Why not? If they have TO pay

word "kickers,' ! say would like

things go wrong.
Moreover he writes. the gentle
men who own these cars most likely
would have to stand, while the
'commoners' would occupy seats"
Most certainly the owners would

seats. Does he suppose a com

Contly to Keep Hens.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
Sir-As an amateur poultryman I
hope you will allow me the space
to express a few views on the high
price of eggs.
My neighbor, a farmer, has 1870
hens and has not had an egg from
them for more than six weeks, and
he is only one of thousands SO situ-
ated. Degeneration of vitality in
the fowls through constant breed
ing from the same old stock is, in
my opinion, the cause for this. But
whatever the cause, the fowls are
daily consuming large quantities of
wheat at about s1.20 per bushei.
corn at 80 cents per bushel, oats at
55 cents and everything else that
goes to make UP their ration at pro-
portionately exorbitant prices.
sold my eggs to our huckster
on Thursday at 36 cents per dozen.
While knew they were retailing in
Newark for so cents per dozen, I,
like others, did not have enough to
justify shipping. And large pro-
portion of Newark's egg supply
comes from such sources.
If there is money being made out
of eggs it is being made by the
large producers, who sell direct to
the city retail houses. and by the
city produce merchants. My few
hens are good layers, but at the
present high price Of chicken feed
there Is nothing for me in raising
eggs to sell at 36 cents per dozen,
and the same holds true in the case
OF the other small producers and the
farmer. Chicken feed must 20 down
in price before eggs go down to stay.
Look for part of the cause of the
nigh price of eggs to the juggling
OF the price of grain by the Chicago
Stock Exchange. MS

first appearance of the day, we are
usually occupied with more inn

4 shopglrI.s Complaint.

To the Editor of the Evening Star;
! am a shop girl, and am COM
PEELED to ride to and from my work
every day. so I wish TO say a few
words regarding employees of the
Public Service on the South Or
ange line.
Now, for instance, if you were III
hurry to get to work in the morn
ing and depended on the trolley
and you just missed the first car
and waited for the next to come, and
when same comes you signal the
motorman to stop and all he does
is give you smile and goes right
on and stops at the next corner to
take on few older people and
leaves you standing at your corner
like a Ounce all because you are
young girl trying to earn a living,
how would you like it? But that is
not all You see the car stopping
at the lower corner taking on pas
sengers and you run on down the.
street in order to catch the car be-
fore 1t starts, and just as you are
about 25 feet from 1t the conductor
gives the motorman the bell to go
ahead and hangs out the rear win
dow and gives you the laugh as the
car passes on. Wouldn't that make
you mad?
Well, such was what has hap
pened to me not only once, but
many times until I changed my
way of going to work. l take the
Orange car, for which I must walk
about five blocks from my home.
whereas the South Orange car is
but one block and half, rather
than be made a fool of by these
smart employees on the South Or
ange avenue line of the Public
Service.
/ am not the only one who is do
ing this same thing, and 1 think the
Public Service would do we'll if
they would put few inspectors on
this line to tame some of these
wise fellows down. 1t would be a
benefit to both the Public Service
and the public.
Trusting / did not take up too
much of your valuable space in
your paper, 1 am yours for better
treatment. Y. l.. w.
