Our notion is that living human being can be much more
ttingly employed in looking after the proper living of his
life here and than in Investigating beyond the
pale of mortality The world experiencing wave of spi-

JERSEY CITY RENT

Justice swayze. He held II was a.
legal TO devote public funds TO the de-

voids the efforts Of Jersey city K
save tenants from excessive rentals
The first OF the ordinances providot
for the assignment of city funds to do

 Manager Jim Luby, of the Pioneers. is confronted with the problem of filling two gaps in his lineup-Palmer. the pitcher, having gone to New York State. and Al Johnson, the hard-hitting shortstop, having resumed his studies at Middlebury College The loss of these two players, coming at this time, is keenly felt by the Pioneers Manager Luby is in touch with two out-of- town players who will be hand for the game Sunday. Manager McConn and Man ager Luby have talked over this matter and an agreement has been reached this score.

FARMERS GETTING
 AFTER FREIGHT CARS
Want to Find Out Why Crops
 Cannot Be Moved

Chicago. Sept. 1.-The first survey of freight cars ever taken by the farmers of a state has just been com pleted through the Illinois Agricul- tural Association, Secretary D. o. Thompson announced today. On the basis of this census, he said, Illinois farmers did not believe there was a car shortage. The trouble with trans portation he characterized as ''immo- bility' and he declared the farmers meant to find out whose fault it was
 Secretary Thompson said the asso- citation undertook its census after re- ceiving reports from farmers over the state that they saw many cars stand ing idle on country tracks.
 Members of the association made daily records of the car initials and numbers of all cars at 494 stations To- cated in 46 different counties for seven consecutive days" the state farm bureau executive said. "Of these 494 stations, 146, or 29.5 per cent reported some of the same cars on tracks the last day of the count as were on the tracks the frs day of the count.
 listed the first day and of these cars, Joo out ot hiiO S,Sot Ndio iisbl HUI been moved from the country point for seven consecutive days. This is just a little over 10 per cent of the cars at such points.
 No count was made in Chica go. In several other large yards the asso- citation enumerators were elected from the yards by railroad officials.
 Mine operators say they were forced to idleness many days each week leading to the strike of the miners which recently tied up the mines just when the farmers were needing coal for threshing. At this same time before the strike in Chris tian county, at Clarkdale and at Will leys, two trains of coal cars totaling 5 cars were reported empty at both first and last days of the count.
 "If we may take the total number of freight cars of the country on De- cember 31, 1918, as basis for com putation and consider that the per- centage of immobility of cars is as great in Chicago, Toledo and New York as in country points like Clarks- dale, Fidelity and Low Point, it is very moderate when we say that the total number of new cars which the railroads say they need to meet the transportation requirements of the presen moment, is not a patch to the
