THE RAILROADS AND THE PUBLIC

The railroads have served notice on the people of Nebraska that they need not expect three-eent service for q two-cent fare. There is arithmetic for that statement, however erroneous it may be in other respects. Some of the finest trains are ordered discontinued, preachers are tO be taxed full fare, there are to be no special rates to polit- ical powwows, and excursions are to be abolished. The last, however, is not an unmixed hardship.
 The matter is to be taken to the courts on the complaint of the railroads that two-cent fares are confiscatory. That is a question of fact that will be solved by proof. It is pretty generally understood that the roads have accepted the situation in some of the more popu- lous states east of the Mississippi river, and that fact is pretty good evidence that two-cent fare is remunerative in such teeming states as New York, Penn. sylvania and Ohio.
 Rates, passenger or freight, depend greatly on the volume of business. A railroad can afford much cheaper rate between Chicago and New York than it can between Fl Paso and New Orleans. The freight rates between Pittsburg and New York are ridiculously low, owing to the immense tonnage carried; but the Louisville & Nashville would go into tue hands of d receiver if it gave like rates between Cincinnati and Chatta nooga.
 passenger car between Washington and New York has every seat taken, but passenger car between Omaha and Lincoln, .Neb., will be half empty. There is the difficulty about this rate contro versy. Railroads have two missions to serve the public and earn money on their cost. Unfortunately they have mis- calculated as to their duties. They have too frequently treated the public with contempt, and have had some rather eIade ideas as to the degree of honesty

 That is what all the row is about. If the roads had been as equitably man. aged as they have been efficiently man. aged, the public and the men who own and operate them would now be at as good understanding as are the public and the men who own and till farms. 1t is just as honorable to operate rail road as it is to cultivate a garden, but our roads have been manipulated dis honorably, rcaping where they had not strewed, A day of reckoning was bound to come, and it is nearly here. All the grand things the roads have done to build up the country are nearly forgot ten. Gratitude for that is swallowed in rage engendcred by watered stock.
 We wish the roads well out of it, but they have to face an angry public that might have been friendly. A few dashes of frcnzied finance in Wall street make many dashes of agrarina legislation out west.

Old Breeds or New?

"A correspondent OF commercial
Poultry thinks that some of the old and
valuable breeds are being neglected
for the sake Of new and untried ones.
With most of his ideas we can agree,
except when he claims that the brown
leghorns are all that is desirable for
"a poultryman. They are a good vari-
ETY. to keep when large numbers of
eggs are the great end in view, but
are too small for table fowls, and
are usually discarded for some of the
larger breeds where table birds are
wanted. The article is as follows:
This is the day Of new breeds, and
the amateur breeder is very likely to
be caught in the whirl, and perhaps
to his loss I do not mean by this
that any of the new breeds are TN
worthy, but it takes more skill and
experience to handle new variety
successfully than the beginner can
give them. And for that reason my
advice to the new breeder usually is
to select some of the old and tried
breeds until they have gained some
experience. Some will ask why begin
with an old breed? For this reason:
Most, if not all, of the new varieties
breed but very small per cent. of
first-class birds, having large num-

ply to farm and market fecks as we'll
as to those Of the fancier.
Wild Guineas.

Guineas we're raised by the old time
Greeks and Romans as table fowls but
they disappeared from Europe during
the dark ages. In Jamaica and some
of the Lesser Antilles they have re-
verted to the wild states and are now
hunted as game birds as is also the
case in England where they are kept
in reserves. In continental Europe,
however, large establishments are de-
voted to their breeding. Africa, the
original home Of the species, boasts of
a Guinea fowl which is beautifully
plumed The nape of the neck is COW
cred with short velvet-like brown down
and the lower part has long, lanceolate
flowing feathers of white, black and
blue The breast and sides are Of a
beautiful metallic blue, the middle of
the abdomen black and the fanks dull
pink with numerous spots of white
circled with black. The usual Ameri-
can fowl is the pearl variety. There is
as yet no standard of perfection set
for the guinea in this country as the
birds are not recognized by the Ameri-
can poultry association.-Exchange.
The Florida agriculturist., 1907-11-20
POULTRY DEPARTMENT
Some of the Joys of the Poultry
Breeder.

Probably most poultry keepers, who
have not tried it, have an idea that
breeders of fine stock get rich very
rapidly on account of what seems to
them to be very high prices charged
for pure bred poultry. Yet they know
that breeders of pure bred stock of any
other kind are expected to realize good
prices for their animals.
That the business is not all that it is
pictured, is shown by a letter written
to the Florida Poultry Journal:
It is not all plain sailing in the
poultry business.
We often get knocks from the most
unexpected sources, for instance: A
few weeks after the Tampa fair we
received an inquiry for a good breed
ing Barred Plymouth Rock cockerel.
We wrote in answer that we could
send good utility bird for 81 or
better ones for So to S. each.
The party sent us 81 for a cockerel
and instead of shipping him a cheap
one we put in one of the four we
had at Tampa, scored by Judge Lee
at 90 1-2, thinking it would be a
good ad, for us in that place. What
was Our surprise to get word in a
few days that he was fit only for the
pot and he was sending him back. SO
much for trying to be good. 1t cost us
dollar express charges.
The following good advice given by
an exchange is worth needing:
keep close watch on the growing
chickens. They will be the egg-pro-
ducers next winter and spring. Watch
what they eat. If one seems stupid, lift
it and put a little oil or grease on the
top of the head to kill any head louise
that may be there or under the bill.
The head louise bores into the top of
the chicks head and it will soon be too
weak to cope with the agony the lice
produce. The oil or grease kills the
vermin at once. 1t is wise precau-
ton to grease any and all chicks upon
the head when two days old, and two
weeks old. If any chicks show con-
stipation make firm mash of olive
oil and bran, or give a little oil from
spoon. If they show bowel trouble,
feed boiled rice Or boiled milk. Do
not be careless in feeding green nor
give them any rotten stuffs. A little
head of lettuce that has been long in
water and is little rotten in places
will make whole pen i'll in no time,
and boiled rice will have to follow.
Feed right and right things will fol-
low. Nothing can equal the dry chick
feed scientifically compounded by re-
liable people, and on sale at the supply
houses. In mashes, however dry, a
chick gets things he should not get
Cracked corn is not good for young
chicks and should be fed sparingly if
at all.
The Florida agriculturist., 1907-11-20

market fowls is hard matter if the
breeder is a beginner, while an old
breeder would have little trouble in
getting rid of them as farm stock at
profit Again, the beginner is after
perfection and high scores, and these
are not usually found in new breeds.
It takes time and skillful breeding
to breed any variety to high state
of perfection, and it takes skill and
lots of patience to breed new vari-
ETY. so as to reach high scores and
win in strong competition, and unless
the new breeder can win share of
the prizes he often becomes discour-
aged and falls by the wayside
Judging by some Of Our poultry
shows, it would seem as if some of
the very best breeds are being thrown
aside in the scramble TOR new breeds
Take, for example, the Dark Brahma,
Partridge, Cochin, Silver Wyandotte,
Hamburg, and even the lordly Light
Brahna. At many of Our smaller
shows there is only a sprinkling and
sometimes none Of these varieties.
Perhaps if I had not bred Brown Leg
horns, I would take up several of
I1ICoC OlCCQS, OuI LllC III CCQCl WIZ 1Ado
good flock of Browns usually finds
in them all that is possible to get out
of any breed of poultry-pleasure
and profit, and while other varieties
and breeds may come and go, this
variety quietly plods along and always
makes good.
This is an old subject, but one that
should receive very careful attention
about this time Of the year. I'm
fortunately it is overlooked by many
fanciers, and a visit to them next
spring will still find lot of stock
that should have gone to the butcher
in the fall. There are several reasons
why a careful culling is necessary.
If the culls are disposed Of now, there
is no danger of their finding their
way into some breeders yards or into
Our own. Feed is high at present,
and close culling reduces the feed
bill. Then more room is needed for
the better care and development Of
the choicest specimens. A flock that
has been carefully culled for many
years and no undesirable specimens
used in the breeding pen, must and
will improve in general quality. The
best specimens may not score any
higher or lay many more eggs, but
the general average will improve, and
breeding stock from such a flock is
much more valuable than from the
