The International Unions, like all or gan1zed groups of people shape their at titudes, policies and functions by growth and experiences. New and unforeseen conditions may change them. A change in leadership, the spread of a new idea may produce a change i'll policy. What ever may effect the rhange, the American Federation of Labor IS without power to interfere.
 While primarily concerned with all phases entering into the employment re- latonship, such as wages, hours, condi- tions and terms of employment, these in ternatl6nal unions must deal also with vast range of problems of internal gov ermnent They deterfine conditions and qualifications of admission, the number of apprentices to be allowed, the desira- ble units of local government; the man. her i'll which mandates to the officers must be carried out; the relations which are to obtain with unions in similar occ1- patOnS, etc.
 The industrial unions are essentially militant organizations because at some time or other all are compelled to engage in tests of strength with employers. As a consequence each International Union has developed its own conception of in dustrial strategy. Thus the railroad unions use one type of strategy, while the
 
 printing trades unions use another.
 FEDERAL AND LOCAL UNIONS.
 While the American Federation of Labor is fundamentally and principally a federated body it IS also an organic body insofar as the organized wage earners are concerned when there are not a sufficient number of workers to be or rTor1 int f11l md stable International Unions. The Ameri- can Federation of Labor is charged with the duty of promoting organization among all wage earners. Necessarily small groups of workers are first band ed together. Out of these small groups there develop larger groups. Ultimately international unions are formed out of these smaller groups.
 The American Federation of Labor embraces at this time 587 of such small groups numbering approximately 34,OOO workers.
 These local groups are organized into possible to unite these workers on trade lines, this method is followed. Such unions are known as local unions" Where it is found expedient or necessary to organize these workers along lines of industry or to include mixed trades, they are formed into ''federated' unions.
 These local and federated unions are not autonomous. Whatever authority they exercise IS delegated to them by the American Federation ot Labor. They are subject at all times to measures ot regulations and discipline. All final au- thority resides in the American Fedora tion of Labor They are required to contribute tax of 25 cents per member per month to the American Federation of Labor. The American Federation of Labor in turn provides strike and lockout

Meanwhile, of course, the disap-
pearance of Oliver from the Sower-
berry establishment had been noted
and his non-arrival at the Work
house surprised nobody. The Board
was well rid of him, considering
the prevalent conviction that the
gailows were but a little while de-
ferred as the agent of divers de-
parture from this vale of ingrati-
tude and tears. The episode would
soon have been forgotten had not a
stranger from London sought the
hospitable Beadle, Mr.. Bundle,
seeking information.
He gave his name as Monks but
his real name was-Edward Lee
ford.
"Do you remember" said he, as
Mr.. Bundle seeming reward, rub
bed his hands in oily anticipation,
"do you remember about seven or
eight years ago, child was born at
your Workhouse?'
Many children have been born
here" replied the evasive Bundle.
"Its mother died." replied Mr..
Monks.
"Most of them do" returned the
enigmatical Beadle.
Il see that your memory is in
need of stimulation" said the suave
Mr.. Monks pressing substantial
note into the expoctant hand of the
Beadle.
A long and whispered converse
ton then ensued which ended with
the assurance Of Mr.. Monks that if
Mr.. Bundle would communicate to
him Immediately he learned any
thing of the whereabouts of one
Oliver Twist, he, the said Mr..
Monks, would make such trouble
amply profitable to his informant.
There was also talk of ring and
a locket and the assurance from Mr..
Bundle that his gentle wife could
and would produce them if suffi-
GENTLY and properly urged and ap-
preached.
If Oliver Twist, in his dreams of
London, had ever thought that me-
tropolis a city paved with gold, he
was disillusioned by Field Lane,
whittier his loquacious companion
now led him. For in this squalid
district there lived the merry old
gentleman" who was pledged by his
protege to provide the homeless or
phan with lodgings for nothink. "
Just at the moment of entering
what was to be divers future
home, his host was engaged in an
exchange of civilities with one Char
ley Bates which had he heard them
would have caused the applicant

Prof. F. B. Morrison, author of the
book, "Feeds and Feeding" and ma
tional authority on this subject, will
be the principal speaker. By our pre-
sence let US help make this great

come out to the Feeding Day. Watch
for further notices.

Do you know that if the milk pro-
duced in one year by Wisconsin dairy
men was dumped in one place, a lake
one mile long, one-haf mile wide, and
over six feet deep, containing over 10
billion pounds of milk would be form
ed? Do you know that if every per-
son in the United States would eat
one tablespoon Of milk more each day
the demand could not be supplied?
Do you know that an increase of con-
sumption of only a half a pound of
neat week per capita would call Co.
100000 more cattle, and 100000
mere hogs than were slaughtered in
1921? Think those figures over, Mr..
Stockman, and then see if the Eat

worth sJpportingS
Two dairy cows have just been

The figures as announced by the own

A suggestive list of good New
Years Resolutions for farmers:
Plant an acre of alfalfa.
Get rid of the scrub bull.
Join a Cow Testing Association.
Sow pedigreed grain seed.
Test your seed corn for germina-
ton.
Prune and spray the orchard.
Aid the boy or girl in getting q
purebred calf or pig to take care OF
for Club Project.
Smile, and soon there will be miles,
and miles of smiles and life's worth
while because we smile.

is here when boys and girls should
think about Club Projects for 1928.
Orders for pure Grimm alfalfa
seed have reached the 1000 pound
mark. This early purchase means
a saving of about ten cents per
pound. There will be considerable
increase in the acreage of alfalfa in
the county and before we know it
Pierce County will rank as one of the
leading alfalfa counties in the state
of Wisconsin. 1t takes Is pounds OF
Grimm seed to an acre. Join the
ranks of alfalfa growers.
You can't afford to miss the Farm

Farmers Institute at Ellsworth, Feb.
S and 9. Many good things are in
store for you. Topics of great i'm
portance will be discussed. Farmers,
these are ycrr institutes, and If you
fail to attend these meetings, l come
to the conclusion that you are not
very much interested in the business

being selected as one of the two cities

lowered his tone and said to that
worthy. "Bill must see you tonight;
most important. Monks is in town"
From all that the mysterious Mr..
Monks could learn at the Work
house, Oliver Twist had run away.
Further trace of him there was not,
but Monks was competent, in the
circumstances, to come to fairly GER
tain conclusions regarding the
whereabouts of the missing lad.
London-that city of vast in
equalities-was undoubtedly the
place towards which the escaped
Oliver was headed, and big as Lon
don was, it was not so large but
that the drag-net of Monks under
world influence would locate the boy.
