While we are inclined TO criticise
English railroads with much freedom,
they have a record ir one respect
which our own railroad managers
must look upon with respect The
gross earnings Of the English roads
never showed an unfavorable fluctu-
alton, as compared with a previous
year, of over 11z per cent. With all
the talk of poor railway management,
of decadent industries and of the
economic evils of war, It is confusing
to find that the commercial develop
ment of Great Britain, measured by
her gross railroad -afic, presents an
almost unbroken record of advance.
Net earnings. however, nave been
badly c,:t into by the rise in wages and
by the higher cost of fuel--Scribner.

LATE cHIcKs.
Tendency of Late Years Has Teen to
Hatch Too Many-Make Good
Spring Layers.

Once TIE late chick was considered
of no account. not worth Matching.
OF late years the tendency has been
TO hatch too may chicks late. Per-
haps this is responsible for a great
deal OF the poor fertility reported
every spring.
But the late chick as we get it and
find it In the growing should be con
sidered with more discrimination
than is implied in the general dis
cussion OF Tate hatehed" or of June"
or July" chicks. says Farm Poultry.
It is not the time or the season
that makes OF mars the chick. These
Of course are factors. but more i'm
portant are the conditions of the par.
ent stock and the conditions given
the growing chicks. Some fowls are
in better condition for breeding now
than they were in the earlier months.
These may reasonably be expected TO
produce their best now. But from
hns that are exhausted no good
chicks need be expected.
