N THE DIM DISTANCE
OWNERSHIP OF RAILROADS
BY Government is Long Ways off
Says Interstate Commissioner Lane
HE Thinks that Railways Should
Keep Out Of Politics.
Ipublishers' PressJ

San Fralc.sco, rcb. 1.-San Fran
cisco Chamber of Commerce gave a
luncheon to the interstate commerce
commissioner, Franklin X. Lane. In
an address Mr.. Lane said William j.
Bryan recently told him that even
tually the United States would come
to government ownership Of railroads.
but Mr.. Lane gave it as his opinion
that the day would remain far OF 1t
the interstate commerce committee
had proper powers and treated all
problems in the spirit of trial court.
III railroads will only keep out OF pol
itics," said he, that practice which
brings them more into disrepute with
the people than anything else they do,
think government ownership will
continue long way on"
John C. Stubs, speaking for the
railroads, said: I'VE can stand any
law that may be enacted by congress,
provided it be also enforced against
our competitors. There Is no more
trouble over the alleged favoritism
shown cities than that shown individ-
ual citizens. Everywhere in the west
cities are trying to be distributing GEN.
ters and receive advantage over the
other cities in their zone. II the COM
mittee desires to sit as judge, 1t will
have the support of shippers and Of
every decent railroad man In the
United States"

MAIL CLERKS WILL
WANT STEEL CARS
They Feel That They Should
be Given More Protection
by the Railroads.
FIRST MAIL CARS CRUDE
VERITARIE DEATH TRAPS BEING
CONSTRUCTED ALMOST EN-
TIRELY OF WOOD AND MANY
ACCIDENTS RESULTED.

| The railway mail clerks will, at
their next national convention, along
with other things. ask for the construc
ton OF steel mail cars for all lines IN
the United States. was the statement
of a railway mail clerk at the Penn
sylvania station yesterday. 1t is prob
able that the district postal clerks
convention which will be held in Gin
cinnati in April, will also bring pres
sure to bear upon railroad companies
for the installation of steel cars. The
district in which the Richmond mail
clerks are part is composed of Indi
ana, Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee
and their influence will be greatly felt
The development of the railway pos
tai system is remarkable and very in
teresting when it is understood that
it was only through the efforts OF the
railway mail clerks that the present
day facilities are an actuality. The
first mail cars used in this country.
and their use was universal on all
lines, was the old fashioned wooden
mail car. No projections whatever
clerks. The actual working facilities
inside the cars were very crude and
as the railroads furnished the cars at
a stipulated price paid by the United
States government, they cared not
what kind of cars were used. Soon
pressure was brought to bear upon the
railroad companies and a reinforced
car was the result. Even these proved
to be death traps as in all wrecks the
sidewalks and roofs of the cars left
the floor and clerks and helpers were
precipitated to the ground amidst the
wheels and wreckage. A new feature
of rods In the tops of the cars was
added, whereon railway mail clerks
could hang in case they had even the |
slightest intimation of danger. AS the |
result of the rods many lives have |
been saved as it is always the top por-
tons of wooden cars that is thrown |
to one side in the wreckage, saving |
the men from death amidst the grind |
ing wheels. Steel Orders throughout |
the cars were then introduced and |
abated the loss of life to great ex-
tent but even these are not what they |
should be, although used on the larger
number of lines throughout the Unit
ed States at the present time. The
Erie railroad has introduced the steel
mail car and 1t has proved entirely
to both the railroad and
mail clerks. One steel car on the Erie
was in three headon collisions and
the car suffered no damage. Only one
man was hurt in the three wrecks and
he received a broken finger. Electric
lights have been introduced to protect
the clerks against fire, while the en-
tire enteriors of the cars have been
furnished in the best possible style.

The Illinois engineers estimated that

tain to be insufficient to meet the

scarcely dispose of the food water of
the section to be drained even In its
present sparsely populated condition,
and IL the Inhabitants multiply as ex-
pected, the Calumet river, as projected
by the local engineers, would actually
be forced back into Lake Michigan,
just as it does now, in spite of all the
expensive improvements. So the in
ternational board is prepared to rec
gregate $17.000,00O.
AS an Offset against this increase in
expenditure. the board shows that in
stead of having to expend the whole

practically be necessary to carry out
the local project, under the boards
plans the total of SIT 100000 would be
expended in the course of a consider
able number of years, making the pay

to the increase in wealth and develop

While prepared In this way to meet

Secretary Taft has not passed on
the recommendation OF the chief Of en-
gineers that he deny the application of

fact that it will require study of the

ages of "oleo," whether marked or un-

asked to produce orders showing that
the customer distinctly ordered oleo.
If such orders were not shown the oleo
was seized under an old law, which
makes illegal the removal of oleo in
small packages from the original tax

commission ruled that only when the

into consideration, for after all, tie weather is perhaps the great est factor III the success of our spring operations.
 In connection with what MT. Brown has said, t might be add ed that one reason why fall spraying has not been more gen. orally recommended Is that whale oil soap and tlle lirne-sulphur wash, applied in fall. are likely to injure the fruit buds for the following season $ crop, and the
 man who kills the insects also destroys at least part of one sea- sons crop. Fall spraying, there fore, did not become popular un- til the newer miscible oil sprays were brought out, which can be used safely and effectiyelyin fall, after the leaves drop. On thls subject Prof. Smith of the New Jersey Experiment Station says:
 The wrong time for spraying has been generally advised, and instead of delaying until late spring. our work. to be most ef- feetive, should be done iu tue late fall.while the scales are yet active and before the trees are really dormant. Thereason that winter and carly >pring appiica- tons were recommended original l5is that inJury to fruit buds was noted with some insecticides and on some trees.
 1t would certainly seem, from developments of the last few years. that orchards which are badly infested should by all means be sprayed in autumn. as recommended by Mr. Brown and Prot. Smith, after the leaves have been of ten days 10 two weeks, and then in spring, Ii live scales are still tound-as they most likely will be-another applica- ton can be given. After two such treatments the insect should be readily controlled by one spraying each year.-Fruit Grow ar

FALL SPRAYING FOR
 SAN JOSE SCALE

United States growers every where are trying to devise more effective ways of fighting the iu- sect, and among the plans which are becoming more popular IS to spray the trees in autumn. just after the leaves have fallen, and before the insects have retreated to their winter quarters. Mr. A. N. Brown, Wyoming, Del, who has had much practical exper- fence in fighting this insect, sends Us the following notes on fall spraying, which will be ap- preeiated by everyone who Is com pelled 10 fight this very trouble some insect:
 Fall spraying for San Jose scale has advantages over spraying that orchardists are beginning 10 recognize. The first that can be said in favor of this plan IS that the scale Is then least resistant, the inerustation being soft and the young larvae of the late broods still plainly in evidence. At this stage the contact reme- dies which must be used in tie control of this pest are more ef- feetive, because the scale cover ing Is Tot hard. and therefore is more easily penetrated. All scales which survive the winter are found in the spring well pro tected by the hard, bony crust formed over them, and they are then the most resistant against remedies used for their destrue- tion.
 Again, If spraying is done in the fall, and upon examination of the sprayed trees Ill the following March there are live scales still found, We have an opportunity to spray them before danger of injuring buds or foliage. This gives us two shots at the scale at  close range, and if the work Is properly done-note l say prop erly done with almost ang one of the recommended remedies, there will be absolutely no doubt about results.
 Again. the fruit-grower wIll find more time to de the work et spraying ii the fall than in the spring. therefore he is more like ' to dc a better job
 Again, there isn 10 frost com- ing out of the ground in the fall to prevent the orchard,st from go- ing into the orchard 10 spray whenever other conditions are favorable. This Is not the case in the spring. Many orchards are located where this one thing IS serious drawback to the COL trol ot San Jose scale.
 Therefore all things consld- cred. fall spraying has many ad- yantageS over spring spraying. and Ii is certainly more effective. which has been proven by those who have been praotieing fall spraying for some years.
 1t must be understood. how ever, that al least ten days should intervene between the dropping ot the leaves and the time that spraying should begin. as just when the leaves drop is when the little fruit bud for the next season is atits most tender stage. II is unclothed, and care full examination has shown that this bud takes on ueW covering in the course of ten days or two weeks. after which II can resist any eaastie action of carefully prepared washes.
 There are details IT all spray ing operations which cannot be explained on paper. The or chardist himself must be ebseTg- ant; he must aoquaint himself with the habits of the insect he IS fighting and the growth of the tree and bud. Then, above all.
