In previous paper l presented the
reasons that 155 college students gave
me for leaving the farm to engage in
other occupations, says L. H. Bisley III
the Century Magazine. These students
saw little opportunity in farming, 40 per
cent. of them alleging that the business
offers no financial reward Twenty-six
per cent. said that the physical labor is
tco exacting, and approximately an equal
number that mo social opportunities aue
offered. These replies present one view
of the vexed question as to what the
place of the farmer is TO be in our com
ing civilization. There was strain of
hope running through some of the replies
that in the future the opportunities on
the farm would be improved; but for the
most part. the responses We're hopelessly
against the bushes of farming as a
means of personal achievement.
When / asked for the opinions or
those who had PLANNED to leave the farm,
I asked, also, for the reasons that moved
those who have planned to remove from
city conditions to farm life and those
who, reared on farms, intended to return
there after leaving college The re,-
sponses are more Illuminating ana, OF
course. they ar hopeful for those of US
who look to the open country to aid in
some large way in maintaining ond for
warding the best civilization.

"At all times and to all people l am

1900, with itching on my scalp and

then told him / would go and see ply

could go anywhere, but case OF

that was too old (S0). / went to an
eminent doctor in the city of Erie and
treated with him for six months, with
like results. l had read of the Gu

1t takes fight between stockholders
to give publicity to corporate earnings.
The Wells Fargo Express Company, it ap-
pears. according ITO the pleadings in a
suit now pending against that corpora
ttion by dissatisfied stockholders, is earn
ing 40 per cent ON its capital, although
1t is only paying s per cent. dividend
These stockholders charge that e. II.

controls the Wells Fargo Express Com
pany. is using its enormous surplus, said
to be S20OOO,O0O, although the reports
of the company indicate only $4,000.
600. in manipulating stock jobbing oper-
ations in Wall Street. Mr.. Hartman
wants to know what these minority
stockholders are going to do about it, as
he controls % per cent. of the stock.
As Express Companies win under the
new railroad rate bill be subject to the
control of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission after August 20, there would
seem to be simple way for those who
are shipped by this and other Express
Companies to settle the controversy by
manding more reasonable rates and thus
prevent any future surplus. Rates can
be cut so that instead of paying 40 per.
cent, they will produce s per cent,
which is all semi-public corparation
and monopoly should be allowed to
charge. The fact is that express com
panies- fast freight companies and other
inside graft of the railroads, are gener-
ally controlled by the railroad magnates
or their friends, and the enormous rake
off is divided between those large stock
holders that control the parent railroad.
A similar state of affairs exists with the
coal roads and the mining companies
and they must all be divorced from one
another and the public protected. If the
new law sufficiently stringent to accom-
plish that. Congress will be forced By
public opinion to so amend the law that
this plundering will cease.
