Railway Rata Lsgltlatlon.
At the biennial convention of the Or
der of Railway Condui-tora recently
lield at Portland, Oregon, resolutions
worn unanimously adotel voicing their
aentlmenta aa to the effect ol propose
railway rata Irglslation on the 1,300,.
000 railroad employee, whom they in
part repreeented. Tlieee resolution
"Imlorso the attitude of , President
Itooeevelt In condemning aecret rebates
and other 1 1 legal i lira, and commend the
attitude of the lieada of American rail
waya, who, with practical unanimity,
have Joined with the president on thla
question ." They then reaped fully
joint out to congress the "Inadviea,
billty o! legialation vesting in the
handa of a com m Inn Ion power over rail
v way ratea, now lower by far In the
United Stales than in any other coun
try," becauaa aucb regulation would
"reault In litigation and confuaion and
inevitably tend to an enforced reduc
tion in ratea, irreepectlva of the quee
tlon of the ability of tha rallroada to
'.and tha reduction, eepeclally in view
of tha increaaed coat of their euppliea
and materials." They further pro
teated agalnat surh power being given
to the present Inter-Btate commiaalon
becauaa "the proposed legialation ia
not in harmony with our idea of Amer
ican jurisprudence, inaamucb aa it con
templates that a aingle body shall have
tha right .to investigate, indict, try,
condemn and then enforce its decisions
. at the cost of tha carriers, pending ap
peal, which la manifestly inequitable."
The conductors base their demand
for only such legislation, if any, as
would "secure and Insure justice and
equity and preserve equal rights to all
parties concerned," on the ground that
the low cost of transportation "is the
result of the efllciency of American
railway management and operation
which have built up the country
through constant improvement and de
velopment of territory, while at the
same time recogn'tion has been given
to the value of intelligence among em
ployes in contrast to foreign methods,
where high freight rates and lowest
wsges to employes obtain."
In pressing their claims against leg
islation adverse to their interests, they
point out the fact that "the freight
rates of this country average only two
per cent of the cost of articles to the
consumer, thus making the freight rate
so insignificant a factor in the selling
price that numerous standard articles
are sold at the same price in all parts
of tho country."

Poultry Picking.
Save the cabbage for the hens.
Leaves make good scratching ma
terial. Cracked corn will put fat on a fowl
about tho quickest of any feed.
A lot of extra cockerels are a nui
sance. Kill them off if you want
eggs.
As a rule hens fall off in egg pro
duction after they are three or four
years old, and it Is only In exceptional
cases ' that it Is advisable to keep
them.
Green cut bone or good beef scraps
will force the pullets to early matu
rity. Dampness is one of tha worst trou
bles of poultry keepers. Sunshine is

Coaaaaenlal Fertiliser.
I used tbret tons of fertilizer from
one of our largo packing companies In
1003. I used It on my corn field, put
ting It in the hill with the corn plant
er; thla was on black sandy loam. I
bad a good crop of corn, but as my
soil was In good condition I was un
able to say how much benefit the fer
tilizer was to me, if any; therefore,
In loot, I made up my mind to give
It a thorough teat as far as my farm
waa concerned.
Thla year I used five tons. This
fertilUer came from a dlffereut pack
lug company from the first lot, but
was supposed to Us the same as to Ita
chemical value. We used l.OOQ pounds
to acre, mainly, as In the first year;
still we planted strips through our
fields with 200 pounds per acre, and
In the same field we lift strips with
out sny fertiliser. The first two
months we thought we could see a
little advantage In favor of the corn
that had the fertilizer, but later on,
fcnd at busking time, we were unable
to see that the uae of the fertilizer
was of benefit to us. I. G. Freeman,

The An to Nuisance.
During an English farmers' meeting.
the chairman hud suggested that he
should Instruct his teamsters to hold
their wagons across the road whin
autos were approaching at a furious
rate. He received the following aruus
Ing communication: "As I doubt the
power of the average farm laborer to
distinguish between the Innocent and
the guilty, I offer my services. I hold
a discharge as a sergeuut from the
army, and am a trained shot .At
leaat fifty autos pass my house every
day. With an ordinary magazine rifle
I could get about thirty dally, and I
offer my trained aerrlces to the cham
ber at a charge of alx pence per head.
I should like to know to whom to for

The manager of the Wisconsin ex
perimental farm once said that he
could tell the Sundays In the calendar
by looking at his milk record, which
showed the dally yield,, because the
quantity obtained was Invariably
smaller than on a week day. "Our
men milk a little Inter ou Sunday
morning, and a little earlier at night
probably hurrying the operation, and
the cows resent the treatment by giv
ing a somewhat smaller yield of
milk." It was observed, also; apropos
of the necessity for kind and gentle
treatment of dairy cattle, that a new
hand obtained less milk from a cow5
than she would yield to a milker, not
necessarily more expert, to whom she
was accustomed.
, The Oat Crop,
The oat crop Is one that requires n
great deal of moisture throughout the
season, and the best crop Is assured
by preparing the soli so it will con
serve moisture. The reason the old
plan of seeding oats In corn stubble
falls so frequently Is because the
ground Is stirred shallow and wet ear
ly In spring time aud when a few
weeks of dry weaother come it bnkes
as hard as tho rotid aud remains In
this condition until harvest It Is not
a good plan to be In too big a hurry
about sowing oats. When the ground
has dried out so it is In good condi
tion to break then start the plow.
