Bad Hen Habits

Bad habits among hens de-

Eating more poultry and less
salt pork will be good for the

Crowding chicks together in

The TON-M|LF POLICY
Claimed That 6. N. and N.
p. Subordinate Efficien-
cy to Dividends

In the Farm, Stock & Home, a rail-
road man is thus quoted on transport
lions concerning the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific:
I suppose you Know that Mr. Hill is
in control of both roads now, and that
eliminates the only competition there
ever was between them, competition in
operation; there never was any COM
petition in rates. It has always been
Mr. Hills policy to subordinate every
other aItor In railroading to divi-
dends. and the quickest and mcst d.
rect road to increase dividends IS
what he calls ECONOMY, and his
measure to economy is the cheapness
with which he can transport ton q
mile causing his policy to be called
the ''ton. mile policy" To secure the
minimum he desires, the engine must
haul its limit when at work, and q
train crew must be in charge Of ton.
mage up to the limit of it's ability to
care for. .>--~.~> ~-
Hauling light trains or empty cars
is not to be thought of in connection
with such q system, and thus ef1lci-
ency of service is subordinated to
dividends, the chief end of the ton
mile policy: and thus the interests Of
farmers who would ship grain. and
all citizens who would have coal and
other necesearies. are sacrificed to the
appetite for dividends.
The Hill conception of economy re-
duced the section crews on the N. P.
from men to 8, big saving ~ on
such large system, and the track
watchmen, each one Of whom had to
traverse his section on foot daily,
were all laid off, and il was not long
before the N. P. was good second to
the Il. n. in accidents large and
small. Then accidents caused by
spreading rails, a cause that never
should exist. and rarely if ever did
on the N. P. under the old regime.
became as common on that road as
they have been on the e. N. for
years. To the lay mind this seems to
be very poor economy. but doubtless
'high finance" has computed all
factors in the problem and found that
an occasional smash-up of train and
engine, accompanied by the manning
or killing of q few common people,
entails less expense in the aggregate
than prevention would. ..-S-- .-----.=-.,
But there Is another eide to the pic
ture that in justice should be shown.
Railroads are woefully en- barassed by
the labor situation. The demand for
il is so great and the relative supply
50 small that laborers become inditfer-
ent, careless and arrogant, u condition
that causes many accidents, especially
in yards while switching, where there
ia but little risk to life or limb; but
they seriously embarrass tie move
ment of trains. OF 60 new and very
efficient engines put onto the N. P.
this fill 8 or 10 have been burned out
already by careless or incompetent
men, thus contributing largely to the
further congestion OF traffic.
