New York Assembly Has
Bill to Provide Eight
Hour Day in Hospitals

A bill has been introduced in the
assembly at Albany, to amend the
labor law in relation to employment
in state hospitals. The bill has been
read once and referred to the Com
mittee on Labor and Industries. As
amended it reads: Eight consecu-
tive hours, exclusive of necessary
time for meals, shall constitute a
legal days work for attendants,
nurses and other employees on the
ward service of state hospitals. No
such attendant, nurse or other en-
ploye shall be permitted or allowed
to work more than eight hours in one
day for twenty four hours; provided,
however, that extra labor may be per-
formed in case Of an epidemic of
disease or siclsq4ss in any such hos
pitfalls.

members of Local 35, who was pick
citing the shop Of Reisman, Rothman
& Beaver Of 521 West 9th street.
The gangster was found, when TAX
en- to police headquarters, to have a
long criminal record with three pre-
vious convictions for felonies against
him. He was at the time of his ar
rest out on bail of $4,000 and he is
now held without bail pending a hear
ing of his case.
This is one 'of the clearest cases of
the International's use of gangsters
to force workers, by terrorist meth
DDS, to register and thus support Sig
man. The firm of Reisman, Rothman
& Beaver had been called on strike
this week when three workers were
discharged for refusing to register,
and since then the picket lines have
been constantly harried by gueriIlas.
On Wednesday shots were fired at the
pickets from passing automobiles, but
no one was hurt. Yesterday, Tiriris
was unprotected when Zeuruch and
his gang attacked him with lead pipes
and left him unconscious.

BUSINESS MEMS
JURY CONVIC is
PASSAIC STRIKER
Proof of Third Degree
Methods Brought Out

HAcKENSACK, Feb. A jury
Of small business men and women sit
ting in a court room charged with
prejudice against the Passaic strikers
brought in a verdict of guilty against
Adolf Wisnefski, 1913 Passaic street,
Garfield, one Of the eleven textile
strikers incarcerated since last Sep
TENDER in the bomb frame-up which,
strike leaders allege, was intended to
prevent the entry of the A. r. Of L.
into the big textile strike, who was
brought to trial today before Judge
William M. Seufert in the Bergen
County Court of Quarter Sessions in
this city, after series Of inpermissi-
BILE postponements.
Alexander McDeed Of Paterson,
counsel for Wisnefski, declared that
the prisoner had been subjected to a
brutal third degree at the time Of his
arrest and that confession had been
wrung out of him because of the tor
ture and promises that it would go
easier for him if he signed a fake
confession. Attorney Mcleod argued
that as the confession was not volun-
tary it should not be accepted in evil
dence.
Apart from the testimony of strike
zone police, and the forced confession,
the state furnished no witnesses
against Wisnefski.
Wisnefsli was held in $4,000,
while some of the other prisoners
were held in as high as $4,000 bail.
Wisnefski, when placed on the
stand today, repeatedly declared that
he had no knowledge of the bombings
and that he was at home with his
family on the night of the bombing
in connection with which he was ar
rested.
No lives were lost in these peculiar
bombings and little property damage
done.
Wisnefski has wife and five small
children, He will be sentenced next
Friday.

injured when thugs in the employ of
the corrupt ex-officers of Local Num-
Der 3 of the electrical workers union
prevented international officers from
taking possession of the local offices

ficers deposed last December were de-
nounced by 1000 rank-and-filers who
met later in the day at the Yorkville
Casino, Eighty-sixth street, between
Second and Third avenues.
Thugs Fire At Crowd.
Several shots were fired by hired
thugs in the afternoon fracas in order
to break up the crowd of workers who
stormed the local office. Alexander
Flackner, one of those arrested, adj
mitted that he had fired at the crowd.
The three others arrested were Jack
Diaz of 1872 Fifty-third street,
Brooklyn, and julius v Timko of 917
Eightieth street, Brooklyn, both sup
porters Of international officers, and
Gerald Hook of AIT West Forty

ably victim of the terrorist tactics
of the crooked local officials.
Denounce Grafters.
Former President Richard O'Hara,
Mike Stanton, Peter Gilroy, and other
corrupt officials who were expelled
from the union for accepting brides
and misusing the locals funds, were
denounced at the YorlEville Casino

said to be illegal by the ousted Of
fieers, was perfectly regular, accord
ing to H. H. Breach, international

Profitable Practice of
Hogging Down Corn Crop

The practice of hogging down corn
has been growing very rapidly In the
corn belt states in recent years. 1t
is good practice because it saves
labor and increases the rapidfty of
hog gains, provided the corn is prop
erly supplemented. A few farmers
still make the mistake Of turning their
spring pigs into corn without sup
plying a supplementary high protein
and the proper amount of mineral
matter. But the great majority of
farmers who follow the practice of
hogging down a portion of their corn
are placing self-feeders containing a
commercial high protein feed and a
mineral mixture in the field to allow
the pigs to balance their own ration.
1t is in this way that the most eco
ncmical as well as the most rapid
gains are obtained.

Native Vegetables Are

I'm the American vegetable garden
eight principal food products had their
origin I'm the INDIAN crops existing
here before the advent of the white
man. These include beans, corn. pep

and sweet potato. Vegetables of Old
World origin are far more numer-

No mother in this enlightened aga

especially when a few drops Of plain
Castoria wiz right a baby's stomach

until everything is serene.
That's the beauty of Castoria; its.
gentle influence seems just what is
needed. 1t does all that castor oil
might accomplish, without shock to-
the system. Without the evil taste.
It's delicious! Being purely vegeta-

Just one warning: it is genuine
Fletcher's Castoria that physicians
recommend. Other preparations may
be just as free from all doubtful drugs,
but no child of this writer's is going
to test them! Besides, the book on
care and feeding of babies that comes

Sweet clover hay, properly cured,
Is practically equal to alfalfa.
Farmers seldom have trouble get
ting good prices for high-grade prod.
uce.
After haying and harvest is good
time to get at that concrete dairy

Millet hay should not be fed tn

Poultry manure Is the most valu-
able fertilizer. 1t is high in organic
nitrogen. phosphoric acid and potash.
Nearly all diseases of poultry are
taken into the body through the
mouth, either with the feed or water.

Silo Has Great
Value for Corn
Poor Crop and Borer Point
Way to Proper Storage
of Feed.

This fall the silo provides the best
way to cope with the European corn
borer and to make the most of what
may be saved from the corn crop, says
the New York state. college of agri-
culture at Cornell university.
Unless all signs fail this will be
one of New Yorks poorest corn years,
the college points out. Planting was
late because of unfavorable weather; ;.
a shortage of good seed was RESPONSE
BILE for many poor stand; corn fields
were disked and seeded to buckwheat.
A late fall may help some but can
not compensate for the cool summer
which has reduced yields in every
corn field.
Put Soft Corn in Sio.
Much corn grown for grain will
have to be put in the silo if it is to be
saved. Soft corn which will not keep
in crib is safe in silo; and corn
stalks, cut up fine and put through
the fermentation of silage cannot
harbor live corn borers.
Corn properly stored in the silo re-
tains more of its feeding value than
by any other method. The college
suggests that the farmer allow his
corn to stand as long as possible, re-
Numbering that each days growth
means hundreds of pounds of feed;
allow the ears to reach the glazed
stage, if possible; If he must cut corn
that is very immature, the bundles
should lie on the ground couple of
days to evapOrate some of the excess
moisture. Extremely green silage is
watery and poor in quality.
Reduce Spoilage in Silo.
. Reduce the spOiIage in the silO by
having the walls air-tight; by cutting
the pieces small and by packing firm.
ly to exclude even small air pockets
where mold may start. In year like
this good part of the feeding value
is i'm the leaves of the corn plant,
SO none of the leaves should be lost.
