Dead Stock on Unloading Decks.
THAI anywhers from one to u animals
suffocate. This is particularly true Of
hogs. The shipper should remember
that stock cars frequently stand in
freight yards completely henmed in
by trains of box cars. Under such
circumstances, if the animals are
crowded IN the car and the weather
is hot. overheated and dead animals
are almost certain to result
Another mistake frequently made Is
to load mixed stock without proper
partitions. When two or more species
of live stock are shipped In the same
car they should generally be kept
separate by building strong partitions
This is particularly important when
large animals are shipped with smaller
ones.
1t has been found that shipping live
animals any considerable distance is
an undertaking always fraught with
some risk This risk, however, may
be materially reduced, In the opinion
of department specialists.
The exact number Of animals that
should be shipped in a car, naturally,
varies with the size Of the car the
size and kind OF animals, the length
Of haul, the season of the year. and
weather conditions. There can be no
variation, however. in the general rule
that the animals should have sufficient |
room TO be reasonably comfortable. |
and that the car should be SO parti- !
toned that large animals cannot
trample the smaller ones. and Nhat ag
gressive and quarrelsome animals can
not injure those with more quiet and
timid disposition.
Even ar the present comparatively
ow price of I've stock a single dead
IT crippled animal invariably repre-.
tents a substantial loss. and in many
Instances wipes out the prndt on The
Dfira shipment.

anticipate the requirements Of the mar

and 1t therefore becomes desirable In
some instances to change the trees
which have been planted from one va

market or home requirements.
Besides the question Of suitability
Of the variety to the needs Of the
market It has been found with citrus
fruits that there are strains Of 9TH

produce paying crops. When trees OF
such strains are found in the orchards

after having determined which OF the

Substitution by Repairmen
Makes Many Owners
Complain.

Automobile manufacturers gener-

suffering because of repairmen's Gu
pidity in substituting inferior parts
for genuine in making replacements.
according to a bulletin issued by the
National Automobile Chamber of
Commerce.

in the trade, are very unlikely to be
as good as the original, because. to
undersell the latter, they must be
made cheaper, which nearly always

Gunner, chairman Of the service COM

will get any substitute parts"
Gives an Illustration.
As an illustration of his conten-
tion. Mr.. Gunner said in conclusion:
"A service manager of one Of the
automobile manufacturers recently
had his attention called to a number
Of parts which had been returned in
a few days by owners who were very
much dissatisfied with the service the
parts had given. Investigation show
ed that the parts were not genuine.
So it is that car owners are being
urged to interest themselves to see
that they do get bona f1de parts.
The manufacturers interest in the
sale of parts is incidental. His prin-
cipal business is selling cars. The
dealer in pirate parts or the repair
man selling them is looking for a
large turnover SO that the smaller
priced parts may net him a profit. He
cannot be expected to be unselfiishly
concerned for the owner. Since the
manufacturers invariably recommend
genuine parts, it is wise to regard
their advice. inasmuch as their in

reputation and not in selling parts"

Dear Folks:
Shortly before leavin' on my vaca-
| tion I expressed in this colyum my
opinion Of certain automobile speed
demons. an In ruther pithy bit O.
verse told out loud just what I'd do il
ever give the chance to set in jedge-
| ment on sich misbehavers! That my
outburst was misunderstood by some
gas-car owners is quite evident from
the big batch O. protest letters I
found in my box on returnin' to the
Job. many of which tore me to pieces
an accused me OF bein' absolutely
one-sided an more'n unfair!
One iii "persimmon" in particular
was most abusive, called me a boil
sheviki. said l was knockin' the
greatest convenience OF modern
times. an claimed that If I'd take
time to go deep enuff into the matter
I'd find that at least 80 per cent Of all
traffic accidents was due entirely to
keerlessness on the part of pedes-
trians! He ended his TRADE by beg
gin a square deal for the much
abused motorist! Homes. his epistle
broke me up considerable!
Now. far be 1t from me to start any
extended controversy on this much
mooted question. but in all fairness
to myself 1 do feel justified in settin'
myself straight with the thousands
of safe an sane automobilists who
filter about our city. an for who
have the greatest respect! ,Thurfore,
takes this opportunity Of passin' a
few remarks touchin' on an apper-
tainin' to the jay-walker. of which,
lemme say. we sure have our full
quota!
Unlike a speeder, the jay-walker is
able to get away with blue murder
without bein' dee-tected! If missed
by the motorist nuthin' ever comes

tween him an the "misser," an as
pedestrians greatly outnumber them
who own cars, as a rule his buddies
back him up an sick him to the
limit! II spilled on the pavement,
well. there amt nuthin' to it! Old
mister slipshod-walker wins off by
himself, for the sight of him sufferin'
as he says stretched on the sidewalk
SO upsets the onlookers that nine
times outa ten they wanta string up

tellin' exactly Just what proportion
of traffic accidents is due to reckless
