Down on the Farm

The estimated 1886 production of
hay in the United States is 70, 1865, 900
tons.
Approximately 1900, 900 acres of
Texas land were terraced or con-
toured in 1886.
Wool increases greatly in value,
the same as any farm product,
when it is properly grown and pre-
pared for market.

or blocking; never with traps.
There are two kinds of soil ero-
sion-that caused by wind and that
caused by water.
Good pasture reduces the cost of
feeding live stock. Agronomists at
Ohio State university say that money
spent for pasture improvement
should be classed as an investment
rather than as an expense.

Discing for Lespedeza

Korean lespedeza may be seeded
safely in oats by discing or drilling
the seed into the soil with the oats
or after the oats have been seeded.
The method of seeding may be SIM
liar to that of red clover in wheat,
with oats or in thin pastures, says
the Indiana Farmers Guide. Most
seedlings are broadcast and cover
ing more than an inch in depth may
prohibit termination of the lespe-
deza. If the seed is to be disced
into the ground with oats, cover as
lightly as possible.

Raising Broiler Birds

The cross of Rhode Island Red
hens and Barred Rock males is a
popular broiler bird. 1t is said that
they grow faster and are easier to
raise than most pure breeds. Broil-
ers are started on a chick starting
ration and can be given hard grain
after a short time or raised on an
all mash feed. A special broiler ra-
ton gives well feshed birds. The
loss in dressing broilers ranges be-
between 13 and IA per cent.

The man gave a start, and his jaw
dropped. He barely rescued his
pipe from falling to the floor.
"You didn't place it, don't y
know" Vance went on dulcetly.
"Rather interestin' point, in view
of the fact that your cousin was not
destined to live long enough to col
lect the wager, even if Equanimity
had won. And in the circumstances,
had you placed it, you would now be
ssddled with a $40, 900 debt-since
Swift is no longer able to SETTLE"
"God Almighty, stop it, Vance!"
Garden exploded. He sank Imply
into a chair. "How do you know I
didn't place Woode's bet?"
Vance regarded the man with
searching eyes.
"No bookie would take a bet of
that size five minutes before post
time. He couldn't absorb it,"
"But Hannix-"
"Don't make a Wall-Street fnan-
cier of Hannix for my benefit"
Vance admonished quietly. "And
another thing: I happened to be sit
ting in a strategic position near your
table when you pretended to place
| Swift's bet. You very deftly pulled
the cord taut over the plunger of
the telephone when you picked up
the receiver. You were talking in

any suspicion that Woody was going

"My dear fellow!" Vance sighed
with annoyance. "I'm not thinkin'.

damn it, Vance! I can't answer
that question. Frankly, I don't know
who is and who isn't capable OF
murder. The younger set today are
all bored to death, %intolerant of ev.
cry restraint, living beyond their
means, digging up scandal, seeking
sensations of every type. Zalia is
little different from the rest, as far
as / can see. She always seems to
be stepping on the gas and exceed.
ing the speed limits. How far she
would actually 60, I'm not prepared
to say. Who is, for that matter? It
may be merely a big circus parade
with her, or it may be fundamental
"a violent reaction from respecta-
bility."
"a vivid, though not a sweet,
character ketch h." murmured
Vance. zone might say offhand
that you are rather fond of her
but don't approve"
Garden laughed ~awkwardly.
"I can't say that I dislike Zalia.
Most men do like he~r-though I
don't think any of them understand
her. I know I don't. There's some
impenetrable wall around her. She's
either damned superficial or deep
as HE'LL can't make up my mind
which. AS to her status in this
present situation well, I don't
know. It wouldn't surprise me in
the least if Madge was right about
her. Zalia has staggered me a
couple of times-can't exactly ex-
plain it. You remember, when you
asked me about fathers revolver,
I told you Zalia had discovered it
in that desk and staged a scene
with it in this very room. Well,
Vance, my blood went cold at the
time. There was something in the
way she. did it, and in the tone OF
her voice, that made me actually
fear that she was fully capable OF
shooting up the party. I was re-
lieved when she put the gun back

"No. Of course not. No n can

If anyone could he'd understand ev-
erything. Not a comfortin' thought
Thanks awfully for the recital
of your fears and impressions.
You'll look after matters downstairs
for a while, won't your"
Garden seemed to breathe more
freely on being dismissed, and with
a mumbled a~cquiescence, moved to-
ward the door.
"Oh, by the by" Vance called
after him. zone other little point
I wish to ask you about"
Garden waited politely.
"Why," asked Vance, blowing a
ribbon of smoke toward the ceiling,
"didn't you place Swift's bet on
Equanimity?"

MAYOR CALLS IN TROOPS
FOR STRENGTHENING

in
state troops to pierce picket lines
with bayonets, Mayor Harold H.
Burton of Cleveland wrote himself
down in the little black book of
names organized labor will never
forget, as Republic Steel made a
great show of opening three of its
plants here with foremen, managers,
officeworkers and imported strike
breakers.
At the Truscon plant alone, a I'M
ion organizer counted $50 out-of-
town cars going in. The union
charged Republic with putting on a
great show of activity and with burn
ing tar paper to impress strike ranks
but steel won't be produced at
those plants" a strike leader added.
On the evening before the sched-
uled 'r%eopening," several thousand
strikers gathered near the huge Cor
rigan-McKinney plant and pledged,
with uplifted hands, not to return to
work. AS this is open season for
dynamite "plots," strikers were
warned to keep their automobiles
locked so that company men could
not plant explosives inside in new
frameup schemes.

EDUCATION BOARD STILES INFORMAL ION
Tory Press Plays Up
EarIe's Labor Lecture
By Federated Press

YOUNGSTOWN, Pa.-(FP)-An i'm
mense crowd of striking Bethlehem
steelworkers and coal mine sympa-
thizers stood in sticky clay through
a driving rainstorm at the Faiths
Grove union rally and heard Gov.
George H. Earle tell them that you
don't need violence when you have
a man like Franklin D. Roosevelt in
Washington, a liberal Congress and
a governor like me-"
The weather was somewhat in
suspicious for making political hay,
as the audience listened, somewhat
skeptical as to the extent to which
they could lay their troubles in the
lap of a governor who lost his nerve
after shutting down the Cambria
plant earlier in the strike. Some
also felt that his injection of the
issue of violence, which the union
has disavowed again and again, was
gratuitous, and that conjuring up a
red bogeyman and calling for a
purge within the union was inauspi-
cious at a time when strike solidarity
needs to be preserved.
Earle also gave aid and comfort to
the anti-union campaign which re-
dictionary newspapers r conducting
to the extent of blaming unmarried
Michigan organizations for violating
contracts, though he admitted that
this had not been the case in Penn
sylvania.
The governor plucked away on the
stylish plague-on-both-your-hous
string of the harp by criticizing the
brutal murder" of steel strikers in
Chicago and stating his personal
belief that the "steelmasters'' are vio-
lating the Wagner act. This part OF
the talk was given only Incidental
notice in newspaper reports of the
meeting.
The governors %oratorical straddle
was preceded by a straight-from-the-
shoulder talk by the strikers own
spokesman, Chairman Philip Muir
ray Of the Steel Workers Organizing
Committee, who declared that Meth
er the S. w. o. C. nor the United
Mine Workers of America had ever
violated an agreement. The crowd,
budding under newspapers and UNI
brellas, cheered his attacks on Beth
lehem's un-American policies. Stand
ard bearers held gold-and-b blue
miners banners and other emblems
bravely aloft in the storm.
A railroad man., arrested in a new
dynamite plot, named two other rail
readers as the men who had given
him the explosives. The men in
question were later identified as
scabbing in the current strike of the
brotherhoods on Bethlehem's private
line.

CHARLES G. JOHNSON
INSPECTOR

With the help of the Public Serv-
ice Commission, consisting of Thorn
as E. Carey, Horace F. Casey and E.
E. Krebsbach, the electrical unions
of this state procured an appropria-
ton from the last legislature for the
employment of an electrical inspec-
tor, with the view of enforcing the
laws relating to safety for electrical
workers throughout the state.
On July LIST, the Commission ap-
pointed Charles G. johnson, a MEM
Der of Local Union No. IS, %Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers, as electrical inspector. Mr..
Johnson is a former vice president
and member of the Executive Board
of Local Union No. IS, International
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.
Nh. Johnson has been porminent
in union activities and has, on vari-
Gus occasions, been a delegate to
various state conventions of electri-
cal workers, as well as the State
Federation of Labor. Mr.. johnson is
now a member of the Legislative
Board of the State Council of the
electrical workers. He has been en-
gagged in electrical work for the past
twenty-five years.
It is pointed out by the Commits
sion that, although the safety regu-
lations relating to electrical workers
have been on the statute books of
this state for several years, this is
the first time an appropriation has
been received and an electrical in
spector appointed.

A COMPLIMENT TO
ADULT EDUCATION

The Workers Adult Education that
has. been set up under the Works
Progress Administration and which
is such an essential part of that in
stitution, has been the one phase of
paternalism that the trade union
movement and the working people
have especially appreciated.
Under the Workers Adult Educa-
ton program many poor people have
been taught the fundamental prin-
ciples of the United States Govern
ment by the naturalization classes
at the Y. M. c. A. under the capable
instruction of Mrs. Anstice, Joe
Toole, a street car man, and Leslie
Polglase. Mrs. Anstice, the director
of the Adult Education has devoted
much of her time to this phase of
the work. The naturalization school
and the work that it has done in Gull
tivating among the aliens of this
community a sincere desire to know
the country in which they live and
to adopt that country as their own,
has been worth all of the money
that has been spent on WPA Adult
Education.
But that isn't all, the Adult Edu-
cation has provided courses in par
liamentary law, labor economics,
sewing, blue print work, mechanics,
and many other subjects. The Adult
Education program of the WPA has
been one of the finest and most
valuable phases of all the admins
trative agencies set up under the
New Deal.

WOMEN FACED With
STARVATION AFTER
LOSING VT ) JOBS

Under orders er 2 ting from
Washington, drastic .ctions have
been made in the ks Progress
Administration. T : omen in the
sewing rooms hay zen the most
severely punishe' Up until the
present time thel We been about
300 women empl under the Adj
ministration. hundred and
twenty-one of these have been laid
off. These women have no other
source of income. Many of them
are the head of households. In some
Instances the discharge of the women
will present tragic circumstances
One woman related that her hus-
band vas dying with miners con-
sumption and that her employment
under the WPA was the only reve-
nue. for the home. These women
are faced with starvation. Industry
will not absorb them.
The Workers Alliance is objecting
strenuously to this heartless cruelty
on the part of the Government. This
organization demanded three billion
dollar appropriation by the Gov
eminent to carry on WPA activities.
Instead, one billion, five hundred
million was appropriated, conse-
quently there is not enough money
to carry on the work and to take
care of destitute people. Some OF
the capitalist members of the House
and Senate wanted to even reduce
the appropriation to $750,00O. As ii
stands now, one person out of every
three working for the WPA will be
laid off.
Merchants will suffer from this
loss of payroll but it was the repre-
sentatives of business that obstruct-
ed ample funds being made by the
Government.

WH00p Err up
RIDE I'M COWBOY!

Butte's seventh annual champion
ship rodeo sponsored by Silver Bow
Post No. l, American Legion, is I'M
der way with more than 200 of the
nations best cowboys pitting their
skill and daring against hundreds of
pounds of animated beef and touchy
horseflesh.
Opening with a bang-up parade
there are four days of thrills and
spills galore as 1855 events are pre-
sented each night within a brief
space of 100 minutes. There are
clever acts, daring acts and funny
acts. There will also be plenty of
music. Children's day is Saturday.
Cy Talon will be master of cere-
monies and in a glib manner he will
describe the action from the time
the chutes fly open and the cowboy
on the hurricane deck Of a jumping,
twisting hayburner rides out his time
or hits the dirt.
All shows will be presented in the
cool of the evening under brilliant
flood lights. AS a special attraction
a large number of blooded horses,
expertly trained, will be on exhibit
ton and will compete for special
awards.
Butte has gone western in a big
way. Ten-gallon sombreros have
become the style for both men and
women, and it has been rumored that
the city is seriously considering the
unemployment of white-wings.
There must be a reason.
Butte's rodeo, in the last six years,
has taken its place at the top of this
type of entertainment. This years
contest is attracting the largest num-
Der of riders ever to appear at a
single contest.
The bill of special performers has
also been enlarged and includes such
stars as Hardie Murphy and his
wonder horse, "Silver Cloud"
Pinkey Gist and his trained mule,
"Freckles'; Monte Montana, Sam
Garrett, and Doris Case.

UNIONS ASK YOU
TO pATR0NIzE ITS
COOPERATIVE STORE

The Miners Union cooperative
store needs your patronage.
Members of organized labor espe-
cially should visit this cooperative
enterprise at 421 East Park Street.
Members of organized labor should
be willing to make a sacrifice if
necessary to assure the success of
this store. 1t is true that the name
of the store is the Miners Union Co.
operative Association, but it is not
confined to the miners, it is a store
primarily owned and operated by
the union movement of Silver Bow
County. The store deserves the
patronage of the members of organ
lied labor and if the members of
organized labor are loyal to their
union principles, they should go to
this store. Not that the cooperative
movement will Immediately bring
about a millennium nor will it i'm
mediately transform the economical
complexion of the United States but
ultimately the cooperative movement
will be the means of assisting the
working men and women in making
their wages go farther. The cooper
alive movement will be the means
of returning to them a part of their
earnings instead of making some
merchant rich. The union members
should not forget that the grocer
whom he patronizes is selfish, that
this grocer takes the money of the
union people, makes himself COM
paratively rich, sends his children to
the universities, buys automobiles,
and this is all done on the money
that the union people give to this
grocery man.
By all means the union people
should recognize this fact and pat
ronize their own store at 421 East
Park Street.
