Street CARS
WON'T Be run
OUT, STORRs
Electric Railways
That Do Not Oper-
ate Bus Lines Be
hind Times" Says
Road Director

Wausau, Wis.-Street car riders
were assured by Lucius S. Storrs,
of New York, managing director of
the American Electric Railway
Association, that their cheapest
form of local transportation is not
going to be taken away from them
by wild cat bus operators or by
the continuously increasing use of
private autos, even though some
electric railway companies are
now having a difficult time max
ing income meet expenses.
Storrs, in speaking before the
convention of the Electric Rail-
way section of the Wisconsin Util-
tiles association, said that local
transportation is in the state of
transformation throughout the ma
ton and that existing companies
must adopt the motor bus as an
ally and must improve their SER
vices to keep abreast of the wants
of the people.
Companies who do not co-or-
dinate bus and electric railway
services are behind the times"
said Storrs, for it is one of the
most important current phases of
the progress of the transportation
industry
He said that while electric rail-
ways in Wisconsin are leading the
nation in co-ordinating street car
and bus service that Wisconsin,
which pioneered in public utility
regulation, is tagging behind 9TH
er states in the regulation of mot
or buses. He termed it unjust to
regulate electric railway compan-
les, compel them to build and main
tain their own roadways, and then
allow bus operators to run with
out regulation and operate on
roads built and maintained by
money secured from taxpayers.
public officials in Wisconsin
who have departed from the prin-
ciple of regulat ion of public car
riers," said Storrs, have caused
Wisconsin to fail to keep step
with the general movement toward
regulation of buses. In more than
thirty states commissions have
partial or complete control of the
operation of motor vehicles and
the trend toward entire control is
strong"

FOREIGN HONEY TOO THIN

Washington bee keepers want
Guyatamala honey branded just
as the eggs imported from China
are tabled TO warn purchasers of
their origin, the state department
of agriculture says. Probably be-
fore the year ends state legislation
will be asked to put a tag On
honey from the southland.
Local apairists claim the Guya-
tamala honey is thin and that the
people of this state, really would
not ike it if they had to take 1t
straight. But the honey is de-
clared TO be mixed with the pro
duct of Washington bees and in
that form fools even some of the
epicures, II is said the Guyata-
nala honey can be imported and
shipped into the state at a cost of
from 6 to I cents and that is much
lower wages than Washington
bees viii work for.

The odor of lime and sulphur
is pretty strong these days where
orchardists are spraying their frmt
trees for the anticipated crop of
apples, pears, and plums. Nothing
that comes easy amounts to much.
1t is the fight the horticulturist
wages each year against codling
moth, aphis, scale, and other pests
that rewards his efforts with a
harvest of good fruit. All fruit
brought a fair price last season,
and prospects this year are bright
er than last. Strawberries are be
ing contracted at 8 cts. per ID.
Some advise holding for even a
better price. With big crop Of
fruit, and fair vine and bush
crop in sight, with a reasonable
price, the island should take a
long forward step ere the year
closes. Whatever your crop may
be, it will pay you a hundred fold
to give it the best care possible
Prune, spray, cultivate, thin, and
fertilize-and then sweat and

Of profits for the last ten years
than poultry" said J. S. Carver,
head Of the poultry department at
the State College Of Washington
The insignificant hen may
make considerable fuss over one
egg, and it is therefore hard to
give her credit for her real value
in agricultural production. The
production of all those cackling
hens for the year 1919 amounted
To over ten million dollars worth
