A map of the United States show

owing to an understanding or agree
nent, verbal or written, generally the
after, half a dozen financial leaders
control two-thirds of the railway
mileage of the United States and
'hus maintain rates. The article, as
distracted in the Railway Digest,
gives the names of seven or eight
men who thus control los, ,404 miles of

as controlled, is given below. Says
;he latter paper:

being always the largest. The leaves
IF the young trees are preferred
Yielding a better quality of oil, it is
said, though this fact is doubted.
The leaves are stripped from the
trees by women and men who are
hired for the purpose, and who are
paid 25 cents hundred pounds for
the needles. Five hundred pounds is
regarded as an average days work.
The leaves are picked into sacks and
hurriedly sent to the factory. EX-
posure to the sun causes the leaves
so wilt and imPairs the quality of
:he product. In picking, the thickest
punches of leaves are selected, and
the scanty ones neglected. The vast
quantity available, so far beyond any
present demand, permits the picker
10 thus discriminate. The factory at
which the essences and extracts of
the needles are manufactured has a
capacity for handling 1000 pounds of
leaves per day; but it is soon to be
enlarged to about four times its pres
snt size.
In the extraction of pine oil 1000
pounds of green leaves are required
to produce ten pounds of oil. The
process is the ordinary one of dis
tillation. In the manufacture of fiber
the leaves pass through a process of
steaming, washing, drying, ETC., II in
all, occupying four days. Two quail
ties are produced, first and second.
The first, from which no oil has been
distilled, is worth upon the market
about ten cents per pound. The fiber
is elastic and the staple only little
shorter than the green leaf from
which it was made, and with strength
sufficient to enable it to be spun and
woven into fabrics. Mixed with hair,
the fiber makes an excellent mate
rial for mattresses or pillows, and
repose comes quickly when resting
upon them. It is also used as a par
tial filing for cigars, imparting a
flavor not the least disagreeable, and
calming to the nerves. The oil ex-
tracted gives an agreeable favor to
candies. Toilet soaps are made,
strongly impregnated with essential
oil of pine needles.
The fiber itself, after curing, looks
like a slender shaving of some dark
wood, retaining its odor indefinitely
Insects abhor it Oh that account. 1t

SUMMARY.
Cure for Curtain Lectures.

At a stag party recently given in
Kansas City. a pretty and polite
custom was introduced. There were
just 40 guests, and every one had
wife at home. Each on his departure
(about two o'clock III the mOrning)
received a hndsome casllet of sweets
to take to his waiting partner and
family. The outside box was OF
satinwood, costing eight dollars, and
made a pleasant memento Of the oe-
casion. 1t is safe to say there were
no curtain lectures in 20 homes that
night.

messages. With the balloons he will
take 400 small buoys, in the interior of
which the messages will be placed.
These buOys are spherical in shape,
about three inches in diameter, and
are made of copper and cork. There is
a small weight on one side, to act as a
keel when dropped in the water, and
a small metal flag on the other. This
flag or pennant rises about ten inches
above the buoy, and its purpose is to
attract attention. On the pennant
these letters are stamped: Baldwin
Zeigler, 1901" When one Of these bal
looms is to be sent up ten of the buoys
are attached to it by long cord, one
under the other. By an ingenious de-
vice each buoy will automatically re-
lease itself the moment it comes in con-
tact with ice or water and will float
away. The buOys weigh about ten
pounds each, and the release of that
much weight on the the descent of the
balloon will cause it to rise in the air
again and drift for another lOng~dis-
tance. In this way the ten buoys, each
with a message inside denoting the lat
itude and longitude of the ship when
sent up, will be distribSed over wide
area. Evelyn Baldwin has sailed from
New York for Tromsoe. Norway. The
expedition steamer America is now at
Dundee, Scotland. being fitted out, and
is expected to reach TrOmsoe by the
time Mr.. Baldwin gets there. The sup
ply steamer Frithjof is now at from
soc, and as soon as Mr.. Baldwin arrives
the two steamers will proceed to Franz
Josef Land. The start for the pole will
be made from there the latter part Of
July. The expedition will consist of
40 men, Is Siberian ponies and 400 dogs.

It is stated that three-fourths OF
the Irish members of parliament are
teetotalers.
London covers $4,000 acres, Leeds
is next with 200, and Sheffield third
with $3.50.
England imports 42O pounds of
grain year for each inhsbitant of
the country.
Within six years the New Zealand
government has bought back of the
original settlers 324, ,167 acres of land
used for sheep runs and 1880 families
have found homes on them.
The movement for securing better
cottage accommodation for the labor
ers in Ireland is alleged to be creating
ill-feeling on the part Of the farmers
in the south Of Ireland.
Glasgow's population IS 76O, ,329, an
increase in ten years of 1927, a
growth comparing fayorably with
that of American cities. In 1901 GlaS-
Cow contained 77,3S5 inhabitants.
India and CeyIon have competed SO
successfully with China in the pro-
duction Of tea that, whereas in 1880
100000 hundredweight of the leaf
were exported from China, only ,631, :
900 hundredweight left the country in
1899.
Tramps in England are fast grow
ing fewer. In one county there were
about half as many tramps last year
as there were four years ago, and in
another county there were not one
third as many. Enhstments for the
army and navy are considered the
cause of the decrease.
