PfkNSYLVANIA'S SEAPORT
FACILITIES
Federal Government Appropriated
Seven Times As Much as State.
Philadelphia, Sept. Is.

While the City of Philadelphia
| since the creation of the Department
| OF Wharves, Docks and Ferries in
| l9O1, has appropriated more than
| TWO and a half millions of dollars to
the development of the port and in
| improving the channels of the Della
ware and Schuylkill rivers, the State
OF Pennsylvania in twice that length
OF time has contributed only about
| halt that amount, though it is gener-
ally conceded that the State at large
would reap greater advantages from
a highly developed seaport of its
own than Philadelphia itself.
The exact sum of Pennsylvania S
appropriations for river and harbor
improvements and port expansion in
the last ten years is S1,45O,00O, an
average annual expenditure of $145,-
600. A more definite conception Of
how really small this figure is can
be had by a consideration of the to-
tai population of the State.
Latest census returns, Just COM
pleted, give the population of Penn
sylvania as 7,665,111. On this basis
the river, harbor and port tax has
averaged cents per capita per year
for ten years, figure now recog-
nized to have been ridiculously
small
AS compared to this Philadelphia
with a population of $4,000, has
imposed upon itself for port improve
ments in five years a per capita tax
of more than $1.S0, or, relatively,
ninety times as much as has the
State itself.
Pennsylvania's support and de-
velopment of its own port shows even
worse by comparison when it is con-
sidered that Philadelphia's expendi-
lures for that purpose have been in
spite of the fact that the municipal
borrowing capacity is far below that
of any of the other large American
cities.
During the same period that sue
ceeding legislatures in this State
have appropriated a total of only
$l,45O,OOO for the many improve
ments now so badly needed, the
Federal Government has expended
more than $9,000,000 upon the
deepening of the Delaware River
channel and upon other harbor i'm
provements.
In other words, in a ten year per-
iod the country at large has given
to port projects at, or in the ap-
proach to, Philadelphia, about seven
times as much as has the State of
Pennsylvania itself.
In industrial and commercial de-
velopment, agricultural and other
Pennsylvania equals or sur
passes any other tate in the coun-
try. This statement, it would seem,
is sufficient explanation for the fact
that, without exception, every for
eign representative attending the In
ternational Waterways Congress, !
held in Philadelphia a few months
ago, expressed himself as being
shocked that so little attention has
been given to the development of
Pennsylvania port.

EARTH SLIDES AT CULEBRA.
Engineers Lack Effective Method Of
Holding the Earth.

Earth slides in Culebra cut, on the
Panama canal, have amounted to
16,50O,OO0 cubic yards since the exca-
walton of the cut began. These slides
represent not less than 20 per cent of
the total amount of earth and rock
so far removed, and represent at least
half a years work. The engineers
have found no absolutely effective
means to prevent the slides. A proc
ess Of terracing the banks has been
found best
Excavation on the canal during Au-
gust amounted to 2,443,353 cubic
yards, or 190,074 cubic yards less than
eXcavated in July. There was one
inch more of rainfall during August,
which helped to cause the reduction.
Concrete laying during August amount
ed to S9,S79 cubic yards, compared
with S7,4S5 cubic yards in July.

REMEDY FOR HAY FEVER.

Hay fever isn't so bad when you
have the price and the time to spare
for trip to the White Mountains or
other sanitarium where the hotels
are good; but some of us have the
trouble without the means of luxuri-
Gus treatment.
l offer a remedy for hay fever,
cold in the head, catarrh and kindred
annoyances which many years ex-
perience has rendered standard in
my home.
Boric or boric acid costs about 25
cents a pound. Dissolve enough for
a saturated solution in water in a
white glass bottle, say one quart size,
warm a tumblerful and SNUFF 1t up
the nose and throat as often as you
feel relief from it. 1t has no ir-
ritating or other bad effect, is sim
pie, cheap and always effective. Try
1t and you will repeat, says one who
has tried the relief.

SPARE THE SKUNKS.
nd Thus Protect Crops From Seri-
bus Depredations of White Grub.


Residents of this valley are COM
|aining, and with just cause ac-
riding to all reports, of the ex-
INT to which the trappers and
|lnters are eXterminating the
|unks in that section at least. The
|rmers declare that the white
| |ubs are multiplying in large num-
1 RS and are becoming a serious men
e to the crops and to the meadows,
being an easy task in some sections
the valley to gather the white
| ubs by the quart. The grubs are a
|eat enemy to the roots of grass,
is and other crops and their great
L enemy is the skunk, which feeds
/ |on them and when fairly prevalent
|eps the grubs within bounds Hop
|owers appreciate the skunks and
|ll not tolerate their being hunted
d exterminated. They are needed
20 to protect the other crops from
+ grubs and it is hoped that the
bppers and hunters will permit the
lunks to live. A law for their pro-
ftion may become necessary. The
tmer who permits them to be hunt
upon his lands is doing himself
d his neighbors a great injustice.

FORAGE POISONING IN HORSES.
Treatment of the So-called Cerebro-
Spinal Mcningitis.

Washington. The Department of
Agriculture has given out a notice
concerning forage poisoning in horses
|hnd mules. Because of the resemb-
ance of the symptoms of those of
|erebro-spinal meningitis the dis
fase has been called by that name,
hough it is an entirely different dis
|ase from that which occurs in man.
The bureau of animal industry has
|een unable to determine what speci-
|ic poison causes the disease. In
Iome cases death occurs within from
|ve to forty-eight hours, in others in
/ rom five to ten days, and there is
1hilder form from which the animal
Usually recovers. The symptoms in
he most serious cases are violent
|rembling to swallow and partial or
ntire paralysis. The disease has
been the most prevalent in Louisiana,
Nest Virginia, Kansas and Nebraska.
I occurs most frequently in damp
| md sultry weather
An entire change of feeding is rec
Immended. If the animal has been
/ ept in stable it should be fed with
rain or forage from an uncontami-
lated source. If it has been at past
re it should be brought to the barn
-nd fed on wholesome feed. The bur
hu recommends in extreme cases the
3jection of fifteen grains of barium
hloride into the jugular vein or two
rains of eserine under the skin. In
Rstinal disinfectants such as calo-
sel salicylic acid and creolin also
Re used.
In cases of great weakness and
W temperature aromatic spirits of
nmonia, digitalis, alcohol or cam
hor are recommended, and as a sub
quent treatment two grain doses of
SryChnine twice a day or a mixture
two drains of tincture of nux
bmica and a half ounce of Fow-
RS solution given at one dose and
peated three times daily.

FOR DELINQUENT SUBSCRIBERS

states that he borrowed a Winchester
rifle recently and started up the
street to deliver the weapon to its
owner. The delinquent subscribers
got it into their heads that he was
on the warpath, and every one he
met insisted on paying what he owed
him. One man wiped out a debt of
ten years standing. On his return
to his office he found a load of hay,
10 bushels of corn, 10 bushels of po-
tatoes, a load of wood, and a barrel
of turnips that had been brought in.
