Reason for Delay.

A prominent member of the association
explained the delay in action of the ex-
ecutive committee by saying it wanted
to go thoroughly into the question 1t
was learned, he said, that the drayage
and transfer companies had entered into
an agreement with the railroad companies
to deliver fast freight packages to re-
lieve the congestion in the railroad ware
houses. This was a purely gratuitous
service by the railroad companies. Be
fore that, he said, the merchants were
obliged to go to the freight warehouses
to get their freight. They were not a
party to the agreement with the drayage
companies and had no rights enforceable
in law. But, he added, it now seemed
that the merchants had a right to com
plain, and the association was going to
help them in whatever way may be most
effective

Governed By Distance

The George w. Knox Express Com
pany. in an Official statement regarding
the controversy. says, in part:
The Pennsylvania railroad, the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad and the Norfolk
and Washington steamboat lines have
identical boundaries F7orida avenue). for
which they pay nominal sum to drayage
companies for their services. This deliv-
cry costs the patrons nothing to side
walk. Were the free delivery not In on
Grafton the amount OF freight charges
would be the same, and drayage wouId
have to be added or the merchant haul
his own freight These charges are AL
ways governed by distance from freight
stations.
I've find that many deliveries now
made free within Florida avenue are
made with considerable loss TO the draw
age companies. On freights which are
not now included in the free delivery
all drayage companies make a graduated
scale OF charges according to distance
One might as well expect, in buying pas-
senser transportation, to pay no more to
New York or Boston than to Baltimore
We hope the committee of the associa-
ton will carefully consider all these
points before rushing to a conclusion

Calls Demands Unreasonable.

Francis de S. Ryan. chief clerk of the
Blue Line Transfer Company, speaking
to a Star reporter last evening. said
The demands of the Mount -leasant
merchants for the most part are out of
reason, and If persisted in may eventu-

The Blue Line Transfer Company is

Washington. believe the merchants
would find prompt willingness on the
part OF the companies to help in any
reasonable request that will boom Great

be fair and just to the drayage COM

the bin year after year and does not
materially deteriorate in value.
The average dairy COW will eat about
forty pounds per day. Some do not
care for so much; others will eat more.
One Of the record breaking cows in
the Iowa contest was fed as high as
100 pounds Of silage for some days
while she was upon test. This is an
exceptional case, however, and can
hardly be taken as criterion.
Silage should be fed just after milk
ing. Do not give more than the cows
will eat up clean, because If any is left
about the feeding alleys or the man
gers it permeates the air with an acid
Odor that is readily taken up by the
milk. Much of the alleged complaint
Of silage favoring the milk comes
from carelessness Of this kind rather
than from the feed which the COW
eats. If silage is fed before or during
the milking hour the milk is apt to be
tainted.

Mental Changes Of the Fiery corsican
Shown by His chirography.
Interesting and exhaustive studies
have been made in France of Ma
poleon's chirography. When a young
man Napoleon did not have bad
hand, although, like some other great
men, he could never learn to spell.
When he was an artillery officer his
writing was simple and legible. as his
life was simple and direct But when
the Corsican Captain Bonaparte dis
tinguished himself at the siege of Tou-
Ion and became the French General
Bonaparte his writing took on what
has been called "a furious illegibility."
Curiously enough. from that time
there seems to have been a gradual
degeneration until, profoundly discour-
aged and utterly Inundated, he
scratched an undecipherable. mis-
spelled scrawl Of submission to the
prince regent on July IA. 1915.
It is said that this change from
simple to confused writing began at
certain date-namely, with report,
skillfully garbled, of the part he took
in what Carlyle called the "whiff of
grapeshot that spoke from the steps of
st. Roch on the 18th vendemaire"
(Oct. 5. 1861.

REASONS FOR THE sILo.
Good Ensilase Is Necessity on Every
Dairy Farm.

Good Ensilase Is Necessity on Every
Dairy Farm.
The silo makes it possible for the
farmer to do for his stock what the
housewife does for her family. We
take the crop Of corn when it is at its
prime, gather it and store it In the
silo for feed during the winter, says
Kimball's Dairy Farmer. OF course
other crops may be used, but corn is
always preferable. Anything that has
hollow straw does not make such
good silage because it does not pack
so well, and it is difficult to exclude
all Of the air, and air Is what spOils
silage. You will notice this If you
find a small hole or crack in the silo.
All about this the feed will be decayed
until the decayed matter seals over
the mass of the silage, preventing the
air from working further injury. This
explains why any substance having a
hollow straw is not easily preserved.
In filing the silo remember that it
is of extreme Importance to pack the
feed very carefully over the entire
surface. It is sometimes considered
best to keep the middle little higher
than the outer edges, but in no in
stance should one neglect this part, for
the walls of the silo have a tendency
to retard settling, and unless the silage
is packed so as to exclude all of the
air it will not keep satisfactorily.
Silage is good from the day it is put
into the silo until the last particle has

For the Housewife.

Immediately after washing the dish
es and pans the housewives hands
should be carefully washed in clean
warm water with the toilet soap, US
ing a nailbrush at the same time.
There will be a tremendous saving to
the fingers if the pans are washed by
putting strong soap powder into
them as soon as removed from the
stove, adding a little hot water and
then replacing them on the stove for
a few minutes.
When the water comes to boil a
small stiff brush may be washed
around in the tins. They are rinsed
in clear water and are scrupulOusly
clean without the fingers having come
into contact with the grease.
When the fingers have been washed
and wiped the nails and backs of the
hands are to be thoroughly rubbed
with vaseline or cold cream and gloves
drawn on. They should be worn all
the time that sweeping and busting
are being done. On finishing the house
work the gloves are removed and the
skin will be found soft and smooth.
If any cream adheres it may be
washed off, wiping with dry towel.
This treatment will keep the skin
soft. no matter what work is done.

Health For the Hair.

To keep the hair healthy as well as
clean it should be massaged regular
~ for a few minutes every night and
If possible every morning as well.
Pass the tips Of the fingers lightly but
firmly all over the scalp with a rotary
movement. This treatment, combined
with plenty of brushing in the open
air, will do more toward making the
scalp healthy and producing a thick,
vigorous growth Of hair than any 9th
er known method. It will also prevent
the hair from falling out.
With some present modes Of couture
the woman who has not much hair Of
her own has to supplement with false
hair, and, though this is unpleasant, it
cannot well be avoided. But wear as
little Of it as you can do with and
have it cleaned regularly.

A Beautiful Arm.

A Beautiful Arm.
In developing the curves which
should show on the fore arm ten
minute not too violent-dumbbell ex-
ercise daily is an excellent thing. The
dumbbells should weigh one pound.
Clinching the hands with arm ex-
tended and lifting the hand up and
down by bending the wrist will work
wonders in short time. If the skin
on the upper arm is rough and red
an occasional use may be made of
pumice stone dipped in lemon juice d.
luted with water. The arms should
not be exposed to the air unless rub
bed with cold cream and covered with
powdered oatmeal or some good dust
ing powder.
For pointed elbows soaking in hot
water for ten minutes and then mas
saying with cream which has basis
of olive oil is good thing. For fat
tening the arms in general battle them
alternately in hot and cold water,
finishing with cold. In drying the
flesh it is mistake to rub too hard,
but If the drying process is not thor
ough the skin will become coarse. It
is seldom that arms are too fat. For
such cases there are several massage
rollers which if applied will cause the
flesh to melt away like dew before
the morning sun. If the wrist is prop
erly exercised it will keep slender, and
then it would be difficult to imagine q
too fat arm. The fingers should all
be exercised separately by making
each of them meet the thumb tip to
tip, forming a round, then opening
and closing twenty times in success
sion. This will be found to add great
" to the expression Of the hands,
which forms most subtle attraction.

FATTENlNG CATTLE.

The amount of grain that
should be given to cattle that
are being finished on the grass
should be gauged by the pro-
spective time for selling and by
the condition Of the grass. When
the animals are to be sold early,
as in June or July, more grain
or meal should be fed than If
marketed later, as in August
or September. When the grass
is really at it's best, which usual
ly is in the advanced weeks Of
June, grain will not add much
to the gains, but it may and
doubtless does lead to the con-
sumption of less pasture.
