preceding presidential election. This
year the association failed to secure a per-

The hall was filled to overfowing long be-
fore the hour set for the meeting, and
many hundreds were turned away.
Shortly after the speaking began Gov

by Chairman Charles A. Moore, and he
acknowledged his very cordial reception
with a few brief remarks. Secretary Taft

 ost9n is the Snly isTse siS Glasgow under one management. Fur thermore, Boston presents the most typically American system because 1t which are destined from now on to make up rapid transit in the larger cities of the United States-subway, street su<eAce and elevated.
 The systems of the two cities repre- sent on the one side the best example of municipal ownership, on the other ownership subjected to State regula- tion. The Glasgow tramways may be called a publicly owned monopoly, for they control their field absolutely; the privately owned monopoly of sub stantially all the services of the city and its nearby surburbs. The Boston by two circumstances; an active com petition for suburban trafflc with the numerous lines of three great steam tenn of public supervision, provided by the Massachusetts laws.
 One of the first of many points of difference to attract the behofder's at tention Is fin the kind of cars used. The American types are sufhciently familiar winter. the longer elevated cars with both end and side doors for overhead tracks, and the open surface car with cross benches for summer; Tn Glasgow blc- -deckers, having more than half their seating capacity on the uncov- cred roof. The average Englishman or little more slowly and demands less protection from the clements than the American so that these cars are toler- confusion and exasperating delays in receiving and discharging passengers along such tremendously busy thor oughfares as Washington Street in rue in New York, or Dearborn Street in Chicago, if 1t were necessary to wait each time a car stopped for sev- the narrow winding stairway to the roof, single file! The roof seats are found to be quite agreeable in pleas cdly otherwise in winter. or on stormy days In any season. since there Is no second roof to give protection on ac- count ccS1os of the many low bridges undet CTS" with covered second stories. were triec in Boston at one time, but found unsatisfactory and abandoned,
 practically all built on one plan, all though some are smaller than the standard type. The Boston Elevated ears of differeRt kinds. selected for their various uses, nearly one-half bo- ing of the open variety for summer rse; The total number of cars oper- about 1,200; in Glasgow, 450. The Glasgow standard car will seat 55 pas seDgers-30 on the roof and 25 inside; the smaller cars seat 50, less than half inside. The open cars in Boston are of varying sizes. seating from 40 to 50 each. and the elevated cars seat 4S. Sc far as the seating capacity of indi- v,dual cars is concerned, the two sys- tems average pretty nearly equal when the open cars are in use in the Amer ican city; in winter Glasgow is ahead Poston closed car seats only 34. But these are all inside seats, be 1t remem- bered, and as the car body is 25 feet Glasgow standard, the inside carrying capacity of the American type, inelud- ing standing room. Is considerably l greater than that of the Scotch. So its all question of taste,' again; if

you prefer standing room inside a closed and warmed car to an exposed seat on the roof you will find that the accommodations, car for car, are more liberal in Boston: but if you prefer the seat and the fresh air, regarless of cold and storm, you win vote for the Glasgow plan.
 As to the amount of service furnish ed the contrasts are quite marked The number of passengers who ride on the Boston lines. more than one-third of whom are carried on free transfers, is about 100000 daily; in Glasgow, 4S5,- 000.or less than half. although the pop ulation served Is about the same Since Boston operates 1900 cars a day and Glasgow 450, 1t appears that In the for- increase one car is run for every ITO passengers, while in the latter there Is but one car for every LOTT. Boston makes much the better showing also in respect to miles of track operated. now about 40, as compared with l39 in Glasgow. measured as single track in either case. On the basis of l.0OO.- 900 population served, Boston has one mile of track for every 2,270 inhabit- ants. and Glasgow one mile for every 7.200.
 Next to the cars, the most curious point of difference Is in respect to fares. A Glasgow conductor issues to passengers different colored tickets at

In this way. Hyomei will be breathed the whole night long, curing while you sleep. In most cases it wfll break up q cold over night.
 The complete Hyomei outfit, consisting of pocket inhaler. a medicine dropper, and bottle of Hyomei costs but one dol- lar. The inhaler win last a lifetime. and If more Hyomei Is needed. extra bottles can be obtained for fifty cents.
 It is the most economical of all reme- dies for the cure of catarrh, and the only one that follows a natural method i7 treating diseases of the respiratory or gans. Physicians advise a change of cli- mate for the cure of cataFrh.

Boston. May 2s.--"AI a matter or taste" many people will say, wnetn- CT the American plan of uniform oS cent fares or the foreign device oI gauging the fare according 10 tne length of the ride is the more econom- ical and satisfactory to the patrons or street railway service"
 But it is quite as much q practicat question as one of taste-probaoly more so; and it is only one of the many re- markable points of difference between British and American transportation methods in large cities. A careful in : vestigation of these differences has Just been made, and in order to avoid any danger of unfairness to the foreign plan the city of Glasgow was seiecteh as offering what is universally admit ted to be one of the best, perhaps the very best, of the "tramway systems in Great Britain. This system is cer- tainly the most successful from the standpoint of those who believe in mu- nictpal ownership. for Glasgow has op- erated it's own street railways for ten years, come July next.
 For purposes of fair comparison with Glasgow the Boston system suggested itself as more directly available per haps than that of any other American municipality for the double reason that the population served. including the suburbs in both cases. is substantially

The advantage thus gained is followed by bending every effort toward procuring an early crop the following season. The other measures are of general nature--early planting, thorough tiliage. planting the rows further apart. thinning the plants in the row, and Q freer use of fertilizers. The advent of the lboll-weevil Is perhaps the greatest event in cotton culture since the invention of the cotton gin, excepting of course the Civil War.

 Cotton Growing.

Country Life .a America.
 Now that 1t is clear that the boll-w weevil can never be exterminated, 1t is evident that the methods of cotton culture must be radically changed. The weevii damages the late or main crop. Henceforth every effort must be made to get an early crop. cultivators must destroy. by blowing up. windrowlng and burning. all the cotton stalks fin the field as soon as the weevils become so numerous that practically all the squares and boils are being punctured. Of greatest advantage is the reducing for the next year of the number of the weevils by the dAstrnation of the plants in the fall
