ascertaining a correct basis for fixing
a just, fair, and adequate compensa
ton for the service rendered"
"On February II the railroads COM
mittee was advised by the Post Office
Department that it had made a recon-
msndation to Congress that on &C
count of the increased weight of mails
due to the parcel post, the postmaster
general should be authorized to add
to the compensation of the railroads
not more than one-half of one per cent.
This recommendation would have
added only $254,O00 to the mail pay of
all the railroads in the United States.
Congress too no action on the rec
ommendation of the Joint Compression
al Committee now investigating the
whole subject.
In Great Britain the railways receive
so per cent of the revenues from the
parcel post. Before the establishment
of the parcel post the railroads in this
country received for transporting the
malls at least one-fifth of the post Of
fee revenue. Assuming that their serv.
ice is no greater in handling the par
Gel post than with other mail, this in
creased revenue of $6O,000,O00 to the
post office department should in al
fairness mean increased payments tt
the railroads of at least $4,000, 900
Nevertheless, the appropriate,
bill passed by Congress provides nj
payment to the railroads beyond thu
provision already made that five pc
cent, might be added to the pay of rail
roads on which there had not beel
weighing since January list, 1918.
At time when the Interstate Com
merce Commission is insisting tina
the railroads shall make fair charg
for every service rendered. it seems Il
the highest degree unjust that no pre-
' vision should be made adequately t
compensate the railroads for providin
and operating the transportation mi
chinery without which the mail SCI
vice would be practically impossible.

The chicks carries enough nourish-
ment in the body when it comes from
the she'll to carry it from twenty-four
to thirty-six hours. Their first drink
should be sour milk. The later the
season the greater the loss from white
diarrhoea. Sour milk is the greatest
preventative for its prevention. You
should learn to test out the infertile
eggs by placing small lamp in a
pasteboard box that has a hole in 1t
the size of an egg. In holding an
egg in front of this hole, the infertile
egg will be perfectly clear while the
fertile egg will show chick develop

You can use rolled oats with the egg
or make Johnny cake by using soda
and sour milk. Take three times the

perfect harmony and will be played

1t was a favorite tune in the North

"Dixie" has been found by official

Want BETTER DEPOTS
PARROTT AND SASSER ASK BET
TER PASSENGER STATIONS.
Terrell County Chamber of Commerce
Preparing to Take Matter to
Railroad Commission.

Secretary Morgan of the Chamber
of Commerce has been in cOrrespon-
dence with officials of the SeaboarG
railroad relative to improved depot
facilities at both Parrot and Sasser.
In reply to Mr. Morgan's letter ask
ing that the road give both the towns
named depots commensurate with the
business done, and such accommoda-
lions as proper care of the travelling
public demands, General Superinten-
dent C. S. Lake writes as follows:
Il beg to acknowledge receipt of
your letter and will be glad to look
into the matter of improved depot IA
cilities at Parrot and Sasser, Ga,
writing you further later"
Just what the conclusions of the
superintendent will be is not known,
but the Chamber of Commerce is not
depending entirely on what may be
done, and is preparing to take the
matter before the railroad commits
sion in the event the management of
the road declines to build suitable
depots. In both Sasser and Parrott
the depots are not at all commensu-
rate with the demands made upon
them or the volume of business done. |
The waiting room for whites at Sas-
ser will not accommodate more than |
ten people and the entire building is |
both inadequate and unsanitary. !
Even worse conditions prevail at Par !,
rott. The business done at each place,
in round numbers approximatlng !
$4,000 per month, is sufficient to give |
both the travelling and shipping pub
lie something in line with modern
and something that will !
be a credit to both the road and its !
patrons.
1t is understood that petitions will
be signed in both towns named and |
everything gotten in shape to go be-
fore the railroad commission in the |
event such a step has to be taken to |
bring about the desired ends.
In the matter of the proposed new
railroad from this city to Morgan, |
steps are being taken to formulate a
plan that will insure the building of
the road into this city. 1t is under
stood that an effort is making to
build the road by another route that !
would miss Dawson some four or five
miles. 1t is believed, however, that
the business men of this city and
will not permit this, and that
the road will finally be built into this
city, thus opening territory that here
tofope has not been tributary to this
city.
