FARMERS OWN THE RAILROAD.

vestment.

Ramsey county is one of the few
communities in the country that
boast a railroad built by the farmers
themselves for the purpose of trans
porting their produce to markets
successful venture, says the Bis
marck Tribune. The stockholders Of
the Farmers road met at Garskes re-
Gently and it was decided to issue
bonds enough TO cover the indebted
ness Of the road. Up to this time the
Indebtedness of the road had been
secured only by a. mortgage and by
a few of the principal stockholders
who have been liable for the debt.
A report of the financial condition
Of the road showed it very prosper
GUS. The gross earnings Of the road
since last October amount to some
thing like $21, 900, while the net earn
ings amount to about $4,000. The
total Indebtedness Of the road ID now
about $f03, 900. II can be seen that
the total indebtedness can be paid
IN about four years at the present
rate Of earnings. The earnings, hove
ever, will be much greater in the fu-
ture than they have been in the past.
This report ought to put complete
quietus on the rumor that the road
has been sold to the 500 or any other
party. The Farmers railroad still
lives and will no doubt be on earth
for years to come.

A reader. young man. writes for
suggestions as to how best to carry on
small farm and says that he has al
ways lived in a city and knows nothing
practical about farming. AS he says
he intends to take up agriculture for a
permanent business and as it may safe
~ be assumed that he wishes to buy
his experience as cheaply as possible,
we would suggest that he first go and
work for year for some thorough and
successful farmer in the community
where he expects to 60 to farming. A
year SO spent, coupled with the reading
Of books and papers treating on agri-
culture, would enable him to take up
his work for himself in an intelligent
and probably successful manner.

Hon. Cheap BaEi,,gI; Powder l.
Made. ..-

Made. go
A seizure of allot of "cheap' bak-
ing powder by the authorities of a
neighboring city has exposed the
character of the low priced brands
of baking powders which many
manufacturers are Offering through
out the country. The price of the
powders first attracted attention to
them. Samples were taken and
analysed: The official report of the
analysis show the stuff to be ''alum
powders, I composed cheaply of
alum, sulphuric acid and pulverized
rock The powders were declared
dangerous to health and several
thousand pounds were confscated
and destroyed.
Physicians have frequently eau
toned consumers against mixing
food with these so-called cheap"
baking powders. They are all
found, when analysed, to contain
large percentage of alum and sui
phuric acid to which are added va
rious sorts of filling matters some
times both injurious and nasty. ~
The high class, cream of tartar
baking powders, are the most eco
nomical and wholesome and should
always be selected for use. They
will be found cheaper in the end,
besides making the food better and
more healthful.

KING EDWARD SETS FASHIONS.
British MOnarch's Views ON Mems An.
parel-Shows Partially to Knee
Brooches and Blue Ties.

Court or official costume is, of
course, de rigueur in London, but
King Edward is concerning himself
not only with regulations for what
costume men shall wear at court
functions and the parties he attends,
but is seeking to max. an innovation
in the ordinary evening garb of gem
tlemen.
When his majesty went to Lord
and Lady Rothschild's party recent
ly he intimated to his hosts that he
would like all their male guests to
appear in knee breaches and decora-
lions, to quote the invitation cards,
which did not specify any other arti-
Gle Of habiliment. Similarly, prior to
the Gymkhana. which was to have
been held at Ranelagh, the kings
equerry conveyed to that club the
notification that King Edward would
expect to see all the men wearing silk
hats, panamas being especially
tabooed. However, rain prevented
the function.
AS for the modification in evening
dress It is one that will probably ap-
peal to men of portly build. For
years past the, king has worn white
vest slip, with morning coat. This
season he has adopted the same idea
for evening dress This will neces-
sarily involve the wearing Of black
vests instead Of white ones, which
now nine out Of every ten are wear
ing. ss
The king has also shown decided
partiality for bright blue ties, but mo-
body seems to be blowing his exam
pie il this particular.

Fixing the Responsibility.

The point in the finding of the an
thracite coal commission which is of
most public interest is that both in
ferentially and specifically it fixes the
responsibility for the strike upon the
operators.
In deciding that the small increase
in pay which was asked for by the
miners should have been granted the
commission informs the American
people in effect that the suffering and
extortion to which they were SUBJ
jected last fall and winter were
wholly unnecessary and were the re-
suit not of an unjust demand by labor
but of the arrogance and selfishness of
few men in control Of the coal bust
ness.
1t is this brutal spirit which leads
to most of the serious labor disputes.
Sometimes it is found on one side and
sometimes on the other. Wherever it
is it is barbarouS, and the whole force
of an informed public opinion should
be united against it.-Chicago ChrOn-

Many New Brigadier Generals.

There are now in the army very few
officers who served through the war OF
the rebellion, and they have spent
forty years in the service. They have
been promoted from grade to grade,
until most of them are now at the top
of the list of coionelS in the various
corps, and it is the policy of the gov
eminent to confer upon these grizzled
veterans the only honor and reward
that can be given them without a
special act of congress. Therefore.
when there is a vacancy in the grade
of brigadier general. it is the habit of
the President to promote as many COL
onels as are eligible, enc after the
other. and then place them on the re-
tired list, Just now all the officers
who went into the Union army in 1852
are eligible for retirement under what
is known as the forty-year law, which
accounts for the large number of such
promotions that have been made dur
ing the past winter. Almost without
exception these veterans are without
any property or income beyond their
pay, and is considered not only the
duty but the privilege Of the Presi-
dent to exercise the authority grant
ed to him by the laws to add as much
as possible to. their comfort for the
rest of their lives.

LARGE EGG SUPPLY.
Stores Will Remember Their Losses Of
Last Year.

"NEw YORK, March 2l.-Reports
from almost every section in the coun-
try indicate that the production of
eggs this summer will be greater than
in years. and the question of basis
for a price for storage is now being
widely discussed. The opinion of
many prominent spectators is that
there Will be more eggs this year than
they will know what to do with.
SIN looking back over the business
last year the fact that the cost of
storage eggs was too high is evident.
and as result many cases were sold
at a loss; some storage eggs were
offered in February for 50, with few
takers.
"What the large spectators will do
under the circumstances is matter of
uncertainty, but the losses, fresh in
the minds of holders of stock put in
at last springs prices. should make all
of the opinion that the prices for stor-
age should be much lower than last
wear -
