Hogs Getting JERSEY Nrilk.

Northern New Jersey farmers fed
their milk to the hogs rather than sell
it to the large milk dealers at the pre-
vailing price, which was three-quar-
ters of cent less than it costs to pro-
duct it. The Exchange price was two
and half cents per quart and some
of the creameries in Warren County
were paying only two cents. At such
rates most of the outlying farmers
find it does not pay them to haul their
milk to the railroad stations, where
the large milk concerns have their
central depots.

SAVING tha oil.

"In Cairo" said journalist, "I
heard a queer yarn about the fella-
hin. The fellahin are the native ru-
ralists. They are very poor. Well,
when the British built the Egyptian
state railway the officials were as
founded at the enormous quantities Of
train oil that disappeared. They knew
that all this oil couldn't be used for
lubrlcatiug purposes, SO they made an
Investigation and found that it had
become the staple food of the poor
fellahin. The railroad detectives re-
ported that the fellahin all over
Egypt were using the Egyptian state
railways train oil as their chief sup
port. They buttered their bread with
train oil. They fried their fish in train
oil. They made kind of suet pudding
with train oil as base. They drank
train oil heated as a flesh producer or
builder up. So the railway officials
mixed castor oil with the stuff, and
the fellahin after a years torturing
and vain effort to acclimate their sys-
TENS to the mixture decided to give
train oil up.'

The Giant Bible.

There is in the Royal library at
Stockholm among other curiosities
manuscript work known as the giant
Bible on account of its extraordinary
dimensions. 1t measures 90 centime-
ters in length and is 30 centimeters
in breadth--that is, about 35 by 10
inches. 1t requires three men to lift
it. There are 300 pages, but seven
have been lost. The parchment OF
which the book is composed required
the-skins of 160 asses. There are two
columns on each page, and the book
contains the Old and New Testaments,
with extracts from Josephus. The
initial letters are Illuminated. The
binding is of oak, four and one-half
centimeters In thickness. The book
narrowly escaped destruction in the
fire in the royal palace Of Stockholm
in 1857. 1t was saved, but somewhat
damaged, by being thrown out of a
window.-London Globe.

The fanmaking industry in China
was started centuries ago in the VII

Of the families being occupied in the
manufacture. Only the open fan is
manufactured In this district.
For the frame the split bamboo Is
repeatedly rived until each piece is
sufficiently slender and flexible. There
threadlike pieces of bamboo are ar
ranged In row, attached to each 9TH
er by a thread passed crosswise
through the middle. This thread is
fastened to a semicircular strip of
bamboo giving the fan its shape. The
ribs are then slightly heated and bent
at the ends The fan has now the
peculiar and characteristic shell-like
shape at the top. Very fiimsy silk
gauze Is then pasted on the face and a
kind Of tissue-like paper on the back.
After the handle is attached the bor-
der of the fan is black vanished and
the gauze is coated with a chalk and

of bamboo, various kinds of hard
wood, bone and ivory. The hand paint

Sir Edwin Landseer's Experience With
a London Fancier.
Sir Edwin Landseer, the animal
painter, one time was about to put the
finishing touches to the portrait of a
dog belonging to a nobleman and was
expecting a visit from his model when
the owner arrived In a state of great
perturbation without the dog. The an
imal had been stolen. After talking
over the loss with Sir Edwin the own
er decided to leave the matter In the
painters hands, together with a ten
pound note as a reward for the recov-
cry Of the dog.
Sir Edwins acquaintance with the
dog fanciers was large, and he sum-
moned to his aid one Jem Smith, who
he thought might put him on the right
track. He showed the man the picture
and the banknote and promised that
II the dog was restored no questions
should be asked. Six weeks later
Smith arrived at the studio leading the
missing dog by a piece Of string.
"Here is your f10," said the artist, "and

WILL APPEAL
RATE WAR TO
WASHINGTON
spee.al to sAs RvRNINo NEWS.

Trenton, June 22:-Decisive ac-
tion in the fight on the increase in
passenger Communication fares by the
railroads of this state was taken to-
day when Attorney General Edmund
Wilson announced that he would go
to Washington tomorrow and appear
before the Interstate Commerce
Commission in an effort to get the
increase suspended, pending fur
ther action.
The state railroad commission
gave out resolutions adopted by 1t
directing the attorney general to file
petitions In it's name with the Inter
state Commerce Commission asking
the suspension of the proposed high
er rates and that the commission
initiate an investigation of the move
to Increase the fares.
The attorney general will file the
petitions as requested and then will
argue for the suspension of the rates.
The resolutions of the State Rail-
road Commission recite that many
complaints have been received, that
it has ordered and is now engaged in
an investigation, that the complaints
relating to the interstate commerce
have been referred to the Interstate
Commerce Commission and that an
investigation by. the national COM
mission Is essential.
Attorney General Wilson gave out
a long statement covering the whole
situation. 1t showed that the most
of the travel to be affected in this
state will be interstate journeys
that the State Railroad Commission
has already instituted an investiga
ton, but that it has not the power
to reach interstate Traffic, nor woulC
the new public utilities law Civ,
that power even though it be amend
ed, that the Interstate Commerc,
Commission, under the new act re
Gently adopted, has power to heal
complaints and on Its own initiativ,
or upon complaints suspend tn,
operation of any new schedule fol
not more than 100 days. Continuin,
he said: II shall, of course, use m,
utmost endeavor to present all the
facts and secure as early determin
alton as is possible-under the prac
tice and procedure established IL
the jurisdiction where the complain
is lodged.
This statement is made after
conference with the governor He
assured me of his cooperation in my
plans and also of his entire willing
ness to pay from the emergency fund
whatever expenses may be involved
in the employment of experts and
the meeting of other necessary
charges. This is upon the theory
that the state, rather than individu
ais and municipalities, should beai
the burden of all necessary litiga-
| ton.

was to have taken place In st. Mary S

given for the postponement is that the

bride are not satisfied with the expla-
nation and fear the opposition to the
match by the mother of the Prince is
