The Montevedio Leader says: The
farmers who read and think and who
are bending all their energies toward
securing the most improved stock and
and in adopting the most approved
methods; who till their brains as well
as their soil and feed their minds as
well as their cattle; they are the indie
pendent farmers Of the near future,
while the farmers who starve their
minds and fields and believe a scrub"
is as good as a thorough bred; who
read little, think less and gain no
knowledge from their own or their
neighbors experience: who believe in
so managing their farm business as to
have four months Of work and eight
months of loafing aud who gain more
satisfaction from a game Of old sledge
than from a good book; they are the
scrub farmers of the future and their
days are full Of trouble.

Northwestern Farmer: Flour is
peculiarly sensitive to atmospheric in
fuences; hence it should never be
stored in room with sour liquids,
nor where onions or fish are kept, nor
any article that taints the air of the
room in which it is stored. Any
smell preceptible to the sense will be
absorbed in the -four. Avoid damp
cellars or lofts where q free circulation
of air can not be obtained. Keep in a
cool, dry, airy room and not exposed
to freezing temperature, nor to in
tense summer or to artificial heat for
any length of time above 20 to IS de-
grees Fahrenheit. 1t should not come in
contact with grain or other substances
which are liable to heat. Flour should
be sifted, and the particles thoroughly
disintegrated and then warmed before
baking. This treatment improves
the color and baking properties of the
dough. The sponge should be pre-
pared for the oven as soon as the yeast
has performed its mission, otherwise

PLENTY Of Room for More Railroads.

A careful study of the present railroad systems
of this country will show to an unbiased mind
that it is tletusion that the time has been
reached to call halt. AS the Indicator says:
ut is folly to talk of country increasing in
population wealth and production, as this
country is, having too many railroads, particu-
larly as the life of the railroad system scarcely
ante-dates the life of men not yet considered
very old Utah and Nevada and Idaho com
prise little worlds by themselves. All the great
mines ever known in the United States are in
this basin There are many other mineral re-.
sources they have-iron, coal, copper, sulphur,
slate, marble, bsmuth, tin without doubt,
lead, anthony, arsenic, sulphuric acid, ETC. -
which might and ought to be developed. Mar
rowgauge roads could now be built north
ward into Idaho and southwark into
Nevada almost as cheap as good wagon
roads. They could be owned in the East
&nd--the money borrowed to build them being
spent in building them and not stolen--could be
finished ready to run with interest bearing in
debtedness of not more than SIC, 900 mile. This
would permit them to be run and to make money
on rates that would bankrupt ordinary roads.
Up to the present time there have been con-
structed in this country about Ia, 900 miles Of
railway lines, and out OF this great extent of
line it would be difficult to find ten consecutive
miles not in daily use. And if any portion is
not employed to the profit of proprietors it is
useful to the sections through which it may run,
and in time win yield profit. In the past five
years there has been added to the railway sys-
TEN over $4,000 miles of new road, and of this
there is not single line that the
public desire to see removed Parallel and
competing roads have been constructed, that can
scarcely claim to have appeared in response to
public demand. yet they find employment and
in time will develop paying traffic, while they
materially aid in bringing out the resources st
the sections through which they lie. Being con-
structed they will continue to exist, and Of ne
cessity win have to be maintained. Railroad
building has not come to standstill because
there are no more roads needed, but owing to
the fact that Wasl-street spectators have de-
stroyed confidence in all railroad securities and
undertakings Capital is not willing to 70 into
railroad. even out in Utah. until the power of
individuals and cliques to destroy values is

Complimentary to the Management of tn
Union Railway Company.


The management Of the Union Railway Com
pany is credited with keeping matters running at
the UnionDepot at about 80 per cent. less ex
pense than the same work is done at other rail-
road centers. Take the baggage department for
instance. There are five roads running into the
Union Depot at Pittsburg, there are forty-tw
men employed about the depot, thirty four in
the baggage department. There are ten roads runs
ming into the Columbus o., depot; nineteen men.
are employed in the baggage department Five
roads run into the Pennsylvania depot at Chi
cago; thirty two men are employed in the bag
gage department. Nine roads run into the
Union Depot at Kansas City; thirty two men are
employed as baggagemen. Thirteen roads
run into the St Louis Union De
pot; thirty one men are employed in the
baggage department. There are fifteen roads
running into the Union Depot at Indianapolis
and sixteen men only are employed in the bag
gage department. In the ticket department the eK-
hibit is fully as favorable to the indianapolis
Union railway service Theeane is true of the
police andswitching service on the Union tracks.
The economy of e. j. Peck John
Brough and David Macy, the managers,
of the affairs of the Union Railway Company
thirty years ago has been carried out by the
arrangements Of the interests since, and proba-
bly, will be during the lifetime of Uncle Billy
jackson, the secretary and treasurer of the com
pany for thirty years. While such rigid
economy is practiced little complaint is heard
from the travelling public unless it be regarding;
the difficulty in obtaining information about
trains When there are dozen or more
trains in the depot and on the outside, strangers
become confused and were there an information
bureau near the center of the depot or were
some of the depot police less gruff in their an
swers, when information is asked, it would no
doubt be appreciated by the travelling public.

says: 1T is to be feared that one of the results
of recent excessive railway construction, tho
which number of companies have been sub

dition Of the roadway and equipment
of some lines, which will increase tho
danger of accidents. To render the best

almost boisterous in his activity, bnt after
leaving his master he became morose and
sulky. He rarely left the hotel. After he
had been in his new quarters day or SO it
