In view Of reports that railway
train service may Be impaired on ae-
count Of the war. the following state
ment from T. p. Ripley. president Of
the Santa Fe, perhaps will b d In
terest:
THE Atchison. Topeka 4 Santa
Fe Railway Company will Be in .
position At all times to handle
promptly the business offered BY the
government on account Of the war,
without seriously inconveniencing
regular patrons. In event OF . rush
Of troops. or army supplies. We
might have to slow down . bit With
other business. but II would be for
only . few days. Our program for
troop movement II thoroughly un-
derstood by everybody having to do
with It's workings, and II will be car
ried through without delay or fric-
ton. Shippers have been advised Of
the situation. and are cooperating
with Us. TO the end that there b.
no food or fuel shortage In our ter
ritory ~ . result Of the possible tenn
porary reduction OF service made
necessary by . possible unforeseen
heavy troop movement.
THE Santa Fe has NO main line
trains In operation which are NOT
needed to take care OF traffic. and no
poorly patronized branch lines which
are not demanded by the pubiic-ia
several instances ordered by the
state commission. The Santa Fe has
labored long to increase the eff
cheney Of its service to the public.
to keep expenses down to the lowest
notch consistent with good railroad
ing, and at tho same time pay its
employees wages on which they can
live and provide for the future This
policy will be continued. In the
present crisis the company will b.
able to render the government the
best service that II il possible for
any railroad to give. and 50 long
as people who don't go to war con-
tinue to ship freight and travel. the
service they need will be forthcom-
ing.
As a public service corporation.
the Santa Fe has two-fold duty to
perform--to help win the war abroad
and TO continue to help build up the
country at home. for use after the
war is over. II Is not contemplated.
therefore, that q radical change will
be made In our train service. How
ever. II and when the exigencies Of
the war situation require II. the e.
tire facilities Of the Santa Fe viii
be devoted TO the service Of the gov
ernment. even TO the extent OF can

E.perine.s with Dairy Cow.

In an experimental way twenty
four high grade Holstein heifers-
all related--were fed on skim milk

on alfalfa hay and silage and twelve

two years. The idea IL to find out
whether or not cows getting the
grain will develop sufficiently and
give enough extra milk II allowed to
calf six months earlier to pay for
the extra feed they will receive. The
experiment will be continued until
the cows are six or seven years old.
BY that time the records will show
~ least three milking periods. Two
Of the heifers have already fresh

ducing thirty pounds Of milk. eat
