Gross earnings indicate volume of freight movement and travel. Net income shows t~ degree of prosperity of railroads themselves. It l» highly important that the carriers be prosperous in order to attact new 1money to create ne"" facilities for moving i'llcreased traffic which results from increasing populations. Volume of traffic has been and continues exceedingly large which indicates pl'Osperity in production and marketing·, while the prompt delivery which can now be relied upan i~ evidence of increased ef!'iciency in operation. The margin between profit and loss for railroads is so slight that any unwise rate policy can easily cripple the dividend paying power of a railroad and thus prevent it from securing capital for needed extensions and improvements. The loss to shippers and travelers from such a policy is much greater than would ever be occasioned by the granting of adequate rates. KNOW llJf4AT 'tOU WANT, MR.

During the Woo-1<:1 War, he served as captain in the Remount Service of the American Expeditionary forces in F1·ance whel'e he commanded the 340th Fjeld ~mount Squadron. In the opinioo of Dean Oharles F. Curtiss of the <School of AgJ.·iculture of the Iowa State Colleg~e, Professor Ilceler is one of the most capable men that the school has ever had on its teaching staff. Professor Ikeler also received very strong recommendations from Pre·sident R. S. Fearson of Iowa' State College Professor C. W. Gay head of the Dep~rtment of A'll:imal Husbandry at the same instituti()Jl Professor A. Bohstedt, chief of t~ Department o.f Animal Husbandry of the Ohio Experiment Station, and William H.

One frosty mornit~g he followed his father out to the street where the car had been parked all night. After several attempts at starting, the car gave several wheezes and a cough or two, and several minutes were consumed before the engine.began to run smooth ly. The boy took it all in and finally he said; Father, it almost had the croup didn't it? The youngster wasn't far wrong at that when we come to think of it. Weather, especially cold weather, is about as bad for cars as it is for croupy boys. Humans and cars are much alike in that they both need good shelter in bad weather.

DO YOU ALWAYS TRADE AT HOME Do you often bemoan the fact that the buying public o.f you locality is g-oing to other towns to trade, or is sending away to some large city, store or mail-order house for the goods that you could furnish them ? Didn't one of these same clerks g-o to the head man of the Buy-At..J:Iome Club (a banker) with a line of calendars, and didn't this banker assure him that they would not buy for at least six months? And didn't this self-same banker buy his caletndars from an outside man the very next day? Didn't the secretary of this club get prices on certain advertising matters to use for a celebration which was to be held and didn't he immed iately order the goods from an outside party, and pay just a little higher price for the same goods? didn't the son of the president buy classbuttons from a catalog house? Didn't a certain man's employer, with whom he had been working for ten years, buy his supply of calendars from an out-of-town man, when 1 this employee had his calendar grip open at his employer's elbow?

Don't you1· friends say, "They sure have a bette1· selectioQ. of clothes in R. W."? And when they say that, what do you say? Do you say, "I guess you can, our merchants are not quite up to the mark"; or do you say, "Stick to the home to.wn~suggest improvements if things are WI'ong-be patriotic"? Well, I wonder! Do you know that the big finance man of a Buy-At-Home Club put out a large amount of advertising to induce the farmet· to trade at home, and bought this advertising out of town, when there were three printing establishments located in his own home town? Do you know that the banks of a certain town that had a Buy-At-Home Club opened their doors one hour earlier in the morning and closed one hour earlier in the afternoon for the accommodation of the farmers who seldom reached town until the afternoon'? Outside Buying Is Found Out If you don't know, you ought to, that when you, your wife, or any of your family buys anything out O!f town other people know it. You must realize that the freight man is not quite totally blind, deaf and dumb. What does he say when you remark that there is a pile of freight ooming into your little town? I'll tell you. He s.ays, "Yes, you bet there is, but there's a hell of a lot of it that goes to the private houses, and it goes to the business men's houses, too." How do you like that ? Then you know the mailman can talk also. He -does so. So does the express man. You bet they do. Why ~houldn't they ..ten? Isn't it a good JOke that the Home Boosters" should be buying outside?

I UTAH EGGS BRING FANCY PRICES ON OPEN MARKET A particularly favorruble fall and winter setasoo approaches for Utah poultry producers, is the forecast of the Utah Poultry Producers co<><perative, a statewide producel's' marketing o1rganization operating in connec1lion with the state farm bureau. The as;;.ociation believes the fall will see producers receiving a price at least as good as the price enjoyed last year. Production for Utah is expected to be heavier but it is warned this ' doesn't mean ' a lower price, for ' Utah Is producing quality eggs am.d poultrJwhich are commanding top pl·ices regardless of figures paid for common grades. The industry as a whole will be stimulated by feed cost reductions, which .at present seem likely. Utah poultt·yme:n this year have a larger number of spring pullets than ever before and many already have commenced laying. This coupled With a cl'eluctancy to cull older hens to make room for the replacement stock, is boosting producti()Jl steadily and many believe a new record is imminent.

What the Calif01rnia producers cannot understand, Mr. Mickielsen says, 1 is why Utah O'btains better prices for he1· eggs than does California. During his trip he visited the president of a California producing organization, an-d while conversing with him this question came up. "What percentage of extras do you get in your eggs?" Mr. Mickelsen asked. (Extras is the trade designated for the extra fine quality eggs.) T-he Californian replied, "Aibout thirty percent." "Then there's the differeru:e," was the Utahn's answer. "Whenever l doo't get sixty to eighty pet' cent ex• tras in my shipment I am disappoint· ed and look into the matber without delay."
