The transportation of cattle from
ranches in the west, to eastern mar
kets is a complicated process governed
by rules of the interstate commerce
commission, which rules over cattle
hogs and live stock from the time
hey are loaded into the cars until the
buyer has signed a receipt for them at
he destination.
The largest live stock shipper in
his part of the state Is the firm of
Gaar and Shurley, owners of the Glen
Miller stock yards, east of the city
From the yards there, three days in
the week, cattle and live stock are
shipped in quantities of from one to
four carloads to the markets at Pitts,
burg and New Jersey.
When Gaar and Shurley desire to
make a shipment, they ascertain the
number of hogs, sheep, cattle or any
other live stock they have to sell in
The east. They then telephone to the
Pennsylvania freight office, telling
hem the number of cars necessary
The cars are backed into a siding near
The cOmpany's yards.
Description Necessary.
After the cattle and hogs, which
usually constitute the largest parts OF
most shipments, have been separated
into pens and counted and weighed. a
description is telephOned to the
freight station while they are being
loaded into the cars.
Waybills are made out, giving the
number, weight and kind as we'll as
the value. with shipping instructions
The cattle are generally waybilled tC
Jersey City, although usually only a
few of the cattle from here reach
there, most. of them being sold by
Gaar and Shurley's dealers in Pitts
burg.
Much time is consumed in loading
the cattle into the cars, steers being
especially obstinate. They are usu
ally placed thirty-five or forty togeth
err to make the 300-mile trip to Pitts
burg before they are released from
the moving pens. Hogs and sheep are
more easily loaded and more Of them
go in a car, there being double-dech
cars for this live stock when the ship
ments are large.
Often there is a man to accompany
he shipment, the rules of the inter
tate commerce commission insuring

BEST SEED NEEDED
Cobb Brings Home to Farm
ers' Need of Care.

Need of care in the selection OF seed
corn has been brought home TO the
farmers of Wayne County in the series
OF corn meetings conducted by County
Agent Cobb.
No matter how perfect the prepare
ton OF the soil. Cobb showed that
without good seed a good crop could
not be expected. The series of tests
during the week have shown that most
of the corn growers are only getting a
yield of about eighty-four per cent,
when they should average ninety-five
10 ninety-eight per cent
These figures were obtained by
sending pupils through the field to
count the number OF empty hills and
the number OF stalks without ears. In
most cases this failure OF the crop &c
reach a high standard was traced di
rectly TO the carelessness in the Sc
lection of the seed. In some fields the
ears were small and not we'll filled foI
the same reason.
Cobb believes the genuine interest
and enthusiasm shown by the chill
dren of the county will have its eff
feet on the crop next year.

Just recently the city attorney has
shown where the city has overpaid
81, 400 for fire hydrants. This feature
was shown up two years ago by the
Municipal Research League of the city
and received, in return, the charge of
being ''muckrakers," with nothing to
10 than to cast stigmas on the char
acter and probity of public officials.
If Mayor Zimmerman had shown
any disposition or characteristic of
business capacity, he would have had
each hydrant checked up, requiring
hat each be accounted for, a balance
irawn, showing whether such an i'm
position had been worked on the city,
and if so, such restitution demanded
as TO fully reimburse the city for such
over-chargeS.
Not the Real Over-Charees.
The city attorney puts the over
charge at $1,400. That amount does
not begin to cover the over-charges.
To demonstrate that fact. it is just
necessary to refer to the ordinance, or
franchise under which the hydrant
-ental was authorized, which reads:
In consideration of the benefits &C
'cruing to the city of Richmond and its
inhabitants from the operation of wat
ct works, and for the protection of the
city against fire, the city of Richmond
agrees and binds herself to rent of
said Richmond City Water Works two
hundred and twenty-five (225) fire n.y.
irants and if the city or
ders the said water works company to
SAteHu their pipe lines, there SudiI bS
aonafde applications by residents or
property owners on the line of such
proposed extension for water for their
own consumption, to such an amount,
that the annual income therefrom at
the rates fixed therefor in this ordi-
nance, shall equal at least the sum of
;orty-nine (S4900) dollars per annum

hundred (500l feet so extended, and
pay said water works company an an
nual rental OF forty-nine (s4e,00) dol
;ars for each hydrant SET on said ex-
tension"
While the contract does not say that
he five hundred feet shall be con-
tinuous extension it was so meant.
but instead, the charge of $4,000 for
extensions has been made, although
such extensions are not continuous.

who later was ambassador to the court
of st. James. After three days journey
both arrived at Louisville the same
day, then arranged a truce and decid-
ed to continue their trip to Cincin-
natl together.
In the last article Mr. Surface pre-
pared for this paper he illustrated the
horrors of war by this statement:
Shows Horrors of War.
"My last experience as an army cor
respondent was in the Army of the
Potomac. One incident witnessed
there impressed me as the very irony
of war. 1t was in the evening at a
field hospital just after one of those
bloody battles of the wilderness. In
front of the hospital tent was a large
pile of shattered and freshly ampu-
tated legs and arms, promiscuously
thrown together like stack of stove
wood. Around it had gathered group
of struggling soldiers, who were de-
liberately hunting for rings on the
lifeless fingers. 1t was a grewsome
sight and one that we'll illustrated the
temporary qualification of the senses
that may be produced by long fami-
liarity with the horrors of war

and might be made in three different
localities.
Surprising again that the annual in
come from the patrons on that extern
sion only eQualed $4,000, the city then
is obligated to pay $4,000 additional,
giving to the Richmond City Water
Works a revenue of $4,000 for $4,000
worth of service.
Can it be wondered at that the Rich
mOnd City Water Works has made, in
net profits, during the last nine years.
S425,0 900? and is it to be wondered at
again, that their best" efforts are be-
ing used to restore the administration
that has been so lenient toward them
If a clearer demonstration is needed
of the inadeQuacy of the present reg
ime to properly care for the people
and taxpayers interest of the city, per
haps we will find it in contracts for
public improvements, which opens up
another possible avenue for leakage
through partisan obligations, which
appears tomorrow.

HUERTA TO RETRACT.
Expected That Mexican Will Drop
His Defiance.

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 15.-That Gen
eral Huerta will back down in his at
titude of defiance toward the United
States was assured today when Sen
nor MOheno, minister OF foreign rela-
lions. issued a statement saying that:
'The press interpreted enormously
some of the statements made yester-
day regarding the note from acting
Ambassador O'Shaunessey and gave
undue Importance to the message
from the United States"
He added that the government had
received from the American state de
partment two messages which would
be answered by the government, and
which will in no way modify the rela'
tons with the United States.
On Tuesday Moheno denounced the
American note as Contemporaries"
Thirty of the senators charged with
sedition have been released, but an
attempt will be made to prove that
the other eighty-three have conspired
to overthrow Huerta.
Huerta is said to have secured a
confession from one of the released
deputies. Friends of the men declare
that if any confession was secured ii
was obtained by threats of death.
For the purpose of protesting
against the dissolution of the Mexican
congress and the dictatorship assumed
by Huerta, the Spanish minister today
called meeting of all foreign repre-
sentatives in Mexico City.

Pittsb burg, the cattle being Watered
there The watering methods are not
what they are supposed to be, by the
lninitiated, but consist in a heavy
stream of water thrown against a
heavy string of cars. small troughs
along the inside catching part of the
water and the rest flooding the floor
of the car, making it slippery for the
cattle. Food for seventy-twO hours is
placed in the car before the trip is
started in order that it will not be nee
esSary to enter during the trip.
The interstate commerce commits
sion rules that live stock must not be
kept in cars more than seventy-tWO
hours a. time. AS result, the fam
Gus Union Stock Yards in Pittsburs
have been provided for one of the I'M
loading places, making Pittsburg one
of the great live stock centerS. The
stock yards are located on an island
which is famous all over the country
When the cars of live stock con
signed by Gaar and Shurley reach
Pittsburg, they are switched into the
