ran home and told his wife that he had
seen 1.-The devil on his way to Albany in
o sawmill."
When the Clermont reached Harver-
staw Bay, says one of the passengers, a
man in skiff lay waiting for it. He
appeared to be q miller, and the paddle
wheels attracted his attention. He
asked permission to go aboad and
Fulton ordered line to be thrown to
him. The miller said he did not
know about a mill going upstream and
came to inquire about it," One of the
passengers seeing through the simple
minded visitor, bnt without disabusing
him of his mistake, showed him all the
machinery and contrivances and the de-
vice for throwing the wheels out of gear
when the mill was required to come
about. Presently the visitor said, THAT
will do. Now show me the millstones"
"Oh," said the passenger that is a
secret which the master has never told
us yet; but when we come back from
Albany with load of corn, then if.
you come aboard, you will see the meal
fly"
At one o'clock on Tuesday the boat
arrived ut the place after which Fulton,
In honor of his distinguished colleague
had named the steamboat. Clermont
dock, the landing-pla at Chancellor
Livingston's place, is one hundred and
ten miles from New York, and that
distance had been traversed against the
wind in just twenty-four hours. The
average speed thus far had been about
4.8 miles an hour. Here Fulton rested
from one o'clock Tuesday until nine a,
IN. Wednesday. His feelings of elation
can readily be imagined. His voyage
thus far had been one of triumphant
success. This was the first time the
waters of the Hudson had been churned
by steam power from the briny depths
of New York harbor to the fresh-water
reaches of the upper river. 1t was the
first all-night steamboat trip ever made.
Resuming their journey the next day,
Wednesday, at nine u. m, the Clermont
reached Albany, distant forty miles, at
five p. m. The running time for the
whole one. hundred and fifty miles had
been thirty-two hours, or at the rate of
nearly five miles an hour. The return
trip on Thursday and Friday was made
in thirty hours running time, or an
average of just five miles an hour. The
wind had been against the Clermont
both ways, says Fulton, so that no adj
vantage could be derived from his sails
The whole journey, therefore, had been
performed by the power of the steam
engine. 49,.

Citizen bestowed upon this extraor-
binary achievement the following
thirty seven words Of COMMENT

that the famers of the state raised this
year about 35, 900, 700 bushels of wheat,
$500, 900 bushels of oats and 5000, 600
bushels of barley. This is a good

State Railway Commission Law
Good One.

When the State Railway Commission
law was proposed and endorsed by the
farmers four years ago, the politicians
smiled and said Railway Commissions
were useless. but as 1t made some ex-
ira offices it was not fought as vigor-
ously as it would have been had they
realized what it meant. Many Of our
best citizens we're doubtful as to the
value of this commission, believing
that as other commissions had been
more or less of failure, this would
be likewise. They referred especially
to the Oregon commission, which had
been of so little alue as to become
the laughing stock of the state and
was finally repealed. Washington prob
ably has the best railroad law and
most efficient commission in the
United States. They gathered at a
big expense the most thorough and
complete report of the cost of operat-
ing and expense Of railroad lines ever
published and the commission knows
more about these things than the av-
erage railroad manager.
The railroads at first bitterly fought
any orders the commission issued, but
they finally got around to obey the
law. AS an instance the late order
of the commission reducing the freight
rate on grain from Eastern Washington
to the Sound and Portland, at saving
to the wheat growers of the state for
this year alone Of at least $500, 900.
This is but one of the many results
brought about by the work OF the COM
mission. New stations have been
built and many changes enforced by
the commission until the railroads
themselves look to the commission to
stand between them and the some
times unreasonable demands of the
public.

Must Fight This Proposition.

The executive committee of the
Washington Horticultural Society and
the board of trustees of the National
Apple Show ask that all persons inter-
ested in the fruit growing and ship
ping industry of the state, be repre-
sented and attend the National Apple
Show, which is to be held in Spokane
in the middle of November. On No
vember 16, the matter of Lafean APP
pie Box and Grading Bill, which was
e-lntroduced in congress last winter
will be discussed and acted upon.
The Lafean Bill origi nates with a rep
resentative in congress from the state
Pennsylvania and is radical depart
ure from the present method of pack
ing and grading apples for the public
mai ket. 1t will be especially felt by
the people of the Pacific Northwest.
who have had long established Gus
tom OF using a different size box. This
is no experiment. The boxes have
been found to be exactly fitted to the
fruit growers of the Pacific Northwest.
1t has become SO firmly established as
to be taken by apple buyers through
out the coast without question, and
TO change the form of boxes now would
mean an immense loss to the growers
of the Pacific Northwest and an entire
change of hacking
1t is an unjust, uncalled for and I'M
reasonable bill and should be fought
by every fruit grower on the Pacific
coast. No fruit grower in New York
would be benefited by the proposedbox
and it should be persistently fought.
1t is hard for the fl uit growers of the
United tates to understand why it is
asked. 1t has been killed In congress
several times but always hobs up Sc
renely at each session, SO the fruit
growers who meet in Spokane should
take decided stand in the matter.
This matter was thoroughly thresh-
ed out in our issue of Oct. l by our
horticultural editor Mr.. Walden and
needs no futher comment.

We call attention to our Poultry
department in this issue. in which
will be found an article from Mr..
Tarcred, our poultry editor, on
Room Brooding of Chicks. This is
the most important matter ever pre-
scented before the growers of the
Northwest and is no experimental
method. This means of raising chicks
will save half the loss and save a big
SUN in raising healthy chicks. The
Ranch is the first paper on the North
west to bring this important matter
before it's readers and it will be worth
thousands to breeders.

No better index of the awakening
of the farmers of the state could be
possible than the large attendance
and interest taken in the several
county and local fairs this year, and
especially the attendance OF the farm
ers of the state and middle West at

tendance at these fairs and displays,
shows that the far are alive TO
their own good. The fruit, vegetable
and stock displays have been the best
this year, showing more interest among
the producers.

the Valley fair at Pnyallup this
wear was a remarkable success when
we consider that Washington people
bad been going to fairs all summer.
The best display perhaps was in the
horticultural line The exhibits of
fruit and vegetables were magnificent.
The valley lands of Western Washing

used as gardens or intensified farming.
This arises from the fact that great
