NEW RATES IN
EFFECT, AUG. |
LUCAS SYMMoNDS TWO CENT
BILL PROBABLY WILL NOT
BE CONTESTED BY THE
RAILROADS.

The two cent railroad fare rates
will go into effect in the upper penin-
sula on August /, and unless the roads
affected decide 10 take the matter into
courts copper country people are TO de-
rive the benefit of low fares as have
people below the straits.
when the Symonds-Lucas two cent
fare bill passed the senate, and later
when the bill was signed by the gov
ernor. it was announced that the
Northwestern and other roads would
not lower the fares but instead, would
take the matter into the courts. 1t is
now believed, however that the North
western will not fight the law. but
will lower the fares as required by
the bill.
No Official bulletins have been re-
ceived stating that the rates would be
lowered but the 1000 mile commuta-
ton books which were sold at the rate
of two and one-half cent per mile, will
be called in on the first OF August and
new ones issued.
The northern peninsula companies
have been selling a 1000 and 1000
mile book The former was sold al
two and one-half cents per mile, or 50;
for me book, but the latter was at the
rate of two cents per mile, and was
good in Wisconsin MS well as i'm Mich
iean. The 1000 mile books have not
been called in
The two-cent fare bill will affect al
so the ID. S. S. & a. road and thS
Copper Range as the latter road is IN
competition with the South Shore. NJ
announcements have been made by
these roads so far, however, relative
to the reduction of fares.

SAVES MONEY FOR STATE
NEARLY $1,000 TURNED BACK TO
STATE TREASURER.
Semi Annual Report Shows There
Were 6,6S1 Inspections.

The report of the state dairy and
food commissioner for the first six
months of 1911 shows that the depart
ment was run at cost of $4,000
against an outlay of approximately
$4,000 for the preceding six months
I'm five months there were 6,6S1 inspec-
tons, while the greatest number of in
sPcctions i'm any one year of any previ-
GUS administration totaled but 9,94l.
During the first i've months there was
turned back into the state treasury
$i7J5 in cash, having saved the state
on printing of useless periodicals be-
tween $4,000 and $1,000.
The department is allowed an appro-
priation of $4,000 per year. OF this
amount $27.755 had already been spent
when the present commissioner as
sumed charge, with but half the year
gone. Including this there is a special
instructors fund of $4,000. of which the
department had left but SS41.
License fees amounting to between
$4,000 and $4,000 have been collected

KNITTED NORFOLK JACKETS.

Pleated and belted jackets in the
Norfolk style are all the rage this sea-
son. White linen Norfolks, worn with
patent leather belts and silk nccktios
have displaced from favor the loose
MILDLY blouse which was a fad last
season; and now there are knitted
Norfolks made of white or of colored
worstcd. These pleated and belted
worsted coats are extremely trim and
becoming and they are quite as COM
Portable as the ordinary sweater
White Norfolks are preferred by many
girls but the models of green worsted
are charming. worn with white duck
or linen TERMS costumes. against a
background of green lawn and trees.
OF course, these knitted coats are un-
lined and they may be washed and
dried in the open air as readily as

GOOD STACKING

RULES ARE oBSERV-
ED BY HAIR
vEsTERs.

To stack hay well it is necessary
begin with, the ordinary stack should
not be over fourteen or sixteen feet
wide, depending of course upon the
facilities for building the stack To con-
siderable heights. The wider the stack
Is the higher il will have To be built to
give it the proper form and a good
rain shedding top. With the first few
forksful coming from the load out
line the stack TO the size required. then
carefully I'LL in the middle, being sure
to keep the middle full at all times and
about two feet higher than the rest
of the stack.
Oftentimes a forkful comes upon
the stack twisted or in roll This
should be spread out and hattened
down because this will tend TO make
that part of the stack settle uneven
~ and perhaps form a pocket which
viii become the nucleus of a spoiled
| spot. Never tramp nearer than two
feet from the edge of the stack be-
|
than the rest so far that II will settle
faster and farther thus giving all the
stems and blades an outward and a
downward slant making it imposs bic
for ran to pass toward the middle of
the stack,
Keep the stack smooth on top and
with the middle always high. Should
any damp or green forksful be throuwn
up scatter these out and place on the
outer edge where they will be less risk
Of their doing any damage If any.
Keep nc sides and ends of the stack
plupb. that is. straight up and down
until the height is reached where the
ltop should be started.
Never slant the stack from the
ground up. Never lay out corner
SO Tor that it will slide out or in set
Ting end to pull the top to one side
DO not stand on or tramp too much
the sides Of the stack nearest the
pitcher because this will tend to cause
the top to settle to one side and per-
init the opposite side TO take water
