CHEAP TRANSPORTATION.
THE METROPOLIS OF AMERICA TO BE TAKEN
INTO CONSIDERATION

THE METROPOLIS OF AMERICA TO BE TAKEN
INTO CONSIDERATION.
Yesterday evening at nine o'clock a meeting Of the
directors Of the Cheap Transportation Association
held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel Mr.. Charles Watrous
took the chair in the absence Of President Baker The
Secretary read tho minutes Of the last meeting, AFTER
which he submitted the report OF committee APP
pointed TO give the arguments showing the necessity Of
new cheap transportation freight railway the West,
which shall be under the control OF merchants and will
not be influenced by changes in tie stock market The
following is a summary Of this report-
The report speaks of the depressed condition of bust
ness showing how commerce has been diverted from us
by high freight tariffs, and stating tue more favorable
position of Baltimore and Philadelphia in this respect
The committee showed that in the space OF two years
the New York Central Railroad had added to its stock
the OF SAT 936 000 creaed out of nothing but the
win of its directors, and the mixture Of paper and
printers ink.n They urged that II the company had
lowered its freghts instead of adding to their stock,
New York would have maintained Its native position
in the race for commercial supremacy with equal rail-
way facilities New York need never fear fair eompet
ton. They argued that the volume of business done
entitled the city TO lower rates. Canals would DO too
slow for trans ortation, as time has become i'm
p0rtant element in commercial transactions The COM
mttee therefore suggested the necessity OF double
track freight railroad to Chicago and ST. Louis, with
ultimate extension to other distributing points The
cost OF such a road IL said, would be about
so 600 600 but New York loses much than this
every year reduced profits on merchandise reduced
for transportation. The benefit to the West
would, doubtless engage that part of the country to
assist in paying the expenses OF building such road
The merchants Of Baltimore and Philadelphia have de-
voted part of their capital to this purpose and control
their lines while New Workers have let their lines
pass into the hands OF stock jobbers railroad
duties to the public because II is for public USE
which private citizen or a manufacturing company
does not The committee strongly urged AN agitation
for the purpose of starting such loan rs they sug
gested.
The report accepted and ordered TO be printed
tha az of AZ
tho principal railroads IN the country.

the Berkshire blood greatly predomi-
mating. The Berkshire has been most
carefully bred for many years. START
;nr from what was originally a large
breed, possessing many good points,
and of a black and white and yellow
i.h sno,ted color. The Improvement
of the old Berkshire hog was begun Id
England by Lord Darlington; who
d;p3 in 1899 and most of the best herds
now trace back 10 this original I'M
proyed herd. BY careful breeding the
yellowish color has been gotten nd OF,
and the white has been conhned 10
the feet. a spot between the eyes, and
- some cases a few white hairs near
the shoulders, although there are
lords in which these last white marks
are entirely bred out. The Birkshire,
as we know him, is moderately large
hoo. with q smooth, round carcass,
broad across the shoulders, with we'll
developed and round hams, a long,
deep fitch, very fine, small, bouy legs
and feet, short face and snout, and
covered with a good coat of. long,
silky, black hair. Ia many good Berk-
sbires. the blueish or slate-colOred tint
and thin hair of the Neapoiitan hog,
which has been crossed upon 1t, are
very conspicuous but it Is question
able If the black, we'll haired animal
is not the more vigorous and thrifty
sort. One of the chief characteristics
of the Berkshire is the evenness with
which it breeds. AT the exhibitions
and in the breeders yard whole litters
may be seen that scarcely vary from
each other, and hardly to be distin-
gushed one from another in appear
ance, and pen after pen may be ex-
amined without any marked variation,
excepting in those cases in which, as
already stated, the Neapolitan cross is
apparent. After fifty years of careful
breeding this is not more than might
be expected, and the result appears in
an animal which, on the whole, Is
probably the most profitable to the
breeder, the feeder, the butcher and
the packer. There is no pig that is
more useful TO the man who keeps but
one, and more to the farmer who feeds
a hundred, if the amount OF meat in
proportion to the food consumed is
considered. There is more lean in pro-
portion to the fat than in most other
if not in all breeds, and the bone and
olIal are very light. The color is not
only skin deep, but the color lies in
the outer skin, which is all removed
By scalding, and a Berkshire ham is
not to be distinguished from that of a
white hog, if the hair has not been left
on to tell the story. 1t is no little evi-
dence of lis good qualities that the
Berkshire has become so rapidly pOpu-
lar, spite of the prejudiees against It's
color, as to suppIant, along with the
/ Essex, all the white breeds, at one Of
the most prominent Eastern State
fairs.-HOme Journal.
