KEEP THE CARS
MOVING, EDICT
RECEIVED HERE
Department of Commerce
Offers Suggestions to Re-
lieve Shortage

Keep cars moving. with a full load,
and settle differences of opinion aft
erwards," Is the purport OF a list Of
suggestions for relieving the present
car shortage and freight congestion
just received by ], P. Hardy, secre-
tary of the Fargo Commercial club,
from. the bureau Of foreign and do
mestic commerce of the United States
department of commerce.
Unload promptly all loaded cars re-
ceived, load promptly all outgoing cars
and anticipate disposition Of freight
before its arrival" are other sugges-
tons in relieving the shortage.
The commercial club has been con-
Quoting q campaign among Fargo
manufacturers, jobbers and business
men to facilitate loading and unload
ing Of freight cars, with excellent re-
suits. 1t is said.
The bureaus suggestions:
l.. UNLOAD PROMPTLY all loaded
cars received. -....
2. LOAD PROMPTLY all outgoing
cars, and release them Immediately to
the railroad.
g.. Anticipate disposition of freight
before its arrival.
4. Do not order special types of
cars, when ordinary types will serve.
s. Eliminate use Of railway equip
ment in trap, or transfer cars when
tonnage can be handled by motor
truck or wagons.
6. Load all cars to their full CAR
lRYING CAPACITY Clio per cent
marked capacity of CUBICAL CA
tPACITY-so that maxifum use Of each
car will be obtained.
This can be accomplished by
(a) More careful supervision OF
loading;
OBJ Producers and buyers-agreeing
to disregard established trade units
and increase the units as a WAR
MEASURE;
(c) Waving RIGHTS in regard to
minimum weights under tariff and
traffic regulations;
CD BUYERS increasing their orders
so as to fill the car, and PRODUCERS
disposing Of their output on a basis
of full carrying or cubical capacity of
equipment furnished;
(e) Buyers who cannot handle larg-
err quantities clubbing together with
other buyers to make full capacity
cars;
~ Showing customers who desire,
MERELY AS A MATTER OF CON-
VENIENCE smaller units than max
imum, how they can help the general
situation by enduring inconvenience.
z. Load freight requiring REFRIG-
GRAFTON to the SAFE carrying
capacity for the commodity loaded.
s. Load freight requiring VENTI-
LATION to the SAFE carrying cap
acity for the commodity loaded, but
understand that this class Of freight
can be loaded much heavier than
freight requiring REFRIGERATION,
although not always to the full visible
capacity.
Results.
BY more intensive loading there will
be a reduction In the number Of cars
UNDER LOAD, which will particularly
relieve congested territory, where it is
q question OF track room, rather than
of equipment, so that business can and
will be handled more promptly. Cars
detained by congestion will thereby
be relieved and since congestion ex-
lists in the great consuming centers
reduction in the number of cars UN-
DER LOAD will result In better equal
ization OF equipment throughout the
country.
In all cases-keep the cars NOV
ING, with full load, and settle diff
ferences of opinion afterwards.

MURDERED BY RATCHET PLAN
Body of Italian, Literally Hacked to
Pieces, Found in Lonely Spot on
Outskirts of Racine.

Racine - Taken to a deserted spot
near the north end of Horlick's park,
Giuseppe Starteri, about rs years old,
Chicago Heights, ILL.,, was murdered
by four men.
Apparently he was thrown to the
ground and while held there one of the
men used a Ratchet, found by the po-
lice, to commit the murder. The mans
head was almost severed from the
body by hatehet cuts just below the
chin and again a few inches lower.
The skull was crushed in three
places and the murderers had even
chopped away fingers from both hands
and had attempted to sever the arms
at the wrists The Ratchet used was
found near the body.
People heard the cries of the victim
and summoned the police, but they
found only the body, the murderers
having escaped. In the pockets of the
clothing were found a letter addressed
to Starteri at Chicago Heights and his
registration card issued in Cook coun-
ty on June 5.

Gated.
The youngsters were missed from
their home at supper time and every
foot of territory for miles around had

CHANGES AT FAIR GROUNDS
Many improvements Being Made to

Exhibit Best In Years.

Milwaukee-W When crowds gather at
the great Wisconsin state fair, Sept.
10 to Is, many pleasant surprises
await them in the way of improve
ments.
The fair itself, its entertainment
features and it's racing programs will
be by far the best of it's sixty-seven
years of history, but that isn't all.
This year a new $4,000 poultry build
ing has been built.
At the cost of $4,000 new water
and drainage system has been IN
stalled, one creek having been placed
in concrete funnel 900 feet long and
being entirely invisible.
Drainage has been SO planned that
there is solid ground upon which TO-
900 automobiles can be parked free
of charge.
Next year the mammoth concrete
stand will be given another $4,000
section. There will be a seating capac-
ity at popular prices for 1880 persons
this year.
The state fair is planned this year
to be of greater than usual educational
value along it's many lines of insp1ra-
tional work, and the entertainment
features will not only be numerous,
but of the highest class.

MAJ. GEN. PARKER
TO LEAD BADGERS
DIVISION COMMANDER HAS REP
UTATIoN OF BEING MAN
OF ACTION.
KNOWN IN ARMYAs LONG JIM
Was Colonel of Volunteer Regiment in
the Philippines and His Rise Has
Been, Rapid - Troops to
Travel in Large Units.

Camp Douglas - Maj Gen. James
Parker, who will command the Elev.
enth division composed of Michigan
and Wisconsin troops, is known in the
army as Long JIM" because his legs
are lengthy and none too straight
President Wilson has promoted him
from the rank of brigadier general to
major general, and he will join the
Badger state troops at Camp MacAr-
thur, Waco, Tex.
Col. E. N. Jones, mastering officer
= here, knows Gen. Parker intimately
and Gen. Charles r. Boardman has
met him on several occasions. He is
described as tall, rangy and soft spo-
ken He is striking in appearance, and
has the reputation of being man OF
action He was colonel of volunteer
regiment in the Philippines, and his
rise has been rapid.
Under his command, the Eleventh di-
vision may be subject to experiments
during the encampment in Waco His
record shows that he is a man OF ideas,
and is not timid about experimenting
to improve the efficiency Of his come
mand, although he may see little that
needs changing in the Wisconsin
troops that will come to him.
1t seems almost certain that when
the guardsmen move from here that
they will be sent to Waco by regi-
ments, although no announcement to
this effect has been made. Any at
tempt to move all the units would tie
up more equipment than any railroad
could probably spare.
The soldiers travel one man to a
seat, which gives some idea of the
number of cars that would be neces-
sary if Uncle Sam asked that about
$4,000 men be moved in day.

Many Letters Asking Advice Received
BY Agricultural coIlege-Do 4ore
in Present Emergency Than
Most People Imagine.

Madison-The college of agriculture
of the university announces that more
is being done by Wisconsin farmers to
aid this country in it's war emergency
than most people imagine. 1t is de,
clared that already farmers are pre-
pairing to increase the productlVeness
of their farms next year.
1t is said that never before has the
agricultural department received SO
many letters asking advice as to what
crops to put in to benefit the nation.
This has been especially true since
the United States department OF agrl-
culture sent out "a bulletin declaring
that there must be an increase in
acreage.
Many letters are being received
from farmers describing the character
of the soil on the farms, and asking
what acreage will be the best for
wheat The wheat acreage in Wiscon-
sin was greatly increased this year,
and it is believed the farmers will meet
the demands of the government as re-
CARDS wheat acreage next year.
The university is planning to keep
up its inspection of the farm situation
and to give all the aid which farmers
may desire. 1t is expected that, by
early in September, figures can be
given as to the value of the W1scon"
sin crops this year. 1t is stated that
