President Waters on Solution
of Meat Problem.
Public Slaughter Houses in
Cities Would Help.
FARMER HAS CHANGED
No Longer Is He an Individual
Packer.
LabOring Men and Children
Must Eat Meat.

President Henry ]. Waters. of tho
State Agricultural college. delivered an
address before the meeting of the KAN
sas Day club. Though he is a Demo-
crat nothing that he said offended the
feelings of his Republican audience for
he discussed the meat boycott and
didn't talk politics.
His speech follows:
I'VE must continue to be a meat nro-
ducing ana meat eating people. The
price commanded by the live animal
profitable to the farmer AT the same
time the steaks and roasts must retail
at prices that will enable the laboring
man and his family to eat meat.
1T may be authoritatively stated that
the, present high price of meat products
is not chiefly due to an extraordinary
rofIt which the man who raises and
feeds the animal is securing In fact,
at the present price Of feed and farm
labor, a material reduction in the prizes
OF live animals would mean loss to the
stockman and very serious injury to
the live stock industry. 1t is true that
with hogs at s cents and corn at go
cents, there is a good profit. A fair
Profit might be made at 61z cents. Com
S1der1nG. however, the loss from cholera
ETC., the industry would not be general
ly profitable at a materially less figure
than hogs are now commanding. Sheep
are reasonably profitable at prevailing
prices. But the margin of profit on
Cattle even at the present high prices,
is very marrow indeed, ard a reduction
of 70 cents or 81 a hundred would bring
7erious loss t. the thousands of feeders
who now have cattle on feed.
Generally speaking the farmer is
prosperous, but his chief prosperity has
been due to the enhancement in the
value of his land. So long as he does
not want to sell this is a disadvantage
rather than an advantage. Taking the
country over. outside of the enhance
lneRt of the value of land, the farmer
has not made as much money on the
average. as has the dry goods merchant,
the banker, the grocer, the butcher,
and the other business man of equal
intelligence who has piled his vocation
with equal industry. The enhancement
of city property and of commercial in
vestments is fair offset to the in
crease in the value of farm lands
therefore the people of the city have
no right to charge the farmer with
taking undue profits. even in this era of
extraordinarily nigh priced foods.

LIBERAL is GETTING LIBERAL.
VIII Give $4,000 for Extension OF
G.. c., G. & N. Ry

Liberal, Kan. Jan. .31.-Not only is
Seward county preparing to vote $780,
600 in aid bonds to the Garden City,
Gulf & Northern railroad. which cleo
ton the county commissioners will, to-
morrow. call for February 10, but the
city of Liberal has raised a jackpot
consisting of $4,000 for aid of the
road.
The Commercial club has just raised
this amount by popular subscription,
and it is understood further money is
to be forthcoming in the same way.
This makes a new addition to regu-
lar aid in the way of bonds, and helps
the road very materially in its deter
mination TO be to the Oklahoma line
by December 81 of this year.
In addition to the $4,000 raised by
the city and the 100000 from Seward
county, the city will also vote ter
mlnal bonds to the extent of $4,000,
making $105.0O0 from Seward county
alone with which to build 80 miles of
road and install terminals
Substantial help has also been prom
ised the road from Haskell county in
the way of lands and subscriptions
The county commissioners of Fin
ney, Haskell and Seward counties will
meet Wednesday to call the elections
in these counties
The railroad expects to begin bust
ness. If bonds carry February 10, on
March 1 and push to Liberal without
delay.

is expected that work will start with
in a very few days on the construc-
ton of the double track on the Santa
Fe from Daggett to Cottonwood. The
Sharp-Hauser company, which has
the contract, is already moving teams
and outfits to the scene.
1t has not as yet been announced
whether work will be started first on
the portion of the double track on the
Arizona division, from Daggett to Bar
stow, or on the Los Angeles division,
south from the latter point to Cotton
wood. This lies entirely with the con-
tractor but it is possible that the work
will be prosecuted in both directions
from BarstoW.
The operating of double tracks in
both directions from Barstow will
greatly assist in reducing the delay
that unavoidably occurs at that ter
minal with all trains. entering or leav-
ing the yards. The construction of the
double track to Daggett will also ma
terially assist the Salt Lake trains. 1t
being at that point where they are
again diverted to their own line.
There is at present only one piece
of double track on the Los Angeles
nardino and a point north of High
land Junction. 1t is said. however. to
be the intention of the company to
ultimately double track in both direc-
tions from all terminals.
When the actual work of double
tracking the mountain district will be
started is not known. This. according
to the statement of officials them
selves. is to follow the completion of
the first stretch.

TELLS HOW no PACK GOODS.

duce Damage Claims.
In furtherance of a>campaign to Sc
cure better, packing of, articles offered
for shipment, the Pennsylvania rail-
roads is to distribute. through its
freight department thousands of
copies of pamphlet, just issued by
the department of commerce and la
Dor, entitled Packing for Export"
The Pennsylvania has in the last two
years been adopting every possible ex-
pedient for reducing the number of
damage claims made by its shippers,
and it estimates that last year it paid
out $1S5.O0O in claims which arose
from poor and insecure packing. Due
to the efforts made in the last year
to impress upon shippers the ad-
vantage of better packing of freight,
it is thought that the losses sustained
in 1910 on this account will be some
what smaller.
Notice has been given by the Erie
railroad that on April l 1t will file a
new tariff making a reduction of an
average of cents per 100 pounds in
all the class rates from the east and
the middle west. The standard first
class rate from the seaboard to Chi
cago is as cents per 100 pounds, and
the differential rate is So cents The
Erie purposes to make a first class
rate of 50 cents. and to make cor
responding reductions in all of the
class rates. 1t is said that the Lack
