Total 50 SIS 80 372
Excess of assets over liabilities 500. 49,, ,ods
Not earnings and total revenue
for lss9 .SSs2 26i, 557
| From these figures some interesting
facts may be gathered. In the first
place, the railroad property Of all kinds
exceeds their liabilities by nearly $500 e.
000,O0 this reckoning all the capital at
par. But much Of the stock, even Of
those roads paying good dividends, can
be bought in the markets much below
So that if the Government were to take
all the railroads at the valuation
fixed by the market to-day it is likely
that their assets will be fully a third
more than their liabilities But even
on the basis Of the figures given, it
would be a good investment for the
Government, for figuring the liabilities
as given, it will be seen that the not
revenue would pay a dividend of nearly
or quite four per cent on the whole
amount It would be perfectly safe to
say then for the Government TO buy all
the railroad stocks and bonds at the
prices prevailing at this time, and issue
its own bonds to be denominated rail-
guarantee four per cent, they would
be taken as fast as they could be print
ed, and not one dollar Of tax would ever
have to be levied on the peoply to pay
principal or interest This is a brief
sketch OF how the Government can buy
the railroads We will now consider
the probable efficiency Of the service
rendered.
Let us look for a moment az the Ma
tional postal system. Does any one say
that IL is not as a rule efficient? Or
does any one think for a moment that
private corporation or individual could
render as good service for as little
money! We believe not The United
States postal service is satisfactory, and
IL has gradually been cheapened- until
il has almost reached the possible
limit Had 10 been in the bands of
company or companies we believe it
would cost at least five cents to-day %
send a letter to any point now reached
for two. Private corporations do not
voluntarily cut down their customary
charges
Granting the cheapness and efficiency
Of the mail serv ce there Is no reason
why, with the Government owning tho
railroads. both freight and passenger
service might not be conducted on a
somewhat similar basis And what Is a
very important fact all the roads being
run under one system. and the hours OF
train movements being made TO har-
monize ali over the country without
would be an increased dispatch Of busi-
ness, providing a greater degree Of Ell
cheney than now exists
As one Of the benefits to the people
this efficiency OF service may be count
ed But that is not the greatest one.

Applying Wood Ashes.

Leached wood ashes contain about 6 per cent of phosphoric acid and 24 per cent, of potash-two valuab- le fertilizers for number of crops and about 24 per cent. of lime which when applied to the soil, has the effect of rendering available plant food that is already in the soil. On land that has been crop uutil at least some of the elements of plant food have decreased, so that full average crops cannot be made, wood ashes are worth all the way from l5 to 25 cents per busheI.
 They can be applied to nearly all kinds of fruit with profit. With potatoes they are especially valuable either applied in tue hil or sr.,ttv-eI

broadcast and worked well into the soil. Onions are another crop that can in many cases be largely bepe- fitted by an application of wood ashes.
 If applied in the orchard, a good plan is to stir the soil thoroughly and then apply broadcast and work well in. The soil can be stirred as far as the branch extend.
 With onions one of the best plans of applying is to prepare the soil in a good tilth ready for the seed or buttons, and then scatter the ashes as evenly as possible over the surface and then, with good rake work into the soil; then mark out the rows and plant; or the seed can be planted and then the ashes scattered over the surface; sufficiently into the soil. The roots of the onions grow very near the surface and there is no necessity for working the fertilizer deep into the soil.
 When there is good supply of ashes they can be applied broadcast for potatoes, working well into the soil. Very good results can be ob- tained by applying in the hill. Mark out the rows the proper dis tance apart and then put a small quantity of ashes where each hill is to grow; Is inches apart in the TOW is good distance, stir into the soil well, and then plant the seed and cover, This places the fertilizer in a position where it can be reacly reached by the roots of the plant. It is bot good plan to have the ashes come iE direct contact with the tubers; hence good care should be taken to incorporate well with the soil before planting.
 Ashes aid to make stiff soil more friable, and can be proftably used with nearly Ill garden ortruck crops. Republic.

The Arab Horse.

MT. Wilfred Blunt, a noted Eng. glish breeder of Arab horses, gives it as his opinion that the Arab be- longs to the original wild races of Africa rather than of Asia, and was introduced to southern Arabia by way of Abyssinia, whence 1t IS historical that 1t spread northward. He was not known in Europe be. fore the Mohammedan conquest, but since then his blood has spread through all lands visited by com munication with Mecca, through the pilgrimage. The Barb of north Africa, the Andalusian horse of Spain, the Turk, the Persian and the Turcoman have all been largely infused for centuries with Arab blood. The first Arab blood in England was probably brought through Spain and France, and latter from Palestine by the crusa- ders.-N. Y. Times.

A Few Points of Etiquette.

A Few Points of Etiquette.
 In the mad whirl of the cotilion, if you wear ready made clothing bought from an irresponsible dealer, and hear b-z-z-t that don't har- monize with the F string on the bass fiddle, 1t is entirely correct and proper not to forward and back" according to the commands of the figure caller, but to back straight ahead without baking until you reach the wall, when a pin neatly utilized may cover your embarrass- ment and retreat People who snicker under such circumstances should be put outsiIe the pale of good society.
 When invited out to dinner and you inadvertently get d huge mouth ful of mince pie that is hot enough to melt the solder off a gass pipe, tangled up in your epiglottis, do not act as if you had the whooping cough, but arise calmly and with slight-of-hand movement toss the offending morsel behind the majnlica dog in the corner, meantime pat ting his head as though you thought him alive. This graceful act never fails to win the heart of your hostess who thinks you intend her faithful friend to partake of the festivities.
 Some writer on etiquette, good many years ago, said that it was perfectly proper to eat fried chichen with the fingers. l have often noticed people Seize on wing and rip it open like they would tear yard of clothing material off a bolt of calico, and So tie cracking of the crazy bone was aa lible all over the dining room. 1t is true that some fried chickens require heroic treatment, but when an apprentice in etiquette tries to rlz thc goose Aesir off the second joiat of a Louis XIV hen and s4ai. ts d streak of gravy into the eya of his neighbor, 1t does seem that new code re- garding the best malasr of shatter- ing the remains Of hard boiled fowl should be iAt;,:s ',ct.d.
