Safer to Test Seeds Before Planting
One of tho greatest lessons taught by
the war has been saving. It Is as Im
portant In gardening as (n anything else,
says today's bulletin from the Nnt'onal
War Garden Commission of Washington.
In order to save time and effort which
would bo lost by planting worthless seed,
all gardeners should test their seeds
before they plant them.
A simple seed tester can be mJdc at
homo In a few minutes. Take a dinner
plate and cut a piece of blotting paper
or other thick, soft paper without print
ing on it to fit Into tho plate. Cut
nnother the same size to cover over tho
first one. Pour on enough water to wet
both papers. Take from ten to fifty
seeds and place them between the paper.
Keep the plate in ordinary room tem
perature and the papers moist. Any
reader of this paper can secure a copy
of the free garden book by writing to
the commission In Washington, Inclosing
a two-cent 'stamp for postage.
Some seeds will begin to sprout In a
day or two; others will take longer. If
the first lot does not sprout try another
lot. It pou cannot make the need sprout
In this way It will not sprout in the
ground and you must get another supply.
With most seeds at least three-quarters
ought to germinate.
For larger testings a pan or tray may
be used. Small lots of the larger seeds,
like corn and beans, may bo sprouted
In the tester for planting In the garden
to save time. Some states have a pure
seed law, which protects the gardener:
but try to purchase seeds of a reliable
seedsman, no matter if the price Is high.
It will pay In the end.

EIGHT-HOUR WORKING DA Y
FOR WOMEN PROLONGS LIFE
Trade Union League Official, Urging Passage of Pending Legislation,
Says Feminine Workers Are Entitled to More of God's
Healthful Sunshine
By PAULINE M. NEWMAN
Oreanlicr, Women's Trade Union Ia(iie, of Philadelphia.
There Is pending before the Legis
lature of I'cnnsyluinla a bill which, If
passed, will mean tho establishment of
tho forty-eight hour week for women and
minors who work for u living. This bill
was Introduced at tho request of tho
Women's Trado Union Licaguo of I'hlla
derphla, and has tho ncttvo backing of
tho Btato Federation of Lrfibor, the Phila
delphia Central Labor Union, tho Na
tional Young Women's Christian Asso
ciation and tho Consumers' League.
In view of this pending legislation,
It Is certainly to the benefit of atl
conoerned calmly to exnmlno the merits
of this proposed measure. While tho
present writer does not claim to bo en
tirely Impartial, being firmly convinced
that tho conclusions she has arrived at
aro quite ilcfenslblo nnd that they should
bo realized, sho docs claim to have ar
rived at this point by a logical examina
tion of tho situation In tho light of the
best Interests of all who would bo af
fected. Tho opponents of tho eight-hour bill
say that they cannot afford it; It will
ruin their business. Herewith Is the an
swer to that claim from business men
themselves:
"I am very sorry, Indeed, that, owing
to absence from tho city, I shall bo pre
vented from going with you to Harris
burg to present to tho legislative com-
mltteo tho advantages of nn eight-hour
day. Recently we reduced our hours
from fifty to forty-seven, which Is, you
will note, a reduction of 6 per cent In
working time ; whereas, a most careful
comparison of production would Indicate
that our output Is reduced only 3'i
per cent.
Supports rending It 111
"Although you will observe that ouY
working tlmo Is under a forty-eight
hour week, I am personally hoping that
It wilt not bo long before wo can make
another'reductlon In our time, bringing
It to a strictly eight-hour day, or forty
hour week. Of course. It Is a consid
erable handicap to any one manufac
turer to make these reductions If others
In the same line of business are not doing
likewise, and as wo feel that the shorter
week has many advantages for the work
ers, wo strongly advocate the passage
of this bill, so that all manufacturers
will bo working on an equal basis of
time.
"HCNltfr II. COLLINS, Jit."
An extract from letter from Fels &
Co reads'.
"Wo are In receipt of your letter and
In reply would say that wo have for a
number of years been working on eight
hours' time, having dropped from ten -to
nine and then to eight, and feel buro that
the effect lias been good on efficiency
accidents and physical standards. This
reduction was made without any effect
on tho wages. Our strong opinion Is
that bettor results, are obtained and bet
ter work turned out with the shorter
hours. Our experience makes tis bel!ee
that women should not work over eight
hours a day regularly."
Extract from wire:
"At request of Industrial Welfare

bhort Shifts Spell Kfllclenry ,
"The eight-hour day does not make
for efficiency," say the opponents.
In his remarks on the subject Senator
Phelan, of California, said: "There was
greater etllciency by having three
shorter shifts by better paid men the
oil wells were worked for tho entire
twenty-tour hours, having three shifts
of eight hours each than by having but
two longer shifts ; and the increase of
wages has well Justified the change that
they made. Improving their own condi
tions, bettering tho condition, likewise of
the worker, it gave mo stanuaru un
of California a. position In the eyes of
tho Secretary of Labor, who Is so de
voted to the Interest of labor, of an em-
ploer worthy of example.' These facts
were ascertained during .the Investiga
tion Just had last month In California
for the purpose of Inducing other cor
porations to go and do likewise."

To me. however, thcro Is another as
pect to this piece of legislation, for I
do not look at It as an efficiency mcasuro
only. I am not In favor of tho eight
hour day Just because It will not de
crease production, but because It will
nrolong tho lives and protect tho health
of our women workers. Justice Iouls
D. Urandcis, speaking on this question,
has tho following to say:
"The dangers of long hours for women
arisa ifrom their special physical organ
ization, taken In connection with the
strain incident to factory nnd similar
work. Long hours of labor aro dan
gerous for women primarily because of
their special physical organization. In
structure nnd function women aro dif
ferentiated from men.
"Besides these anatomical nnd physl
ologlrnl differences, physicians nre
agreed that women are fundamentally
weaker than men In all that makes for
endurance. In muscular strength, In nerv
ous energy. In the powers of persistent
attention and application. Overwork,
therefore, which strains endurance to
the utmost. Is ' more disastrous to tho
health of women than men, and entails
upon them moro lasting Injury.
Overwork Han Krll Iinctn
"The experience of mhnufacturlng
count! ies has Illustrated tho evil ef
focta of overwork upon the general wel
fare. Deterioration of any large portion
of tho population Ineffably lowers tho
entire community, physically, mentally
and morally. When the health of women
has been Injured by long hours, not only
Is tho working efficiency of tho com
munity Impaired, hut the deterioration
Is handed down to succeeding' genera
tions. Infant mortality ljlsea, while' the
children of married working women,
who sunlvr, nre Injured by Inevitable
neglect. Tho oerwork of future moth
ers thus directly ifttacka tho welfare
of the nation."
What does the eight-hour day mean
to tho working woman? Just this:
RIso 0:30
Breakfast 7:00- 7:30
Walk or tide to work 7:30- 8:00
Work 8:00-12:00
Lunch 12:00- 1:09
Work r. 1:00- 6:00
Walk or ride home 5:00- B:30
Isn't this day long enough? Espe
cially since tho majority of working
women have home duties after the day's
work Is done. Most of them, because
of low wages, have to do their own
washing, mending and sewing. Indeed,
the ancient slogan, "Man's work Is from
Bun to sun, but woman's work Is never
done," still holds good today. Another
reason why working women are In faor
of the shorter workday Is because they
alone know the terrible monotony of
their tasks. How many peoplo know:
That a telephone operator answers
about 2'25 calls per hour (In some ex
changes 276 per hour) and that each
call .requires six different operations?
That many girls in the sewing trades
Bit for long hours In a room roaring
with machinery, watching a machine
that cnrr'es twelve needles or one that
sets 4000 stitches a minuter
That In mills where women formerly
temie(j two i00ms they now are expected
to look out for twelve or sixteen?
Combined Strain Telling
.That In canneries 'the women sorters
must work steadily with their eyes and
a-tentlon fixed on moving conveyors, and
the "cappers" are expected to cap from
fifty-four to eighty cans per minute?
Must we comb'ne the strain of speed,
monotony, piecework with that of long
hours?
We want the eight-hour day because
it will give us more tlmo to rest, more
time to think, more time to see God's
sunshine. We want the eight-hour day
because a shorter workday means a
longer life ; because we are human beings
with hearts and minds. It Is true that
part of the day It may almost seem that
wo are "mere cogs In a machine," but
when tho workday Is done, when jou
face us as neighbors, fellow riders on the
trolley, as your customers In the de
partment stores or perchance as citi
zens of a common community. It is not
tho "cos" that counts, but tho sense of
our Joint alms, of tho Intelligence, sym
patic, responsibility that wo can bring
to tho life of this community. These
are our arguments for the eight-hour
bill, now pending before our Legisla
ture. illinium!
