RAILWAYS WILL CHANGE
RULE OF FREE BAGGAGE
Sliding Scale and New System of
Fees Under Discussion

"one hundred and fifty pounds Of
baggage free" will cease to be one of
the inscriptions on the pasteboards
that carry passengers, if q change now
being considered becomes effective
in a few weeks. as rumored. At pres
ent practically all railroads carry $50
pounds Of baggage free and assure a
liability in each case of not to ex-
ceed $100.
If the plan being suggested is car
ried out a new sliding scale, making
the carriers liable to the amount of
$500 for $50 pounds Of baggage, on the
payment of a fee in addition to the
cost of the passengers ticket, will
supplant the present system.
More than $500 valuation will not
be accepted by the railroads, persons
wishing to ship baggage valued at
more being compelled to fall back on
the express companies for transporta-
ton.

Spooner Says the U. P. Had No
Power to Make Competitive
Tariff-KelIOgg'S Speech
WILL GO TO SUPREME COURT
Associated Pressj

ST. PAUL, oct. 13.-The Union Pa
cifc hearing, commenced in the United
States circuit court last Wednesday,
was brought to a close this afternoon
when Frank B. kellogg completed his
closing arguments for the government,
in one of the most famous legal battles
ever waged in the United States
courts. Both sides agree that the case
will be taken to the supreme court.
Mr.. Kellogg gave short answer TO the
arguments of d. K. Watson, VINO pre-
ceded him and who asserted that a.
II. FTick, one of the individual de-
PENDANTS, had in no way been party
to a conspiracy alleged in the bill TO
monopolize the transportation facll-
tiles from the east to the Pacific coast.
Mr.. Watson said that Mr.. Frick acted
as an individual and not a representa-
tive of the Union Pacific when the
alleged purchase of 10000 shares Oh
Santa Fe stock was eonsummated.
Mr.. Kellogg read from the record 10
show that Mr.. Frick's name was 1den-
titled in every instance with the other
Union Pacific directors who took part
as individuals in the purchase of the
10000 shares.
Mr.. Kellogg then stated that through
his argument he would deal primarily
with three distinct propositions:
GOVERNMENTS POLICY
1. The suppression of competition
between the natural competitors is
prohibited by the Sherman antitrust
act.
2. Competition between railroads
naturally competitive is the settled
policy of the nation.
g. The ownership by one railroad of
the stock or any part of the stock OF
a competing railroad is in suppression
of competition and therefore is sup
preston of trade and commerce.
Mr.. Kellogg's argument was directed
to prove that the Southern Pacific and
Union Pacific were natural competitors,
and were in fact competitive before the
merger; that if the Union Pacific did
not dominate the Southern Pacific by
virtue of stock ownership the two ROADS
would now be competitive.
Former Senator Spooner and Judges
Sanborn and Hook engaged in a colo
ouy over questions asked during the
senator's argument.
~ maintain" said Mr.. Spooner, that
a railroad so connected with another
that it cannot reach, say, San Fran
cisco, over the rails of connecting
competitor, has no power to make COM
petitive rates and cannot be regarded
in any sense as a competitor.
1.-THE fact that there is no power IN
such a line to make a competitive rate
makes it impossible for line so situ-
ated to compete. 1t was absolutely i'm
possible for the Union Pacific UP to the
time of the purchase of the Huntington
stock to make a through rate on trans
continental business without consent of
the Southern Pacific"

andottes | did this to determine
from which breed l would derive the
most profit. My experiments proved
conclusively that the Rhode Island
Red was far in the lead of all the
others.
First of all I found that my Reds
averaged more eggs per hen a year
than did the other breeds, and this,
too, in face of doing their share of sit
ting.
found also that the Red Hen would
recover from the moult and begin
laying before my Leghorns, Rocks and
WyandOttes would begin to think about
it. This means winter eggs-eggs when
one dozen is worth more than two
dozen are in the summer. This is what
poultry raisers have been striving for
for all time, winter eggs, and in the
Red Hen we have the best winter pro-
duCers.
The chicks are harder than any other
variety l have ever raised and are
ready for the broiler market from a
week to ten days ahead of any other
breed
Their skin is a rich yellow and free
from dark pin feathers. they are al
wasy plump if properly fed, making an
ideal market fowl.
Their heavy feathering makes them
especially adapted to fog and damp
ness of our winter weather.
As mothers, they rival the Rocks;
as layers they equal the Leghorns or
Minorcas, and as a table fowl they are
second to none. Docile as an Asatic,

given an overfeed one day and the
next not enough to satisfy their hun
ger their digestion will soon get out of
order.
A hen lays best if allowed to keep
her same nest; changing nests upsets
her habits and may stop egg produc-
ton.
Scattering the food in a litter is to
make the birds hunt for it; this gives
them exercise and prevents them from
gorging themselves.
The west is fast learning the value
of the bantam, and it is only a ques-
tion of a short time before they will
be as popular in America as in Eng
land.

JANUARY 2, 1910.

in this whole world another breed of
fowls produced by fifty years of out
breeding. The Rhode Island Reds stand
as the only proof of what outbreedin3
will do. We fanciers do not live long
enough to compose a breed deliberate
ly, unless we inbreed, but it was not
so with the original Rhode Island Red
breederS-they knew the red cock was
the most vigorous, and almost un-
consciously they made a breed.
Utility Rhode Island Reds
One of the questions that is most
frequently asked is, "Will the chicks
hatched from eggs from the best pens
produce good layers?" 1t has always
been my experience that the egg yield
from the best pens mated as nearly
as possible to produce birds filling the
requirements of the standards that
they were not only the best layers, but
they produced stock that We're the best
layers. out of 10 of these eggs in a
machine were Matched 13S strong,
healthy chicks. This is the strong as
sertion of w. F. Burleigh, a successful
breeder of the Rhode Island Red. This
experience proves not only that the
birds as a utility breed are uneXcelled,
but that they produce strongly fer
tilted eggs, and as a result strong,
healthy chicks.
Mr. Burleigh calls attention to the
pleasure that one has in handling the
flock They are free from the Wild
ness that is so characteristic of many
breeds, and with very little care in
their younger days they may be
brought up so that at any time one
Los Angeles herald., 1910-01-02

still they are as ambitious as Medi-
terranean, which assures them to be
good foragers.
When it comes to the fancier's
standpoint there is nothing in domestic
fowldom to equal the beauty of the
harmonious blending and glossy red
of the male.
Last, but not least, I have found a
great demand for Reds at an advanced
price. This assertion will readily be
realized to be n fact if you III look
back few weeks and recall the fact

THE RHODE ISLAND REDS
My Reasons for Believing the Reds to
Be the Worlds Best Fowl

The Rhode Island Red, while COM
paratively a new breed, is fast be-
coming the most popular one in Ameri-
ca and is destined to take the lead,
not only from a fancier's point of
view, but also as a general utility
fowl. No other breed embodies so
many good, practical points, with so
few defects. These good points are
so many and so really good that once
the breeder realizes them he loves the
Reds more and more each day, and
it doesn't take very long to find these
extraordinary characteristics.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-01-02

that at the Breeders exhibit there
were more Reds than any other va
riety. Also you will remember the en-
thusasm displ1yd by all who attended
when they strolled down the Red alley
This fact alone is almost sufficient.
So, whether you are breeding poultry
on a large scale for market, or for
eggs or in the back yard of your city
hime for combined pleasure and profit
you can make no mistake in starting
with Rhode Island Reds, the utility
fowl.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-01-02

can walk up to a chicken, pick it up,
make an examination and put it down
with hardly a flutter of the wings.
That, to Mr. Burleigh, Is one of their
greatest points.
Breed them for eggs and you get the
egg basket full; breed them for show
room and you get the egg basket full
in fact, you have but to raise them
regardless of color and the eggs are
bound to follow. Once a person has
raised this breed of fowls no other viii
quite satisfy.
