have to say Mir Kruttschnitt, exec utiye head of the Southern Pacific has written an article dealing with the financing of railroads He said in part:
 The financing of a railroad is function which the people, through their servants, the Railroad Commis- sioners and the Legislators, have never attempted, but it is a most i'm. portant problem, especially to sec tions of State where new railroads are needed The placing of securities has been left entirely with the pro moter and owner of railroads.

Don't try to bully the world It does not pay. Whoever enters the ring for a rough and tumble fight with public opinion is pret- ty sure, eventually, to be knock ed out. " Society is a Briaerus, and who would think of encoun- tering with a single pair of fists, a hundred-armed fellow? Bet ter shake the multitudinous hand of the giant, good naturedly, than unnecessarily provoke his wrath. Despise the world if 1t so pleases you, but as you have to live in theHworld and to lean on the world. it is just as we'll to treat it civilly. Shrewd men, who understand their race, ney- CT seek a quarrel with society They understand that it is poss- ible for an individual to lead and quietly control community, but not to fight it down and not to force it to their way of thinking by means of narrow laws. If you desire to reform supposed or real evils or dis buse your fellow men of their prejudices, the sur est way not to succeed is to re. sort to denunciation and abuse. Kindness, conciliation and the II tiueuce of good example
 these are the true and effective t.eaLs of reform.

number of farmers have decided to make the experiment this year of growing a crop of tomatoes for the fall market. It is be- lieved that Southern grown to- matoes will sell we'll in the fall, even in some of the Northern cities; but the chief reliance for a market is being placed on the cities of the South. The South ern grown tomato crop IS eX- hausted by the early part of July and for the remainder of the sea- son the markets are almost bare of this vegetable. The object of this undertaking is to supply this scarcity, and it is expected that the tomatoes will be ready for the market in September and October.
 The seed were planted in cold beds about the first part of this month, and during July they will be transplanted to the fields.
 The farmers at these places ard other points along the P. x N W. R. R., ale figuring, also. on planting a crop of radishes and head lettuce for the fall mar. ket, and a crop of onions to be sold as green buching onions next spring The onions will be set about September 1st, but the radishes and lettuce will not be p'anted until after the fall rains < | in.
