RAILWAY RECEIPTS AND Elk.
PENSES FOR SEPTEMBER.

The business of the railways for
September while showing con-
Siderable Improvement over that
of September 1911, does not
maintain the rate Of increase set
by the record breaking month of
August. The total net operating
revenue of 80 per cent Of te
steam railways increased 1885,
$40 for September, while the in
crease for August was $l3,o65,-
622. This increase in net operat-
ing revenue was at the rate of $21
per mile of line for the month or
at the rate Of 70 cents per mile
of line per day.
The total operating revenues
per mile of line for the month in
creased 6.5 per cent, the operat-
ing expenses 7.3 per cent and the
net operating revenue 81 per
cent.
The foregoing statistics are
from the summary made by the
Bureau of Railway Economies
from the reports of The railways
to the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. A special committee Of
the railways having headquarters
in Chicago reports that bills now
pending in the Federal Congress
providing for an increase in the
number Of employees of the
railways and for the rapid sub
stitution Of steel for wooden
equipment will, if enacted, place
the railways under an additional
expense of approximately $12,-
100000 per annum for the form.
er, and total expense Of $632,
TAG, 900 for the latter purpose.
Without compulsion, the railways
in the course of three years have
increased their steel equipment
75O per cent and their steel under
frame equipment 256 per cent.

WHY DO MEN ADVERTISE?

The man who conducts his bus
mess on the theory that it doesn {
pay and he can't afford to ad-
vertise, sets up his judgment in
opposition to that Of all the best
business men in the world. Says
an experienced advertising au-
thority: with a few years ex-
perience in conducting a small
business on a few thousands of
capital. he assumes to know more
than thousands whose hourly
transact IONS aggregate more than
his do in a year, and who have
made their millions by pursuing
a course that he says doesn t
vay.'
If advertising doesn't pay,
why is it that. the most success
full merchants of every town,
large Or small, are the heaviest
advertisers If ADVERTISE s i n g
doesn't pay. who does the most
businessi If it does pay why do
business firms in the world spend
millions in that wayi Is it be-
cause they want TO donate those
millions to the newspaper and
magazine publishers, or because
they don't know ass much about
business as the six for dollar
merchant who says money spent
in advertising is thrown away or
donated to the man to whom it
is paid. Such talk is simply RI
diculous, and it requires more
than the average patience to dis
cuss TIE proposition of whether
advertising pays or not, with
that kind of a man. His COM
placent self-conceit in assuming
that he knows more than the
whole world is laughable, and re-
minds us of the man who proved
that the world doesn't revolve
by placing pumkin on stump
and watching it all day. There
is as much argument in the one
as the other,-Ex.

Tt is time that the warning OF
scientists and lovers of nature
against the slaughter of useful
birds was needed by the American
people and attention paid to their
preservation. How many Thought
less men and boys wantonly kill
birds never can be known, but the
figures must run into the hundreds
of thousands and perhaps to the
million mark. Generally speak
ing. every bird that is killed re-.
duces the army Of consumers OF
insect pests, and that means just
30 many more insects are left free
to forage in our agricultural do
mains.-Boston Globe.

The authorities at Lafayett ,
are considerably exercised over
the future care and maintenance
Of an insane leper named Her
bert, who following his escape re-
Gently from the lepers home, start
ed the community by returning
there. He is in addition insane.
This dual affection is responsible
for the present quandary of the
officials, regarding him, the in
sane asylum refusing to accept
him, on account of his being a
leper, while the Lepers Home is
equally positive in refusing him
admittance on account Of his
mental condition. In The mean
time Sheriff Lacoste has arranged
with the police jurors the expense
of a guard to prevent the unfor-
tunate from wandering from his
home in the Fourth Ward, near
Youngsville, Herbert 8 home and

returned and only recently again
succeeded in escaping and return

RUSH THE PIGS TO THE 200.
POUND NOTCH.

Taking eight weeks old pigs OF
good quality and breeding, can we
grow them on peanuts, chufas and
corn up to 90 pounds weight and
then put them on corn three.
fourth and cottonseed meal one
fourth and have them reach a
weight of 125 pounds at four to
five months of age?'
1t will be difficult to bring pigs
up to 125 pounds weight on these
feeds at four months of age. They
might be made to weigh that
much at five months. With some
skimmilk the. weight might be
made at the younger age in some
eases but not probably to this
average.
But why turn off these pigs at
l25 pounds weight They shoold
make very rapid gains from 100
poonds up to 200 pounds and on
such feets very cheap gains. In
fact, it will be easier to make
gain of 100 pounds in three
months on pigs after they have
reached a weight of 100 pounds
than to bring them to a weight
of 100 pounds at four months Of
age. The early gains may be
made little cheaper but count
ing the cost of keeping the SOW
it will not be the most profitable
to sell pigs at weight of 125
pounds. 1t will almost certainly
pay better to keep them until
they reach a weight of IT'S to 22J
pounds if such cheap feeds are
available in sufficient quantities.

THE MERCY OF THE COURT.


The justice of the peace was in
the South and in marked state
Of ignorance, says the Popular
Magazine. He was approached
by a man desiring a divorce, and
he did not know what to do.
Calling a friend to his side he
whispered:
What's the law on this
point?"
"You cant do it, was the re-
ply. "It's out Of your jurisdic-
tion."
The husband, observing the con-
sultation and feeling keenly his
desire to escape from his matri-
monial woe, explained:
m willin' to pay well, got
the money right here in this
sock"
At this the justice assumed his
gravest judicial air. Obviously,
he was deeply panied. Never be-
fore in all his life had he been so
bowed down by grief.
"You knew before you came
here" he said sadly, "that it
wasn't for me to separate husband
and wife, and yet you not only
take up the valuable time of this
court by talking. but you actually
propose to bribe me with money,
Now how much have you got in
that socki"
