To thePublic:
We have learned that there is a great
shortage of knitting wool in England and
a total lack of it in Switzerland. AS there
are enormus numbers of destitute Belgi
ans who would be thankful to knit for
themselves, and as the means of almost
every one permit of their buying a few
skeins of knitting wool, may we make an
earnest appeal to your readers for wool,
even small quantities of which will be
most gratefully received and forwarded.
Nav we suggest natural" khaki and
grav as being desirable colors?
Either by post or express the wool
should be addressed to

RATE INCREASE
NECESSARY
FARMERS UNION OFFICIALS
THINK RAILROADS ARE EN-
TITLED TO MORE REVENUE.
Products Of PIow and Farmer VINO
Lives at Home Should BE
Exempt From Increase
BY Peter Radford.
ct,,rar National Farmers' Union.

BY Peter Radford.
Lecturer National Farmers Union
The recent action of the Interstate
Commerce Commission in granting an
increase in freight rates in the eastern
classification of territory; the appllca'
tion of the roads to state and inter
state commissions for an increase In
rates, and the utterances OF Presloeht
Wilson on the subject bring the farm
ers of this nation face to face with the
nroblem of an increase in freight
rates. It is the policy of the Farmers
Union to meet the issues affecting the
welfare of the farmers squarely ana
we will do so in this instance.
The transportation facilities OF tne
United States are inadequate TO el-
fectiyely meet the demands OF COM
merce and particularly in the South
and West additional railway mileage
is needed to accommodate the move
ment of farm products. If IN the Wis
dom of our Railroad Commissions an
increase in freight rates is necessary
to bring about an improvement IN our
transportation service, and an exten'
sion of our mileage, then an increase
should be granted, and the farmer Is
willing to share such proportion OF
the increase as justly belongs to hlm'
but we have some suggestions to make
as to the manner in whlcn thls III
crease shall be levied.
Rates Follow Lines Of Least Resist
ance.
The freight rates of the nation have
been built up along lines Of least re-
sistance. The merchant, the manu-
facturer, the miner, the miller, the
lumberman and the cattleman have
had their traffic bureaus thoroughly
organized and in many instances they
have pursued the railroad without
mercy and with the power of organ
ized tonnage they have hammered the
life ont of the rates and with unre'
strained greed they have eaten the
vitals out of our transportation system
and since we have had railroad com.
missions. these interests, with skill
and cunning, are represented at every
hearing in which their business is
| involved.
The farmer is seldom represented
at rate hearings, as his organizations
have never had the finances to EN-
ploy counsel to develop his side ol
tbe case and, as a result, the products
of the plow bear an unequal burden
of the freight expense. A glance al
the freight tariffs abundantly proves
this assertion. Cotton, the leading
agricultural product Of the South, al
ready bears the highest freight rate oi
anv necessary commodity in com
merce, and the rate on agricultural
products as a whole is out of pro
portion with that of the products o.
the factory and the mine.
We offer no schedule Of rates, bu
hone the commission will be able tt
give the railroad such an increase II
rates as is necessary without levyint
a further toll upon the products o.
the plow. The instance seems to pre-
sent an opportunity to the Railroad
Commissions to equalize the rates al
between agricultural and other classes
of freight without disturbing the rates
on staple farm products.
Milford chronicle., 1915-01-29
What Is a Fair Rate7

We do not know what constitutes
basis for rate making and have never
heard of anyone who did claim to
know much about it, but if the pros
perity of the farm is factor to be
considered and the railroad commits
sion concludes that an increase in
rates is necessary, we would prefer
that if come to us through articles OF
consumption on their journey from
the factory to the farm. We would,
for example, prefer that the rate on
nogs remain as at present and the
rate on meat bear the increase, fol
anv farmer can then avoid the burden
nv raising his own meat, and farm
er who will not try to raise his own
meat ought to be penalized. We
think the rate on coal and brick can
much better bear an increase than
the rate on cotton and -four We
would prefer that the rate on plows
remain the same, and machinery
pianos and such articles as the poor
er farmer cannot hope to possess bear
the burden of increase.
The increase in rates should be SC
arranged that the farmer who lives
at home will bear no part of the bur
den. but let the farmer who boards
in other states and countries and
who feeds his stock in foreign lands
pay the price of his folly.
