RATES:
DON'T SELL YOUR HOGS.

The Memphis Commercial, like
the DEMOCRAT, gives this advice to
the farmers:
"For some time past Northern buy
ers have been buying all the hogs
they could find for slae in this State
and Arkansas, and probably other
Southern States. Large numbers OF
hogs have already been bought in
this section and shipped North,
This means that there is scarcity OF
hogs in the North and West, and the
packers are now buying them up
while they are comparatively cheap
and at less than their real value, ex'
pecting to sell them back in this sec
ton, and perhaps to the very same
parties whom they bought in the
form of hams, sides, etc, ana ~
greatly increased prices. This is a
very foolish policy on the part OF
farmers. 1t is well known that this
section has not enough hogs to sup
ply the home demand, and the ship
ment of hogs to the North simply
means that we will have to buy them
back again at prices which will, from
present indications, be higher than
for many years past Already during
the past two weeks meats have adj
vanced more than q cent a pound,
with indications for stillhigher prices.
We want to give the farmers earnest
and kindly warning against selling at
this time"

Building a Railroad on Faith.

From South Texas came q man who
built 500 miles of railroad with IS bill
and faith, and the bill was Q borrowed
one. He moved up from Corpus Christi
to San Antonio with all Of his posses
sions heaped on tw, wheeled cart. He
got a charter to build railroads from
San Antonio to Arkansas Pass. BE graded

than one shovel Of dirt with his own
hands. The receiver Of another road
loaned this lndefatigable builder enough
old rails for q mile of track. IN dis
tant part of the State was purchased an
engine which had been condemned si1
wears before and sent to the shops to be
wrecked for scrap iron. Two old cars
were picked up somewhere else at bar
gain. And that old engine, drawing
those old cars, steamed into San An

Pr With one mile of old-rail track and
with the equipment Of the old engine
and the two old cars, Uriah Lott started
the Arkansas Pass system. There has
been some tall fnanciering in the history
of railroad building in this country, but
there isn't anything which for dazzling
pluck quite approaches the story Of the
building of this 600 miles OF road IN
South Texas. To the one mile Of track
three were added-three miles by q
dicker for some secondhand rails which
a street-car company had bought from q
narrow-gauge company. On this basis
8 credit trade was made with a Philadel.
phia rolLug-mill for ten miles of rails.
When they arrived there wasn't money
enough in the treasury to pay the freight.
But it was got somehow. Ten miles OF
track gave the foundation for bonds,
which built forty miles more, and so the
system grew into its present proportions.

system rode from San Antonio to Chi
