The scions used for gratis of ALL

packed In sand or moss until needed.
In the case Of hardy sorts, good re-

spring-cut CRAFTS, but it is safer to
cut them in the fall. April and May
are the months for grating.
For covering all cut surfaces made

RAILROADS. sToRING CoAL.
Buving All the Mines Can Produce in
Anticipation of Strike.


St. Joseph, Mo, Feb. 26.-Preparations
are being made by the railroads in an
ticipation of the wide spread coal strike
which the miners are soon to declare.
Arthur H. Penfeld. president of the
Bank of Commerce of this city has just
finished financing the Mystic Block
Coal company Of Iowa ard is familiar
with conditions in that state.
I'VE operate twenty-one coal mines in
Appanoose county, Iowa" he said
"These produce about $500 tons of coal
day which the railroads are eagerly
buying and storing. The coal is dump
ed out in the railroad yards and piled
up lust as cordwOod was formerly done
when it was used for fuel. OF course,
when the strike comes our mines will be
tied up with the rest, but until that time
arrives we shall have no difficulty of
disposing of our coal"
Mr. Penfleld has just sold Mystic
Block Coal company mortgage bonds In
New York to the extent of $500. 900 to
make possible tie consolidation of the
independent companies iE Appanoose
county. He has beer asked by the
Atchison Coal and Mining company to
act as financial. agent in securing Funds
with which to sink second shaft. He
has not seen the property, but believes
that there is bright outlook for the
Atchison men from all accC UNITS Of their
mine. It will require $150,o00 to sink the
new shaft. Among the Atchison men
Interested are William Carlisle. b P
WAGNER. c. S. Hetherington and D. NJ.
Cain. The Atchison mine now produces
100 tons of coal a day.

LIVING UP 40 THE IAW.
Railway Ohicials Are Very Particular
Nowadays.


Higher officials of many of the lines.
both eastern al western. have directed
minute examination of all freight and
passenger tariffs fer the purpose of dis
covering whether they contain any pos
Slble ground for a charge of unla WflIl-
ness. Tariffs containing a few words on
some remote page expressive of provi3-
ions which might be held to be discrin-
iuatory. though legally FLED with the in
terstate commerce commission, are be-
coming fewer IN number, as are also
supplements to tariffs leaving uncai5seI-
ed some obscure page of previous sup
plements. A rate made in error by an
agent Will 10 longer be protected. Inter
state combination rates made on q basis

are lawful In the sense that they are
approved by the state commission, are
being seriously questioned, and it may
be found necessary to file all state rates
at Washington. Claims are being thor
Oughly investigated. Concessions to in
dustrial reads have been withdrawn to
the point of a suit against one large
concern brought by sixteen lines to re
cover for several years back the differ
ence between dennurrage and per diem.
On the ground that the Industrial road

have instructions from higher officials

point of equity. but by the. letter. and
the interpretations given the traffic de

obtain by reading only that they are to
obey the law when they know It, but
that they are to take pains to discover
and prevent any violation. The united
stand of the railroads against The re
fined concession. aided by the popular
feeling against railways, and by public
promises to the interstate commerce
commission, is apparently proving sue
| cessful. Orders to obey the law today
/ are full of spirited meaning. The failure
of the lines formerly to break away

success today in their union strength
ened by the certainty Of widespread
popular disapprovaf and the accompany

abled them to do.
