EXPRESS REFORM NEEDED.

In the opinion OF The Sun the Inter.
state Commerce Commission is a big
farce when It canes to the regula.
ton OF through rates. Some time
ago We called the attention of the
Florida Railroad Commission to the
fact that the rate on newspaper from
Richmond, Va. to Jacksonville was
20 cents per hundred pounds and the
rate from Jacksonville to Gainesville
rs cents, while the through rate from
Richmond to Gainesville was 50 cents.
The Florida Commission took the mat
ter up with the Interstate Commits
sion and the latter replied that the
through rate was "all right"

Winter pruning for withertip should
be done between the middle of De.

It is important not to delay the work
beyond this date. Do not prune while
the new growth is putting out, for
this is almost sure to result in injury
rather than benefit. Begin the work

Different results of the attack OF

different treatment. Some OF these
effects OF the disease are: % dropping
