ANNUAL REPORT RAILROAD
Commission Of LOUISIANA
BETWEEN THE COMPANIES THE
RAILROAD coMMIssIoN-REsULTs IN RAPID
oPMENT AND IMPROVED SERVICE.

Baton Rouge, La, Aug. 16.-The
eleventh annual report of the railroad
commission of the state of Louisiana
has the following interesting report
on telephone service.
There is duplicate telephone SER
vice at Monroe and Shreveport, all
other places in Louisiana, where
there are exchanges being served by
one system only.
The very few complaints reaching
the commission during the year con-
cerning telephone companies rates
and service indicates that there has
been much improvement in the char
acter of the telephone service and
that it is generally satisfactory The
telephone has become a necessity
so. The very nature of the public du-
ties of telephone companies make
them national monopolies, for when
one of these public service cor
porations has built its lines into GER
tain territories it is difficult to find
men who are willing to invest their
capital in the construction of another
plant. The risk of such an undertake
ing is too great and the development
of the business too restricted to in
vite duplicate investments, and when
they are made they result necessarily
in damage to both the old and new
plant. AS such structures are perma-
nent, they cannot, in case of failure,
be withdrawn, except at great loss
The nature of the public duty of
telephone company is, therefore, of a
very high character, as it undertakes
to supply exclusively a public want
or necessity. This want or necessity
The Hattiesburg news., 1910-08-20

I must be supplied promptly and the
best apparatus known to science
should be used in furnishing the SER
vice. Competent superintendents and
with such facilities the best of SER
vice should be given to those who ap-
ply for it, upon equal and reasonable
terms. These conditions having been
met, there does not appear to be any
reason for complaint.
The past year has proven these as
sertions to be true. The telephone
companies have rendered high class
of service, vastly improved over the
service of previous years, and out of
the $4,000 telephone subscribers to the
various companies in the state, there
have been less than a dozen COM
plants made to the commission, and
the majority of these have arisen over
disputed bills.
The toll service is largely operated
by the Cumberland Telephone and
Telegraph Company, and it is an i'm
portant factor in the commerce of the
state. The improved facilities provid-
ed by the company has met the
demand of the public for the highest
class service of which the telephone
art is capable.
By constant watchfulness over these
natural monopolistic corporations the
commission has been enabled to make
frequent suggestions as to changes
and improvements which could be
made and the companies have willing
ly followed such suggestions in al
most every case.

Vegetable Fiber a Possible Rival to
Jute.

Unless there are some serious draw
backs to it's cultivation, South Amer
lean fiber plant should prove of inter
est to owners of jute mills and to paper
manufacturers, in the opinion of Vice
Consult General Charles B. Perry, who,
in writing on this subject from Cal
ct1tta, says:
"A South American fiber variously
called 'aramina,' 'guaxima' and 'uaxyma'
is yielded by the Urena 1obata, plant
which, according to an agricultural
ledger just issued by the economic de-
partment of the Indian government, is
likewise widely distributed in India, and
IS practically jungle weed in Assam,
Burma, and Chittagong. Chemical
analyses of the plant show it to be not
very different from jute, though some
what harsher, with a staple from 4 to
feet in length; and these analyses
seem also to indicate that it would be
an excellent fiber for paper making.
There are, without doubt, considerable
areas in the Southern States where this
fiber can be grown.
The Florida agriculturist., 1910-03-01

this year the larger part Of the appro-
priation for the operation of the Garden
was withdrawn by the Department, the
office staff transferred to Washington
and the Garden operated Jointly with
the recently formed Subtropical Labora-
tory Association, Mr. E Simmonds re-
naming in charge. It is expected that
the State will eventually assume control
of the institution and convert it to
substation of the experiment station in
Gainesville.
Of the work accomplished since the
establishment of the Laboratory in Mi
ami, may be mentioned the isolation and
determination of the fungus causing the
withertip disease of the citrus trees and
the working out of a practical remedy
for the control of this disease by Prof.
Rolls, summarized in a bulletin pub
lished by the Department of Agricu1-
ture Publications on the Avocado,
Pineapple, and the cultivation of the
citrus fruits in the Gulf States, were
also prepared by Prof. Rolls, who also
made the diseases of vegetables and
tropical fruits a subject for study. A
trip was made in 1908 by Prof. Rolls to
Jamaica to collect cassava varieties Of
high starch content, and thirty-one va
rieties were introduced, of which twelve
were found valuable. In 1905 he was
sent by the Department to Mexico in
an endeavor to introduce the culture of
the vanilla to Florida and several species
were then and subsequently introduced
to the Garden Extended experiment
with this plant indicates that while
South Florida could no doubt produce
vanilla with protection against the cold
during the winter, it would not be ad-
visable to invest capital in this industry
here in face of the more favorable eli
matte conditions in other parts of the
world
AS a result of several years of breed
ing and selection large fruited variety
of roselle has been originated and bull
letin on the subject prepared by the
writer. Experimental work with bud
ding the avocado has been pursued until
by following the methods worked out at
the Garden budded trees may be OBJ
tanned ready for planting out in the
field one year from planting the seed
A good stock for the recently intro
duced cherimoya, soursop and custard
apple has been found in the pond apple
native of the south of the State. 1t has
also been demonstrated that the cheri-
moya may be grown on the custard and
sugar apple so we'll and successfully in
troduced in the southern portion of the
State, and the details of the grating
and budding of anonaceous trees have
been worked out. The first cherimoyas
to fruit in Florida were ripened last
year on a tree in the Garden. The very
distinct Aavors and other characteristics
possessed by the different species of An
onas promise the production of new
fruits of superior merits through hy-
bridization if the right combinations are
effected, and it may be of interest to
know that successful crosses were made
between several species last year and
that the hybrids produced are vigorous

citrus trees planted in Middle Florida
after 1880, and in the greater amount
of capital invested in the industry there
soon arose demand for better informa-
ton as to the cultivation of the fruit and
more knowledge in regard to the treat
ment of diseases and combating of in
sect enemies injurious to tree and fruit
In response to this demand a pathology
1cal laboratory was established in Eustis,
with DR.. H. J. Weber and Mr. w. T.
Swingle jointly in charge Investiga-
tions principally related to the citrus
fruits were for several years conducted
in the State with this point as headquar-
ters, and much valuable information was
disseminated as a result of the work
through bulletins issued by the Depart
ment of Agriculture and local publica-
tionS.
The freeze in 1895 showed that many
experiments could not safely be con-
Quoted in the latitude of Eusts and the
operations at this point were in conse-
made to relocate the Laboratory farther
south. The present site of the Labora-
tory, about one mile south Of the court
house in Miami on Biscayne Bay, was
decided upon after trip had been made
to South Florida by Dr.. H. J. Weber
and Messrs. VIM. A. Taylor and D. G.
Fairchild of the Bureau of Plant In
dustry, u. S. Department of Agricul-:
ture, with view of finding a suitable
location. A laboratory and superintend-
ent's house were erected in 1898 by Mr..
H. M. Flagler for the use of the depart
nent.
Mr.. Frank Dean was first appointed
in charge of the Garden, but very little
money was expended during the first
years by the Department for improve
ment, and Mr.. Dean resigned in 1900 to
be superseded by Mr.. H. c. Hendrick-

signed February, 1906, to accept the
dictatorship of the Florida State Ex-
pertinent Station in Gainesville, and was
succeeded by Dr. E. A. Bussey, who
made a special study of the rootknot
nematode. DR.. Bussey severed his con-
nection with the Laboratory October,
1908, to accept the professorship of bot
any in the State University of Louisi-
ana. At this juncture the pathological

SALOON FEES NO RETURN

President of Asbury College AS
SertS Liquor Traffic Baneful

"It is not what Roosevelt or any one
else thinks about the liquor question.
1t is what we think about the saloons
in Los Angeles that should engage our
special attention. If we represent the
moral aspects of our great city. we
should stand by its morals and best in
terests"
These were the expressions of A. S.
Watkins, candidate for vice president
on the Prohibition ticket at the last
election, and president of Asbury col
lege of Kentucky, yesterday noon at
the Federation club. His subject was
1.-The Case Against Liquor He said,
in part:
"As for the saloon, 1t is a losing
proposition all around. No matter how
much money 1t furnishes the city treas
ury, there Is a reactive measure that
works a hardship from the source II
comes. When you attempt to shoulder
too much, even on the saloon, it is like
trying to pile up a part of the ocean
to utilize it, Many citizens who do
not drink are compelled to pay high
taxes on the principle that when one
loses another has to pay the loss. Ihe
saloon ruins more than it makes. YOU
as an organization. should step higher
than the financial situation of the
liquor question.
1.-THE church is in great danger of the
communicating influences of saloons.
Every one knows the bad influences OF
the saloons against religious and spirit
ual work. If we get the moral at
mosphere right it is much easier to
move on an elevated plane. The world
is looking in this direction for the at
mosphere that is destined to make
Greater Los Angeles attractive to its
almost unlimited success"
