Commerce Commission
Readjusts Freight Rates
By Associated Press

Washington, d. c., Oct. 31.-Freight
rates throughout what is known as
southeastern territory-east of the
Mississippi and south of the Potomac
and Ohio rivers-were generally re-
adjusted to-day by a decision of the
Interstate Commerce Commission. The
decision, supplemental to one an
nounced several months ago, concern
ing operation of the long and short
haul law with respect to class and
commodity rates from all sections of
the country to destinations in the
South Atlantic and Gulf States, au-
thoriZed the carriers, in most instances,
under specified restrictions, to continue
existing class and commodity rates
which, in most instances, are higher
to intermediate points than to the
more distant points.
Rates on both class and commodity
freight from New York and the east,
generally from st. Louis and Chicago,
and from all Ohio river crossings and
Louisville and Cincinnati, to and from
points in the South Atlantic and Gulf
States. are affected. In most instances
existing rates are authorized. in which
there are technical violations of the
long and short haul provision, but in
five specific instances the commission
declined to grant permission to the
carriers to exact higher rates from the
northern and eastern points named to
intermediate destinations than to the
more distant points. The decision is
effective April 1, 1915.

Cleanliness Makes For
Clean Poultry Profits

Clean hens, clean nests, clean hands
and clean baskets or crates, all make
for clean profits. For fancy trade the
eggs may be stamped with date of
laying If the poultryman finds it a
popular and profitable practice. Eggs
for Matching may also be dated and
marked to indicate the mating or pen
whence they came. Use the small end
for this marking.
Prompt shipment after production
should be~the rule. Eggs even one
week old are not fresh. Attractive
packages help to sell first quality eggs
at more or less of premium. Light
boxes of cardboard with filters hold
ing each one dozen eggs are now much
used. Each carton may have printed
on its cover the name of the youltry-
man, and any helpful advertising mat
ter. These packages are sent to mar
ket in strong, light cases or crates OF
any convenient size. Some producers
are satisfied to ship their eggs in
common market egg crates with card
board filters. These cases are mex
pensive and usually carry the eggs
without much breakage. If shipping
in large quantities or at regular times
to a dealer, the latter should furnish
crates and supply themwith clean fill
ers.

DON'T SELL CAPON
BEFORE TEN MONTHS
Quality of the Flesh Depends
Upon Feeding Over a
Large Frame

1t does not pay to dispose of capons
before they are ten months or a year
old. At this age the birds have made
the most profitable gains and the
quality of the flesh is at it's best.
The quality of capon flesh depends
much upon feeding, the secret being
to first equip the bird with a large
frame and then proceed to burden
the frame with maximum of tender,
juicy meat in the shortest time posi-
BILE. For several months after the OPP
GRAFTON, good growing ration and
not feetening ration, is required. IL
may be made up of whole grains,
ground grains or combination of the
two. AS with other poultry, there
best results. Later in the Fall when
the birds cannot forage, green feed of
some kind must be provided. A some
what more fattening ration tnan that
required for laying hens seems to give
good results.
AS capons are usually not marketed
until about Easter, they have to be
boused throughout the winter. Their
disposition has become quiet ad mac
tive an dthey will therefore need more
protection than fowls tina are on the
alert. They will stand crowding quite
well, two or three square feet of floor
space to fowl being enough although
four or five square feet is preferable.
During the last month or six weeks
before marketing, the corn in the ra-
ton should be gradually increased un-
til the fowls are on full fattening
ration. For the last two or three
weeks it is best to shut them up in
creates for every additional ounce in
weight at this stage improves the ap-
pearance of the carcass and increases
the profit

WYANDOTTE CLUB To
EXHIBIT 800 BIRDS
Combined Poultry Shows to Be
Held in Harrisburg De-
cember 8 to IL

The Central Pennsylvania Poultry
Association is receiving congratula-
tions from many sources on the sue
cess o fits efforts to bring the National
White Wyandotte Club to Harrisburg
for its annual show and meeting.
The Boston, Buffalo and Madison
Square Garden shows competed with
Harrisburg for this attraction. Lib
eral inducements and personal letters
setting forth Harrisburg's advantages,
sent to the members the votes of
whom determined the choice of cities,
won out for the local association.
The annual show of the Central
Pennsylvania Poultry Association and
that of the National White Wyandotte
Club, will be held jointly in Chestnut
Street Hall, December to IL inclu-
sive. This will constitute the great
est poultry attraction in the east this
winter. The club alone expects to
enter 500 birds, the Wyandotte aris-
tocracy of the United States and Can

Club members will compete only
against each other. There will be
six classes in the Yvandotte exhibits

Such dainty frock as this ono Is sure
to be needed with the opening of the fall
season. 1t can be made from fine white
voile or from chiffon, from crepe de chine
or from the new soft taffetas that are
almost as thin as chiffon and quite as
pliable. The long-waisted body portion
is tucked and trimmed most effectively
and the skirt with the oddly shaped trim
ming that is joined to it gives very
childlike effect. The little bit of hand
work on the front of the frock gives just
that touch of distinction which needle
work is sure to produce. In the picture,
rose-colored chiffon is trimmed with white
lace and the sash is of rose-coiored ribbon.
In the back view, a simpler effect Is OBJ
tanned by the use of challis in a pretty
shade Of blue that is made with long
sleeves and with palmer skirt.
For the Io-ytar size will be needed 4
yards of material II inches wide. AZ
yards SO, or 31s yards a., with 10 yards
of insertion and 6 yards of edging to
trim as illustrated.
The May Manton pattern No. S422 is
cut in sizes for girls from to IL years of
age. 1t will be mailed to any address by
the Fashion Department of this paper, on
receipt of ten cents.

THE WAR AND THE POTASH
AND FERTILIZER COMPANIES
Fertilizer Companies Have Enough Potash to Last Through
Fall-Good Fertilizer Can Be Made Without Potash.

cient to give practically the same
food value to plants.
There has been a good deal of fad
about the use of potash in fertilizers
Fertilizer companies have used it be-
cause they considered it indispensa-
BILE. There is distinct food value to
potash beyond question, but it is not
such an exclusive value that its pace
cannot be taken by other elements.
Nitrate of soda content could be in
creased, more phosphate rock could
be used, or a thousand variations of
the scores of formulas now used
could be devised which would tide
over the crisis.
In no case does the potash content
of any grade of fertilizer run over
100 per cent. 1t varies from 1 to 10
per cent, or from 20 pounds to 200
pounds of potash per ton. The great
cotton crop of the South uses but ,
per cent of potash fertilizers and
there is undoubtedly enough potash
in Southern fields now to get along
nicely for a year or two even if fer
tilizer without any potash were
used.

BROOKS FREED OF MURDER CHARGE

Had Been in Jail on Charge of Kill
ing Shippey in Webster County.
The committal trial of A. e.
Brooks for the alleged killing of Jos.
Shippey in Webster county three or
four weeks ago resulted Wednesday
in the complete generation of the
defendant and his release from GUS
tody. The committal trial was held
before three justices of the peace,
j. w. A. Hawkins, Oscar Sims and
John H. Cantrell, and consumed the
entire day, quite large number OF
witnesses having been examined for
the state and for the defense.
The homicide occurred at the home
of Mr.. Shippey, where Mr.. Brooks
had stopped one day for dinner, the
men being near relatives and much
esteemed farmers of Webster. There
was one eye witness to the tragedy, a
negro woman, who testified that the
shooting of Mr. Shippey was done by
a negro man, whom Mr.. Shippey had
accused of the theft of pistC!. The
negro has since left the county and
his whereabouts are unknown.

BOSTON.-At first blush t would
seem as if general European war
with Germany the center of the Mar
tan contest would deal a crushing
blow to the great American fertilizer
companies. All the commercial pot
ash of the world comes from Ger
many, whose kali syndicate has earn
ed the cordial hatred of American
consumers because of its high-handed
and arbitrary tactics. But the world
has had to go to Germany for it's
potash, and these shipments have
now been ruthlessly and completely
cut off.
Up to twelve years ago practically
no potash was used in American fer
tilizers. Even today potash forms
but four per cent of the content of
the American fertilizer production of
100000 tons.
If worse comes to worst and the
war dragged into next year the fer
tilizer companies would simply say
to their customers that they could
manufacture fertilizers without pot
ash, increasing the chemical content
in other directions to a degree suff1-
