Added to the list of interesting but
tardy war inventions Is a so-called
'earth torpedo" of Canadian origin,
described by Popular Mechanics Mag
azine. 1t bores its subterranean way
u~ndetected toward the enemy lines,
and then explodes with great force.
The burrowing operation is hydraulic.
The nose of the torpedo is equipped
with an ingenious boring nozzle. and
takes with 1t q length of hose. which
q pump in the trench supplies with
water at 800 pounds pressure. This
part Of the performance is silent. In
a test the device burrowed for 200 feet
and then blasted out an excavation

The PACKERS AND
REFRIGERATOR CARS

Whether refrigerator cars should be
owned by the railroads or by the pack
ers-a point to be determined by leg.
islation now pending in Washington
may seem to be q question rather re.
mote from the interests of the average
person. But, inasmuch as these 'ice
boxes on wheels" as one Of the pack.
ers terms them, are the conveyances
which bring our beefsteak to town, we
may assume that we have certain
concern about them. Ifthey have any.
thing to do with the price Of the beef.
steak our concern Is deep one.
1t is maintained by some that these
cars give the packers who now own
them an unfair advantage over com.
petitors. This is stoutly denied by the
packers, who offer as proof the fact
that they pay the same freight rates
as any shipper; and they assert that
the only advantage they enjoy Is in
being able to get enough cars for their
needs by furnishing them themselves
instead of depending upon the rail.
AVhho " 0O oOs III tAAo thCy dLO UdChCu
up by report of the Interstate Com.
merce Commission, made after an in.
vestigation Of all privately owned
cars, to the effect that there were no
unfair practices and that a radical
change would adversely affect both
shippers and the public.
While not opposing, In principle,
railroad ownership Of refrigerator
cars, the packers maintain that there
are not enough Of these cars to go
around and that the legislation In
question makes no provision for insur-
ing that the railroads shall furnish
them In sufficient number. On the
other hand, to pool their cars and take
chances Of getting what happened to
be available, would seriously handi.
cap the distribution of their perishable
meat products. The stream Of ship
ments from the packing plants would
be blocked, which In turn would block
the buying Of live stock, and the in
dustry, which Is founded on basis of
rapid distribution, would be badly
muddled.
In these contentious pro and con,
there are three parties whose interests
are at stake-the packers, their COM
petitors and the public. Only one of
these parties could gaih possible ad-
vantage If the packers, cars were
taken away from them, viz, the pack
ers' competitors. The cars are now
admittedly handled on an economic
and efficient basis, and no change is
justified unless unfairness is definitely
and absolutely proved-which would
be In absolute contradiction to the re-
port that the Interstate Commerce
Commission has already rendered on
the subject. The public would pay the
bill for inefficiency In the packing In
dustry. and 1t has no desire to pay this
bin in order to help few Of the pack
ers' competitors.

II was one Of Asa Ashley's dreams to
some time pipe the water from that
spring into his house. Therefore 1t
was with incredulous wrath that, one
summer day, he spied two men digging
. on his land while John Raymond stood
by, directing the work of running q
pipe line from the spring into his own
; house.
Only kept from some act Of violence
by Raymond's superior strength, and
only convinced of his neighbours sole
right to the waters of the spring and
q right of way over the Ashley prop
erty by a sight Of the deed, Asa's feel
tngs changed from passive dislike to
open enmity.
The next day the wall was begun.
and Raymond thereafter was forced to
be constantly on the alert for acts Of
petty malignity on the part of his
neighbor. Taking no chances, he Wis
dted the spring daily.
The children caught the spirit In
the air. Annie Raymond's little red
tongue always stuck out its full length
when Harry Ashley appeared, and the
scion of the Ashley family would yell
sderisively. Hello. freckle-faced car
rottopl" That secretly Harry greatly
admired her mop Of red curls Annie
did not know.
At seventeen, just after the death
OF his mother, the boy Quarreled with
his father and ran away from home.
Some time later John Raymond learn
ed from the gossip Of the countryside
that Harry had shipped In the mer-
, chant marine.
The years passed, bringing their
eternal changes. but Harry ashley did
not return home. TnseparabIe from his
memory of the old place, however, was
n mental picture of an authenticated
girl. with a very red tongue perpetu-
ally thrust out at him.
Then came the great war; Harry

DO NOT Want
LICENSING BILLS
Farmers, Stockmen and Mer-
chants Oppose Packer Leg /,
isIation at Washington.

Representing q diversity of inter-
ests and including farmers, feeders, re-
tail butchers and produce dealers, full
|ly a thousand individuals have made
their way to Washington to enter their
protests against the packer licensing
plan now in hearing before the senate
agriculture committee.
Far from solving In any measure the
high cost Of living. the proposed legis-
lation II passed would be dangerous
experiment for everyone, is the con-
sensus Of opinion held by these wit
nesses.
Twelve had government control Of
railroads and telephones and tele-
graphs until we're plumb worn out,
and we don't want any more" w. p.
Carpenter, stock feeder Of Tarkio, Mo-,
told the committee. "Im In favor Of
the man who can produce the cheapest
going ahead as far as he can. That's
the way to cut down the cost Of liv-
Ing"
That the packers dominated the
stock markets was an idea secuted
by testifylng stock feeders, who said
they found the stock yards places Of
keen competition.
Taking away the packers refrigera.
tor cars was ~ reasonable as taking
away their butcher knives. was the
conviction expressed BY J. p. Lynch,
another feeder from Tarlkio.
The concern Of stockmen and butch
ers who fear that hampering the pack
srs will saly result In disrupting the
meat Industry without benefit to any
one. was not the sole interest displayed
at the bearing. Business men through
out the country are strongly against
the licensing feature which would es-
tablish q precedent for bringing gov
eminent control and politics into the
conduct of all manner Of business.
Many business organizations have
expressed themselves formally, through
resolutions, as against the principle of
bringing business under government
interference Of the kind proposed in
the Kenyon and Kendrick bills.
In speaking for the chamber Of COM
merce Of Moultrie, Ga, @. T. Caldwell
said: 'We've got Swift & Co. down
there, and they've helped more than
anything else to get our farmers to
diversity. The live stock business
needs their national distribution"
