The eggs laid by a hen may be

to high temperatures than the un-

hatch an infcrtilc egg or TO cause

eggs are much more likely to rc2ch
the table in good condition and there
is much less spoilage in shipments

Big Saving to Public.

Dig SdNIuS W 6bi'Ss
If rates had risen proportionately to
the increase in the cost of other arti-
cles of ordinary use, Mr.. Kruttschnitt
told the committee, the average pas
Senger rate in 1915 would have been
29J cents mile, or 80 per cent higher
than it was, and the average freight
rate would have been 1.21 cents, or 66
per cent higher than it was. The saw
ing to the public in passenger fares
through this difference was $314,0OO,-
600 and In freight rates 81 $40 ,00O,O 600.
Universal railroad bankruptcy under
this reduction in rates and increased
cost OF operation, he said, was avoided
only by heavy expenditures to obtain
increased efficiency in train movement,
makingSt possible to haul more tons OF
freight per locomotive. This had re-
duced the average cost of hauling
ton Of freight. but the decline in the
average freight rate had reduced the
net revenue of the roads from each ton
hauled. If tN operating costs OF the
railroads, including the prices Of coal.
labor and material, continue to ad-
vance at the present rate lot of rail-
roads will be in the hands OF receivers
by 1918 unless some relief is afforded,
Mr.. Kruttschnitt told the committee.
Owing to the rise Of commodity
prices" he said, .'the purchasing power
Of the dollar has fallen 80 per cent and
the railroads are in the position Of be-
;ufs cuDlDolIod nv law TO ACCEPT pay
ment for their service to the public in
currency worth 45 cents on the dollar.
Pub'ic's Chief Interest.
+ The public's greatest interest Is in
adequate transportation facilities and
not 50 much in low rates. AS to most
commodities freight rates form very
small proportion Of their cost. En-
Guiding low grade commodities, the
percentage of the freight rate to the
cost is 50 slight as to offer no justiiica-
ton for any substantial increase In
prices 10 the consumer Ii may be
stated with little fear OF contradiction
that the consumer seldom, If ever.
profits from a lowering Of freight rates.
"Extortionate charges are thing or
the past, and under the attempt to cut
rates to their lowest possible figure
the interest Of the whole public in the
character and standard Of transporta-
tion Is subordinated to the interest Of
that part Of the public only that profits
by lower rates--that is to say, the ship
pers and their agents and not the gen.

Washington, April 2.-The condition

Why Roads Need More Money.


a bearing on the reasons for the appli-
cation of the roads to the Interstate
Commerce Commission for general
advance in freight rates. He showed
that while the price of transportation
has declined in recent years. the cost
Uf producing transportation. like the
cost of almost everything else. has rap
idly advanced This he illustrated by
showing that if freight and passenger
rates had increased during the past
twenty years in the same proportion as
average commodity prices the railroads
OF the United States would have re-
ceiyed 4.O00.OO0 more for trans
p0rtation in 1915 than they did receive.
This saving to the public was effect
ed. in spite Of an increase OF % per
cent in the cost of operation Of trains.
by reduction in the average passen
ger rate per mile from 2.O4 cents in
1888 to l.9S cents in 1915. a decrease
of 3 per cent. and by reduction in the
Average freight rate per ton mile from
S.39 mills in lS95 to 7.3 mills in 1915. or
l3 per cent. During the same period
the cost of operation per train mile
rose from 81 cents to Sl.1S. almost
doubling At the same time the aver
lge price of 34G commodities enumer-
ated in a bulletin of the Department of

before us"
Surely not since 1860 has there been greater need
than that every citizen dedicate himself TO what
ever service his country may ask OF him.
SO let make this holy day OF Lincon's birth day
OF Dedication patriots day.
And that day let every man and woman willing 10
dedicate soul and body the nation tho national
coors mark OF that dedication
And let every home and Office building and business
establishment display at least one flag.
And let hag, however small, remain nfurled.
II you ready to dedicate yourself, show your
eolors.
