four hundred mills and feed stores were
inspected last year by the department of
milling industry in the Kansas State
Agricultural college. Eleven hundred
ninety-eight violations Of the feeding

Many OF these violations were unin-

was clear violations were prosecuted.
In the inspection work. the inspector
takes q legal sample, seals it and sends
1t to the food laboratories in the chem

reported by competitors and for this
reason 1t is dangerous to put an UNI

WESTERN ROADS
 WANT INCREASE
Railroad Managers Assert Increase Is Necessary or Western Lines
 Will Be Bankrupt.

CHICAGO, March 4.-The hearings before the Interstate Commerce Com mission which is considering the ap plication of the western railroads fol permission to raise their rates began here this morning. There are appli cations from forty-one railroads oper ating west of the Mississippi river which request an advance of both the passenger and freight rates.
 It is estimated that the advance in rates asked by the western roads would mean an increase in their rev enues amounting to more than $10, 0O0,O00 in freight annually. The ap' plicants assert that the railroad rates have not been permitted to advance while the different classes of goods in which they deal have been advanced from 10 to 30 per cent. Wages have also been increased and many of the western states have passed legisla- tion concerning working crews which have added to the cost of operation.
 The railroad officials assert that the earnings of the roads have not permitted them to keep their road. beds in condition and that the con. struction of new and necessary branch lines must be abandoned unless the increase is granted.
 The hearings will be continued for several weeks and all shippers in the territory controlled by the transporta- tion lines asking increases will be giv- en an opportunity of presenting their side of the question.
