Impoverished soil, like impov

fertilizer to use for different

If your blood is impoverished
your doctor will tell you what
you need to fertilize it and give
it the rich, red corpuscles that
are lacking in it. It may be you
need a tonic, but more likely you
need a concentrated fat food,

The reason given for the advance
is the higher cost of labor and mate

LABOR LEADERS TO
MEEINEXTMONDIY
Minneapolis, Minn.. Nov. 10. —More
than two million working men and wo
men throughout the. United States and
Canada will watch with interest the
opening of the twenty-sixth annual
convention cf the American Federation
of Labor in this city next Monday,
and the work dono here during the
week will directly affect hundreds of
thousands of persons. Delegates ar
rived today from all parts of the
country. Some came from as far west
as California. "Washington and Ore
gon and s~»r.t! from ivlai;rj and Massa
chusetts, while the Coi.th promises to
be more largely represented than at
any of the previous conventions of the
federation. All classes of labor, from
the most skilled to the commonest and
most poorly paid, will be represented.
The convention this year promises
to be of far more than ordinary in
terest and importance. The federa
tion has come to the turning point of
its career. Heretofore, as an organi
zation, it has taken no part in politics.
As a matter of fact, the constitutions
and by-laws of many of the big nation
al and international labor bodies that
make up the federation, have forbid
den participation in politics. During
the past year a radical step was taken
by President Samuel Gompers when
he announced that the American Fed
eration of Labor would heneeforth take
an active part in poltics and use all its
strength and influence to place leaders
01 sympathizers with organized labor
in public office. The step was taken
by President Gcmpers almost wholly
upon his own responsibility, with the
sanction of the executive council of the
federation and the evident approval
of many prominent labor leaders
throughout the United States. Others,
however, have not hesitated to severe
ly condemn the federation for the
course it has taken. Those opposed
to the political programme include, it
is said, some of the strongest and most
influential organizations affiliated with
the federation. Their delegates arf
prepared to combat the Gompers idea
in the convention next week and it
is probable a lively contest will ensue.
