agricultural car came in on time this

to talks by Prof. Dodson, Prof. Roy
and Mr.. McClendon. The car is filled
with samples of forage crops for the
raising of hogs, fertilizers, all kinds of
corn, rice and other grains. There
are also many photographs of dairy and
beef cattle, that show conclusively
what can be done along this line of
cattle growing. the lecturers told
the people how to combat the many
diseases and pests that cattle and
hogs are addicted to, and the in
creasing interest the farmers are TAX
ing in these matters is proof of the
fact that they value these exhibits
and that the people in charge of them
are experienced practical farmers
themselves. They realize that much
valuable information can be secured
from the experiments made by these
scientific men.

High Express Rates.

New Orleans.-During the hearing

sion, sitting at New Orleans. Assistant
Attorney General Barrow declared hs
would produees lfnesses who would
testify that they had been advised thai
should they appear before the commits
sion there would be retaliation by the
express companies" c. NJ. Stockton
| representing the Wells Fargo Com
pany, denied the charge. :
A leading witness was r. Sere, rep
| resenting large commission firm
who swore that "the express rates in
Louisiana are irregular and inconsist
ent." The rates on eggs from Trenton
Tenn., to New Orleans for case OF
eggs is Gle. while the rate from Park
Elton, Pine Prairie, Dodson ! other
towns in Louisiana not half as far
from New Orleans is 60c.
The rate on eggs from Lake Charles
to New Orleans, distance of 218
miles, is 33c. There are very few
shipments from that point. The rate
from Rayne, which is only 160 miles
distant, is 36c; there is big move
ment of eggs from that town. The
rates from New Iberia, Lafayette and
various other points nearer than Lake
Charles, but from which big shipments
are made, are lower than from Lake
Charles.
The rate from Springfield, Mo-,
which is more than 700 miles from
New Orleans. is only S3c. At least
100000 cases of eggs are handled an
nually by express companies operating
in Louisiana.
Touching upon the egg trade with
Cuba, Mr.. Sere said: 'The low rate
enjoyed by Texas shippers of eggs en-
ables them to ship eggs from Texas
to New Orleans to Cuba at prices low
er than ours. This movement is not
by express, however, but by freight.
Eggs can be shipped by freight from
Denison, Tex, to New Orleans cheap
er than from New Iberia.

New Orleans Rice Market.


New Orleans.-Very little trading
was done in the market for rough
rice. Choice grades of Honduras
were scarce and as a result trading
was mainly in small lots of Japan
grades. Receipts from the country
were light and only a few small lots
came out of store.
Clean rice developed an easier tone
on both Honduras and Japan grades.
The inquiry during the early session
was for small lots. Exports of clean
rice to Porto Rico amounted to 1855
pockets. Quotations:
Rough-Honduras easier at $3.50
and $500 per barrel; sales reported,
AL sacks at 1921 and $3.50; Japan
easier at s1.80 and $3.50.
Receipts-Rough rice, 2,1O5 sacks;
