In reply to the charge that the pres.
ent state printing .administration, is
the most expensive in history Stat
Prfnter R. A. Harris has addressed a
communication to Secretary of State
Ben Olcott showing that while there
are apparent discrepancies there has
really been an actual saving on the
cost of the printing done. His let
ter follows: , ,
Recent newspaper discussion of the
estimate of this department on the
cost of printing for tbe next biennium
may tend to create some doubt as to
the record of efficiency made tinder
the present state ownership system.
There need be no confusion as to the
cost of the public printing by any who
desire to know the facts. A fair es
timate of the cost for 1915-1916 under
the' present method of state owner
ship will be . 1120,000. The estimate,
were the old law still in vogue, would
have to be (180,000.
Ever since the state took control of
the printing plant every item of print
ing has been computed at old law rates
as well as at new law cost. This was
done purposely to demonstrate the
comparative results beyond dispute.
For one even year of state ownership
the cost of the public printing was in
round numbers. 854,000. Doubling this
for a two year period the amount
would be $108,000. The estimated in
crease for 1915-18H has been placed
at a trifle over 10 per cent, making the
total amount for that period 8120,000.
Measured at old law rates toe one
year's printing would have cost in
round numbers,. 881,000. or 8162,000 for
two years. Raised by the same per
cent for increased printing in 1915
1916, the amount would reach $180,
000. Records of tbe office contain these
facts in detail for all who wish to ver
ify them. They have never been and
win never be disputed except for po
litical purposes. The work is filed
here exactly as measured at old 'law
rates and -with detailed summary of
cost under the present law.
Everyone at all familiar with the
printing department understands that
past appropriations have not covered
and have not been intended to cover
the full cost of the public printing.
For several bienniums there have been
deficiencies ranging from $16,000 to
$25,000. and aside from the deficien
cies, still larger amounts have regu
larly been paid for printing from other
funds than that appropriated for
printing. The printing appropriation
has been intended merely to cover
what has not otherwise been provided
for.
The, discrepancy now seemingly so
apparent is due to two salient facts:
First, the placing of the total cost in
one lump instead of erroniously re
garding the printing appropriation ' as
covering it all. and second, the stead
ily increasing volume of printing.
Under the former law all navments
for printing frona other sources than
tne printing appropriation saved the
appropriation to that extent. But
under the present system all earnings
of the department must go into tne
state treasury and all the cost must
be paid from the printing fund.
Give the present state printing de
partment the same appropriation n hud
for 1913-1914 and the same income
from other department funds that it
had when that appropriation was made
and it would have returned to the
state, accordinar to undisputed records,
over $50,000. In the same manner, by
a fair estimate, it will do the public
printing for $60,000 less for 1915-1916
than would be possible under the for
mer law.
A process has been discovered in
Japan by which silk worms may be cul
tured ten times a year. Instead of
twice, as usual, and better silk pro
duced. .
Decrease Xs gnown.
The average railway operating In
come for August, 1914, fell off $3 per
mile or 0.8 per cent from the Income
in August; 1913, according to a com
pilation last . Issued by : the bureau of
railway economics, established by the
railway companies of Che United States
for the scientific atudy of transporta
tion problems. This decrease was on
top of a decrease of 13.6 per cent from
that of August,. 1912. The total oper
ating revenues per mile for August
decreased 5.6 per - cent over August,
1913, operating-expense per mile de
creased 7.8 per cent and the net operat
ing revenue per mile decreased 0.6
per cent.; The total mileage of t the
country represented in the figures was
227,184,. of which 126,291 was in the
western district.

A returned traveler says, "When . I
was in Europe this year I found both
cities so thickly dotted with hairdres
sing parlors and hair goods stores that
r wondered if the women ever had
time for anything but care of the hair.
Personally I was interested In finding
a really good shampoo and was hap4l
pily surprised when several Inquiries
each brought the suggestion that our
own American made canthrox sham
poo is best. I tried it and have de
cided that It is not advisable to use
a makeshift but always use a prepa
ration made for shampooing only. You
can enjoy the best -that Is known for
about three cents a shampoo by get
ting a package of canthrox from your
druggist; dissolve a teaspoonful in a
cbp of hot water and your shampoo
is ready. After its use the hair dries
rapidly with uniform color. Dan
druff, excess oil' and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear. Your
hair will be so fluffy that it will look
much heavier than It Is. Its lustre
and softness will also delight you,
while the stimulated scalp gains the
health which insures hair growth."
