Reduction of Wages in Train
Service Means Bitter
Struggle.

READY SUFFERED.
PAY is BASED ON MILEAGE

Cleveland. Feb. 21.-Warren Stone,
grand chief of the Brotherhood of Lo-
connective Engineers. today made the
following statement in connection with
the reported purpose of some railroad
companies to order a general reduction
in the wages of employees:
THE threatened reduction of the
wages of employees in train service IS
absolutely unjdstified from any point
of view Their pay is based on mileage
basis, practically piece work, and they
are only paid when these services are
performed. Wages of employees in
train service fall parallel with the
shrinkage in business, plus increased
living expenses away from home. When
their earnings are $150 per month their
expense of living away from home is
about Is per cent, while at the present
reduced rate of s70-which has TO be
met by hundreds, under present con-
ditiops-that expense will increase to
al least 20 per cent of earnings, be-
home terminal until there is a full ton
mage train to be handled. making a to-
tai automatic reduction in wages from
go to 20 per cent.
THE roads are getting the same re-
turn in freight receipts for the serv-
ice rendered as they did when the
business was good, and there is no con-
sistency in asking men to accept fur
Their reductions than result from the
present business shrinkage. and the
full power of the Brotherhood of LO-
connective Engineers will be used if nee
essaTy TO prevent any further reduc-
tion. because it would be absolutely
unjust.
Views of William G. Lee.
William G. Lee, assistant grand mas
ter of the Brotherhood of Railroad
Trainmen, speaking on the same sub
ject, dictated the following:
THE wage workers have not had a
thing TO do with this panic and loss of
business except to suffer from the mis-
management of some employers and
spectators who Numbered in the game
of dollars on Wall street. If he works
he produces just as much per hour as
he ever did. His living expenses are
just as high as before.
"AIl classes of trainmen are paid by
the mile or trip: and a reduction of
miles, runs or trips made means a re-
duction of the amount paid for by the
employers.
There can be no good argument pre-
sented why trainmen shouldt receive
lower trip or mileage rates for miles
run. Freight trains are not run unless
business requires it. ~ Corporations
never carry an overload of labor. but
labor is usually compelled to carry an
overload of capitalization.
st is no fault of labor that finan-
ciers play with their money and lose,
nor is it the business of labor to suf-
fer the losses sustained when its en-
ployers reach too far into the fire and
get their fingers burned
Our principal business now is to
maintain the present standard of liv-
ing, which means to hold to the pres
ent standard of wages, and unless all
signs fail railroad employees will OPP
pose to the bitter end any attempt to
reduce wages"

ESCAPED DEATH
BY MERE CHANCE
Narrowing Experience of Joe
Bernor in Reaching Land
From Lighthouse.

Toledo, o.. Feb. 21.-Fleeing in ter
ror over long stretches of treaeherous
ice from the Toledo harbor lighthouse,
where for seven days he had been i'm
prisoned with the dead body of Captain
Delos Hayden, Joe Bernor reached the
city yesterday afternoon. He brought
the news of the death to friends and
vigil beside the dying man in the lone
ly lighthouse and his still more terri
flying experience while watching over
the dead body, waiting for a turn in
the weather which would permit his
escape over the ice.
Faithful Unto Death.
Hayden was conscious to the last.
and left a message for each of his rel
atives and friends. He did in his faith
full companions arms. Bernor placed
the body in one of the lower rooms of
the lighthouse, and began his wait for
an opportunity to reach shore. Around
the lighthouse the ice was firm under
the snow, and when Bernor started he
had strong hopes of reaching the shore
in safety Yet the trip was extremely
perilous, he not being equipped with
a pike pole, with which to sound the
ice.
Safe After PeriIous Trip.
Many times he fell into air holes.
going into the icy water TO his knees.
At many places also he found open
water and frequently he narrowly, and
by the merest chance, escaped death.
Mr.. Bernor cannot explain how he
happened to reach Cedar Point yester-
day morning. He had no idea as to
the direction in which he was walking,
and had he gone 200 feet either east or
west out of the course he happened to
take, he would have missed land alto
gether He took few hours rest at
Cedar Point, and then proceeded to the
city.

the SLEEPING SICKNESS
WHICH MEhrs DEATH

How many readers have heard of this
terrible disease? 1t prevails in that
ear-away country-Africa- especially
the Congo district. 1t is caused by
the bite Of the tsetse fly When It
bites q person. the sleeping symptoms
begin and finally the sufferer sleeps
until death occurs.
Contrast this with the peaceful,
balmy sleep Of health. Is there ANY
thing more wearing than to lie awake
at night, tossing about, nervous, with
cold feet, hot head and mercy knows
what else? Short Of letting the tsetse
ny biteous we would do almost any
thing for relief. How can we pre-
vent 1t? Mr.. George Hayes, Of
Union City. Pa. writes: II had lost
my appetite, was all rundown. could
not sleep nights. I had tried every
thing without relief. Vinol was rec
commended, and to my surprise, 1t
helped me at once: gave me splendid
appetite, and now I sleep soundly"
What Vinol did for Mr.. Hayes. it will
do for every rundown. nervous and
overworked person who cannot sleep.
VINOL is sold in Franklin by

thus creating new breed is to secure
a hornless Shorthorn.
1t has been decreed by the powers
that be in this new departure that the
horns are at best but a superfuity.
The feed-yard records during the past
twenty years show complete revolu-
ton in the dehorning practice. Elk
cept in the case of very young steers
the dehorning practice now has full
sweep the country over. However,
there is usually some direct loss to be
attributed to dehorning preparatory
to putting in feed yard, but the indi-
rect loss from the setback given the
steers is certain, and from the very
nature of things is not to be estimated
definitely in dollars and cents. 1t is
demonstrated, however, that the de-
horned steers are far and away better
feeders, and better shippers, and bet
ter sellers than are those THAT wear
their horns. 1t would therefore be like
butting against stone wall to attempt
to stay the practice of dehorning for
feed yard purposes. The Polled Dur
ham fancier points the way to avoid
it. The Polled Hereford breeder falls
in line to the same end.

u p Marks, North Yakima, Wash"
says Horn and Hoof, "is the latest ac-
QUESTION to the Holstein breeding ranks.
We should not say latest, however, for
Mr.. Marks has been breeding Holsteins
for the past eighteen or twenty years.
Back in the eighties Mr. Marks bought
the bull David Longmire 1898 to head
his herd, and several years later he was
superseded by Midnight Jewel 33456, but
it was last winter that Mr.. Marks made
the first shipment of any note from the
East. Of this lot Mr.. Marks writes: 1
am establishing a herd of strictly high
class Holstein-Friesian cattle. On the
18th of December I arrived from Mime
apolis, Mimi, with one of the choicest
lots of cattle ever brought to the state,
both in individual merit and in breed
ing. Eight of them were secured from
the celebrated Woodlake herd of John
B. Irwin, which has become famous for
combining these two qualities to a high
degree. 1t may be recalled that the
grand champions, Sir Mechthilde Jewel
and Chloe Mechthilde, came from this
from the same herd. The bull is a son
of Sir Ormsby Hengerveld DeKol. In
this lot I got two handsome daughters
of Canary Mercedes Paul. the richest
bred bull of the Canary family. One of
these is from a daughter of Johanna
Rue I'd Paul DeKol, with an official rec
ord of over 20 pounds of butter in seven
days at three years, her milk averaging
over per cent lat. AnOlHer one Car
ried the blood of Alta Posch, the heifer
that made the worlds record over 81
pounds butter at two years old. An
other heifer traces to the former world
champion butter COW Aaggie Cornucopia
Pauline over "a pounds butter in seven
days. Four others contain blood of the
greatest of all dairy cows, Colantha
4th's Johanna, over 35 pounds in secen
days. We secured two from the noted
herd of William Everson & Sons of
Lake Mills, Wis, both sired by Sir
Hengerveld DeKol Ormsby; his dam S
official record over 81 pounds butter in
seven days, her milk testing 4.16 per
cent and her dam over "a pounds, her
milk testing 5.44 per cent fat. With
the foundation of our herd laid in the
famous Ormsby Canary, Johanna and
DeKol families, we can guarantee to
the public the best that money and
careful selection could buy. The heif-
ers we secured from Mr.. Irwin were
bred to a son of Hengerveld DeKol, out
of Pontiac Darkness, over 26 pounds
butter at four years old. Just now Mr.
Marks is expecting a shipment of y
head from Powell farm of New York
These heifers will be by such bulls as
Paul Cornucopia America 39904 and Ad-
miral Walker Pietertje 5000. With
this addition the Marks herd will be
one of the largest and strongest in the
Northwest"

VETERINARY SCIENCE.

The problem which continually con-
fronts the student who contemplates
entering into the study of veterinary
science is, What kind of an institu-
ton shall l attend? Which one shall
l select?" There are two kinds of
veterinary institutions, viz: The de-
partment of veterinary science of the
State Agricultural Colleges and the pri-
vate veterinary schools. Having had
experience in teaching in both kinds
the past twelve years, I would advise
the student to enter the veterinary de-
partment of an Agricultural College.
The private institution must depend
upon the revenue derived from tuition
only and must maintain it's laborato-
ries as best it can, without outside
help. 1t has not the advantage of the
work conducted in the experiment sta
ton or the many special buildings
with laboratories amply equipped, as
the chemical, botanical and geological
buildings.
The veterinary departments of the
Agricultural Colleges have many spe-
cial laboratories devoted to compare
