R. R. COMMISSION
MEET IN FARGO
Question Of Short Haul Clause
Up for Discussion at
the Gathering

FARGO, y. D.. July S-Tne question
of the short haul law and the matter
of installation Of 'Y's' at points
where ore railroad system crosses an.
other within the state was taken up
today.
For some time the railway commits.
sion and the railroads in the state
have been fighting the question or
whether the railroad should be al.
lowed tot charge what is spoken OF al
long haul rates when there is a pos
sipility OF transporting the freight by
Z shorter route, II proper physical
corrections were made between the
several railway systems at the points
a. which the Line crosses.
Shor. Hau. Rate.
Some time ago a law was enacted
by this state which required the rail-
ways to charge the short haul rate II
by installing" proper connections be-
tween the two railway systems the
distance could be made shorter. The
matter Of installation of "4s at
three points where the short line Of
the 500 crosses the Great Northern
in the northern part Of the state IS
nov under consideration by the COM
mission. Orders have been issued by
the commission which will compel the
RAILWAYS to install "Y's' at Bisbee,
Omcmee and L%ansford, or charge the
rate which would be charged for haul
ing the freight if the VS. were in
stalled at the above mentioned points.
The railways have asked the com.
n 'ssion that they modify the order
which has been issued so that 1t will
apply to the short haul rates and
suggests if this is done that the "Ys'
will be built at the several points
mentioned. 1t IS supposed that this Is
asked for two reasons. When the
commission issues an order it must
be complied with by tn erailway COM
pany against whom it is issued With
in GO days or a fine Of $25 per day
is attached for each day that the Or
der is complied with.
Only STATE With Such Law
North Dakota is the only state
which has what is known as the short
haul rate. BY confirming to the Cr-
der of the commission as regards the
building OF connections at the three
points named where the 500 and the
Great Northern cross, the possibility
of the enforcement Of the short rate
law VIII be eliminated for the time
and it is expected that the railways
| will make a test case Of this law and
carry it to the supreme court. The
inclination OF the railway mcopa1ies
to build the connections between the
systems in the northern part Of the
state is a great encouragement to the
railroad commission for they have
been working on this question for
some time.
Accountant for Elevators
The question of employing a reg
ular expert accountant to audit the
books. of the elevators in the state
will bestaken UP a he meeting along
with the other routine work which
will come up. Several petitions for
leading platforms and stations at var.
ious points in the state will be in.
vestigated before the close of the SEES
sion. The commission will begin Their
session this morning and will be in
session until Thursday evening. :.
Seminary girls will be the first at
traction at the Minot chautauqua.

liz Young Farmers Had Ten
Days Training During The
Chaulauqua
70 That Time Boys Received
as Much obstruction as
During School Term
Another Encanpmenl WILDE
Held This Summer at the
Grand Forks Fair

Valley City, n. D., July Scamp
was broken here today by the liz
! young farmers who have spent ten
days of study and play at the Farm
Boys Encanpment" of the North Ia
kota Better Farming association. EV-
cry boy will return to his farm home
to put into actual practice the Things
which he has learned from the better
farming experts.
While the lectures and demonstra'
tons have entered about the Judging
and care of live stock and it's place
on the farm, other farm problems
have been treated and the aim OF
| Secretary Thomas Cooper OF the Eet'
ter Farming association was to give
each boy at the camp a broad we"
or the problems of the farm and so IN
spire him to continue the work after
the encampment had disbanded.
In ten days the boys received the
| greater portion of the work usually
given in an agricultural school dur
ing a term. The work was made
brief and concise and as intensely
| practicable as possible. Actual dem
onstrations were. given wherever they
could be worked out in the short time
at the disposal of the instructors.
The fee of five dollars which eacn
O. the boys paid when he was enrol!'
ed on the camp list covered all OF MS
expenses for ten days. Military tents
with cots were furnished. Good, SUB
stantial meals were served i'll the
mess tent and the camp fee included
admission to all the programs n
exhibits DON the chautauqua grounds.
Before returning to their homes to-
day each member Of the encampment
was required to present his written
report TO 0. D. Center, who was IN
charge of all tire work. The reports,
many of which were written out quite
at length, -how the value which the
study has been to the boys. The at
tention at all the lectures was very
good and the results were noted III
the written reports OF the work whlcn
were presented.
The last days study included PROB
lens in farm management, the build'
ing and use OF silos and simple les
sons in veterinary remedies. A very
comprehensive lecture on planning the
farm was give by Mr.. Center as the
final word to the young farmers.
The H. boys who were in attend
ance came from various communities
in thirteen counties, all in the south
eastern portion of the state and trIb-
uary to the Valley ely c%hautauqua.
The boys were appoited mainly by the
county superintendent Of schools and
the privilege of attending the en-
campment came as the reward for
special work along agricultural lines.
A large proportion Of the lads pres
ent we're winners in their county corn
cotests or i other farm cotests.
This is the second Farm Boys Eli
campnent which has been held IN
North Dakota and is the first which
has ever been held i'll connection
with a chautauqua. A second EN-.
campment for this year will be held
at the State Fair at Grand Forks, al.
so under the direction and manage
ment of the Better Farming associa-
ton. For this encampnent tow boys
will be selected from each county in
the state.
