WILL MOVE Within TWO MONTHS
Pennsylvania Railroad Freight Car
Shops to Go to Todd's Cut in
Short While.

It is now the belief that the Pennsyl-
vania railroad freight car repair shops
will be removed from this city TO the
new shops at Todd's Cut, within two
months. This viii be the first of the
departments to move out, it is thought,
as the building of the elevated through
the yards of the shop has greatly in
terfered with the work. and the re-
moval will take place just as soon as
the shops can be finished and work on
them is being pushed with all haste.

PENNIES AND NIcKELs IN THE BOX

Ona recent Sunday New ork pas

MANY uickels into the contribution
Mate. Two Jersey City pastors have
inst uttered rebukes to their parish
toner's for making One-cent offerings,
taking care, however, to state that
they we're not referring to persons who
gave cents honestly because they
could afford to give no more. "They,"
said the preachers, 'are robbing them
selves, and should give nothing"
These rebukes followed curiously the
recent revelation at the pastors twen-
tieth century exercises at a Manhattan
church concerning the sources OF the
Darish income. The showing was
made that the prosperity of this
church rested not mainly upon its lew
rich members, but upon the poor peo-
pie, who, by the means OF their pen
MES and nickels, piled up $4,000 in
wear. These small contributors are
content and happy in their giving. 1t
would appear to layman that policy
and churchmanship would alike forbid
the discouraging of small offerings,
even when theyinvolve self-sacrafce-
the real measure of every gift.
Great business combines do not hesl-
tate TO go into the eighths and six
teenths of cent for profits sake, and
those fractions count up to nations
disouietude. The probability that
churches can afford to go further than
soulless corporations and "despise the
day of small things" is not clear.

TO AID THE PHILIPPINES.

Aguinaldo, for while chief of the

the development OF Philippine agri-

Give the Farmers Their Share.

From the Perry Home Journal.
Frequently the declaration is made
that this is an unitarian age,
and certain it is that in education the
tendency toward practical instruction
along all lines is growing. 10 learn
how to do, as well as how to think,
seems to be the increasing purposes.
In this, as in all lines of organized
effort, our farmers, the largest class
of southern citizenry, have received
the smallest share of state aid. They
deserve and are entitled to their full
quota, and justice demands that they
receive 1t.
For many years there has been in
Georgia an agricultural college" re-
ceiving state aid annually. but until
last year there was not in that college
any course of agricultural instruction
save lectures. Even now that course
is not what the name implies. Our leg
islators should see to it that The r. shall
ue cessation of this fraud, an. that
in truth this institution must be an up-
to-date technical school of agricul-
ture where the students will be taught
not only the theory but the practice
of farming.

The Cause of unhappy Marriages.

From the WaycrosS Herald
A Georgia editor has figured out
that nine-tenths of the unhappy mar
riages are the result of green human
calves being allowed to run at large in
the society pastures without Yokes on
them. They marry aud have children
before they do mustaches, they are
fathers of twins before they are pro-
prietors of two pair of pants. and the
little girls they marry are old women
before they are twenty years old. Oc-
casionally one of these gosling mar
riages turns ont all right, but it Is Il
case of luck. If there was law
against young galoots sparkling and
marrying before they cut their eye
teeth we suppose the lutte cusses
would evade it some way, but there
ought to be something against it.

There may have been a few others.
There was but one negro present,

UNIMPROVED ROADS.

MIR. F. H. Hitchcock, chief OF the
bureau of foreign markets, recently
gave an interesting address at good
roads convention. The subject OF
transportation is one of the most i'm
portant matters that have to be consid-
cred by Mr.. HitchcOck's bureau, and
in the course of his remarks he stated
it was of as much interest to his de-
partment to have the cost of transpor-
tation between the farm and town re-
duced to a minimum as it was to reduce
the cost from the coast to Liverpool
Poor roads from the farm to the
market figure in foreign competition
and it is a known fact that taking the
average haul of ten miles to market at
25 cents per ton per mile, the cost be-
inc $3.50, the amount is twice that
charged for transporting the same
produce to Liverpool. Thirty years
ago. says Mr.. Hitchcock, 1T cost ~
cents for transporting wheat from Chi
cago to New York, while 1T now costs
9 cents, and where it formerly cost $40
from New York to Liverpool it now
costs $3.50.
The cost of transportation has been
reduced very materially in every way
except from the farm to the market,
which still remains the same as thirty
years ago. and all because of unimproy-
ed roads
