STATEMENT TO STOCKHOLDERS

NEW YORK, January n.-Outdoing al
the other railroads of the country In Its
demands for new capital, the Pennsylvania
railroad issued yesterday an announcement
of the intention of it's management to ask
the stockholders at their annual meeting
on March II to authorize 800 100000 OF
new stock and an additional sl0O.0OO.0OO ir
bonds. Within two weeks of the death OF
President Cassatt the roads directors ad-
init that his plans for increased facilities
stupendous as they were thought wher
announcement was made of them from
time to time, Tell far short of the actual re-
quirementS, and that tens of millions more
will be needed to keep pace with the de-
mands for new equipment and additional
tracks.
How much of these new securities. will
have to be Used in the near future has
not been determined. 1t is thought thai
before the end of the year enough of the
new securities will be offered to supply
funds to pay off s5O,000,GGO of notes which
mature next November, to meet the cost
of this years work on the New York city
terminal estimated at $20,000,0JJ, and to
pay for new equipment and other facfl-
tiles the need of which had not been fore
seen last June when President Cassatt is
sued his statement of what he expected
the financial requirements of the road
would De lot the next Two years.
How far those estimates fell short OF
the roads actual needs is aptly illustrat-
ed by the fact that in addition to the
orders for new equipment announced at
that time the Pennsylvania has had to
order 17.G00 more steel freight cars and
other equipment in proportion. These ex-
ira freight cars alone will cost some
thing like $1S0O0,000, and if much
more money is needed for other general
purposes, the total requirements of the
road for new capital this year will not
fall short of $110,OUO0O0, and may even ex-

The Pennsylvania railroad last year di-
rectly or through the Pennsylvania Com
pany, apart from smaller issues by other
subsidiaries, put out s120.O00,OCO of new
securities, but the present issue dwarfs all
the roads previous issues. as well as the
recent huge issues by the railroads of the
northwest. The last issue of $4,000, 600 Of
bonds by the Pennsylvania, which were
placed in Paris last June, brought out much
'unfavorable comment on the apparently I'M
ending demands of the road for new capt.
tai. The fact is freely admitted by the
Pennsylvania management and the road s
bankers but it is pointed out that the de-
mands made upon the Pennsylvania exceed
those made on any other railroad in the
country, and that these have to be met, no
matter how much money it may take.
The present increase in its securities,
we'll as many of those that have pre-
coded it, are accounted for by the Penn
sylvanias policy of maintaining for itself
a practical monopoly of the railroad trans
portaton within the state of Pennsylvania
To keep its position of advantage the road
is compelled to supply new facilities fast
the traffic grows under penalty of seeing
other roads step in to share in the business,
which the Pennsylvania management is I'M
willing to have happen if it be pre-
vented.

WHAT TO FEED WITH CORN.
Missouri Experiment Station Proves
That Lnseed Oil Is Best.

That some other feed should be
used with corn to secure the best re-
suits In pig feeding is known by all
practical feeders. The gains are bet
ter than on a pure corn ration, and III
the other food Is well chosen the gains
may be made at lower cost. In a test
at the Missouri experiment station
comparison of wheat, middlings and
other purchased feeds used with corn
meal was made.
With corn at 25c a bushel 1t would
be an even thing so far as the cost OF
gain is concerned, whether corn be
fed alone or with oil meal at $50 per
ton. In these tests, linseed oil meal
proved to be better than wheat mid
dlings as food to use with corn.
The oil meal ration was SO much
more palatable than the middlings,
that much more of 1t was eaten daily.
They made more rapid gains and
seemed to thrive better upon this feed.
To be equal to oil meal at $50 per ton,
middlings would have to be bought
at from $l4 to SIS per ton. As oil
meal is usually cheaper than $50 In
Missouri and middlings worth SIS or
more, these tests show that linseed oil
meal is one of the best feeds to use
with corn.

. BIG OR LITTLE FARMS.
The Size Depends on Location Writes
an Iowa Farmer.

Whether a man should have a big
or a little farm depends on his loca-
ton. In this part of Iowa, writes a
Clarke county farmer in Farmers Re,
view, we must depend on the more ey-
tensive methods of agriculture TO give
us a living A man that has farm
of only so acres or 1870 aces will
have hard chance to make a living.
He needs at least 100 acres, and II he
has 800 acres he will be still mere
fortunate
II must be remembered that 1t takes
a good deal of land to produce paying
crops of corn, wheat and other cereals.
II a man raises cattle he must have
a large part of his farm in pasture.
II he has but 80 acres and there
comes a wet year or very dry year.
either of which win cut short his
crops, where is he? But even then, II
he has 100 acres he will be able to
produce enough to meet his obliga-
tons.
The SO-acve farm is all right near a
good-sized cty, where truck farming
can be followed largely enough to in.
sure the farmer a living. He can then
constantly get manure for use on his
farm. But in the country away from
the large cities 1t is far otherwise.

MORE MINERS DIE.
Third Mine Explosion In West Vir-
'ginia in Two Weeks Killed
Thirty Men.

Elkins, w. Va, Feb. 5.-The thirc
mine explosion in West Virginia with
in two weeks occurred Monday at the
Davis Coal & Coke company's mine
No. 25 at Thomas, near here, and 20
or 80 miners are said 10 have been
Killed.
Tho disaster occurred shortly after
I o'clock Monday morning. Late Mon
day the first rescuing party entered
the mine. The bodies of six foreign
crs and one American were recovered
at a distance CT 10 feet from the Shaft.
Before further progress could be
made deadly wave OF poisonous
fumes enveloped the rescuing party
which was composed of General Man
ager OFT, ID. M. Boyd, Supt. Henry
tiine, Daniel Jones, Mine Boss, Arthur
Stewart and John jenkins. Before the
rescuiny party could reach the surface
Jones died from suffocation. Monday
night efforts were being made to en-.
ter the mine again.
There Is no possible hope that the
men still in the mine are alive. The
number Of entombed men is estimated
at 80 and II is probable there are
more.

WORK IN THE TOOL Sled.


~
One of the many profitable winter
jobs can be found in the tool shed IN
going over, cleaning UP and repairing
the machinery that will be used next
summer. After a seasons work there
Is nearly always something about a
mower binder or cultivator Wnlcn
needs fixing When one wants to use
tool he seldom has time to fix 1t,
and If it must be repaired the work Is
usually done as quickly as possible
with an eye only to the work immedi.
ately at hand.
Flows may now be cleaned OIL ana
oiled, hoes and mattocks sharpened,
scythes ground, etc. Then there are
always bolts to tighten, fractures ana
breaks to patch up, and adjustments
Of various kinds to make II any
machine needs repairs that must be
ordered from distance this should be
done during the winter and the ma
chine made ready for use. II this IS
neglected now, remarks Farm and
home, you may forget all about 1t I'M
till you want to use it, and then you
will be in hole
A few hours work at odd times VIII
have all the tools ready for use when
the time comes, if they are stored in a
shed or room where you can get at
them and the rain and snow cannot.
IF they are left, as many tools are,
out in the weather, they will be IN
bad shape when you go to use them.
So if you have no tool shed 1t would
be a good winter job to build one.

Why Some Countries Are Uninhabited.

A mere glance at our maps i'm
presses few general facts upon us.
We see that the largest areas of the
unknown are now in lands that are too
dry, as in the Sahara, the desert of
Arabia, and the steppes of Mongolia:
lands that are too wet and hot, slim
ulating almost impenetrable forest
~growths, as In parts of the Amazon
and Congo basins; lands that are too
cold and bleak, as portions of the
northern areas Of America and Asia.
Even the characteristics of the inhab-a
itants influence the extent of the I'M
explored. In proportion to total area,
says Cyrus c. Adams In Harper's
Monthly, there is more unknown sur
face In Liberia than In any other po-
litical subdivision of the world, be-
cause the Liberians, content to live
along the coast, have scarcely entered
their vast forest mazes, though they

More important than statutory re
form for the future of life insurance is
the reform OF reason and moral senti-
ment, declares Francis c. Lowell in
Atlantic. We must come to consider
unpaid officers who give their time to
public affairs as persons making a
charitable contribution to the welfare
of the community. The corporate
members and the directors of an insur-
ance company, like the corporate mem
bers and directors of savings bank,
must consider themselves, and must
be considered by others, to be engaged
In work OF public charity. A savings
bank, indeed, Is supposed to be a re-
ceptacle for the savings of the poor,
though the supposition Is not always
true; while life insurance company
Is receptacle for the savings of some
well-to-do or even rich. Charitable or
public service, however, may be rem
dered, even where some beneiciaries
are able to pay for the service. Where
the well being Of the community, or Of
many of its members, requires great
service rendered alike to rich and
poor, those fitted to render it may be
asked to give their labor without pay,
If, for any reason, that is more con-
venient This Is the rule with col
ieges and libraries, art museums and
hospitals.
