FREIGHT RATES ON WOOL

Mr.. G. q. Bergen of Spokane,

port for ths benefit of members Of
the association.

HOW TO PATCH GRAVEL ROAD
Road ls Wet, Preferably When
Water Is Standing in Ruts.

Patching is usually neglected or
done in such a way as to cause two
ruts to form where there was but one
before. That is the invariable result
of filing a rut too full. This work
should always be done when the road
is wet, preferably when the water is
still standing in every little hollow on
the road surface, so that the workmen
can just see where to place the new
gravel and about how much is needed.
Unless the rut is very large one,
it is always best to shovel the gravel
from the wagon into it, rather than to
raise a sideboard and attempt to dump
a part of the load. Patching done in
the proper manner when the road is
wet, followed by road drag, will
maintain an old gravel road surface
as good as new until it is so badly
worn that an entirely new surface is
required. The gravel should never be
poorer than that forming the surface
layer of the old road, and espe cially
should contain little, but not an ex-
cess of clay.

prepared by the United States Depart

Many hotels and restaurants in the
large cities are eager to secure prime
young guineas, and they are often
served at banquets and club dinners
as a special delicacy. When we'll
cooked, guineas are attractive in ap-
pearance, although darker than com
mon fowls. The flesh of young birds
is tender and of especially fine
flavor, resembling that of wild game.
Like all other fowl old guineas are
very likely to be tough and rather;
dry.
A few of the large poultry raisers,
particularly those who are within easy
reach of the large Eastern markets,
make a practice of raising a hundred
or so guineas each year. but. the great
majority of guineas are raised in small

Carriers application seeks fourth
section relief on baled wool at a
rate of $1.35 from Pacific coast ter
minals to Atlantic seaboard, which
rate is supposed to be blanketed
back to the Missouri river and rates
from intermediate points of origin
to Eastern points of destination are
to be made by adding to the term
inal rate the Fouth Glass rate from
point Of origin to the nearest term
inal point, subject to the present es-
tablished rates from the interior
point as a maximum. AS to wool in
sacks, the rates are to be 35 cents
per cwt. higher than rates on bal
ed wool, and no proposal is made by
carriers to establish specific rate on
to Eastern points Of destination.
Such sack wool rates are construct
ed from the terminals, as an exam
pie, in the Northwest by taking the
rate on sack wool from Troutdale,
Oregon, and adding thereto the class
rate from Troutdale to Portland,
consequently there develops a situa-
ton whereby the rate from Portland,
Ore, on sack wool is higher than
the rate from Troutdale, although it
was admitted in record that there
was no water competition so far as
sack wool was concerned.
Examiner Eddy directed carriers
attention to the amendments in the
Fourth Section of the Act to regu-
late commerce, which proviso re-
quires that the Commission shall not
permit the establishment of rates at
the more distant point that is not
reasonably compensatory for serv-
ices performed. We made a dem and
upon the carriers to show whether
or not the $1.35 rate proposed from
terminal cities was compensatory
and the carriers agreed to furnish
that data at one of the Coast hear
ings. The failure Of carriers to in
troduce this evidence at the Boise
hearing met with vigorous protest
on the part of the protestants in that

flocks of from 10 to 25 upon farms in
the Middle West and in the South.
Domesticated guinea fowl are Of
three varieties-Pearl, White and
Lavender. The Pearl is by far the
most popular. 1t has purplish-gray
plumage regularly dotted or "pearled"
with white and is so handsome that
frequently the feathers are used for
ornamental purposes.
Guinea hens usually begin laying in
April or May, those in the South laying
earlier than those in the North A
short time before the opening of the
laying period the hens with their
mates begin searching for suitableI
nesting places among the weeds and
brush along the fences or in the fields.
In this search the male takes as ac-i
tive an interest as his mate, and when
a suitable location is found both help
to dig out the nest and make it into
suitable shape.
Each day as the hen goes to the nest
to lay the male accompanies her and
remains nearby until she comes off.
Should anyone approach he shrieks in
warning and thus betrays the where
abouts of the nest, which might other
wise be difficult to locate. If several
guinea hens are mated with one male
they usually all lay in the same nest,
but sometimes hen after mating will
wander off by herself to make her own
nest. At times a male bird, after help
ing one hen to make her nest, will
then desert her and pair off with an
other hen to make another nest.
From 20 to 80, and often more, eggs
are laid before the guinea hen becomes
broody, at which time she can be easily
broken of her brOodiness by removing
the eggs from her nest, when she will
soon begin laying again. If not al
lowed to sit, guinea hens will continue
to lay throughout the summer, laying
from 40 to 60 and in some cases 100
eggs during the season. say poultry
specialists Of United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Ordinary hens are used, commonly,
to incubate guinea eggs, but guinea
hens, turkey hens and incubators also
can be employed successfully. The
usual setting for a guinea hen is about
IA eggs for hen Of the general pur-
pose breeds, such as Plymouth Rock,
IS eggs; and for turkey hen, about
"a eggs. The incubation period for
guinea eggs is Is days although fire.
quently they start Matching on the 26th
day and are all hatched by the end Of
the 9th day.
If the nest in which the guinea hen
becomes broody is safe from any dis
turbance she may be trusted with a
setting of eggs, and more than likely
will hatch out every egg that is fer
tile, provided all hatch at about the
same time. AS soon as the guinea
chicks begin to leave the nest the hen
will leave with them, and any eggs
that are late in Matching are ruined
unless they are placed in an Incubator
or under a broody hen before they be-
come chilled.

locality, as it did not afford them an
that phase of the case. However, it
may be of interest to other members
of the intermediate Rate association
to know that on cross examination,
j. w. Mount, representing the trans
continental carriers, took a position
that the proposed S1.55 rate was
reasonably compensatory rate, and
when asked if that rate included the
cost Of service, taxes, uncollectable
revenues and interest on investment,
he answered Yes, and said further
that in his opinion a rate would
have to include all of those elements
in order to be reasonably compen-
satory. This admittance on the part
Of the witness we considered very
helpful to cur side Of the case.
Our suggestions to other mem
bers of the intermediate Rate asso-
citation in preparing for the hear
ings at which they will appear is to
bear down hard on the fact that
there is no wool produced near the
Pacific coast terminals and that the
present rate structure, as well as
the proposed rate structure, would
only have the effect of driving the
business to the terminal where it
would be subject to water competi-
ton, whereas if the terminal rate
was blanketed back to the interior,
that situation would not exist. Sec
cnd, we think it very advisable to
make strong showing on the finan-
cial situation with respect to the
wool industry. The reason for this
is that the Commission, in the re-
cent Western Live Stock case, by a
tentative report, has recently taken
the position that rates NAV not be
unreasonable from transportation
standpoint but be unreasonable from
an economic standpoint"
