Arrivals of sheep also showed a decrease, but prices wcro steady at the previous level. Speculators wcro said to be almost the only buyer ot hoes, the bulk of which sold between $7.70 nnd $8.00. Slaughtering at livestock at the Union Stock; ards was resumed today after a nlno day quarantine placed by federal and Btato authorities bc catiBO of the prevalences of tlio foot and mouth disease. Tlio quarantine was officially raised at midnight. Only animals which had been passed by stato and federal veterinar ians ns free from the contagion and which have been shipped in from dis tricts where tho disease has not been reported, wcro allowed to bo killed. Each animal must be passed by an examiner. "WASHINGTON, Nov. 1C Con necticut and Montana today wcro placed under federal quarantine be cause of outbreaks of tho foot and mouth disease. l'lcld inspectors today reported de velopment ot the disease in tho vicin ity of Hartford, Conn., and at Glen dale, Montana.

GOVERNMENT CONTROL OF RAILROADS RIOAlilZLNCJ tho pivsiMil unsatisl'm'iot'y relations lo tweon tho railroads nml tho nooplo, Prositlout K. I Riploy or tho Santa l'Y lias oomo out opt'iily for jrovorn niont control of railroads on a plan soinowhat similar to that of tho rosorvo banks. Among othor things, Mr. KMp loysays: Somo method of reonomy must bo worked out. Kxory night five mag nlflcent trains leave Chicago at practically the samo time for Knnsn City. Knch carries every modern dexleo for comfort. I'qsslbly one of tho trains two certainly could care for the busUiccs. Six trains letixo Chicago Tor Omaha nightly, and five for St. I'aul. Two trains could do tho business much cheaper and much better. . . Suppose all the unnecessary train service, now forced by railroad toiupot'tlon, all ticket and freight solicitors nnd tholr offices, and all tho unnecessary duplications woro elomlnntedT Think of the saving. Suppose tho railroads wero allow ed to co-opernto? Suppose railroad groups were vstabllshcd, somewhat after tho manner of the regional reserve banks? Kaeh group of railroads could bo gov erned by n board of directors, In which the government could bo fully represented. The government could sny to each of tho Hues serving cer tain territory, "We will guarantee that jour net earnings for the next five years shall not be less thnn for the last five, and you also shall bo guaran teed six ier cent on any additions and betterments which, with our consent, may be mado on tho property. In return wo demand ono or more t-oals on ottr board and the power of absolute veto upon any act or proposed net which wo may consider disastrous to the community or otherwise im proper." Tho proposal has boon favorably roooivod by railroad managers generally and some such plan may be eventually worked out. A necessary preliminary, however, will bo the physical valuation of the roads, as found bv"tho inter state commerce commission as a basis upon which to base government guarantees of earnings and profits. There is no reason why the federal government should guarantee in terest upon inflated securities and most of the railroads are suffering from inflation rather than the low rates. The railroads now have their rate of earnings fixed for them and the amount ot service to bo rendered dietated by the federal government and the different states. This should be simplified by elimination of state control, plac ing entire control in the hands of the federal authorities. Railroading differs from the ordinary commercial busi ness. It is a natural monopoly, like the telephone and other public service institutions, which really should be owned and operated"by the government just as the postal business of the count v'y is operated. They aro not compot i tive, and competition results in economic waste and loss The six trains whore one or two would serve the purpose, and the consequent loss, exemplifies the waste of private ownership. The only way this competitive loss can be met is by increased price for service rendered which the government forbids. Being natural monopolies, tho railroad, the telephone, the telegraph and other public service institutions should be organized and operated as units, or as a group of units, for the benefit of the people by tho only power strong enough to so organize and operate them -the government. Mr. Ripley and other railroad men practically admit that private ownership and operation has resulted in fail ure with government regulation and without regulation private ownership is intolerable. How this necessary gov ernment ownership is to bo accomplished, whether gradu ally through control by federal representation upon hoards of directors or by purchase or otherwise, is one of the great problems the American people will soon be called upon to solve. Tho railroads of the country aro suffering front exploit ation at the hands of Wall street. The New Jlaven and Kock Island scandals wero but repetitions upon an exag gerated scale, of what nearly every railroad system has suffered. The common stock in most railroads represents the pro moters' and underwriters' profits in addition to their con tracting syndicates and land bonus profits.. The slightest excuse has been takon advantage of to water the securities. The building of the Milwaukee's branch to the coast was celebrated bv an unnecessary increase of $110,000,000 in securities for the people of the northwest to pay interest charges upon in the shape of higher rates. The consolida tion of the Oregon & Washington lines of the Union Pacific into the O.-W. U. & X. was the occasion of 15,000,000 of water being poured into the common stock. And these operations have been multiplied by the score over all sec tions of the country. It would be a fine scheme for government guarantees to make good all these inflated securities as a preliminary to absorption of railroads by tho government but it is need less to state that such action would be impossible, for as a proliminarv the people will demand actual valuations as based upon physical valuation as fixed by the survey now being made.

In the north h dinugeas must be taken up, planted In tubs and placed In the cellar. This Is generally true ot latitudes north of Philadelphia. The shrub known as briigitiausla should bo treated as Is the hydran gea. The briigmausla (known bo tauicnlly as Datura) Is also called thorn apple. It is a cultlMilod form ot JIuikou weed and has long bell shaped white flowers and rather coarse foliage. Don't Tilui in I'ii 1 1 As a rule shrubs should not bo trimmed in the fall.
