Shakespeare plants.


The above term is a new one to us
readers. The writer was looking over
some pot experiments being conduct
ed at the University of Illinois by Pro
fessor Cyril G. Hopkins when he came
to one pot in which was seen an UNI
usual condition of plant growth, The
pot contained soil in which was
large amount of alkali, so much so
that plant life could make but little
Roadway in it. While in other pots
nearby where the soil was good the
plants stood two feet high, in this pot
most of the plants were of spindling
growth and not over four inches in
height. There were ten plants in
each pot, that the results might be bet
ter compared.
But in this pot was one plant that
lowered above its fellows. Professor
the boys call Shakespeare plant"
The writer measured 1t and found the
height to be 20 inches. Moreover it
had stooled out and had three large
stalks in addition to the principal
stalk The volume of the plant was at
least thirty times that of the average
plants in the pots.
Now as to the cause of such de-
Velopment in an unfriendly medium,
Professor Hopkins did not wish to ex.
press his opinion as to the cause, for
the true scientist does not like to get
the reputation of being a guesser. He
wishes to send out to the public only
opinions that have strong array OF
facts behind them, and in that he is
right. But the ordinary mortal eau.
not help reaching for possible inter
pretations Of unusual things
1t may be that this plant has the
power to resist alkali to such a degree
that it is able to develop in spite of it.
If this is SO, its seed may be saved
and be planted in subsequent years to
get variety of wheat that cares moth,
ing for alkali. The probability is that
there is much in this plant that is of
value to the world, for such plants
have already been found among other
economic plants, such as cotton. We
have no doubt that the seed of this
plant will be saved and further expert,
ments made with it.
There are, of course, other possible
though not probable, explanations
One is that the alkali is not evenly
distributed in the soil in which the
olant is growing and another is that
| he water used in the pot has caused
more teaching out of the alkali in one

Such explanations will not however
receive much weight till they have
something more than mere conjecture

Average Stock Prices.

There was a time when the man
that received an average price for the
cattle. horse, or sheep he sent
to market made money on 1t,
but that time is not now. Then
land was cheap, labor was cheap, and
grain was cheap. Now all of these
are high. and the average price of an
animal does not often equal the cost
of the labor and feed that have gone
into him. This condition has grown
upon us till we find ourselves facing
the necessity of working out of it by
producing animals that will sell for
more than they do at present or dis
covering some combination of feeds
and care that will lessen the cost of
production. 1t is well to work along
both lines.

Statistics derived from the highest
possible authorities are sufficient to
establish the claim Of San Francisco
that II is the financial New York of
the Pacific coast. They also point
clearly to the observing person the
fact that niue greater things are In

Many prominent persons in all parts
OF the world believe that San Fran

Great care should be taken at the

is just merging into womanhooJ that
the diet shall contain all that is up

At that age the structure Is beins

unhealthy cells may be built in and a
sick condition slowly supervene

Choice Cattle,

One of the most common express
sions to be met with in the mar
ket reports is choice cattle are
TX demand at top and nearly top
prices. That is the kind of cattle
that it pays best to raise. 1t does not
take any more time daily to feed an
animal that will make one of the
choice kind than it does to feed one
that will rate far down in the list
Moreover, 1t will not require so many
days of care, for it sometimes happens
that the choice animal Is one that has
made his growth in years less time
than the poorer animal. The choice
animal is probably always a pure
bred animal or a high grade.

RAILROAD RATE LEGISLATION.


Testifying before the Senate Com
mittee at Washington. Interstate
Commerce Commissioner Prouty said
in discussing the proposition to give
to that Commission the power to regu-
late railway rates:
Il think the railways should make
their own rates. | think they should
be allowed to develop their own bust
ness. | have never advocated any
law, and / am not now in favor OF
any law, which would put the rate
making power into the hands of any
commission or any court While 1t
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 countries, am opposed
to It. The railway rate is
property. It is all the property that
the railway has got. The rest Of it's
property is not good for anything un-
less it can charge rate. Now it has
always seemed to me that when a
rate was fixed, IL that rate was an un-
reasonable rate, 1t deprives the rail-
tanto. 1t is not necessary that you
should confiscate the poverty of a
railroad; it is not necessary that you
should say that 1t shall not earn three
per cent or four per cent When
you put in a rate that is inherently
unreasonable. you have deprived that
company of it's rights, of its property.
and the Circuit Court of the United
States has jurisdiction under the four
teenth amendment to restrain that.
l have looked at these cases
a great many times, and can only
come to the conclusion that a rail-
road company is entitled to charge a
| fair and reasonable rate, and If any
order of commission, if any statute
| of state legislature takes away that
rate, the fourteenth amendment pro
/ tects the railway company"

At the conference OF the managers
of the New York Central Lines, held
in New York June 9Th, all lines be-
ing represented by their General
Managers and Passenger officials, II
was decided, beginning with the regu-
lar summer change, Sunday, June
18th. to quicken the speed OF the
Twentieth Century Limited" so as
TO make the time between New York
and Chicago eighteen hours instead of
twenty hours, the New York Central
Lines having made the twenty hour
time during the past three years, and
having also made the run between
New York and Chicago In twenty
hours with their Exposition Flyer"
for the one hundred and eighty days
of the Columbian Exposition in Chi
cago in 1898, twelve years ago.
TIE New York Central Lines make
the point that the New York Central
has had in service the Empire State
Express" which has been the fastest
train in the world for its distance,
440 miles for fourteen years, having
held the worlds record for that time
and for three years and $50 days hav-
ing held the worlds record for a
thousand mile train In twenty hours,
The proposed schedule OF eighteen
hours is simply the extension OF the
time of the Empire State Express"
through from Buffalo to Chicago the
time having been made for fourteen
years between New York and Buffalo.
On this new schedule, the train will
leave Chicago at $3.50 p. M, arriving
Grand Central Station, New York,
at $50 next morning, and returning,
will leave New York $3.50 p. m, reach
ing Chicago $3.50 a. m. following day,
At the same time the Lake Shore
| Limited" will be quickened up an
hour, and will make the time from
| Chicago to New York in % hours in.

can be obtained for the car loads of
