TUBE SERVICE EXPENSIVE.
Vast Sums Sunk In the Pneumatic
Tube Mail Service.

Washington. June 20.-EXtravagant
and outrageous rentals are being paid
by the government for pneumatic tube
service without corresponding benefit
10 the public, there being little or no
saving of time In the transportation Of
mails Experts who have made thoro
Investigation all agree that the rates
are excessive, especially when it is talk
en- into consideration the small amount
of time gained as between the pneu
matte and the wagon service.
That these rates are beyond all rea-
son is shown conclusivey in New York,
where the system has been in operation
for a number of years. An enormous
rental of s414,145 a year is being paid
by the government in New York, and
the saving of time is only thirty-tive
minutes under most favorable circunl-
stances, while the ordinary saving
ranges from ten to twenty minutes as
compared With the trip from the post
office to the railroad station by wagon
or electric car and the transmission of
mail by the tube service. For this
small saving the government Is paying
nearly half a million dollars, and ac-
cording to the testimony of some of the
officials of the New York office the time
saved is so small that it is hardly worth
consideration.
Augustus b. Maze, superintendent of
mails in the New York postoffice testi-
fled before the commission which in
vestigated the postotfice service that
there was absolutely no saving of time
on ordinary mail, but that there was
small saving on what he termed sup
elemental mail-that is, the mail made
up after the ordinary mail was dis
patched 10 the railroad station. In
other words letters which were deposit
ted in the postoftice fifteen minutes be-
fore the departure of train could
reach the station in time TO catch that
train by use of the pneumatic service
otherwise the letters must be held for
the next train.
Hundreds of pages of testimony show
that the routes established are all short
a majority of them being about a mile
and a half in length The saving in
time is naturally quite small, for with
an ordinary horse it is possible to drive
two miles in twelve or fifteen minutes
1t is the unanimous opinion of all who
have investigated the subject that with
longer route the saving of time will
be greater. But to offset this it is an
indisputable fact that the bulk of mail
collected and delivered in the large cit
les is confined 10 the business sections.
which are located in comparatively
small areas. While it is true the say
ing of time on long distances would
be greater, it is also true that there
is no pressing necessity for tube service
in residence portions Of cities which
are remote from the business sections.

GRAVE QUESTION FOR KANSAS.
IN Ten Days Great Wheat Belt Will
Need Help of $4,000 More Men.

Topeka, Kas., June Estate En-
Lioyment Agent Gerow said last night
that the saving of the 6U.900,000 bushel
wheat crop in Kansas is & grave ques-
ton He has issued call after call for
harvest hands, but apparently his eff
forts are fruitiess. Twenty-nine coun-
ties in the great wheat belt will. in ten
days, need the services Of $4,000 more
men for the harvest than Kansas can
supply. These men must come from
states farther east. Chicago and New
York could furnish these alone. for
more than this number are idle in these
cities. he said, but they will not come
TO Kansas and earn 81 a day and board.
The wheat farmers can not get bind
ing Irvine. The state plant in the peni-
tertiary is running nisht and day TO
furnish Irvine below the trust prices,
but it can not supply the demand.
Sunday the Santa Fe and Rock Island
railroads each brought leo men from
Chicago free to repair bridges and
tracks AS soon as they arrived at
Newton and Mcpherson in the wheat
belt they abandoned the trains and
scattered thru the country to accept
agher wages from the wheat farmers.

Laborers Are Very Scarce In
the Harvest Fields of the
West
HOMES FOR INDUSTRIOUS MEN
Cities Called on to Furnish Aid in the
Wheat Fields of the Western States
Scarcity of Harvest Hands Prom
ises to be Great This Year-Many
Have Already Responded.

Chicago June ga second CALL this
one a hurry up" has been sent To
Chicago by the farmers of the west,
who must have laborers to harvest the
maturing crops. Altho the rush sea-
son of gathering the cereals is still sew
eral weeks off, the demand for hands
~ 900 men soon Will be required to
care for the bountful yield of the
Kansas grain fields and other thou
sands of men will be needed in adjon-
ing states.
The first call on Chicago was made
two months ago, when the Orange
Judd Farmer offered to give farmers
free the names of city people who would
go to the rural parts for the summer.
A great number of city folks We're thus
brought in touch with the country.
but not enough to relieve the short
age
Many Industrious and ambitious
men and women have found homes in

of the Orange Judd Farmer Il still

what we have done is only a drop in
the bucket The corn crop requires
little help outside of the regular hired
help of the farmers. With wheat and
other small grains the case is different.
Harvesting comes on quickly and must
be done rapidly. Vast additions must
be made to the working force in any
district TO care for the yield
Thousands of the unattached, semi
vagabond. lodging house deniZens flock
10 the wheat fields for a months work
There seems TO be a large class of men
who drift from north to south and back
again with the coming and going of
warm weather. Then there are many
small farmers who are able TO leave
their own acres for a short time and
help out their more wealthy neighbors
These men are the best workers known
in the harvest fields.
This year the scarcity promises to
be more pronounced than in former
summers. Prosperity in the cities keeps
many men away from the farms in
spite of all attempts to lure them there.
But what accounts for the situation to
ii greater degree is the fact that there
is larger increase this year in the
acreage OF titled land.
Both in the western states and in
western Canada thousands of acres
OF virgin soil have been plowed this
year. and in the nearer states it APP
pears that the area of pasturage is
the land being put under
The influence of the shortage is seen
in the continued increase in wages paid
on the farms. BY the year men are
getting $25 to $50 month. and day
laborers for the harvests are promised
up to $3.50 day and board"

The boom in the northwestern farm

The whole country was getting lousy
with real estate agents; land gamblers
were at every corner and crossroads;
steady old grangers were losing theil
heads and going to get rich in six mon

loaded last year are all right; those
who went into the game then are left
