PURE WATER FOR THE BOILER
Western Railroad in the Future Will
Safeguard the "Health" Of its
Locomotives.

A western railroad has an Official
water doctor" on its list OF officials.
whose duty it Is to see that the loco
motives Of that road are supplied with
pure drinking" water. suitable to the
nature Of the interior OF the engines.
Locomotives have persistent attacks
Of dyspepsia" which cost the railroad
considerable money.
1t seems that. all waters have more
or less OF two kinds of mineral salts
incrusting salts and alkali salts. These
salts clog up the boiler very quickly
and make it necessary to have the
boiler blown off, frequently, and now
and then taken ont Of service and
washed. Both the blowing out and the
lay-offs mean loss Of money.
BY the liberal use OF soda ash,
through certain chemical processes,
the salts can practically be eliminated
from the water. AS the waters vary
at different points. the treatment must
also vary, but this railroad intends to
have the water at every point cured
so thatit will bessuited exactly to To-
connective consumption.
The cost of the treatment will be
about seventeen dollars an engine
each year, but 1t is estimated that the
saving on each engine on account OF
the "cured" water will amount to more
than $500 a. year.

skilled labor.
'"The tariff on wool has permitted
the sheepman to pay a high wage and
he has paid it. But the tariff board
shows that in South America the aver
age wage paid to labor per month is
S26.77, while in England it is but
1913 and in South Africa it is but
81 per month. Therefore, in the alb
sence of a tariff it is going to be i'm
possible for the woolgrower to pay
this high wage and successfully com
pete with his foreign rival.
"This labor question is one of vital
Importance and it is best illustrated
by working it out on the basis of a
sheep. In the United States the wool
grower pays to labor 50 cents for each
sheep, in South America % cents per
sheep, and in Australia Z cents per
sheep. SO that no matter what charge
may be justly made against the large
trusts and corporations in their treat
ment of labor, the woolgrowee has
done his full share toward labor and
given it its full share of the tariff. -

HIGH WAGES PAID BY sHEEPMEN

5. w. Mcclure, secretary of the Ma
tional Woolgrowers' association, has
come forward with the following de-
fcnse of the ~sheepman as an employer
of high-prieed labor:
"Somehow the impression is abroad
that the sheep industry of the United
States is controlled by a few men.
Nothing could be further from the
truth, for the census of 1910 shove |
that we had in the United States CO.,
600 individual sheep owners. Prob
ably no industry is as widely distrib-
ted as the sheep industry, for it OBJ
tains not only in every state but in
nearly every county in the United
States.
"The principal charge made against
the protective tariff is that the indus
tries benefited by it do not pass a
share of the tariff on to their labor.
This may be true in certain eases, but
it is not true so far as the sheep in
dustry in concerned. The flockmaster
is paying his labor the highest price
given to agricultural labor anywhere
in the world. The tariff boards re-
port made this matter clear. This re-
port shows that in the northwestern
states sheep labor receives an aver
age of 500 per month and the average
for the entire United States is slight
ly over $3.50 per month. Neither
the farmer, the cattleman or any 9th
err pays as high a wage as this for I'M

NEVADA'S DIVORCE LAW

The st. Louis Globe Democrat voices
the general sentiments of the Eastern
press on the change in Nevada's divorce
law as follows:
without a city of refuge; Babylon
has fallen! The Nevada senate on
Tuesday, following the earlier action of
the house, voted to make one yeats
residence in that state q prerequisite to
getting q divorce there, and the gov
ernor has announced his intention to
sign the bill. Reno, that city of mag
nificeut distances and alluring enchant-
ments for all of the mismated and in
compatible souls of earth, feels now
that it's career is ended. That town
alone made al organized opposition to
the passage of the bill. A large body
of its citizens, claiming that to break
up the divorce colony in Reno would
be to ruin the town, have lobbied in
both branches of the legislature and
have i%mportuned the governor for q
veto. Last week they threatened that
If the women, who IRE responsible for
the measure, should succeed in getting
