fore. Putting q homeseeker on the
land IL only the first step. He also ia
helped with the expert knowledge Of
the agricultural department until he
Ia sufficiently acquainted with his
new conditions to insure his farming
success. Mr.. Leedy, himself born on
an Indiana farm, has complete
grasp Of farming conditions from St.
Paul to the Pacific Coast, and with the
organization he has at his command,
he makes it his duty to see that no
homeseeker Is left to haphazard re-
sources. For each new settler means
about $500. in revenue annually to the
railroad. Consequently, the sole aim
Is to see that he makes O successful
farmer. Locating each farmer in that
part OF the country best adapted to
his ability and financial resources, are
important factors in this agricultural
immigration work.
The Department also devotes specia,
attention to the development work in
the irrigated districts in the state Of
Washington. The importance of this
work is shown in the fact that in 1902
the first carloads of commercial apples
were shipped out of the Wenatchee
Valley. Last year the commercial ap.
pie shipments from this district
amounted to 12,500 carloads, a greater
production by 100000 boxes than the
entire state Of New York. and more
apples than were grown In anv state
Of tho Union outside of Washington.
In addition to this there were shipped
several thousand cars Of soft fruits
and by-products. Forty million feet
Of lumber were required to manufac.
ture the boxes for this fruit CROP The
development Of the fruit industry, as
well as kindred products of the irri.
gated districts. such as alfalfa, live,
stock, etc., is increasing vastly each
year, owing to the rapid development
Of the new irrigation projects.

Increasing Utility Rates.

Election Of Socialist administration in
Davenport probably means that more deter
mined fight will be put up in that city against
the proposed increase in street car fares and
xas and telephone rates which the utilities
companies are trying to secure in the quad
cities. The Tri-City Railway company owns
ali the trolley lines, the gas concerns on both
sides of the river are controlled by the same
interests and the telephone systems are all
Bell properties. Even if the increases are nee
essary, which remains to be proved, to be fair
they must be made uniform in the entire
community.
On the Illinois side the companies have to
deal with the state utilities commission which
has shown itself generally in favor of higher
utility rates. The cities here will put up
fight, but they will not be especially optimistic
In Davenport the companies will have to deal
with . city council elected on a more or less
radical platform and not very likely to take the
the corporate view. A fight in the courts is in

1T is apparent that the casualty lists of

worst of the situation is that there is no legal
means of preventing their use They became
public property when they were printed in
the newspapers, and any promoter may use
them without fear as long as his scheme is
not so nebulous that it comes within the juris-
diction of the postoffice inspectors.
THE veterans societies might, however
proftably engage in counter activity, warning
the relatives of our dead to scan their mail
with care. And, if the practice becomes more
aggravated, they might investigate and ex-
pose the schemers.''
