WORKERS! Use this ANTETOXIN!
BY JAY LovEsToNE

LOT OF talk has been going the rounds about the much
Wanted American standard of living. But the stand
ard of subsistence for the great of the American
workers will remain inadequate until the time when the
laboring masses consider The DAILY WORKER part of
their very basic needs and demands
Daily the bosses and their hreIngs fill the workers
with all kinds of poisons. The DAILY WORKER serves
powerful ant-toxn, effective andote against
the bac and toxin to which the workers subjected in
their everyday contact with the capitalist institutions of
transformation and exploitation.
Let US begn-put a DAILY WORKER every day into
the hands of the millions of American workngmen in
order to raise their standard Of Wngmenta we'll
physcaI-and hasten the day when they will begin to
speak for their class and speak in the only language

PASSAIc, N. j., April 1871 do not
care about the right or wrong in this
matter. This man is dangerous and
must not be allowed to be out but
must be kept in Jail and away from
the strikers"
This came as a climax to the busy
day the attorneys and friends Of Or
ganizer Albert Weisbord had spent
trying to get him out Of prison.
First he was brot before Judge
Black (Which is correct) in the Pater-
son court, where he pleaded not guilty
to four indictments and placed under
$4,000 bail, which was furnished BY
the legal department OF the United
Front Committee of Textile Workers.
Again Arrested.
Immediately upon release from the
Paterson hoosegow he was arrested by
the Garfield police and taken to the
Hackensack Jail in Bergen county. He
was brought before Judge Baker at
the Garfield court and held under
$4,000 bail on a charge of melting to
riot. Other charges were also made
against him but bail was not fixed
except in the first one, so that if he
secured the first amount the judge
could put the bail on the other charges
so high that it would take several
days in each case to secure the
amount asked for.
The lawlessness of the courts in
New Jersey has gone so far that some
of the most prominent men in the
country are fearing that something
besides a strike might happen. The
masses-and among them business
and professional and public men-are
getting very restless. The press is
unable to digest the rusty tin cans and
dried up rawhides that the police and
sheriffs and courts are feeding it. Look
at the New York World and see its
cartoons with man spiking big railroad
crossing sign on post reading Siberia,
n. j." Look all around and see the
pictures of czarist cossacks decorating
the front pages. The politicians are
becoming alarmed The industrial
lords are becoming frantic.

Sheriff Nimmo Of Bergen county and
laekey Of the mill owners on Satur-
day. Late in the afternoon, after
Weisbord's release on $3.50 bond
at Paterson on charges Of melting
to riot, hostility to government and
conspiracy, he was arrested by MIN
mo and lodged in the Garfield jail on
the original exhorbtant bail Of $780,
600.
His attorneys Immediately got
busy and after night in jail the
strike leader was again released,
this time on $4,000 bail, which, in
addition to the $4,000 bail in Pas
sale county, makes his total bail
now the original amount set.

Strike Committee

NEW YORK, April 19--With shouts
and cheers, the thousands of fur work
ers packed into Webster, and Bee
thoven Halls and Manhattan Lyeeum
this afternoon, Npedged once more
their confidence in the General Strike
Committee, and their determination to
continue with them the struggle to
win all their demands without COM
promise.
All the halls, where the mass meet
ings were called to discuss the strike
settlement proposed by certain off,
cials of the international, were crowd
ed to capacity and the police had to
forbid any more strikers to enter. The
workers had come to hear in detail
from their own strike leaders just
what the manufacturers had suggested
as a basis of settlement.
The Demands.
Each point was carefully explained
by Ben Gold, chairman of the strike
Committee, and was met by loud
"boos' from the workers. In place of
the 40 hour week demand, the manu-
facturers propose a 42-hour week; and
they seek to drop altogether the de-
mand for equal distribution of work
in the shop, the demand for no over
time work, and the demand for an
unemployment insurance fund. They
propose a 10 per cent wage increase in
place of 25 per cent, and they sug-
gest a 3-year agreement instead Of a
year. w
No Compromise.
All suggestion OF compromise was
iiouted by the workers and wild en-
thusiasm reigned when Gold announ-
ced that the strikers will never weak
en- in their determination to win this
strike on the terms of the agreement
proposed two months ago. 4
Several of the shops already settled
on the unions terms stopped work this
afternoon in order that their members
might attend the mass meetings and
pledge their loyalty to the strike lead
ers. Never since the very first days

BULL ASSOCIATION AIDS
FARMER WITH FEW COWS

A bull association gives the man with
one COW an equal opportunity with the
man with so cows to use a purebred
sire. A man with few cows finds 1t
difficult to own purebred bull that
costs $500, but, when several farmers
together own 90 cows they can use the
bull and pay for him at the rate of
81 COW. The man with only one COW
can be In such an association and have
the use of the 5000 bull for only 81.
This 81 win go still further when
these men become members Of a CO.
operative bull association, which con-
sists of three or more groups or blocks.
Then the man with one cow gets a
share In 5000 worth of bulls for his
81. Il provides bull service for him
for six years. without any further In
vcstment, since the bulls are shifted
from one block to another every two
years The cost of feeding the bull Is
pro-rated equally per cow each year.
This system makes II possible for the
smallest dairyman to have the use OF
high class bulls The cost Is not pro
hibitive TO any one,
Pope county has such an association.
Over 400 farmers are members of the
association and. together. they own IA
pnrebred Jersey bulls NJ. Sulliyant,

ley, extension dairyman Of the Uni
versity of Arkansas College of Agri-
culture, have been of assistance in
organizing the Pope county association.
County agents have formed purebred
sire associations in other counties of
the state also.

munity In Randolph county become In
aerested in starting bull club, County
Agent Kerr will be glad to help work

If every farm COW in Arkansas could
"liye-at-home" as we are suggesting
that every farm family do, the produc-
ton of the average COW of the state
could be doubled, according to w. ii.
Woodley, extension dairyman. College
Of Agriculture, University Of Arkan-
sas.
"This would mean profit where mnny
farmers have loss" he said. 1T would
mean that Arkansas would not need
to go to other states to buy her founda-
tion cows, as her own would become
better than those that were bought"
Woodley has outlined the amount of
feed TO raise each COW as follows :
roughage- -legume hay, two tons; 81
lage, two tons or roots, one and half
tons. Grain-corn, 10 bushels; some
other grain, 10 bushels. Feed to be
bought--300 pounds of cottonseed meal
and 300 pounds Of wheat bran. Grain
mixture to be fed-three parts of corn
chops; two parts of other grain; one
part bran and one part cottonseed
meal.

Poultry Hints For April

Break up broody hens as soon as
possible. Broody hens remaining on
the nest is one of the great causes OF
poor quality Of market eggs.
Feed the hens a good laying ration
while they are in the broody cOops I;
this will keep them In good condition
and they will get back to producing In
n short time.
Plan to market the broilers this
month. They usually bring the top
price during April.
Get your chicks, from the light
breeds, started Off well this month ;
they will make your best fall and
winter layers.
Keep plenty of growing mash be-
fore your chicks at all times. The
best chicks are those that grow nor.
mally from Matching time to maturity
Feed all the buttermilk or sour skim
milk the chicks will consume.
Attempt to raise the chicks on ground
that was not used last year. If this
is not possible, lime and either spade
up or plow the old yards
Many chick troubles start with con
taminated soil and unsanitary condi
tions around the brooder house, there
fore. clean and disinfect all quarters
at regular intervals.
If YOU have not busted or treate'
the hens in some way for body lice, d'
so this mouth. The house should ais
be treated with good disinfectant L
keen down the mites. Both lice an'
mites will cause low grade product'on'
