and buried in the forearm. where It was
allowed to remain until flesh grew around
it,

age OF American railroads. Their an
nual operating revenues exceed $1,000, 0O0,-
900. or nearly 40 per cent of the total
for all American railroads. They carried
nearly one-half of the freight traffic
Of the United States and over two-fifths
of the passenger traffic. Excluding gen.
eral officers, the annual pay roll of their
employees amounted to $l66,O000O0 and the
annual compensation of the engineers
alone was nearly s3s, 100000, or Al per cent
of the total compensation paid all rail-
road engineers in the country.

If an effective railroad strike had oc-
Cured In the eastern part of the United
States it not only would have been disas-

great losses to the engineers. but would
have meant a loss to tne public vastly
larger than that of both parties to the

the eastern district would have put that
great section of the country in much the
same situation as France was placed
few years ago, when here was a general
railroad strike in that country.

Prof. Bennett is here collecting da-
ia from which he intends to write two
monographs for publication by the

is to be on onions and the other on
cherries.
Prof. Bennett is very enthusiastic
over the possibilities of onions as an
early crop to be planted in young Or
chards. He cites numberless instan-
ces of big and profitable returns
from small acreages in onions on the
Western Slope.
The Sentinel some time ago called
attention to the success of onion
growers near Olathe Prof. Bennett
declares that over so cars were
shipped out last yea and that some
of the eturns were as high as $500
per acre.
Mr.. Bennett is also anxious to get
information about the progress of
the cherry orchards in this valley.

WARREN HAS A BILL TO
HELP OUT WESTERN ROADS
Sentinel Special Service.

Washington, March g.-Senator
Warren Monday will introduce a bill
granting each of the public land
states 100000 acres of land suit
able only for grazing purposes. the
lands to be leased by the states at
annual rental charges not to exceed
10c per acre to citizens or associa-
tions of citizens, in areas not to ex-
coed $40 acres to each citizen or
association. and for period not ex-
ceeding five years.
OF the proceeds l per cent per
acre on the lands leased is to be paid
by the states to the general govern
ment for the use of the reclamation
fund, and the remainder is to be ex-
pended by the states in the construc-
tion and maintenance of public roads
within the states in which the lands
leased are located.
IT enacted, the proposed law
would enable the states to secure an
income for public road purposes from
lands now yielding no income. and
would permit the states to admins
