BERGDOLL AND OTHERS.
PROBLEMS OF THE CANNERIES.
Bergdoll law the wholesale libera
tion of conscientiously objecting
lackers, equipped with new suits of
clothe and full arniy pay up to the
dAy of their discharge, and saw no
reason why he should be discrimi
nated agatnsL Bergdoll Is wealthy
and his methods have always been
e&fcatlonaL but In other respects his
case does not differ much from hun
dreds of others who willfully refused
to take up arms in the defense of the
country. The latter were pampered
&nd petted and sent home to their
mothers the moment all danger was
over. Bergdoll evaded the draft and
should be prosecuted. The conscien
tious objectors who wilfully evaded
service and work of any kind, of
which. there were many, should also
get "theirs."
SOUND ADVICE.
Speaking of industrial unrest.
Roger Babspn, the business statlsti
clan, says:
"Appeals to patriotism have lost
tbe!r force. The only means of
reaching the wage-workers is to let
them learn by experience. Let them
try in a small way some of the
things which they wish to try. !f
they fail, they will have learned for
themselves more than anybody can
tell them. If their experiments are
successful, we all want them."
It has ever been thus. People want
to try out their own Ideas. But there
are always some ideas Which are
obviously unsound and unworkable.
New and better methods, however,
are gained only by trial.
The fruit and vegetable canneries
of the western states are up against
some hard conditions affecting those
Industries.
The high price of sugar and the
shortage of that staple will compell
some of the plants to restrict certain
grades of products.
I There Is an enormous acreage of
1 small fruits that require most sugar
j but this will be heaped out by the
' Juice factories and driers.
I The small fruits grown on, vines
! that were cut down by hard freeea
are going to produce more berries
than was anticipated.
Cherry crops are unusually heavy
in some sections single orchards in
some cases being able to supply one
or more canneries a full pack.
The labor problem Is not going to
be serious as In the vicinity of towns
there will be a large supply of unem
ployed family labor.
There Is going to be absolute nec
essity of the most cordial co-operation
between these Industries, the
proilnrers and the labor employed.
The switchmen's strike and car
.tiortape have tied up approximately
1.100" t ars tinplate and supplies of tin
vans are off 25 to n per cent.
On top of all this lan;e canneries
'in.l they cannot sell their products
jn 9.0 at figures higher than pre-
vailed for the 1919 pack The Manu-
Every family In Springfield and
vicinity should "have one or (more

tution which can he made of great
value to the' people of this commtin

tnd the community spirit. Don't fall

ence holiday outside of Springfield on

real celebration. It Is not too early

something accomplished. Kverythlng

New York state is getting the jump on other states in the
matter of development of future timber lands. Barren cut-over
lands are being replanted aa fast aa cleared with the result that la
t0 to 50 years great tracts for wood pulp and lumber will be avail
able. New York State College for Forestry alone has planted 291.0U4
