When Villa sent the bulk of his
army In pursuit of Velasco's main

San Pedro was attacked by federal
volunteers under command of General

CUMMiNS WARNS THE PUBLIC
Tells of Campaign In Favor of Freight
Rate Increase.

Washington, April 14.-Senator Cum.
minis of Iowa charged on the floor of
the senate that a persistent and wide
spread campaign was being made to
arouse public sympathy for the re-
quest for a per cent increase in
freight rates on Eastern railroads,
now pending before the interstate
commerce commission.
The senator expressed confidence
that the commission would decide the
question on its merits, but said the
public was being misled by incorrect
and exaggerated statements.
Senator Cummins compared the
railroad situation with the Panama
canal tolls question, declaring that an
advance I'm railroad rates of per cent
will amount in one year to more than
all the tolls paid by all the ships that
will go through the canal in twelve or
fifteen years and more than American
coastwise ships, IL they paid full toll
would be charged In half century.

Washington, April 14.-President

He added that he did not consider

successful in getting eggs from a
bunch of June Matched pullets. My
correspondent reminds me that have
advised readers of this paper not to
hatch SO late as this and calls me to
account for my apparent inconsist.

prise to find that anyone remembers
what have written for these columns
and am therefore the more anxious
understanding. I am not opposed to
late Matching but l have always hest
tated to recommend it to our readers
because not everyone can rear late
chicks successfully and make a re-
spectacle profit out Of them. There
are plenty of people who can do this,
and l know quite a number OF them
myself, but as editor of this depart
ment l feel it incumbent upon me to
advocate conservative practices, when
giving advice at all.
AS matter of fact some people can
get good results with chicks Matched

he thinks of his prophecy now. I'm
fortunately such people as he make
up large proportion of the poultry

year a larger proportion for the total

that make for success or failure in
getting the eggs, there is the quality
of the stock to be considered and the

part but probably the greatest factor
in the equation is the egg rancher

There is no doubt but that May

continue to lay well throughout the

all that person wanted; just to be as
sured that his fowls would lay we'll
