FARM' LABOR.
HArd to Get and of Poor Quality...
Suggestod Remedy.
One of the most common complaint'
to-day coming from the farm is tht
incompetency of most of the farm la
borers that can be secured. It ti nol
to be doubted that this 'will rosill
finally in the establishing of soim
kind of school or bureau where it
will be possible for crude laborers te
be made into competent farm labor'
ers. There are thousands of.idle mer
in the cities in ordinary times that
would be glad to go out and work in
the country if they understood- the
work. Farm work also varies so great
ly in character that one kind of a farm
laborer is not well fitted to do other
kinds of farm labor.
Thus a city man that has worked
as stable man in a great horse-breed,
ing establishment would not be well
fitted by his experience to go to work
for a horticulturist. When he loses
his position with the horse-breeder, he
turns his face city-ward and goes to
work for some man in town. If he
had an opportunity to learn how to
do all kinds of farm work he could
readily change from one class of work
to another, but as a matter of fact it
is not easy for a man that wishes to
learn farming to get with a man that
will let him learn all kinds of farming,
Usually his work is so one-sided that
he makes little progress.
This is a matter that will doubtless
be taken up in time by the depart
ments in our agricultural colleges that
deal with farm economics, thinks
Farmers' Review. It would be entire
ly easy for some one of our agricul
tural colleges to start such a fitting
school as an experiment, with the
idea of turning out annually a few
all-around farm laborers, who would
have learned many kinds of work in
the various departments of the experi
ment station farm. Laborers so taught
would have the advantage of having
been taught more correct principles
of farming than is true with most la
borers, who pick up a good deal of
error with the facts they acquire.
DWARF FRUITS.
Earliness is Their Chief Point of Ad.
vantage Over Other Varieties.
Dwarf fruits cannot be made com
mnercially profitable, but they -have
somo advantages over other fruits in
the earliness with which the tree be
gins to bear. Dwarf pears unde- good
treatment as to soil come quickly intc
bearing. The most prolific sorts givi
some frtit the second year after set
ting, andg increase the product fron
year to year for a number of years
A good many dwarf apples are nov
being planted,. and these soon produce
good crops. Of course these trees art
- short-lived and cannot be made t<
- take the place of the standard sor
I:f apples and pears. There ar<
many farms, however, on which It in
:lesired to have some fruit in
few years, and these furnish thi
means.
They should not, however, be plant
ed between rows of standar-d trees, ai
some suggest, but in a plantation b:
themselves. The plan of planting bc
tween standard trees short-lived treel
Ithat are to be dug out never work:
out satisfactorily. Hore and there wil
be0 found a short-lived tree of mori
than usual value and longevity anm
- the owner will not cut it out. No
should such trees be dispensed witi
till they have passed their period o
usefulness. If they are in a plant2
Stion of their own the best trees can
i be left to grow andbear fruit loni
. after the others have been cut out.

Politics ani immigration.
The Manifacturers' Record of
Baltimore sounds this timely
.fnote of warning:
"Co-ilcidnt mitly with exposi
tions at Soutihern ports by an
official of the national depart
ment of conuirce and labor of
the government's plan to dis
tribute immigrants, a plan far
beyond the safe pnwm-iice of the
national governmint. rcilars
are being sent from New York
City designed to further the
work of an organization there
seeking, in its own words., 'to
encourage the distribution of
Italian immigrants all over the
country, especially in the agri
cultthal sections of the United
States.' The South and the
country will do well to discouir
age at every point any move
ment, whether by a New York
organization,a trans-continental
steiship company or by the
federal government, to distrib
ute through the country any
kind of immigrants, especially
immigrants who are speeded
from their native countries by
their own governments. There
is too much of the fine Italian
hand touching big American
politics visible in the immigra
tion movemlwnt to this country."
The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle
indorses the above by saying:
"There is something to think
about in this. Foreign govern
Ients that want to get rid of
their undesirable citizens, and
steamship companies that want
'o haul them across the ocean,
can have no very deep interest
in the proper development of any
portion of this country. Cer
tainly ciitzens of -he United
St a'es; should not allow them
selves to be duped into aiding a

Getting His Own Back.
An ironworker, .having bad the worst
of an argument with a friend, decided
to get even with him.
Waiting, therefore, until his enemy
had retired to rest one night, he ap
proached his street door and knocked
loudly In order to wake him.
Opening the bedroom window, the
other hurriedly inquired what the noise
was all about.
"Why." replied the outside one, "one
of your witadows Is wide open."
"Which one?"
"Why. the one you have your head
thronigh." chuckled the other as he
went away satisfied with the success
of his plot.-Illustrated Bits.
Must Chargo to Got Crowd.
The ladies' guild of an uptown church
had planned an evening entertainment
and reception and asked the rector to
mnake announceient of it on the Sun
day preceding.
"This Is all right." he said, "but you
must charge admission."
"Wry, this is just a social evenIng,"
they protested. "We are inviting peo
pie."
"They won't cone," said the rector.
"herause they will think it is not worth
whie. But ehnrge a small admission
and you will have a good croivd." So
the women gave in, and subsequent
-vents proved the rector was right.
