WAGE To
COST THE S. P.
I MILLIONS

SAN FRANCisCo. July 3O,-The
effect of the wage award upon the
pay rolls OF Pacific coast railroads is
Indicated In estimates made here yes
t.rday at IN. general offices of III"
Southern Pacific company. that the
added bill for all tina, compnny's lines
aion, would approximate Si7.500.-
600, The exact figures remain to be
determined but Il was said that the
figure quoted was believed to be very
nearly correct Officials pointed out
that stockholders OF the Southern
Pacific last year received In dividends
3i7.t7s.t60. 80 tina, this one recent
wage Increase distributed among the
company'a employees equals the
amount that the stockh iders got al
together. There are over $4,000 en-
ployes on the Pacific System lines.

resented by comparing 1911 with
1919. In 1911 for every dollar paid
the stockholders OF the Southern Pa
cific about 80 cents went for taxes:
but in 1919 for every dollar the
stockholders received the company
paid out - cents In taxes, Taxes
increased from s5.4Gi.570 In 1911 to
5l2.Si2.270 In 1919.
The new increases In freight and
passenger rates are due directly to
the increased cost OF operations:
flrst--wages: second--higher cost OF
materials used In operations: and
third-taSes. The fourth item is the
necessity OF providing revenue by
taking care OF the interest charges on
money borrowed to furnish more
locomotives, cars. additional tracks,
terminals and other facilities to give
a better service"
The gross earnings from all
sources exceeded ses0.550. 900 In
1919. out OF which the stockholders
received sl7.47s.4so. In 1914 gross
revenues were sl52.s23.s5o out OF
which the stockholders received
sls,3si.0so. The increase In divi-
dends was not due TO an increase In
rate but to an increase In capital
stock. the bond-holdcrs having ox-
changed some OF their 4ec and SO
bonds for capital stock under their
rights as bond clders.'

When YOU plan your Spring sewing for

The effect is charming and they can be
laid away in the Autumn and used again

When the wintertime portieres are
taken down for thorough summing
and airing pack them away in camphor
for a few months, and in their places put
up cretonne hangings, not too light IN
color, with good small all-over pattern,
or with alternating cream and dark stripes.
They will change the entire appearance
of the rooms and will give the family

Make Money by Culling Poultry.

Many people are skeDtical regard
ing the advisability of culling the
poultry flock during the fall months
Many more people have never given
attention to the farm poultry flock
and don't realize that is can be made
one of the most profitable lines on
the farm.
The poultry culling campaign which
will be carried on in Williamsburg
County under the direction of Miss
Hattie McMurray, County Home DEM
ontsration Agent, during the early fall
will, however, bring many people to
realize chat the farm flock can be
made much more profitable opera
ton than ordinarily realized. 1t is
safe to say that 80 per cent of the
hens on the farm do not produce
enough eggs during the year to pay
for the feed they consume. By SIM
pie tests, which can readily be under
stood by the owner of the poultry
flock, these improbable hens can be
eliminated; the same upmber of eggs
will be produced, and there will be a
material saving in the poultry feed
bill.

INSPECTS GASOLINE TANKS
Filling Devices Found to Be
Incorrect.

Columbia, July 27.-The inspectors
of the weights and measures bureau
of the State Department of Agrlcul-
ture have been examining gasoline
tanks and measuring devices in the
principle selling markets in the State.
Commissioner Harris recently gave
out a statement as to the corrections
made in the gasoline pumps at Ander-
son, where several were found incor-
rect. While many pumps are not ac-
,curate, there are few that register
against the seller and some are not
badly wrong one way or another.
Inspector Gilbert has forwarded his
report of work in Greenville during
the week past. Out of thirty-six test
ed, he adjusted four and condemned
five for repairs. One pump was en-
tirely out of order. Two were found
that were half a gallon short on each
five gallon delivery, and these were
condemned.
Some of the notations Of the in
spector read: Zone cubic inch short
on each five-gallon dilevery; eight
cubic inches over in each five gallons;
nine cubic inches under five gallons;
seven subic inches under five gallons;
nineteen cubic inches under five gal
lons;" etc. The inspecting OF these
delivery pumps is not a haphazard
kind of process, but is made with great
care and diligence. The department
has special instruments approved by
the Bureau of Standards in Washing
ton after the most exacting tests.
It is the swish Of the department
to cooperate with the people over the
State in getting weights and meas
ures regulated" This is not matter
of few days, but is a steady and te-
dious undertaking. Ice wagons and
gasoline filling stations are being
tested now, and a great many inac-

curacies and injuStices have been cor
rccted.
The next sizable undertaking by the
department will be to test wagon
scales on which are weighed cotton and
cotton seed. Commissioner Harris in
vites the cooperation of the people
by having pointed out weighing and
measuring devices that are suspected,
but he cannot send inspectors imme-
diately upon every call. as they have
to let each request take its turn.
