said with the exception of the above

riety of feed to keep them tractable,
and to obtain most satisfactory re-
suits.
Mrs. L. A. Cooks paper on prac-
ticol turkey raising was heartily re-
ceived. You may not succeed in
raising several hundred turkeys each
year as she does, by following her
plain aud careful Instructions, but
it should encourage those who heard
her, that they can do better than in
former efforts to grow this grand and
profitable class of poultry.
Prof. Olin ON seed selection, was
ineeed valuable address. His sug-
gestions if followed would add many
thousands of dollars in an increased
yield to the farmers of Prowers
county alone, and advised procuring
the best seed though they cost twice
or so more than ordinary seed.
Advised thorough grading Of seeds
of all kinds by every farmer by the
free use of tanning mills, as the
light and weak in germ would be
thrown out and the strong and pro-
ductive give yield and profit.
Mr.. G. B. Thomsn on the subject
of insects, pests and their extermin
alton brought forth much beneficial
information, and a spirited discus
sion suggested that light by lantern
or torch placed over a pan of water
in the fields at night when the moths
were in flight bring obstruction to
many thousands each night and this
lessons the worm brood sure to fol
low.
Am sorry we can not find space for
the many good features not enumer-
ated that were brought out in the
addresses and discussions and would
say that our stay at home farmers
missed one of the richest and most
valuable treats it was our privilege
to enjoy.

power to private consumers, immedi-
ate steps should be taken.
% To increase the output capacity
Of the plant. and CD to make such
improvement in the plant and equip
ment as shall result in a somewhat
more efficient operation with minimiz-
ed chances of interruption of service.
In making these recommendations,
the undersigned has in mind not so
much the claim that the plant has had
difficulty II carrying the peak" load
in the past In his judgement the
plant can be made to carry satisfac-
torily load equal to any load which
has come upon it in the past and, in
deed, somewhat more. The recon-
mendations are made, rather, first, be-
cause the present operating condition"
are decidedly precarious as regard >
the ability to maintain continuity of
service, and second, because at the
present rate of increase of business it
will not be long before the capacity
of the plant will be overtaxed.
In the writer's judgement new unit
should be installed of capacity such
that in connection with the smaller
of the present units, all existing de-
mands could be met with reasonable
margin for growth of business. This
would afford opportunity to keep the
suare unit in first-class working shape
and would minimize the danger of a
breakdown with all the resulting dis
satisfaction and loss of business.
(17) Depreciation.
1t is customary to figure the depre-
cation of a plant of this nature at 10
per cent per annum on station appar-
atus, boilers and engines. On lines,
poles, etc, 10 per cent for the first
year and per cent thereafter, are
common figures. An average of 8 per
cent for the whole plant would not
be a bad figure.
(1s) Concerning Municipal Ownership
in General.
1t is probable that the members of
the Committee are familiar with the
stock arguments for and against num-
icipal ownership. The undersigned
will content himself with mentioning
few statements taken from the re-
ports of the Bureau of Commerce of
Labor and published in 1902. The
total number of light and power plants
of the United States at this time was
$500, of which sis, or about 80 per
cent, were municipal and 2S05 private.
Of the SIS municipal statigns, GIL, or
S7h per cent, were located in places
of 5000 inhabitants and under. This
shows that municipal ownership is
Ccfn
in smaller towns and cities. 1t is I'M
doubtedly true that a municipality
must expect that the trouble and a.
mount of attention demanded by mu-
nicipal ownership will increase at a
higher rate than the population of the
city in which the plant is located.
Respectfully submitted,

EXIT, Mr.. WITHERBY.

II Mr.. Witherby and his associates
who compose the syndicate of NUM-
cipal light plant brokers, can get any
real Joy and comfort out OF Prof.
Matthews report of his investigation
OF the Richmond municipal light plant,
they certainly are very game gentle
men and are of the sort who always
feel thankful for small favors. Prof.
Matthews report, which is printed in
full elsewhere in this issue, Is conclu-
sive on one point viz; that Richmond
does not possess the pile of junk that
criticisms of the past have made
some people believe. That there are
repairs needed and that the capacity
of the plant should be increased, Prof.
Matthews admits but the tone of his
report throughout indicates very plain
ly that the plant as a whole has not
only been performing all that could
be reasonably expected but has done
more. The Board of Public Works
itself recognized the need for increas-
ed capacity and Prof. Matthews, whose
expert knowledge Is not to be que stion-
ed, has shown that such must be done
IL tre business of the plant is to be
increased.
Mr.. McMahan's report on the matter
of the financial affairs of the munich
pal plant has been withheld for the
time being as it is to be revised and
resubmitted to the committee next
Friday night. 1t is known, however,
that Mr.. McMahan has found a very
healthy and altogether encouraging
condition of affairs. The city has not
lost money in the operation of the
plant, the report to the contrary
showing that it's earning capacity has
been satisfactory and probably equal
ing the earnings of private plants OF
the same capacity and maintaining
equal rates. If the expert could only
examine the books of the Richmond
Light, Heat and Power Company, ii
probably would be shown that the city
plant has done better than the private
plant In the matter of electric lighting
though such an investigation would
undoubtedly show that the Richmond
Light, Heat and Power Company is
holding its own" in the artificial gas
business as result of its excessive
rates. The more delving there is
done in this business, the more appar
ent 1t becomes that to say the least
II would be a hazardous venture for
the city to let go of its lighting plant
There appears to be at this time little
prospect that such a foolhardy action
will be taken. Mr.. Witherby and his
associates are certainly distanced in
the first heat of this municipal light
race, and it is safe to make the predic
ton that 1t will likely be in the distant
future, IL ever, that these eastern gen
tlemen with much money and little
consideration for Richmond people
will have added the local municipal
lighting plant to their already big
chain.

Nixon had been found dead in his
drug store by Frank Grim, driver of
the Standard Oil company's wagon,
who called at the drug store to supply
the regular amount of oil and gasoline
taken by Mr.. Nixon each Monday
morning. Mr.. Grim entered the store
but saw no one. He then looked
about and beheld the PROSTATE body of
the wellknown proprietor lying be-
hind the counter. At first he did not
know what to think of the discovery,
but upon a close investigation it was
found that Mr.. Nixon was dead Mr..
Grim then notified people on the street
and a crowd soon collected. Apoplexy
was the cause.
