Rnilroad Rate I,ee,slation.

Testifying before the Senate COM
mittee at Washington, Interstate Com
MERGE Commissioner Prouty said in
discussing the proposition to give to
that commission the power to regulate
railway rates:
Il think the railways should make
their own rates. 1 think they should
be allowed to develop their own bust
ness. l have never advocated any law,
and l am not now in favor Of any law,
which would put the rate making pow
er into the hands of any commission or
any court. While it may be necessary
to do that some time, while that is
done in some States at the present
time, while 1t is done in some coun-
tries, am opposed to 1t. The
railway rate is property. 1t Is all the
property that the railway has got. The
rest of its property is not good for any
thing unless 1t can charge a rate. Now
it has always seemed to me that when
rate was fixed, if that rate was an
unreasonable rate, it deprives the rail
road company Of its property pro
tanto. 1t is not necessary that you
should confiscate the property Of a
railroad; it Is not necessary that you
should say that it shall not earn three
per cent or four per cent. When you
put in a rate that Is inherently unrea-
sonable, you have deprived that com
pany Of dts rights, of its property, and
the Circuit Court of the United States
has Jurisdiction under the fourteenth
amendment to restrain that.
l have looked at these cases a great
many times, and 1 can only come to
the conclusion that railroad company
is entitled to charge fair and reason
able rate, and if any order of com
mission, If any statute Of State Legis
lature takes away that rate, the four
tenth amendment protects the railway

Late Hatched Chicks.

While every poultryman knows well
the advantages of the early matched
chicks, especially as layers for fall and
winter eggs, the late-hatched bird is
not to be ignored, especially on the
fam, where there is q liberal range
on which the chicks may roam and
gather strength and frame Often
times the late-hatched chick, well cared
for, will make a growth which will
enable her to overtake the earlier
Matched bird and be quite as good and
as early layer in the fail as the older
sister. With late-hatched chicks the
lcuse must be persistently fought, for
the warm weather brings out the in.
sect in force. The large gray louise
is the one which makes the trouble
but by close watching and treatment
it may be destroyed.
There is nothing better than sulphur
for this purpose, and it is applied best
by catching the chick aud taking a lit
tie sulphur in the fingers, sprinkling
it through the feathers, especially
about the neck and head, but being
careful not to get the sulphur in the
eyes Of the chick. Do the work thor
oughly, for the sulphur must come in
direct contact with the louise to destroy
it. Keep up this treatment, and the
chicks will readily be raised. Give
them the range as soon as they are
large enough, and see that they also
have enough grain food at the house
to keep them growing sturdily and en-
able them to take on muscle-Indian-

The Separator ON the Farm.

Among the advantages of separating
the milk upon the farm l will mention:
First, that there is no time milk will
separate by the use of a machine more
easily or more completely than when
fresh and warm, says a Connecticut
farmer in Rural New Yorker. Second
we have the skim milk fresh and warm
for our calves. Third, there is so little
time for germs to multiply that dan.
ger from bowel trouble is averted. We
have not lost a calf from scours for
several years, although all are Jerseys
and claimed by some TO be delicate.
Fourth, our cream is sold, tested and
paid for upon the basis of its butter
fat. We are paid for just what we
furnish.

Seed Corn in the Ear.

A circular letter sent out from the
Ottawa, Canada, Station, says:
The cost of the small quantity of
seed corn that is required to Plant an
acre, in comparison with the cost for
labor in cultivating and handling and
the ultimate value per acre of a good
crop, would seem to make it clear
that the best available seed of the
most satisfactory type and variety
should be obtained at any reasonable
cost 1t would be much better for
Canadian farmers if they were able to
obtain their supplies of seed corn in
the ear; they would then have fair
idea of what they were getting While
in the ear. the danger of injury to
the vitality Of the seed from damp
and its after effects is reduced to a
minimum. Corn that is shelled by a
machine aDi left in sacks for six
weeks or more will seldom terminate
more than 70 per cent, unless the
conditions for storage have been ex-
ceptionall.y good. The average vital
ity of seed corn, tested in the seed
laboratory last year, were. for corn
received in the ear, 90 per cent, and
for shelled corn 6S per cent. 1t is
much to be recommended, then, that
wherever possible, farmers obtain
their supplies of seed corn in the ear
only. To meet the demand for seed
corn in this condition growers would
do we'll to adopt the style of shipping
crate that is used for this purpose in
the States Of Iowa aid Illinois. This
crate is two feet nine inches long, one
foot wide and one foot deep, and is
made Of half-inch lumber three inches
in width. Its capacity is one bushel,
or between one hundred and one hun
dred and twenty ears. If the corn
can be planted in hills. this crate will
hold sufficient seed for five acres
While 1t is true that there may be
some additional cost for freight, on
account of the weight Of the cob and
of the crate, and that extra work Is
required in Smelling the corn. these be
come Insignificant when the difference
in value between an acre Of good ma
tured corn and an acre Of unsausfac'
tory corn Is considered

CALIFORNIA as HEALTH RESORT

Ai1ins Ones Find Wide Variety of Gil
mates in Golden State.
To most of the army of health-seek-
ers California is the Mecca of their
dreams. More than likely their physi-
clans have told them that what they
need is "a winter in California" And
to it they come, says a writer in the
World To-day, trustingly, as to sim
gle great sanatorium having a single
brand of climate, that, namely, guar
anteed Californian
1t is only after they have been here
for some length of time, wandering
uncertainty from place to place, that
it begins to dawn on them that Cali
fornia offers, within certain limits, al-
most as wide q variety Of climatic
conditions as the region from which
they came. Hot weather or cool, dry
or damp, bracing or enervating, noun
tain or sea, forest or desert, all may
be had for the asking, and, for the
most part, within a radius of a half
days travel from a given center.
So for the first few months of their
stay, one sees every variety of misfit

the beach who should be on the desert.
these in the foothills who need the
nervous relaxation of the low levels,
those in the city hotels who should
be in a tent in the woods, and so On
In endless repetition.
The one mistake most generally
made is that southern California is
regarded as the ideal resort for those
suffering with tuberculosis. No matter
what be its form or stage, many are
possessed with the idea that warmth
and sunshine are all that are needed
for its relief. Warmth and sunshine
certainly will do much. by permitting
life in the open air. but if one is to
travel several thousand miles for eli
matte aid he does wisely to choose the
climate that is especially adapted to
his need.
And, as a matter of fact. California
can never be the ideal resort for the
consumptive simply because its eli
mate is not highly specialized TO meet
its requirements, but is, rather. a
choice l-the-year-round variety for
people with more ordinary needs. On
the other hand. their special climate is
not far to seek, but awaits them in
unlimited quantity just at CALIFORNIA;
