commission to support the New
England case. He states emphatically
that it viii be a most serious thing for all
the railroads of the country if the New
England ines are permitted to 90 into the
hands Of a receiver, as the New England
railroads representatives have been told
the commission will surely be the case if
relief is denied them.
1t is known that many railroad execu-
tives besides Howard Elliott are deeply
concerned over the outcome of the New
England case and while the other rail
roads east of the Mississippi do not feel
like digging down into their pockets to
help out the New England roads, by per-
hitting the divisions of joint freight rates
to be increased, nevertheless they are hop
ing that some way may be found by which
the new transportation act may be made
to work. For they realize that a break
down in the government guaranty method
in one case might seriously affect the whole
Structure of transportation finance and
might be especially serious at this time
when economic conditions generally are in
delicate stages of readjustment.

WASHINGTON. Dee. 21.|Questions
raised by practically all the New England
railroads before the interstate
commission indicate that the entire tnan-
cial policy of congress toward the railroads
of the whole country as declared in the
TRANSFORMATION act may break down unless
relief of some kind is Immediately forth
coming.
Congress plainly said that the railroads
of the country should earn at least of2
To 6 per cent on the value of their prop
erty. The New England railroads have
confessed before the interstate commerce
commission that they are earning nothing
as a whole and are insisting that all the
other railroads east of the MISSISSIPPI
should be compelled to give up at least
SO. 900 in revenut on freight rates TO
enable the New England lines to meet
their deficit.
But the other railroads. on the other
hand. contend that they too are failing
by many millions to earn the & per cent
which congress intended and they claim
There is not to be any surplus revenue 10
divide with the New England group OF
roads. In fact, the eastern railroads,
which include some of the most important
lines of the country, have been SO hard Int
by the sharp decline in freight shipments
since October that they contend they are
earning less than : per cent ON the value
of their property, and a serious question
has been raised as to whether the inter
STATE mmp commission viii not find 1t
necessary to award another general i'll
crease in freight rates m order to carry
out the command If congress that the rail-
roads should get ut least dig per cent on
their investment.
The eastern railroads. however. con-
tended that the New England line ought
to increase their local freight and pasSen-
ger rates within New England i'll order to
meet the emergency. but New England
SINNERS declare they could not stand
any such raise and particularly would
they oppose any increase in rates whch
was sectional and not general in its appll-
cation.
The whole controversy hinges on the
claim of the New England roads that the
interstate commerce commission in valuing
the railroads in the eastern group included
the property of the New England lines,
estimated to be worth about SS4O,OOO,0OO
on which the government guarantee OF u
per cent would eutitle them to over
JO.0OO.0O0 annually. But the SS4O,-
100000 was grouped with all the other
TallrDad properties IN the east, thereby IN
c~reasing the value of all railroads east OF
the Mississippi upon which the interstate
commission based its increase
of 40 per cent in freight rates. Had New
England's property been withheld from
the group, it is estimated that the other
railroads would have obtained about
S26.0OO.O 900 less. And New England,
railroads ask that this be transferred tC
them.

One of the surest ways of saving
your nerves and consequently your
beauty is to adopt system in the
way you do things.
You will find it surprising the
amount you can accomplish each
day without feeling tired at the end
of it, if you adopt this plan. So often
you hear woman exclaim ooh,
haven't time" Sometimes the thing
she hasn't time for is truly impor-
tant, but she has to pass it up.
You will always find that she has
leisure enough to stand around and
gossip on any old subject at all.
What are five or ten minutes to herf
But if she took the trouble to add
them up during the day she would be
surprised at the total.
Take the fifteen minutes she
spends in bed making up her mind
to get up, the. txtra fifteen minutes
of over-lengthy phone conversations.
The half an hour perhaps an hour,
spent fussing in front of the mir
ror, the quarter Of an hour spent
empty handed while she is waiting
for people, all the odds and ends of
the day, due'to a lack Of system.
The cleverest woman 1 know, the
one who accomplishes the most, al
ways makes up list of the things
she wants to do the next day and !
places it on her open desk before re-
firing. She also has everything she
needs laid aside so that there is no
fumbling, no hesitation, no wasted

profit Of over $50 on less than an
acre. In speaking of this Mr.. Polin
stated the returns are much more
than he had expected, taking into
consideration the condition Of the
orchard; but he ise convinced that
by giving u orchard good treat
ment and care, which consists Of
fertilizing the ground, pruning and
spraying the trees, that the orchard
on the average farm in Kentucky,
can be made to bring in handsome
returns. At least it will more than
pay its way, which will mean con-
siderable to the people when it is
possible for them to have all of the
fruit that they want, besides some
to sell in order to defray operating
expenses. This orchard can be taken
as fairly representation Of the gen.
eral orchard conditions of the state,
and it will illustrate what can be
done by good management.

EDUCATIONAL TOOTH TALK-22
Satisfactory Plates

Anyone unfortunate enough to be
obliged to use artificial teeth ought
to have the very best set it is pos
sible to secure. Many have found
cause for complaint in their inability
to keep their plates in place. This
is dueto a poor fit. The dentist may
not be- to blame, however, as ones
mouth is constantly changing-only
slightly, to be sure, but enough to
"outgrow" the plate, so to speak.
There is no remedy for this of
course, but there is no excuse for a
plate not fitting at the start and for
many years to come if made by the
improved methods in vogue in lead
ing dental offices.-Dr. H. M.
Wright, Traders Bank Building.

cized by persons who think that it
supervises and directs all the chill

their initiative. This ought never to
be true and I do not believe that
under true kindergarten teacher it
is true. The mechanical spirit is fatal
to all teaching. The teacher should
be more than a drill master and she
who is more anxious to exhibit well
drilled class than to secure the de-
velopment of natural and spontan-
eous life in the members Of her class
is no true kindergarten teacher. I
am almost inclined to say that the
kindergarten teacher, like the poet,
is born, not made.
Ny faith in the kindergarten can
be expressed in sentence, thus: I

Give Orchard a Chance

The Extension Hortiiulturist of
the College Of Agriculture has been
conducting demonstration orchards
in various counties in the State of
Kentucky. In practically every case
it has been found that where good
methods have been applied and good
management given the orchard, prof.
itably returns have been received.
Mr.. Joseph Polin, Springfield, KY,
had one of the demonstration or
chards during the 1920 season. This
orchard contained approximately an
acre and part of the trees were not
given treatment in order to demon
strate what treatment would do as
means of comparison. Mr.. Polin
was, submitted the following figures
to the extension horticulturist as
representing his seasons work.
The treated trees produced over
AZ bushels of Number One fruit and
some of these, apples, were sold DUR
ing the summer and some were kept
for winter use, and the price is esti-
mated at the present figures, which
makes the total value of the 40
bushels, SOL. The cost of giving
this orchard the necessary treat
ment such as pruning, and spraying,
was estimated at 500, making a net
