HENS IS HENS"

pigs il pigs" That fact was
determined some time ago by bit
OF fiction. But "hens is hens" is
now determined by bit Of fact.
A carload Of hens was recently
shipped over the Santa Fe from
Newton, Kan. to Los Angeles.
When the car reached it's destina.
ton there was carload Of hens
and three cases Of eggs.
Obviously here was hard shell
to crack. Freight was paid only
upon hens, which are livestock.
Eggs, in the opinion Of the check
ing clerk, were not livestock.
The traffic department Of rail-
road had mind for statistics,
but there was n poser. So the
legal department was called IT..
Was an egg laid an route ex post
facto or priori? The only answer
Of the shipper was that he paid
freight on hens and would not pay
freight on anything the hens might
do.
The most extraordinary things
in the whole incident was that the
legal department ould find nc
way out Of the scramble. Unable
to force collection, they finally
ruled that the railroad company
could not levy freight charges on
a natural increase enrout.
So It remained for the cackle OF
the hen to rout the resourcefu
leigons Of the modern railroad.--

OLD TUSCARORA
IS BEING REVIVED

William A. Parish Jr.. the new
superintendent of the Tuscarora.
Nevada Mines company which has
been recently reorganized, New
York interests securing control
was in Salt Lake yesterday from
Tuscarora New. says the Herald
Republican.
Mr.. Parish did not care to talk
at the present stage Of the pro-
ceedings. but admitted that the
new company is making thorough
sampling of the various mines in
cluded in the big consolidation
which was contaminated about a
year ago, and before the New
York interests got in there.
There are several miles of under
ground workings in the Tuscarora-
Nevada holdings. II takes in
over dozen groups of claims
which hive a reputed total pro-
duction Of $40, 100000. Many
years ago this district. fifty.two
miles north of Elko, and not far
southwest from the budding Gold
Creek district, was one of the
mort famous camps in the West.
The formation up there is a
rhyOlite and andesite, similar to
TonOpah, most of the ores making
in the contacts. The deepest
shaft is 900 feet.
Mr.. Parish thinks from the in
terest manifested this spring on
the part of the State that there
will be boom in northern Nevada
before the summer is half expired.
He says he hears lot Of talk
about Gold Creek and vicinity. By
fall he expects the Tuscarora COM
pany will have things pretty well
rounded out for active operations.

APPLES IN VERMONT
From the Ludlow Tribune.

(From the Ludlow Tribune)
Two speakers at the recent Pomona
meeting at Plymouth union touched upon
the matter of apple culture and its i'm
portance to the Vermont farmer. One
speaker drew from his own experience
and proved that there is money in apple
growing. The farmers present listened
and seemed interested while he argued In
behalf of painstaking care of the orchard
and the development of the right sort or
fruit. for which there Is always good
market; but we wonder how many OF
those who listened went back TO their
farms with a determination to do some
thing along this line. Undoubtedly some
farms are more favorably situated than
others for the purposes of the orchardist'
but no one farmer has mortgage on the
opportunity to branch out into apple cul-
ture and make n financial success or H.
7 The marvel Is that. with the most con-
yincing object lessons AT hand, more
farmers do not incline toward this branch
Of agriculture and get into line for profit
able results. No doubt the apple has come
into greater favor In Vermont or late
years, but there are still many farmers In
the State who do not seem 10 realize that
a fine orchard is n valuable asset and
worthy of thought and care and EFFORT
