The Cost of Coal.

The cost of coal for steam locomo-
tives is approximately Is per cent of
the total operating expenses for steam
railroads, and is the largest of the ex-
penses for materials, says the Electric
Railway Review. Data contained in
the annual reports of a number of the
larger systems indicate that the annual
coal consumption is, on the average,
about 2, 500 tons for each steam locomo-
tive. From the United States census
report on "Street and Electric Rail
ways" covering 700 operating compan-
les the cost of fuel for power for cleo
trio railways appears to be about $15,-
900, 900, which is little over 1O.5 per
cent of the total operating expenses. -

WARNING TO FARMERS.
State EntomolOsist Svmons Advices
Spraying Fruit Trees.

This paper was in receipt of the fol-
lowing letter from State Entomologist
Symons Tuesday morning with the re-
quest that it be given publicity through
these columns:
Much depends upon the activity of the
general fruit grower at this time of
the year as to the life of his trees in
the future and quality of his fruit
this season. The San Jose Scale is
generally disseminated throughout the
state. Even if you are sure your trees
have not this pest among them, it would
be money well spent to spray them as a
preventative as well as to add vigor to
the trees.
Trees infested with the above scale
must be treated at least once a year
and should be sprayed while the trees
are dormant. We find that with our
experiments, the late application in the
spring just before the buds opens, seems
to be the most satisfactory time
We, therefore, urge every orchardist
or person who has few trees to give
them attention and spray them this year
with the lime-sulphur wash, which we
find to be the best insecticide for the
control of this pest.
The Department stands ready to aid
all persons in the state as to giving
further instructions in making and
applying the spray mixture, both by
personal as well as public demonstra-
tons. 1t also stands ready to enforce
the law in direfully neglected cases and
we will give our prompt attention to
complaints in any vicinity where such
cases exists. Get your materials and
apparatus ready to commence work at
a favorable time. The most convenient
method of making the lime-sulphur
wash and discussion Of the other in
secticides on the market in this state,
are given in bulletin No 112 published
by the Maryland Experimental Station,
copy of which can be had for the ask
ing.
Any further information will be glad
ly given.

ton Tuesday night, when peal after
peal of sharp thunder accompanied by
vivid flashes of lightning which illumi-
mated the heavens in all directions pre-
vailed from about eight until eleven
o'clock.
Rain in torrents poured down, continu-
ing during the entire night which has
resulted in the raising of the waters to
a high stage.
Monday large flocks of migratory birds
geese, ducks and other water fowl
were seen passing over town. Out
Hooppole road two miles a flock of
about a hundred geese settled in an open
field where they fed several hours
before being disturbed.
Bluebirds, robins and other summer
birds have come and it now looks as
through spring is about to open.

REBUILDING Of THE
OLD NATIONAL ROAD
Pennsylvania May Restore Historic
Turnpike Built Early Last Century.

There is strong sentiment among
members of the Pennsylvania legisla7
ture in favor of the passage of the bill
appropriating 1920. 600 for the rebuild
ing of part of the famous National road
IN Southwestern Pennsylvania, and
early action on the measure is expected.
1t is pointed out that the commonwealth
has an obligation to fulfill in caring for
this historic turnpike, having received it
IN good condition from the National
government many years ago with the
understanding that it would be main
tanned IN proper manner.
The road was projected early in the
last century to run from Washington
through Maryland, Pennsylvania, what
is.now West Virginia, Ohio and Indiana,
the objective point being St. Louis. 1t
was built in parts, the section in Penn
sylvania being in Somerset, Fayette and
Washington counties. About 1880 steps
were taken to turn it over to the states
wherein it lay, but in the case of Penn
sylvania objection was made that the
road had fallen into decay and the
commonwealth officers declined to as
sumo charge unless Congress put it into
good condition. An appropriation of
$500, 900 was made.for the purpose and
good part of the highway reconstruct
ed so that in 1885 the Pennsylvania
authorities were satisfied with it and
the title passed to the Keystone state.
Since then the road has been in the
jurisdiction of the state, the only stretch
of road in the whole commonwealth to
be solely state road. Until two years
ago it was maintained by tolls collected
at the toll houses which were at fire
quent intervals along the road, but in
1905 the legislature abolished the toll
houses and made an appropriation of
500, 900 to maintain the road The
state has already built some fine con-
crete bridges and is asking bids for the
rebuiling of two sections. This, with
the survey and other work, will use up
most of the money and unless the ap-
preparation asked is granted the state
will be without funds to maintain its
own road and will be in the position of
having laws requiring townships to
maintain roads when it may be without
funds to care for it's own. From an
economic standpoint the road is very
valuable and its maintenance is much
desired.
