(Ru q Worker CORRESPONDENT

(Bg a Worker Correspondent
SPENCER, N. C. (By Mai) -
Tho the capital of the Southern
,ailway has more than doubled
rom S55,o00,OO0 in 1921 to $112,-
10000 now, and this slave driving
abroad has increased the volume
{ traffic handled many times, the
rorkers on this railroad are terribly
slave driven and are paid low wages.
This is especially true of the shop
craft workers on the Southern.
More Traffic. Less Workers.
While the traffic volume has in
creased, they have handled the in
creased traffic with reduced en-
ployes, and are steadily laying off
more and more men each week, lay
ing off several thousand last year.
The shop craft workers belong to
the Federated Shop Crafts, whose
leaders are all takers who state they
believe in friendly arbitration" with
the Southern road. The blacksmiths,
whose president is the labor mis-
leader, Roy Horn, who has often
stated he was against all "Bolshe-
viks and Bolshevik tactics" are
down to S315 cents an hour on the
Southern.
Wages Are Cut.
The sheet metal workers, whose
vice-president is the labor misleader,
Louis Wicklein, have dropped from
SIS cents to rs cents an hour. The
work of the sheet metal workers has
become many times harder with the
many changes in locomotive equip
ment. As an example, where an old
type locomotive carried 40 pounds
steam pressure, the new giant loco
motives carry $50 pounds. The pipe
work on the engines in the cabs is
more exacting than ever, and the
speedup is greater. Yet despite the
increased difficulty of the worker,
wages have gone down for the sheet
metal slaves.
Frequently Laid Off.
Thirty per cent and more of the
shop craft workers on the Southern
Railway are only temporarily en-
ployed, and are laid off from time
to time, and if they care to wait for
the beck and call of the rail bosses
are given temporary jobs every once
in a while.
Most of the Southern Railway
shops have been shutting down for
long periods at a time, laying off
the whole force. This happens on
the average of five times year for
most shops, for periods of two weeks
or more.
Laid Off Old Workers.
In the shops here they laid off
man with 1914 years seniority.
The railroad will not hire a man
over 40 years of age, so that if a
man loses his job after 16 years
seniority he is out of luck.
Misleaders Do Nothing.
What have the misleaders of the
Federated Shop Crafts been doing :?
Nothin, but begging the rail bosses
for conferences, to plead that "bet-
ter cooperation" be had between the
bosses and union misleaders.
They have opposed all strikes at
the time Of wage cuts and would
outlaw any locals that declared for
strikes. So naturally, the bosses
had an easy time cutting shop craft
wages.
We must get rid of these fake
craft railway unions, and declare for
amalgamation of all unions on the
railroads from locomotive engineers
down to track laborers.

Maryland Breeders Order Purebred
Ewes

AS result of the increased de-
mand in recent years for purebred
stock in the State, K. A. Clark and
w. E. Hunt, Animal Husbandmen of
the University of Maryland left re-
Gently for Western Montana for the
purpose of selecting three decks of
purebred Hampshire ewes to fill the
orders of twelve Maryland breeders.
The orders call for 10 lambs, 80 year
lings, and 1913 older animals. These
purebred ewes will be used to es-
tablish new flocks and to increase the
size of fiocks already established.
A considerable amount of the ami
mails will be shipped to the Eastern

Shore where there is a shortage of
purebred stock. The rest are to go
to other parts of the state. At the
ram sale held in Centreville, As pure
bred rams sold for an average price
of $685.. Nineteen of the rams sold
came from out-of-state fiocks. Mary
land breeders of purebred sheep,
therefore, now have a good outlet for
their rams.

Boys
Charles Hines, of Olney, and Jack
Price, of Darlington, Md, have just
been awarded scholarships to the All
Club Week which will be held from
August to Is on the campus of the
University of Maryland. The scholar
ships, which defray all expenses for
the week, are being awarded by the
Southern Planter, an agricultural
magazine published in Richmond, Va.
Charles Hines was selected for the
honor because of his fine reputation
for good All club work. He has had
wide and varied experience and was
the first boy ever to be called upon
to speak before a Senate Committee
on his and other All club boys work.
Charles is in complete charge of his
mothers farm in Montgomery coun-
ty and has, as a part of his club
work, some of the finest cows, swine
and poultry in the State of Mary
land.
Jack Price has likewise been out
standing in his work and is rapidly
becoming one of the best known club
members in the State. He is very
helpful in local club and county af-
fairs and has shown himself to be a
leader. He is working his way thru
High school.

Bean Beetle Control Methods are
Effective

Bean Beetle Control Methods are
Effective
Observations of the Campaign be-
ing conducted against the Mexican
bean beetle in the State have shown,
according to DR.. E. N. Cory, State
Entomologists, that the control meth
DDS used have been very effective.
Costs, it is pointed out, have varied
but, in cases where Gamers have
checked plots untreated, the indica-
lions are that the treatments have
been absolutely necessary in order to
save the crop.
While several Gamers have sug-
gested the busting" or spraying of the
plots between the first and second
pickings DIR. Cory has discouraged
the practice as unnecessary from the
standpoint of possible injury to the
bean since most of the bean larvae
have finished their feeding by that
IlIile' AlSO, IL 10 ulSCouIdSeu OSSouoS
an extra spray or dust will unneces-
sarily increase the probability of eX
cess arsenical residue and DR.. Cory
warns, while the danger from excess
arsenic is slight, it would take only
one rejection on that basis to- put the
buying public and food officials in the
same psychological state that was
brought on by the English apple re-
jections.
Therefore, for this reason, it is
strongly advised that careful con-
sideration be given before putting on
the sprays or dusts even if the bee
ties are present. If there should be
any doubt as to the proper procedure,
DR.. Cory advises that member of
the staff of the entomology depart
ment be consulted.
After a recent inspection in COM
pany with the County Agent J. H.
Carter, Dr. R. A. Jehle, Specialist in
Pathology for the University of
Maryland Extension Services, reports
that the potato plots of the 20 men,
bers of the Certified Seed Potato All
club of Garrett county are looking in
fine condition and should produce
some very good potatoes.
The club was formed in an effort to
train and interest the young farm
ers of the county in the growing of
certified seed potatoes, and as an in
ducement, the agricultural depart
ment of the B. & O. Railroad supplied
each contestant with sufficient seed to
plant a of an acre. Later on prizes
will be awarded by the Railroad to
the leading club producer.
The contest originally started with
% members. However, 2 of the club
members suffered losses when their
plants became diseased from adjacent
potato fields and third member, in
using a northern variety of seed, de-
veloped so much leaf roll in his plants
that he was disqualified. The remain
ing 20 members, however, should pro-
duce very fine certified stock, it is
declared by DR.. Jehle.
DR.. Jehle expects to visit Garrett
county within another week or so to
make the second inspection of these
potato plots.
