
ployees OF the Allison mines of the
w. J. Rainey Coke Company, and two
mines Of TIE II. c. Frick Coke Com
pany, Steel Corporation subsidiary,
walked out.
No miners struck in the Greensburg
basin, or the Mount Pleasant, Latrobe
and Ligonier fields. These cover
Westmoreland county. where union
organizers were killed many years
ago.
President John L. Lewis Of the
union announced in Cleveland last
week that organizers would be sent to
Greensburg. They arrived here, but
apparently were unsuccessful.
Non-Union Mines Busy.
The miners union has thrown Its
whole organizing power into this sec
ton, where the operators believe their
mines form the last bVlwark against
the walking delegate. Mines in West
moreIand county ran so per cent. OF the
time last year compared to tho approxi-
mately 30 per cent. operations of the
/ Fairmont union Geld. Consequently
the non-union miners. with pay about
30 per cent. lower than the union scale.
actually. made more money on the
average. s@
Seven non-union mines along the Nor
gantown and Kingwood Railway contin-
ued to run to-day without interference.
Some of these belong to the Bethle-
hem Steel Company. which like the
steel interests in the coke region far
ther north. does not recognize the
union. There was no report of disorder
in any of the four counties visited.

MAKE cow RATION TEMPTING
Animal viii Not Do Well on Food
That Is Not PaIatable-Ayold
Any Sudden Change.

The good dairy ration must be at
tractive. A COW Is a self-respecting
sort of animal and she likes palatable
food. In fact, a cow will not do well
on food that isn't palatable. and 1t
should be remembered that tie condi-
ton of the food has the most to do
with Its palatability. Moldy grains or
roughages do not appeal to the appe-
tite Of the cow, and consequently are
unsatisfactory. Thus the unsatisfac-
tory feed, no matter II 1t does contain
the proper elements, may cause a re-
duction in the milk supply due to the
cows unwillingness to eat a PLENTY to
keep up a good flow Of milk.
At the same time it must tie recog-
nized that it Is not a wise idea to
change a ration suddenly In order to
make it better. Acow is a pretty dell
cate sort of a m%iIk-producing machine
and, especially If she Is a large pro-
Queer, sudden changes in the food are
quite likely to upset her in one way or
another, and the result will be- q loss
Of milk.

FIND NEW RACES Of sKUNKs
Two Hitherto Unrecosnlzed Types
Have Been Described by the
Biological Survey.

Two hitherto unrecognized geo
graphic races Of skunks of the genus
Conepatus, the hog-nosed type, have
been described by the biological sur
vey Of the United States Department
Of Agriculture. This general kind of
skunk ranges for the most part from
southern South America north to
southern Arizona, where it reaches its
northernmost limits. One Of the two
new forms, known Is the Arizona
hog.nosed skunk, is found in southern
New Mexico and Arizona; the other,
the Nelson hog-nosed skunk, is native
to Mexico.
The fur of the %hog-nosed skunk Is
not so valuable as that Of the ordinary
black skunk owing to the poorer tex
ture and to the fact that the tall and
much of the back are white. This
type Of skunk Is better equipped for
roofing than others because Of the
greater length and strength OF Its
snout, and 1t is probably useful In the
control Of certain insects.

pressing hay into bales became COM
mon it was difficult and expensive to
transport this feed except to the extent
of loading it on wagons and hauling
it to a nearby town or city. AS a re-
suit, the matter of supply and demand
was quite largely local, and frequently
there was wide variation in prices Of
fered in different localities.
With tho coming Of the hay press,
it was possible to put hay into bales,
which were easily handled, greatly re-
ducing the space required for a given
amount of hay, and making 1t possible
to transport hay for long distances at
costs which were. not prohibitive.
A recent investigation shows that In
some states as many as ten per cent,
or more, Of the farms are equipped
with hay-balers and In many cases
the hay that is stored and used on the
farm Is baled because Of the increased
economy in storage and the con-
venience in handling.

dren a quart a day, while a good
COW yields enough to give 20 children
a quart a day. The supercow, and
there are more and more Of them in
this class each year, gives enough milk
so that a small herd of them might
supply this quantity to all the small
children In a small town..
On It's farm at B%eltsvllle, Md, the
department has six cows, the result Of
Its breeding work, that have pro
duced an average Of more than 1900
pounds of milk in 365 days. This little
herd Of six big producers yields
enough milk to provide ITO children a
quart a day. One Of them could sup
ply nearly 80 children, or six times as
many as the ordinary COW could take
care of.
Good breeding, first, and good feed
Ing, second, have made the difference.

Somebody Mapped in Toll
bert Case.

Washington, Dec. 9.-There l.
much interest in political circles
lere in the news that Judge H. H
Watkins has designed a Democrat Is
marshal of the Western Federal Dis.
5rict of South Carolina instead of Jo-
seph W. Tolbert, Republican nation
al committeeman who has held the
place under recent appointment Of
the president until the recent special
session of Congress adjourned.
It was assumed by those who were
watching the situation here that Toll
bert would be kept in Office by a re-
newal of the recess appointment on
the special session which was followed
in a few minutes by the regular ses-
sion. Somebody seems to have been
caught mapping, so that the tenure of
Tolbert was allowed to lapse.
An interesting fact is that under
the law Tolbert can not receive any
pay unless he is confirmed by the
Senate. If the vacan which he was
appointed to fill had ,rred when
Congress was not in . he would
have been entitle1 ,nder the
statute until the enl flowing
session of Congress or until rejected
at that session. But Tolbert was first
nominated to the Senate which failed
to act and then he was given a re-
cess appointment. The law provides
that such an appointee shall not be
compensated until he is confirmed by
the Senate. Assuming that the pres
ident will again send the name of
Tolbert to the Senate, the appointee
of Judge Watkins will hold the place
until March a, unless Tolbert is con-
frmed. If Tolbert is not confirmed
at this session he can be given anoth-
err recess appointment after March
a and reinstated in office but cannot
even in that case receive any pay I'M
til he is confirmed by the Senate.
Hence. from whatever angle the case
is viewed, the prospect as to the a
shalship looks very meagre so far as
~. ~,
the Republican national committee
man from South Carolina is con
cerned.

USE DI%SINFECTANTS
TO PREVENT LOSSES
Sanitary Terms Are Explained for
Benefit of Laymen.
Condensed information Prepared BY
Department Of Agriculture for
Those Farmers Who Misun-
derstand Correct Use.

prepared by the United States Department
Of Agriculture.)
Pointing out that an insecticide lS
not a dependable ~disinfectant and that
there is a wide difference between an
antiseptic and a .deodorant, the United
States Department Of Agriculture en-
phasizes the use Of the right prep
aration in disinfecting premises. San
itation is especially important in
preventing losses from animal diseases,
and, along with attention to cleanli-
ness, d%isinfectants are frequently nee
essary, especially after an outbreak OF
a contagious disease. Here Is con-
densed information on the subject,
prepared as q result Of the depart
'ment's experience in advising persons
who misunderstood the purpose and
correct use Of disinfectants.
The word infected" means con-
taminated with or affected by disease
germs; "disinfected" means freed of
disease germs. A "disinfectant" is a
product that destroys. disease germs
or renders them harmless. An anti
septic" Is q substance that prevents
the development and growth of disease
germs. but an antiseptic is not a disin-
fectant unless it is capable Of de-
stroying disease germs In addition to
preventing their growth.
A disinfectant Is not necessarily an
"insecticide," for some powerful dis
infectants IRE relatively harmless for
insects and the best insecticides may
be Of little value as d~isinfectants.
Formaldehyde is one Of the most
powerful ~disinfectanta known, but 1t
Is a very weak insecticide; and, con-
versely, h%ydrocyanic acid Is deadly for
insects and all forms Of animal life,
while 1t has little power as a germi-
eide or disinfectant. 1t is we'll to
remember also that "deodorants" are
not necessarily dislnfectants-one de-
stroys odors, the other destroys germs.
No single disinfectant Is appropriate
in all cases. Select the proper SUBJ
stance, apply literally, allow ample
time for the dasinfectant to do Its
work, and remember that success de-
ponds in large part upon the care and
exactness of the person who prepares
and applies the disinfectant.

METHODS FOR EGGS
Mcthods Adopted by California Corn
munity Result in Better Health
of Laying Flock.

A mortality Of less than 10 per cent
for the year among hens entered In
TIE egg-laying contest of Sonoma coun-
", California, last year is reported to
the United States Department Of Agn-
culture by local extension workers,
who worked out the feeding formula
used in the contest. The health rec
ord of the hens entered and their lay
ing average of 176 eggs per hen for
the 364 days have led many poultry
men to adopt the management and
feeding methods used in the contest.
1t is estimated that so per cent of the
poultrymen Of the county have
changed their method of feeding dur
ing the last five years, due to e1terl-
sion work influence.

KEEP FEED UTENSILS CLEAN
Average Farmer Is Liable to Grow
Little Careless About Pals
in Summer.

Wide-awake dairymen realize the i'm
.portance Of keeping calf feeding uten-
sils scrupulously clean at all seasons
Of the year. The average farmer, how
ever, may grow a little careless about
the calf pail, especially during the
warm summer months. These pals
should be Of tin or galvanized iron,
never of wood, and should not be al
lowed to get rusty or battered. They
should be. thoroughly washed, rinsed
and sterilized after use. and kept in
a clean place. Never use calf pals
for feeding hogs, or live stock other
than calves.

vile, Md. The late moulters selected
from a flock of 100 Rhode Island Reds
in the fall of 1920 laid seven more
eggs per bird during their second year
than the original flock as pullets. They
were used as breeders the following
spring, and the first Red pullets to
commence laying in the fall Of 1921
were found to be the offspring Of these
late-moulting hens. Their pullets IN
a period of seven months have already
averaged about two dozen eggs per
bird more than the original flock.
But it is not alone in number OF
eggs that the late-moulters' progeny
excel, but also in the value Of the
product, as the distribution was more
even. a much larger proportion Of the
eggs being laid during the winter
months. In the last seven months the
daughters of the late moulters not
only averaged two dozen eggs per bird
more than the original flock, but the
value OF their product was, figuring at
the same prices, about S1!N per bird
more during the same period. 1t Is
expected that this margin will In

On Planting Young Trees.

On Planting Young Trees.
1. The growth made by a young
fruit tree the first year in the orchard
is more important in determining sue
cess than any other year in its his
tory.
2. The soil should be previously
prepared by deep blowing and pull
verifying as carefully as for a seed
bed.
8. If the soil of the orchard is well
prepared, holes to receive the trees
need be only deep and wide enough
to accommodate the natural spread
of the root system. In setting out
replants in an orchard, the holes
should be dug deep and broad
enough to cut back the encroaching
roots of surrounding trees to avoid
completion until the replant is es-
tablished.
a. Medium-sized, one-year-old trees
or well grown June buds are to be
preferred to older trees for trans
planting.
5. The roots of young trees should
be protected against drying out, by
avoiding unnecessary exposure OF the
roots to air in handling.
6. The roots Of young trees IRE
more susceptible than the tops to IN
injury from cold and should not be
exposed by handling during freezing
temperatures. A mere frost may kill
them.
z. 1t is better to cut the main
roots to six or eight inches il length
than to leave them long enough that
they may be bent or kinked in plant
ing.
8. Usually the tree should be plant
ed no deeper than it stood in the
nursery. New roots start more
promptly where the soil warns first,
near the surface. Most planters set
the trees too deep.
9. Compact the soil firmly about
the main roots to avoid drying OUT,
but do not bruise the roots in frming
the soil about them. Bruised roots
renew growth less rapidly and are
more subject to infection by root dis
ease. h,
10. Early winter planting, while
the trees are fully dormant, is better
than late spring planting, when the
buds are starting into growth. If the
planting must be delayed, the trees
may be kept dormant longer BY re-
moving them from the trench turn
ing them over, and again healing
them in.
II. Prune the trees to single
whips" by removing their side
branches, and cut back the top from
"a to 80, inches in height. If, however,
the nursery trees have strong lateral
limbs we'll spaced, the requisite num-
Der may be retained as the frame
work for the tree when it is planted.
