How to Run an Incubator.

The average farmer, his wife, his son
or his daughter should not expect to
learn all about the management of an
incubator from the perusal Of written
pages. Experience comes from the
work itself. This work is easy, inter-
esting and fascinating. 1t occupies
the mind and leads to investigation.
More than that, 1t leads to success and
profit. But great results cannot be ex-
pected in the beginning. The poultry
business is q trade and must be learn
ed. Many person Is idle today and
looking for some sphere Of usefulness
who could learn how to operate an in
cubator to both mental and financial
advantage. But the work, slight as 1t
is, must be done properly and at the
right time. The poultry business Is
honorable and profitable but it re-
quires study and experience. We serve
long and faithful apprenticeship to
learn other more laborious and less re-
munerativc trades, when the same
amount Of application would in less
time make us experts with an incu-
bator and give us a trade In line not
affected by strikes or lockouts or liable
to be ercrowded.-Richard III. Wood,
M. ID.

IA,
The Bltumlnuous Operators Cry Out
Against Alleged Combine.
CUT SHORT ON EVERY HAND
Declare Railroads and Hard and Soft
Coal Miners Unite In Restraint Of
Trade-congress Refuses to Record
Letter Denouncing Conditions.

Washington, Feb. 14.-Representa-
tive Gillespie (Tex.) made two unsuc-
cessful attempts in the house Tues
day to obtain consent to have includ-
ed in the house record a letter from
the bituminous coal trades league Of
Pennsylvania, denouncing the alleged
combination of coal carrying railroads
to control and regulate the output OF
coal in the United States. Both times
Representative Payne IN. ", the re-
publican floor leader, objected, and
Mr.. Gillespie finally abandoned the
effort
The letter which is referred to as
a petition for relief, was prepared by
Frank c. Drane, secretary of the BIZ
luminous Coal Trades league, of Penn
sylvania.
Cannot Test Law.
Mr.. Drane calls attention to Mr..
Gillespie's resolution and the threaten
ed strike of the hard and soft coal
miners, and claims there has existed
d
Pennsylvania railroad with the an
thracite and bitumionus coal mining
and shipping companies to stifie all
competition in violation of the anti
trust laws.
He recites the grievances to which
the independent operators are subject
ed through alleged discrimination,
particularly the soft coal operators in
Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland and
West Virginia, and says the independ-
ents are helpless. The letter asserts
that the Pennsylvania railroad has
established rules that only certain
markets can be supplied by one region,
and that the private cars of the soft
coal trust have unlimited choice Of
market to ship coal, in accordance to
the demands therefore.
The letter alleges that the hard coal
trust and the soft coal trust own or
control all the fields in Pennsylvania
and Maryland, except, perhaps few
small tracts operated by individuals,
or rent on royalty basis.
All that the independent bituminous
coal operators want, it Is stated in
conclusion, is provision in the new
interstate commerce railroad bill that
will make the interstate commerce
commission the final court with power
to disclose all determinations, not
only as to regulation Of railroad rates,
but also to hear and relieve complaints
of shippers against transportation
companies, both real and water and
combined, and to stop discrimination
by the railroads and trusts combined,
by giving the interstate commerce
commission full power in the prem

Wisconsin After Two.cent Rates.

Madison, Wis, Feb. 14.-Steps were
taken Tuesday looking to the estab-
lishment of two cent per mile pass
enger rate on Wisconsin railroads.
Secretary of State Walter L. Houser,
as a test case, filed personal COM
plant with the Wisconsin state rail
road commission against the Wiscon-
sin Central railroad, alleging that he
travels frequently between stations of
the Wisconsin Central road, paying at
the rate of three cents per mile, which
charge, he believes 10 be excessive. He
believes that a fair rate or compen-
sation for such service should not ex.
reed two cents per mile. The petition.
or prays that the Wisconsin Central
railroad be made to abolish the pres.
snt passenger tolls; tho state railroad
commission to fix a reasonable rate.

large stocks, from the fact that the
surfaces of the union were all smooth
and the scions held more firmly. The
method Of procedure is as follows:
After determining where the graft
had better go, the stock is. cut off with
a fine saw and the cut made in the side
of the stock, as shown at A. This is
then cleaned out with knife, as
shown at B. A saddler's knife is used
for this purpose, the outline Of which
is shown at Il in the second cut. The
scion is cut as is usual in cleft grating
and is driven with some little force
into the groove in the stock, as shown
at G and in the cross section at d.
1t will be found that after this graft
has been driven in it can only be pulled
out by using considerable force, and it
Is held much more firmly than in the
