TO LAFAYETTE.

Superintendent f. f. Shack
ford, of the Southern Pacific,
stated that within the next two
weeks he would have a gang Of
laborers here breaking the
grounds for the new yard just
west of the city limits. The com

ago over 300 acres of land, ami it
IS on this land that the proposed
new ward is going to be built.
Besides, the company is going to
erect a concrete roundhOuse at
cost of 500, GOO, and eventually the
machine shops of the company,
which are now in Algiers, will be
moved here, bringing with them
all the Office force necessary for
the proper handling of the large

improvements will necessitates.
The total estimate of these i'm

Information comes to us that

coming this way at a high rate of
speed. The rails have been laid
as far as Adeline, and two miles
a day is the rate of speed. It
will pass through Third street

it gets to Franklin. A boat
came down on Wednesday for a

THE TIMBER CROP.

cit is painful to see the way
the pine forests are being butch
cred and wasted in Floll la, -
said an educator who recently
made a short trip through that
State. "The lumber men, as a
rule, simply make a clean sweep
wherever they go-leaving no
proper stand Of trees on the land
for futcre growth, and forest
fires, more often than not. are al
lowed to kill the young growth
even where it is allowed to get a
start. The land is also impover-
ished through the destruction Of
humus that the pine straw would
frrnish if allowed to rot instead
of being burned off"
What is here reported of Flor-
ida is true of far too many other
sections Of the South. We can
not too often emphasize the fact
that the timber is a farm crop
just as truly as corn or cotton,
and should be as carefully look
ed after. The Importance of
keeping a good stand is not more
important in one case than the
ether.
And with the growing scarcity
of lumber and the steady rise in
its price, the farmer should have
as little mercy on the man re-
sponsible for firing his woods as
he would have on man RESPONSE.
BILE for firing his corn crib.-The

LETTER FROM WALTER
PARKER.

New Orleans, Nov. 29.-"The
farmer of the South is paying too
high rates for the money needed
to finance and move his crops
declared B. F. Yoakum, chairman
of the board of directors Of the
Frisco System in an interview
here to-day. "Thefarmer is vital
ly interested in the adoption of a
plan of banking and currency re-
form that will enable banks in all
parts of the country to secure at
equal rates and on equal terms the
money necessary for the legiti-
mate business requirements of
their communities.
"Under our present system,
whenever money will bring a
higher rate when loaned in New
York with stocks and bonds as col
lateral than It will in the South
and West on agricultural prod
ucts, it can be depended upon that
the money will 60 East and the
farmers of the South and West
will beforced by exorbitant rates
to sell their crops at any price at
which the market will take them.
In sofar as the National Reserve
Association plan, or any other
plan that may be brought forward
will equalize rates and terms and
divert money to use in agricul-
tural ard commercial channels
rather than tospeculative opera
tions it is a beneficial one.
"Another important feature Of
the proposed change in our bank
ing and currency system is that
it proposes to permit national
banks to establish savings depart
ments and to loan part of these
savings funds on real estate. So
far as this applies to agricultural
lands. if safeguarded from specu-
lation, it will be Of great benefit
by providing cheaper money to
develop our agricultural resour-
ces
'.In addition to aiding the far
mers by providing better credit
system there should be establish
ed under, the agricultural depart
ment a bureau for marketing and
distributing their products which
would aid them in getting better
prices. With this and with the
adoption Of sound and equitable
ffuanciAl. system the country will
have travelled far in the right
direction by insuring better facii-
tiles for handling the great crops
on which its prosperity depend. "

A two mill tax was imposed for

AS a result, there are five concrete
bridges in the county. each hav-

and 25 feet high.
A three dollar per capita tax
was levied for the benefit of all
other roads. An overseer and
force of hands are employed for
general road work over the coun-
ty. Some Of the roads are leased
to contractors. A civil engineer
is employed all of the time. All

HOW TO GET FULL VALUE
FOR YOUR FERTILIZER
MONEY.

IIoIut-HIAluS has come 10 stay,
and means a larger use of high
grade fertilizers, and it would be
the part of wisdom for the deal
ers in fertilizers to give the full
lest opportunity to farmers to buy
the materials. 1t would mean
larger sales for them rather than
any cutting off in demand. 1t Is
a very short-sighted policy that
makes the fertilizer dealers throw
hindrances in the way of farmers
getting the materials for home
mixing. Sometimes, to, they
seem to forget that a real farm
paper is more interested in help
ing the farmers to the best meth
ods than in selling any special
brands of fertilizers. We have
consistently advised the farmers
against the purchase Of low-gradc
fertilizers, and have explained to
them that low price does not mean
cheapness in these articles. We
do not blame the manufacturers
ecr making the 2-8-2 goods. for
.thayx are simply compelled to
the demand for low-priced
Z and are compelled to sell
an article that is one-fourth
worthless filler. 1t would be bet
ter for manufacturers and farm
ers, too, if only the higher grades
wree sold, or that farmers would
farm so that they would not need
to buy complete fertilizer at all.
but would invest as much, or
more, money in more Liberal use
of what they need to buy. The
men to-day who are farming best
are the men who practice a good
rotation Of crops, and instead Of
a little 200 pounds dressing of a
low-grade fertilizer, are using
three times as much of the min
eral elements that their legume
crops especially need. And these
men find that as they increase the
organic matter in their soil it
pays them to use phosphoric acid
and, in some conditions. potash
more literally than they have ever
done.
There is profit to the farmer in
a iudicious use Of commercial fer.
tilizers, and the better a man
farms the more liberal purchaser
he becomes of the fertilizing ma
terials that he finds his soil needs.
And thefarmers are rapidly find
ing out what they need and VIII It
they do not need to buy, and the
manufacturers who are wise Will
soon find that it is to their in
terest to sell farmers what they
want and let them use it in such
proportions as soil and crops de-
mand. When we find in the re-
ports of the stations hundreds OF
brands offered as specials for
this. that or the other crop, and
note that every one of these
"specials" is the same thing, it
is evidently time for the farmer
to do his own mixing and try to
make his specials" fit his crops
and his land.
We believe in the more liberal
use of such fertilizing materials
as the farmer needs. We know
that applications far heavier than
are commonly used will pay bet
ter than the little dribble Of n
couple Of hundreds of pounds OF
q low-grade complete fertilizer. ii
the application is governed by the
real needs of the soil and crops
We want to see the buyers Of the
fertilizine materials make some
money as well as the sellers

A RUBBER STOCKING AND

New York, Sept. 25.-A rubber stocking and a petticoat with 25 poek- cts in it are the means by which Ru dclph Newman a Chicago jeweler, and his wife are alleged to have tried to smuggle diamonds and other precious stones and jewelry into this country. The couple arrived on the steamship Nieuw Amsterdam of the Holland American line, accompanied by two small children. When arraigned be- fore United States Commissioner Russ, Newman furnished $2,9e0 bail. Mrs. Newman was paroled on her own cog nizance on account of her two chill dren, who needed her care.

Vague Reply to Queries About Steel
 Trust Prosecution.

New York, Sept. 25.-Attorney Gen eral Wickersham made a statement tonigh in response to many inquiries regarding the possible prosecution of the United States Steel corpora ton, in which he says:
 Ut has been the consistent policy of the department not to state in ad- vance of actual proceedings that ac- tion against any particular party was in contemplation. There are many asons why this is the proper posi- tion to maintain. In the first place, until investigation is complete, it is not known whether or not a, case of violation of law exists; and, in the second place, the character of the proceedings cannot be determined un- til then, and if the facts shall require criminal proceedings to be resorted to, ordinary prudence would demand that publicity be not given to that fact un- til indictments are found.
 "The purpose and duty Of the de- partment of justice with respect to the enforcement of the Sherman law against large combination, which are formed or exist in undue restraint of interstate commerce, or which are at tempting monopoly has been declared a number of times by the president and the attorney general.
 Tt cannot be too positively stated that the department is not inaugural ing a campaign against the business interests of the country or an 1nd1s- crirainate attack on all large, pros perous concerns. On the contrary, the care and caution with which the law officers of the government are pro case should be guaranty to the coun- try that the department is proposing to enforce the law with care not to unnecessarily injure any interest.
