CALL UNION SHOP BY PROPER
NAME
By President Gompers

With some regret I have heard sew
eral men in our movement repeating
the false designation of the union
shop, as the opponents of our move
ment call it, the "closed shop"
Those who are hostile to labor cum
ningly employ the term "closed shop"
for union shop because of the gen
eral antipathy which is ordinarily felt
toward anything being closed, and
with the specious plea that the So
called "open shop" must necessarily
be the opportunity for freedom. AS
matter of fact you and | and any
intelligent observer know that the
union shop is open to all workmen
who perform their duty, and that they
participate in the benefits and ad-
vantages of the improved conditions
which union shop affords.
The union shop implies also duties
and responsibilities. This is incident
to and the corollary of all human in
stitutions.
In our country. citizenship implies
not only rights and privileges; it also
imposes duties and Obligations, and
from these no good citizen has the
right to claim exemption.
On the other hand, the so-called
"open shop" is indeed the closed shop,
closed to workmen who have the in
telligence and the manhood to realize
that they, acting as individuals, can
not hope for the redress of a wrong
or the attainment of a right. Men
who understand their duty to them
selves and their fellows, unite and
associate for the betterment of their
conditions, and to secure that right
and the justice which are so essential
ly theirs.
We have the right to expect that
our friends, and particularly our own
members, shall speak of the union
shop by it's proper name. We shall
persistently content for it; we shall
achieve it.

LIBERTY AND LAW

According to one of our contempo-
raries, "iberty consists in the power
of doing that which is permitted by
the law" But this definition is al
most as worthless as knife without
blade. Liberty preceded every law
as society existed before the political
state was organized.
Our fathers held that liberty was
one of the inalienable rights with
which men were endowed by their
creator, and that governments were
instituted for the purpose of safe
guarding those rights, including
liberty.
Don't let US forget those things.
Don't allow our rulers and lawmakers
to forget them.
| The law is not the source of liberty.
The law is meant to be an instrument
of liberty. The law is not meant to
restrict liberty, but to guard it and
defend it.
In the economic sense liberty is
the right and opportunity of every
man to earn his daily bread without
being compelled to pay tribute to
anybody for this inalienable right.
And the foundation of all liberty is
mans right to produce his means of
life and enjoy them.
In the political sense liberty is the
effectively exercised and unabridged
right of a people to make its own
laws and establish institutions in ac-
cordance with it's own interests.
The sovereignty of the people is
the source of political liberty as it is
also the source of the law. The ob
iect of liberty is the well-being of the
people, and the object of the law
ought to be the safeguarding of
liberty.
Every autocrat ruler might sub
scribe to, the theory that liberty con-
sists in doing that which the law per-
mits, for he is the maker of the laws
which he recognizes. In an autocracy
everybody enjoys the liberty to do
what the autocratic lawmaker permits
him to do. But no sane person will
call that liberty.
Absolute monarchies had their laws
by means of which the activities OF
the subjects were regulated, and there
liberty was the right to obey the
monarch or his tools.
In a democracy worthy of the name
political liberty consist in the right
of the people to be their own law
makers. But this right is without
any real value if it is not exercised
and liberty is merely an illusion
where the people have lost all effec-
tive control over their delegated law
makers.
Words are merely symbols, but
there are many among US who cling
to words while the things these words
stand for are taken from them. Thus
while we make much of the word
liberty and use it strenuously fo1
various purposes, the real thing is
escaping us.
We talk about liberty while we pay
tribute for the right to make living
and in many cases that right, the fun
damental right of our existence, is
denied US.
And we talk about liberty while we
have lost the law-making power ano
find ourselves at the mercy of un-
scrupulous politicians, ignorant legis-
lators and judges who make them
selves the willing tools of private in
terests.
Our liberties are restricted
Abridged and curtailed by the laws
I'M, ,,cscd upon US. and higher still
than every law, more powerful thar
our liberty, more sacred than our in
alienahle rights, stands the injunc'
ton by means OF which autocracy has
tee;: reestabllshed in our formerly
democratic community.

Intestinal Worms Very
Harmful to Iowa Fowls

Many Iowa fiocks are being ruined
through the prevalence of intestinal
worms, according TO R. T. Parkhurst,
poultryman with the extension divi-
sion of Iowa State college. Such
worms cause nonproduction, lack Of
growth and oftentimes death, besides
making the birds susceptible to other
poultry ailments.
Birds affected with worms will be
come thin, despite a good appetite,
and after while grow listless and
dull. This Is especially the case
where overcrowding occurs, as with
large flock and small poultry house.
The best method to get rid of these
worms is to feed the chickens tonic
made from IL quarts Of mash, either
dry or wet, mixed with. one pound Of
epson salts and one pound Of dry
sulphur. Give them daily for three or
four days sll they will clean up in ten
or fifteen minutes.
1t is a good plan to see that all
refuse Is removed from the quarters
and sanitary conditions are provided.

Better Lambs Campaign
Is Winner in Kentucky

Kentucky Is leading the eastern
sheep-producing states in campaign
to eliminate the "bucky" lamb, accord
ing to reports to the bureau of agri-
cultural economics Of the Department
Of Agriculture. This is the third season
that the campaign has been carried on
by the state extension agents and. as
result II Is estimated that more than
100000 locked wether and eve lambs
will be marketed from Kentucky this
year. The high quality Of these lambs
already has attracted the attention OF
many eastern buyers, who are going
into the state and buying direct from
the producers instead OF waiting for
the lambs to arrive at the central mar
kets. A number of public auctions
have been held, with the highest bid
frequently within so cents per 100
pounds of the top at the leading east
ern markets the same day.
Losses from docking and castration
have been very small. The greatest
advantage from eliminating the
"bucky" lamb, according to members
Of the trade and marketing specialists.
is In reducing the number of seconds
and culls in the market receipts. 1t Is
estimated that from one-third to one
half more lambs can be handled in the
future than are now sold. because Of
the improvement in the supply.

Potatoes Particularly
Valuable for Fattening

Potatoes are particularly valuable
for fattening pigs" says Austin A
Dowell. livestock extension specialist
with the University of Minnesota.
'sThey should be cooked, the water
discarded, then mixed with grain at
the rate of three parts potatoes TO one
part of the concentrates. Prepared In
this way they may be fed literally 10
fatten pigs or sows with filters. Raw
potatoes may be fed in limited quanti-
ties to mature and idle brood sows. II
fed to pregnant sows, they should be
cooked and fed in relatively small
quantities"
Mr.. Dowell says that raw potatoes
are often readily eaten by cattle,
horses and sheep. Fed In large quan-
titles 10 dairy cattle they are likely to
faint the milk and produce a white
salve-like butter. Another reason why
potatoes should not be fed too freely.
says Mr.. Dowell, is because they con-
tain a poisonous material called sOlan-
inc. The sprouts carry this substance
In relatively large quantities and
should be removed before feeding.

Emden-Toulou Cross Is
Favored for Holidays

The cross of the African gander with
common geese is considered excellent
This mating gives larger goslings than
common stock, and they make an at
tractive carcass when picked. The
Rhode Island experiment station made
some experimental crosses Of geese.
The results are:
1.-The Emden-Toulouse would appear
to be the best alkaround cross for gen.
eral purposes for both early and late
markets, and especially for the produc-
ton Of large geese for the Christmas
and New Years markets. They are
large, hardy and, when dressed, pre-
sent a fine appearance. The Emden-
African cross seems to be next in de-
STABILITY, and If goslings are sold early
in the summer or before they are eight
weeks old, this cross would be prefer
able to all others. The Emden-White
China cross picked the easiest Of these
crosses, the birds were white when
dressed and, although small, presented
the most attractive appearance"

FEDERAL LAW ON HUNTING
Prohibits Shooting of Migratory Fowl
After Sunset-South Dakota
Hunters Face Arrest

Hunting migratory game birds is
permitted under federal regulations
each day during the open season from
half an hour before sunrise 70 sun
set. Persons found hunting between
sunset and half an hour before sun
rise are liable TO prosecution in fed
eral court under the provisions of Reg
ulation 4 of the migratory-bird treaty
act regulations. A state law recently
passed by the legislature of South Da-
kOta provides that waterfowl may be
shot half an hour after sunset. The
biological survey of the United States
Department of Agriculture points out
that state legislatures may pass laws
to give further protection to migra-
tory birds, if such laws or regulations
do not extend the open seasons for
such birds beyond the times prescribed
by the migratory-bird treaty-act regu-
lations. Although the state law per-
mits shooting from sunrise TO half an
hour after sunset, person so doing
may be arrested and prosecuted under
the federal law, administered by the
Department of Agriculture.

When Pullets Begin to
Lay Get Them Into Coop


Experienced poultrymen have found
mat If pullets are allowed to remain
very long on the range after starting
10 lay, the change to winter houses is
sure to check them and may cause a
fall mott.
Cornell backs them in saying that
as soon as the first eggs are found on
the range at least a third or a fourth
OF the best-developed birds should be
placed in winter quarters.
When the remaining birds show ma
turity, they should be put in winter
quarters also.
a thorough cleaning and dlsinfect-
Ing OF the houses and pens In which
the pullets are to live is advocated.
mis- Is especially true If the birds
that formerly occupied the building
have been diseased or have had worms.
Artificial lights should not be used
on pullets until they have had a
chance to respond to normal condi-
lions. If they do not respond quickly
enough, or If neck mott starts, then
light can be used with good effect.
Many locks Of pullets take cold
after their removal to winter quarters
because they are kept in tightly closed
houses. All windows and curtains in
the front Of the houses should be wide
open night and day until really cold
weather sets in. Even In the middle Of
the winter, the cloth curtains should
not be entirely closed.
Lack Of ventilation causes dampness
in the houses and this, in turn, results
In colds and roup.
