Washington, Feb. 15.--Proposed in.
creased freight rates in grain and
-four for Minnesota and other sections
of the northwest to gulf ports for ex-
port were suspended today by the
Interstate Commerce commission un-
til June Is for investigation.
The car shortage situation brought
about by embargoes will be considered
tomorrow by the executive commit
tee of the American Railway associa-
ton, it is expected.
If the embargoes are continued, one
result, it is predicted, will be the
dumping of thousands of tons of food
stuffs into domestic markets in order
to prevent the food from perishing.
Railroads are said to be suffering f.
nancially and il is pointed out that
only by unloading supplies at the cit
les where loaded cars stand idle can
the situation be relieved.

No period Of human history in which
Jerusalem figured is more interesting
and remarkable than the latter part Of
the eleventh century, when Pope :reg-

Palestine. Gregory's war didn't eventu-

ed in the famous Crusades and caused
the most general upheaval and concen-
traton of world opinion ever recorded.
After the centuries of slaughter, tyr

rule, all Europe revolted from earthly in

Sits Back and Gives
Us the Merry Ha-Ha!

Nobody in Detroit was surprised by
the attitude Of the common council Tues
day night in refusing to accept the sug-
gestion of Mayor Marx and rescind its
action abolishing shp-stops and calling
for the car routes in effect before the
DUR. increased its rate Of fare.
A common council capable Of taking
the action in the first place was capable
of a refusal to repair the damage done.
The great majority Of Detroiters were
disappointed, however.
Street car riders. numbering many
thousands of Christmas shoppers were
disappointed.
Detroit merchants, who are suffering
q loss of trade amounting to hundreds Of
thousands Of dollars, were disappointed.
Just where, then, does representation
Of the city's interests come in?
But did this common council ever rep
resent anything7
Those aldermen who have cut eff the
eity's nose to spite it's face are acting
like lot of silly school boys and we have
to blush for their stupidity.
The Detroit United Railway IS not suf-
fering from their action, which suggests
more than anything else that they must
have been completely bewildered or some
thing when they took Il
The situation they have brought about
Is water on the D. U. RS wheel and dis
cussion of the increased rate Of fare Is
already thing of the past, as the street
car patrons demand SERVICE.
At the season Of the year when this
service should be the best, it is the worst,
and yet, one alderman has accused the
mayor of holding up the white flag, and
has done it without smiling.
1t is the common council that had sur
rendered TO the D. U. R., its majority,
pity be, having blocked a competent rea-
sonable and really representative minor
ity.
The business houses Of Detroit de-
mand better street car service.
The manufacturers Of Detroit demand
better street car service.
The workers of Detroit demand better
street car service.
Detroit's part in the war calls for bet
ter street car service.
Better street car service can be had at
once by putting back the sldp-stops and
old routes, with one or two exceptions,
notably half-city service crossing Wood
ward, which never should have been al
lowed in the first place.
Every interest in Detroit demands bet
ter street car service; but our common
council, controlled by its majority Of
more or less enlightened statesmen,
which majority has just been repudiated
by the voters of the city, says the inter
ests of Detroit, and those of the war,
cannot have better car service.
Meantime the D. L. r. sits back and
chuckles over our helpless predicament.

kets Bulletin.


This does not refer to the liquor
question. which now seems the para
mount issue in the country, but has
TO do with the question of dry farm
ing as against irrigation. The Cam
as Prairie Courier has the following
| timely article on this subject:
Two experiments of vital interest
TO the world and more especially to
the citizens OF Camas County, are
being worker out In this valley, nam
ely the theory of dry farming as
against that of irrigation. Each side
has advantages to its credit and the
final decision will not be rendered
this year nor next year, but the evil
dence on which the verdict depends
is being collected and the advocates
of one OF the other system should be
on their mettle to make the very
best possible showing for their res
pective sides.
For The production of hay, or
chard and shade trees the irrigation
| system shows at its best Even in
these lines bad irrigation might be
worse for the soil in the end than no
irrigation at all.
On the other hand the dry farmer
might have so many discouragements
70 contend with at first that he would
be tempted to renounce his faith in
dry farming when as a matter OF fact
he was laying up money in the soil
for the first two or three years OF his
efforts without knowing It, Exper-
fence has shown that land cultivated
for several years in a much drier
climate than ours has accumulated
moisture for the growing OF such
crops as orchard trees requiring
small outlay OF moisture the first
years.
The dry farmer also is in no dan.
ger OF inju-ing his land by practicine
his theory unless he works II when
extremely wet or extremely dry.
One thing Is certain. much OF the
land OF the United States that was
once considered arid and worthless
because not located for irrigation
can be made to produce good crops
by scientific dry farming
II is equally true that much LAND
in Idaho and elsewhere can be mad,
to produce paying crops only Will
irrigation Just where the line will
be drawn depends upon the showing
made by the advocates OF the tive
methods.
