One of the great problems which face
the Panama Canal commissioners is
more difficult than that of labor. Sam
itation was rightly regarded as of pri-
mary Importance, and the measures to.
that end are rigidly enforced. This
complicates the letting of contracts to
hrms or individuals who will perform
part OF. the work The question of ma
tiodality is also important. American
labor expects and receives high VI, ges.
So FAR, ut least. it has shown slight in
clinatiOn To seek the canal zone i'm any
such quantity as is desirable. Nor is
there much likelihood that negroes
from the Southern States will apply in
considerable numbers. The Chinese ex-
clusion act precudes the employment of
COolie labor. Heretofore Jamaica and
Martinique have furnished the largest
portion of the men who actually WELD

which relates TO hours. The national
law makes eight hours the legal work
ing-day for American citizens engaged
on government work. but to extend this
provision to colored labor in the tropics
would not only greatly increase the ex-
panse of building the canal. but might
prove unsatisfactory TO the laborers
themselves. 1t was this consideration
that led Congress to amend the urgen-
cy deficiency bill by eXempting alien la
borers ii the canal zone from the pro-
visions of the eight-hour law

In reviewing the operations of the

proceeds from the disposal of public
lands in the thirteen States and three
Territories since 1901 is S2S,000000

surveys are completed. Many of the

these irrigated districts are selling al

More tanning mills are worn out by
hauling over the country in farm
wagons over rough roads than are worn
out in actual use. Many are permitted
to fall into disuse by neglecting the
sleeves which rust out easily. The best
place for the latter is in a case made
expressly for them where they can be
kept dry and they should be given an
oil preparation occasionally. 1t is bet
ter to own a mill than to depend on
borrowing

The President has referred 10 Con
gress the dispute over the type of canal
to be built at Panama. OF the thir-
teen members OF the Consulting Board
of Engineers, eight favor Il sea-level
canal, and one of the members of the
Canal Commission. Admiral Endicott,
takes the same view. But five members
of the Engineers Board, four of the
Canal Commissioners and the Chief
Engineer of the canal are in favor of
lock canal. The Secretary of War ia
vOrs a lock canal and the President
recommends that type, c" the ground
that it could be built at about half the
cost and in half the time required for
a canal at the sea-level, and that it
would afford quicker transit for large
ships.

At no period in the history of this
country have there been so many new
candidates for admission to the ranks
of the sheep and wool raisers as to-day.

"Under no circumstances must 4
brood SOW and her pigs be shut in a
nasty, muddy pen" This is the ad
vice Of a very successful and expert
enced breeder to a beginner. Note
that no decent breeder ever treats his
fine brood cows that way, and why
not lust as we'll extend this common
sense treatment to the "just plain
breed" or those Of no breed at all.

The sheep has been intimately as
ISOLATED with man, probably longer
than any other animal. The wool and

Plans for Il large naval station on
Lake Michigan have been prepared for
the consideration of the Secretary of
the Navy. They provide for the ex-
penditure of two and half million
dollars for the erection of a large group
OF buildings for the accommodation of
1T least a thousand young men under
training for service in the navy. The
establishment of such station on the
Great Lakes is the natural outcome OF
the liking of the young men of the West
for service in the navy. The modern
war-ship is manned not by sailors so
LAUGH as by men with Il mechanical
taste, for the ships are monstrous ma
chine-shops. The Western youth with
taste for machinery and desire to
see the world is finding the naval SER
vice pleasant way for gratifying both

held on the charge OF having forged the
name of George e. Whitcomb to n rail-

RAILROAD WORLD

The Frisco is receiving a shipment of
$3.50 tons of steel rail from the Tennessee
Coal. Iron and Railroad company's plant
at Ensley. This is the last of an order
of 1G,00 tons of rail to be used in relaying
the line between Birmingham and Mem
phis.
The first delivery of nearly 500 tons
was received some time ago and the rail
has been distributed along the line ready
for laying when the weather Will permit
The railroad has sent a number of fiat
cars to the plant at Ensey to receive
the rails as they are turned out, and
they will be distributed along the re-
mainder Of the line.
Superintendent II. II. Brown of this
division, was in Birmingham yesterday
and stated that as soon as spring arrived
in earnest the gangs of men would be
put to work ON the road laying the
rail. For months past the gangs have
been reballasting and laying new cross
tics, and when the new rail is laid the
entire line will have been practically re-
built.
Superintendent Brown of the Birmng-
ham division of the Frisco, said yesterday
that the wreck last Tuesday at Eldridge
was one of THE most peculiar he had
ever seen. The track for some distance
was torn up and the line was blocked
for an entire day. but the property loss
on the equipment was not over $50
The train left the track, tearing 1t up
badly. AS the wreck was in a 5O-foot fill it
was impossible to build track around
the wreck and several trains were badly
delayed.
