A HUGE UNDERTAKING.
Chicago Has Tunnel for Freight
Extending 40 Miles


Without blare of trumpet the newly
completed freight tunnel system of the
Illinois Tunnel Company was recently
opened in Chicago. This great work was
begun five years ago and the cost approx
imately has been $30.0O0.0O0 There are
now in the system A. miles of tunnel
equipped with rails and overhead trolleys
in the district which practically en-
braces all of the downtown mercantile
and industrial business of Chicago In
the matter OF rolling stock the tunne.
company has now ready for use in its
freight transportation service 30 power
ful electric locomotives and 300 ears, and
mas placed orders for 800 additional cars
and 81 lew locomotives, The company
has finished connections with thirty BUSH
ness buildings in the downtown or loop
district. and connections have also been
made between the freight and warehouses
of nine of the principal railroads. while
others are under way.
President A. c. Wheeler and Chief En-
sineer and Manager Jackson. Of the Illi-
nois Tunnel Company figure that from
the opening of the freight service by their
company there will Immediately be NOV
ing through the subway 10000 tons of
merchandise every twenty-four hours
None of this will pay less than 80 cents
a ton, and if the average rate is 60 cents
a ton and the estimates are based upon
500 days, the gross income from this
source should be $6.J00,0 900. and the net
income should be not less than S5.000.000
year. President Wheeler, in proof that
an estimate of 10000 tons day is not
excessive, points to the fact that 1000
tons in less than car load lots go at go
cents a ton between the railroads every
day, and this business only awaits the
completion of the subway terminals under
the railroads to be handled entirely by
the tunnel company. 1t is further figured
that one-third of the goods now carried
by team through the downtown streets os
the city at an expense to the merchants
of above $60,000,000 a year will in 1907
pass through the subway.
The ingenuity of the engineer who has
planned and supervised the construction
of the Chicago subway has been taxed to
the utmost by conditions confronting him,
on account of the many styles of buildings
that had to be tapped to make connections
with the tunnel. In New York and other
eastern cities many structures have been
built which extend thirty, forty and fifty
feet below the street surface. and such
easements have been built in Chicago only
recently, while others are being construct
ed in connection with new business houses
now in course of erection in the loop dis
trict These have and are facilitating
the work of the tunnel engineers in max
ing proper connections with the mercan-
tile establishments that will enjoy the
freight service of the tunnel company. In
many instances, however, no two build
ings being alike, each has required its own
treatment

A PLAGUE OF LocusTs.
Myrfads of Them Laying Waste I'll
Harvest Fields eff HUNGARY

Myriads of Them Laying Waste the
Harvest Fields eff Hungary.
Mrriads of locusts are devastating the
country in the neighborhood of Debrec-
zin, Hungary.
They are sweeping through the land,
eating every green thing they find in their
path. The crops on 10000 acres have al
ready been consumed, so that the ground
is quite bare, and the authorities are help
less to stay the advance 81 the insects.
All sorts Of desperate means are being
tried without avail to keep back the in
yading host. Fires have been lighted, but
the locusts swarm into the flames until
they are extinguished, and the survivors
continue their march unimpeded.
Twelve steam rollers are being used at
one place, and roller brooms are sweeping
up the dead bodies of the crushed insects
But no apparent progress is made. The
locusts cover the earth in many places
to the depth of several inches, and defy
annihilation.
To make matters worse, storm has
carried clouds of them over the River
Thesis, and they have devoured practi-
cally all the corn, which was standing in
sheaves. What is left is worthle S. as ami
mails refuse to touch it owing to its pc
culiar smell
The plague first appeared last year,
when a force of 600 men was organized
to destroy the locusts. This year the po-
sition of affairs is much worse. and many
farmers are threatened with ruin.

While rape is a food Of undoubted
value to farm stock, and particularly
SO for horses, swine and poultry, much
care must be used in feeding it to cows
and sheep, else it is apt to make trou-
BILE. If cows and sheep are allowed to
eat too freely Of it under certain con-
ditions it will cause bloat, particular
ly if the rape is especially succulent
or is damp from rain or dew. The best
way to pasture rape, and we consider
this the better plan for any farm ami
NAL, is to turn them on to it after their
appetites have been partially satisfied
with grain or other pasturage. We es-
peciallv like the plan of turning the
animals into the rape for only an hour
or two daily. We give them what
grain they have in the morning, then
turn them on to the rape for an hour
and then back into the regular pasture,
where they remain until the middle Of
the afternoon, when they are again
given an hour or less in the rape field.
The rape has its worst effect on sheep,
but in handling them in the manner
suggested there is little or no trouble.

American Lahorer Better on.

The bureau of labor has issued statis-
tics for 1905, and estimates that the la
boring man is better off as to wages and
hours of labor. In 1905 the purchasing
power of wages was per cent higher
than in 1904 and the retail prices of food
were slightly higher. This advantage was
more than offset, however, by the increase
in the purchasing power of his wages.
The average wages per hour in 1905 were
1919 per cent higher than the average
period from 1895 to 1899, and the num-
Der of employees were 80 per cent greater.
The total amount of the pay rolls was
52.3 per cent higher in 1905 than the pre-
ceding ten-year average. At the same
time the purchasing power of average
wages in 1905 was greater than in any
other year.

Making Cider.

Cider-making offers a good opportu-
nifty of saving the surplus apples from
the home fruit garden, after the best
have been put into the cellar for win
ter use, thus making valuable apples
that otherwise would be thrown away
A bruise which would render an apple
unfit for storage does not impair it as
a source of cider.
The best cider is not made from
sweet apples, or from apples that have
little juice, such as Ben Davis, but
from good, juicy sour kinds such as
Northern Spy, Baldwin and the like.
1t Is often advisable to mix few sweet
apples in with the sour ones TO soften
the taste of the cider, but this is mat
ter Of taste.
II good specimens of the Northern
Spy are used. the cider will prove an
expensive luxury Therefore, any I'M
dersized apples and any that become
bruised In handling may be used.
For the man who intends making
only a small amount Of cider each year
enough for consumption in his own
household during the wlnter-a mill
worked by hand and pressing the POI
mace Of only two or three bushels Of
apples is the most practical. mil Of
this sort will cost anywhere from $40
up. according to the size.

Cold Business Fake.

Trade journals, devoted to the inter
ests OF retail druggists. are well sup
piled with advertisements, offering, for
a consideration, formulas that will pro-
duce lice cream at a ridiculously low
price. Whether such concoctions will
pass inspection as articles of pure food
may be quite another question.
One of these advertisers, doing bust
ness in Mississippi, says: Il use no
eggs. no gelatine. no cooking My
cream is rich, highly favored. smooth
as velvet, heavy body Cost, not to ex-
coed AZ cents a gallon. Receipt for So

good locations for the apiarirt-eJrest,

character of soil or climate.

Give the Hog. some Salt.

The old idea that hogs do not need
salt has passed away. The Missouri
experiment station says this about it:
Feeding salt to hogs is a matter up
on which little emphasis is usually put,
but it Is doubtless one Of those impor-
tant trilies which we may consider
with profit. Salt is a normal constit-
uent of animal tissue and of the blood,
plays an important part in the stimu-
lation of the internal organs and is the
source Of the chlorine of the hydro
chloric acid in the gastric juice 1t is
always present in the urine whether
present in the food or not, and death
may be caused if complete absence of
salt in the ration obtains during con-
siderable time

Now walking on the Water.

Two inventors are claiming attention Of
the scientific world just now in connec-
ton with a kind of aquatic shoes. Jose
Antonio, a Mexican student in the depart
ment of mechanical engineering at Cor
nell, gave a successful test of his device
by walking a mile and half on the sur
face of Cayuga lake. The shoes, which
closely resemble small boats. are con-
structed of tin, feet inches long, IA
inches wide and 93I inches deep. Each
contains four separate air chambers, be-
sides the compartment for the foot. The
shoes are equipped with collapsible fans,
which close as the wearer steps forward
and then open to prevent the shoes from
slipping backward.
A somewhat similar footgear for water
walking is described in the Technical
World Magazine for August. and credited
to Lieut.. Arthur T. Sadler of the United
States volunteer life-saving crew at
Charlesbank, Mass. Sadler claims to have
made a two-mile trip on his shoes. He
says he got his idea from watching the
way a duck uses it's feet. His shoes are
feet 3 inches long, o inches wide and
81 inches deep, being the smallest that
would carry his weight, 49, pounds.
