there is great density of travel ln thickly populated communities the rate may be ample compensation tc the railway companies, while ill thinIy populated sections it may be altogether too low to meet expenses.
 Taken generally, the passenger business of the railroad compani@s is unproftablo. The companies have always made passenger rates low comparison with the service render- ed. If the legislatures throughout the country make cents the max imum rate in all sections the proo- able result will be to cause some rates to be raised and some lowered. In fact, the railroads may be com pelled to make ? cents a mile the minimum rate.
 Tt would be much better to per init the railway companies to ad- just the passenger rates according to circumstances, by considering the necessities of the different To- calities."
 According to railway officials identified with lines that have heavy passenger traffic, the imme- diate result of the new law would be to work hardship on the su- burban passengers in the vicinity of large cities.
 Erie officials said that heir su- burban passenger rate averaged about 1. cents per mile.
 Pennsylvania and Reading off, cials said that their suburban rates averaged about 12 cents per mile.
 In self-protection, to offset the losses from the new rate in less densely populated territories, these roads may advance their commuta- tion rates.

and labor-saving devices. Solve the credit system by producing the nec- essary food supplies at home. Solve the question of marketing the crop for fair and profitable prices by re- taining the ownership of the staple after it is made and placing it on the market only when prices are satisfactory. The planting, culti- vating and harvesting of the crops can be done by individual action Marketing, however, must be done under modern methods of compact organization and system. While ar ranging for a broader expanse of diversified planting this spring, do not forget the equally important matter of cementing your local or ganiZation and making the right kind of preparations for systematic ing the sale of the crop next season. A crop which can not be sold profit ably to the producer is not wortl, the time and labor expended in it's production Let every man do his duty in 1907, and win the success to which his great avocation in the field of production entities him.

BLESSING ID
 PEOPLE HERE Sufferers Who Haven t Known Relief For Many Years Now Enjoy Perfect Health.
IS EASILY PREPARED
This Prescription is Doing Much Good and May Mean Less Sick ness Here When It's Merits Be. come Thoroughly Known.

This is a message that will bring happiness again into many families and sunshine into the lives of hun dreds of disheartened and discOur- aged men and women here. It re- uuires little inconvenience, for 1t can't be bought already prepared. It ih simple home prescription now being made known in all the larger cities through the newspa- pers It is intended to check the many cases of rheumatism, kidney and bladder trouble which have made so many cripples and invalids and weddings of some of our brightest and strongest people.
 The druggists here have been notified to supply themselves with the ingredients and the sufferer will have no trouble to obtain them The prescription is as follows: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Adl SOlI, ohC ouAAN1, etii' Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by shaking we'll in bottle. The dose is one teaspoonful after each meal and at bedtime.
 Recent experiments, even in se- were hospital cases, prove this sim pie mixture the remedy for Rheu- matism, because of it's positive ac tion upon the eliminative tissues of the kidneys It compels these most vital organs to filter from the blood and system the waste impuri ties and uric acid which are the cause of rheumatism. It cleanses the kidneys, strengthens them and removes quickly such symptoms as backache, blood disorders, bladder weakness, frequent urination, pain ful, sealding and discolored urine. It acts as a powerful stimulant to the entire kidney and bladder struc- ture, puts. new life into them and invigorates the entire tract. It makes the kidneys clean the blood. The Dandelion will take care of liver trouble and constipation, and is fine for the stomach.
 All the ingredients, states a we'll known local druggist. are of vegeta- ble extraction, making it safe and harmless prescription at any time.
 Those who suffer and are accus- toned to purchase a bottle of patent medicine should not let a little in- convenience interfere with making mp this prescription. Wherever this becomes generally known, states a large Eastern publication, it ruins the sale of the patent medicines and so-called rheumatism and kid ney cures, which is it's best endorse ment of virtue.

President Cotton Association Gives Wholesome Advice to Farmers.

Wholesome Advice to Farmers.
 Atlanta, Ga, March z, 1907.
 The cotton growers of the South are urged to adopt the policy of di- versified farming under an inten- sive system for the crop year of 1907. On account of labor condi- tions and high prices for all kinds of supplies, the intensive culture of cotton at the expense of the pro- duction of necessary food supplies on the farm is policy which has long since proved suicidal to the average cotton grower. A general reduction this year of 10 per cent in the total cotton acreage planted last year and an increased acreage of 10 per cent in food supplies will, to very great extent, solve many Of the present perplexing problems which confront Southern cotton growers. Every effort should be ex- erted by each individual cotton grower this year to steer clear of the credit system and establish a cash basis of trading The credit system is responsible for the enor- nous receipts of spot cotton during the fall and early winter, which al ways tends to depress prices.
 It will be difficult to systematize the warehousing and financing of spot cotton so as to regulate the supply to meet the actual and legit- innate demands of consumption so long as the credit system honey 1 combs the South as it does today. There is but little hope of relief ] from the iniquities of the credit sys- 1 tenn so long as cotton growers per l sist in keeping their corn cribs and smokehouses in the West and using their local supply merchants as the medium through which the pur- chase and distribution of the neces- sary staple commodities are made
 Improve Methods.
 Solve the labor problem by plant 1 ing fewer acres, cultivate and fer tilize better and use the latest and most approved farming implements

RAILWAYS ALARMED
 BY AGENT RATE
Widespread Legislation May Force Increased Transportation Charges in Other Di-
 rectiOnS.

New York. March 7.-Railway of ticials view with considerable ap- prehension the ultimate results of the wave of legislation now sweep a minimum 2-cent-a rate for carrying passengers.
 Iowa and Pennsylvania are the latest states to enforce this meas ure, Ohio having inaugurated the movement year ago. Nearly a dozen other states have followed suit.
 In Iowa, Indiana and Missouri the 2-cent-fare bill has passed one or both houses of the legislatures and the states of West Virginia and Arkansas have sent 2-cent-fare bills to the governors for their sigma lures. The railroads seemingly are making no attempts to appeal to the courts against the law.
 Victor Morawetz, chairman of the Board of Directors of the Atcihson system, who is regarded as an au- thority on railway corporation mat ters, said yesterday, in speaking of the movement which has assumed wide dimensions:
 Whether the 2-cent rate is a reasonable one or not depends alto gether on circumstances. Where
