We do not say, and we never have said, that wars are always to be avoided.
But strikes, like wars, are evidences of imperfect civilisation, are only to be undertaken in the most pressing necessity, and to be ended as speedily as possible. In both cases the victors are sufferers but in the case of strikes both the victor-sufferers and the conquered-sufferers are our neighbours and the injuries inflicted on both are inflicted on the community at large. ON STRIKE IN DEAN FOREST. Though the strike in the Forest of Dean is not yet at an end, there are signs that it will soon be terminated. It has been a very deplorable business, however it is looked at.
Viewing it from an impartial standpoint, two conclusions seem to be irresistible. One is, that there ought never to have been a strike at all the other, that although begun, it ought to been very quickly ended. No AN AGRICULTURAL UMBRELLA, interested observer can also help seeing that the strike can only end in one way, and that When the dying fanner admonished h.s son to that way cannot he favourable to the men. against a rainy day the youth pat a literal As to the origin of the strike there is the usual construction on the parental advice, and purchased a stock of umbrellas.

It may be safely argued that as a protectioa a3aia3t rain uia both were to blame.

The idea of a farmer throwing water on s-u Ko bis own crops at harvest time is a refreshingly novel in one way, and that that "ay cannot one ora gbould be allowed to remain in silo favourable to the men. We say so because or a least three months. What takes place during that is almost invariably the result of a strike, that period, and what is the product?

In New England and tbe Middle States Forest col.lers especially know to their cost, of America, where ordinarily, it takes the produce of uicai, from two to two and a half acres to keep a single head from their experience or former strikes.
It is ca ttle, those who have practised ensilage have also a great mistake to suppose that employers unanimously stated that they can maintain in perfectly benefit by a strike. Their capital is lying idle, good condition, as cheaply in winter as in summer, a certain amount must always be spent in two cows an acre on that land which employed for .1 ensilaged crops.
