IMPORTANT RATE
 CASES COMING UP AT MONTGOMERY
Raw Materials of Birming- ham District Materially Affected By Outcome
 of Hearing
By FRED H. GORMLEY
 Montgomery Bureau The Age Herald
 1ol-o Cfret NatfnnaI naak R.,tIdfna

Montgomery June 5.-(SpeciaD. Two eases of great importance to the state
 and one which has attracted great at- tention because of its unusual demand will come before the public service com mission for consideration at it's monthly |hearing Monday. In one case the Ala bama Company is seeking to obtain order from the commission which will Frequre all railroads operating in Ala | bama to make substantial reductions in |the rates they are now charging for the hauling of iron ore, coal coke and lime Estone. It is charged that the railroads were permitted by the director general |of railroads during the war to make Ia blanket increase of 9 per cent in intra- |state rates, but instead the railroads increased the rates on the four commodi- ties from 70 odd to more than 120 per |cent.
 The company has requested the com mission to issue order requiring the |railroads to reduce their rates so the in- crease over pre-war rates will be only |25 per cent
 In another case L. L. Stephenson and the Standard Portland Cement Company |seek an order which will require the Alabama Power Company to carry out |contracts for cheap rates made prior to September 25, 1915 It is contended that the power company granted cheaper con- tract rates until the public service com mission took Jurisdiction September 9, 1915, but that when the commission rer-
 mtted certain increases the company
 increased the rates already set by the contracts.
 Many industries in the Birmingham dis trict are interested in the outcome of
 this case.
 The unusual case is that of Ray Rush.
 ton, receiver of the Montgomery Li2ft and Traction Company, who not only asks the commission for the doubling of
 the rates for electric current generated by the company. but also an order re-
 quiring the competing company, Mont gomery Light and Water Power Com
 pany, to make the same increase. ME Rushton contends that his company is losing money and that the new rates are necessary, but that it's business will
 go to the other company unless it also
 is forced to place it's rates on parity
 with the ones proposed by MT. Rushton This case is being watched with interest by all towns and cities of Alabama.
 Cases on the docket for consideration at the June term follow:

Argentina is about one-third the size of the United States. Fully one-half of this area is in temperate zone and closely rarallels much of the plains regions ot the United States. When it is remem- bered that the topography. soil and natu- ral grass also resemble that of this re- zion. it is to be expected that live stock raising is one of the principal industries of Argentina.

Spraying Got Results

H. T. Huffman who owns a bench
farm joining the townsite of Kend-
rick, said that from one kernal OF
bald barley planted this spring.
over 600 kernaIs were produced.
MIR. Huffman got good results this
spring spraying for scale. His
cherry, pear and apple trees were
badly infested with this little pest.
He sprayed first with lye and vltrol,
following this application about
two weeks later with a spray OF
lime and sulphur. He says the
scale have entirely disappeared and
he has cherries that he is shipping
to Lewiston, receiving ten cents g
pound for them.

Pocket Gophers

These little fellows are beginning
to make their presence known. Up
until the present time they had not
done the usual amount of damage.
The best bait is powdered strych-
nine alkalold mixed dry with one
eighth part of soluble saccharine.
This is placed inside raisln and
dropped in runway and the hole
closed up to the light. One gopher
will throw up 10 to 80 mounds and
two or three bats will be sufficient
to use for each system. The run
ways are located by proddlng "a
round near the mounds with sharp
stick or small iron rod. Raisins
are the best bait, but other things
can be USED such as ionion sets,
apple or small cubes of potato, car
rot, or parsnip busted over with the
poison. Small portions of the
mixed chemicals can be secured at
the Farm Bureau Office, but can
not be sent through the mail as it
is illegal.

Fishermen Return

/\Carl Brown, Ed Long, Otto Rau-
schke. Aaron McCreary and Fred
BoIon returned Sunday morning
from a trip to the North Fork.
They went about two miles above
Big Island and caught plenty of
fish. Carl caught one trout twenty
inches long. They brought GA
fish home, all measuring over IL
inches in length, besides quite few
smaller ones. They left Big Island
Saturday morning and arrived about
nine o'clock Sunday morning.
One day the bunch decided to
walk up the river few miles and
fish down. The trip was hard one
and they thought the return could
be made easier on raft than or
foot, so they bound number OF
long cedar poles together and start
ed on their way. Everything went
we'll until the raft struck rocl
while going through rifle. l
was entirely wrecked and the mem
,bers of the party were forced t.
swim out. They lost their fishln,
rods, baskets and some other equip
ment. 1t was three o'clock tn
following morning before they wer
able to get to camp.

Increase Advertising Rates

Beginning August /, the Gazette
will be forced to raise advertising
rates. A slight raise was made
some time ago, but 1t was entirely
inadequate to cover the constantly
increasing overhead expense in the
office. Practically every shipment
of paper that has been received at
this office during the past four years
has been at higher price than the
previous shipment. 1t is true that
the increases have been small each
time, but covering a period of four
years the aggregate has brought
the price up to an alarming extent.
Newspapers all over the country
have been very slow in raising
rates-entirely too slow, as it has
proved disastrous to many of them.
A newspaper plant, like any other
business enterprise. has to keep its
overhead expenses down in pro-
portion to its gross income. 1t the
overhead expense is doubled and
the gross receipts remain station
ary, it is not very difficult to see
that something unpleasant will
eventually happen to the manage
ment if the business is conducted
along these lines. ....
Nearly all of the papers over tht
country have met the increased cost
of production by raising rates long
ago. Their patrons have evidentl!
looked at the matter in reasonable
manner, as no reduction of adver
tising space has been noticeable il
any of these papers.
The paper on which the Gazett
is printed has advanced over 40
percent since the present edito
bought the plant, and it is predict
ed that the peak of high prices ha
, not yet been reached as sut
stantial increase is expected
} take place before the first of tn
, year.
Everything else that enters int
the expense of publishing news
paper, has increased greatly /
D price, So that the only way to NEE
the situation is to increase rate
to cover the larger cost of public;
: tion.
