GAS AND WATER
IS ONE AS NECESSARY AS THE
oTHER7
Citizens Of Large cities Say II is.

New York. June 13.--ln the recent
agitation here about the price of gas.
the demand for lower rates was sup.
ported by the argument that every
resident is as dependent upon a sup.
ply of gas as upon a supply Of good
water
II has come to pass that the day
laborer uses gas as his only fuel for
cooking, because of economy, and the
rich man uses gas on account OF its
convenience. Gas for lighting, with
modern Improvements in burners. Is
cheaper, better and more satisfactory
than any other kind Of light Gas
sells at sl.00 per thousand cubic feet
In large cities and from that to as
high as $500 in smaller towns.
The consumer of gas in the country
uses Acetylene pronounced a-set.a.
lene), and each user makes his own
gas and is independent OF Gas and
Electric Companies. Acetylene is a
more perfect illuminant than the gas
sold by the big gas companies in the
cities, and the cost to the smallest
user is about the equivalent Of city
gas at SO cents per thousand
Acetylene is the modern artificial
light. the latest addition to the many
inventions that have become daily
necessities.
The light from an acetylene flame
is soft, steady and brilliant, and in
quality is only rivaled by the suns
rays. II water and a solid material
known as Calcium Carbide are
brought into contact, the immediate
result is the making of this wonder
full gas. The generation of acetylene
is so simple that experience or even
apparatus is not necessary TO make
II. II II is desired to make It for prac-
teal lighting, and to keep It for i'm
mediate use. then small machine
called an "Acetylene Generator" is
employed. There are many response.
BILE concerns making acetylene gener-
ators. In practice, this gas is dis.
tributed in small pipes throughout
buildings, grounds, or entire cities
and towns, in the same manner as
ordinary city gas. Acetylene is the
only satisfactory means of lighting
isolated buildings located in the coun-
try or suburbs at distance from city

The Soy Bean.

The soy bean (glyclne hisplda),
also known as sofa bean and oof-
fee berry, is a native of south
eastern Asia. This leguminous plant
has been cultivated for centuries in
China and Japan. In those countries
1t is one of the important articles OF
food, but as such has never found
favor in the United States. In the
countries mentioned II has developed
many different forms and varieties.
This plant was imported into England
about 100 years ago, but received
there no attention, and no one con.
sidered It a food plant for man or
beast. II was grown for long time
in the Southern states before 1t at
tracted attention, but finally its great
worth was recognized. Now 1t is
famous.

Barrels or Boxes.

The apple sellers in the vicin-
ity of Three Rivers, Quebec, we're
polled by the American consul
there as to their preference for
barrels or boxes for packing apples.
The consensus of opinion was that
more apples Of fancy class could be
sold in boxes. but that common apples
should be sent in barrels. The boxes
require more handling, as It takes
three boxes to equal one barrel, and
during the rush season 1t is doubtful
II the same quantity Of apples could
be handled in boxes as in barrels
without the employing of increased
help. One experienced apple handler
said: I'VE like some fancy apples and
fruit of an extra quality FOR holiday
seasons in boxes, but we prefer the
average apple in barrels"

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:
II think the railways should make
their own rates. | think they should
be allowed 10 develop their own busi-
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 OF any court. While Il
may be necessary to do that some
time, while that is done in some
states at the present time, while II Is
done In some countries, | am opposed
to Il. The railway rate is
property II is all the property that
the railway has got. The rest OF its
property is not good for anything UNI
less Il can charge a rate. Now II has
always seemed TO me that when a
rate was fixed, If that rate was an UNI
reasonable rate, It deprives the rail
road company Of its property pro
tanto. II Is not necessary that you
should conhscate the property OF
railroad: II 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
unreasonable, you have deprived that
company OF its rights, of its property,
and the Circuit Court of the United
States has jurisdiction under the four.

Creamery stock.


The question is now being discussed
as to whether the stock OF CO

that are supplying milk or cream
to the creamery. Some take one side
of the controversy and some the
other, but the strongest arguments
seem TO be in favor of the stock being
Kept entirely in the hands OF the
farmers that are directly interested
in the success Of the creamery. AS
much of such stock does not pay in.
terest, II is evident that the outside
owners of stock might in time come
to feel that they could no longer let
the creamery have their money with
out some returns, and would begin
an agitation to turn the cooperative
creamery into a stock company cream
cry. In some cooperative creameries
only one share is held by one person,
and that one share so credited TO
the farm, not the man. When he sells
his farm the share goes, too. That
prevents the trading in shares.

Corn Cultivation.

Use good seed corn. To obtain IL,
go through your cornfeld as soon as
the silk is black and select the best
ears. Hang 1t up in the garnet or
barn. Break up your corn land, disk
It in the spring and plant II as soon
as the ground permits. using no less
than three grains and no more than
five in hill. A week after planting,
harrow 1t with a slanted, fine-toothed
harrow made for that purpose. Har-
row q week later and again when
your corn is four inches high. This
will keep the weeds out Of the hills.
II your land is rich, plant 1t three
feet by six inches. Keep away from
the hill when cultivating, but cult
vate deep until after July 4; then
bring some soil to the corn, but have
your cultivation more shallow.

came on and rain and the seed rotted
Then the atmosphere cleared and the
sun came out warm and in two days

was the temperature that did It. You
can't farm by the almanac. Even the

WASHINGTON March 20. - An
American man-of-war will be sent to
Port au Prince to protect American
interests. This determination was ar
rived at today, when the state depart

trouble is impending in Haiti, and 1t is
doubtful whether the authorities can
maintain peace and order on March 81

distance is but 1sO miles and the latter
port can be quickly reached. The

LAY CLAIM TO ISLAND
Columbia River Fishermen Indignant
at War Departments Action

BY Associated Press.
PORTLAND, Or, March 29.-The
large sand island just inside of the
mouth of the Columbia river on the
Washington side of the stream, which
for two decades has been a bone of
contention between the salmon fisher
men of the lower river, has again come
into prominence. This time the trouble
is between the fishermen and the war
department.
The island is government land,
which, though it has been in constant
use for years, has never returned the
government any remuneration. On
recommendation of Major Langfitt the
war department has divided the island
into five parts and has offered the
fishing rights to the highest bidder.
This action has created a storm of
protest from the fishermen who have
spent large sum of money in clear
ing the litoral of snags and logs so as
to make it available for seining pur-
poses. The fishermen may carry the
matter into the courts.

BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, March 29.-Em-
peror Nicholas has instructed M. Max
imovitch, governor general of Warsaw,
to elaborate the reforms necessary for
the prosperity of Poland.
In a rescript to the governor general
the emperor says: "Since the radical
revival of civil life in the Vistula ter
ritory during the past forty years a
series Of needs has developed on which
the government is now bestowing es-
pecial sollcitude.
Enemies of the existing order are
seeking to provoke disturbances thus
hindering the calm discussion of the
reforms for which the country is ripe,
and at the same time some sections of
the Polish population are putting forth
exorbitant claims concerning limits in
the employment of the state language.
to which there must remain assured
throughout the empire the high i'm
portance due it, but without any super
fluous or unjust exclusion Of local
languages"
The emperor accordingly directs the
governor general, while lawfully and
firmly suppresslng artiflcially support
ed disturbances, to proceed to the
elaboration of the reforms found to be
necessary for the prospering of the
territory inseparably connected with
the other parts of the Russian state.
