Garden, Secretary of
Agriculture Says.

lean farmer has a genuine apprecia-
tion for esthetic beauty, Secretary
Jardine of the Department of Agri-
culture declared at a dinner here last
night, attended by officials of the In
ternational Flower Show, which
opens its eleventh annual exhibit to-
morrow.
I'VE think of agriculture today in
terms of plows, credit, corn and
prices" he said. These are economic
in character and vital to the welfare
of agriculture. But after the days
work and worry are over the farmer
and his family find real joy, relaxation
and happiness in the confines of the
home flower garden.
The Secretary described the flower
as the common language of all peo-
pies and as the vehicle of expression,
whether it be of cheer or sorrow.

EXTRA WATER DUE
FROM FALLS SEPT. |.
Work on New Supply System
for District Now Being
Rushed to Completion.

Active operations have been re-
sumed on all sections of the new
water supply system. An additional
supply of water will be running from
the intake at Great Falls into the
Dalecarlia or receiving reservoir at
the District line by September l, and
the entire system completed, with
connection with the local mains near
the Brightwood reservoir on Six
teenth street by January l, 1927. ac-
cording to Maj. James A. O'Connor.
Army engineer, in charge.
The completed work includes the
construction of the big concrete con-
duit west from the Dalecarlfa re s.
ervoir to point west of the Anglers
Club near Great Falls and the boring
of large tunnel through a rocky
hill between there and the intake
above the dam at Great Falls
Slide Has Been Halted.
The heavy slide of soft rock. which
caused serious delay in operations
on the tunnel last Fall, has been stop
ped completely and progress is being
made in the concrete lining of the
tunnel. When that work is compIet-
ed, about September l, water will be
turned into the new aqueduct and
add about 100,000,O00 gallons a day
to the available supply at the Dale
carlia reservoir.
It is confide ntly predicted that
complete Connection between the Dale
carlia reservoir and the District
water mains near the Brightwood
reservoir will be established by Jan
uary l, 1927. What remains to be
done at that end is the completion of
the large filtration plant and the pow
erful pumping plant just below the
Dalecarlia reservoir; the construction
of pipe lines from that point to the
new high service reservoir near Fox
hall road and the Reservoir road, and
the new high service reservoir near
the American University at Massa-
chusetts and Nebraska avenues. and
the construction of a tunnel and pipe
line between the latter reservoir and
the existing local distributing sys-
tenn near the Brightwood reservoir
Most of that construction is under
contract and is being pushed to the
limit.

men and women over 81 years of
age it will be seen that this result
is very emphatic reiteration of the
nations approval of the Anglo-Irish
treaty and of it's determination to
support the government in it's pro-

The spirit of the nation is reviving
despite all the propaganda of distrust
that enemies of the Free State can
furnish or finance Moreover, Ireland
has been rediscovered by Europe, no
longer as an island at the back of
England, but as a country whose in
dustrial and commercial development
it behooves European enterprise to
watch. That future that hitherto has
been only the fancy of poets is begin
ming to be the belief of those whose in
stinct is for the hard touch of reality
and realizable possibility.
Ireland is, in fact, enjoying the first
fruits of freedom and is bending her
back to the hard work that centuries of
obstruction, encouragement and ne
glect have left to this generation of
Irishmen to do.

UNION GROCERY STORES

The situation in the grocery store
clerks strike in Hamilton remains un-
changed. The owners Of the great
chain store concerns utterly ignore
the advances of organized labor in at
tempts to bring about an adjustment
of the grievances of the union en-
ployes. The chain stores as rule,
as whole, we might say, have no
use for trade unionism because it
means when dealing with union en-
ployes they must pay living wages
and grant decent hours. This, the
chain store doesn't approve of, and
is one of the reasons why they can
undersell the small dealer and are rap
idly putting him out of business. In
Hamilton there are many grocery
stores conducted by bona fide Hamil-
ton citizens and residents. They have
the interest of the city and it's people
at heart. They are mostly heavy tax
payers. They put everything in the
city and get little out for what they
put in. The chain store puts very
little into the city and takes much
out, with no interest in the city and
its peoples welfare other than that
they are able to buy groceries in large
amounts-and at their (the chain
companiesO stores. Buy groceries
from Hamilton merchants, your
neighbors, people who are willing to
deal fairly with their employees and
recognize their right to organize for
their mutual benefit. Buy only from
clerks wearing the monthly paid-ur
button. Show your unionism.
Ea "a Pa Ea IA
Buy union made bread, cakes and
pastries, and don't let anyone try to
hand you something "just as good.
Look for the bakers label.
