TIIC S.TORY is told that at some coniention
theie was a loll tall of stairs, and a dele
gite Ironi each was required lo tell of the
chief productions and advantages of his
state. The delegate from the Dakota painted a
glowing plctuic ol the waiing wheat fields
stretching for mile alter mile, and with an
abundant harvest, making glad the heart uf the
hajpy farmtr 'ihe tahloinlan told how small
wrre Ihe riches of the gold mines of his state
as compared with the richei of its soil; before
our longing ejes ou eau apjiear the vlne.iards
and the ounce groves, the roses blo-oming be
neath the glorious summer sun of winter dais,
and In jour heart you earned for a home in
such a land (.dorado came, with its story n(
rugged mountains bursting with untold mini rat
wealth. In the long list of states each claimed
a rare combination of natural icsourccs and ad
vantages until Massachusetts was leached Ihe
speaker from that state said: "I have hratd with
great pleasure of the wheat fields of the west,
of the fair Pacific coast land that flows wirh
milk and honey, of the iron and coal of Tmn.
sylvania, and of the south with every advantage
which natuie could bestow upon that favored
land, and 1 rome to tell ou that in my state
we have nunc of these adiantages, but with us
the thief product is brains."
And he was right. It has been said that in
phnting corn the rilgnm Fathers had to drill
holes In the rock and in each hole diop a her
ring as fertilizing agent But on that roik
bound soil the people of that state have built a
civilization which the south may well stud.i
With limited agricultural possibilities, bu.ving
fiom the south their cotton, fiom Penncylvania
their lion, from Maryland and Virginia their coal,
from Georgia their pine, and trom the west their
foodstuffs, and evm itnpoitlng from Canada and
l.urope their mill operatives, they haie estab
lished on this artificial found it Ion an Industrial
sttucture which demands our admiration Their
ihlef product mult have been brains, or else
they could neier have accomplished so minli;
and never has Ihe value of such a pioduct been
more clearly demonrtrated than in Massachu
setts. With a population of only S.'JOn.fM in
1S10, and on this artificial foundation ol Import
ed law materials and foodstuff, Massachusetts
in 159H had an Industrial business which emplojej
a capital of $0,000,000, with a product of $5S,
eon.ooo, analnst a tolal capital Invested in manti
facturing in the same sear in the fourteen south
em states from Marland to Texas, of $iT57,nnO,niV),
with a rrnduct of 71,OM,ooo In other words,
the 2,230,000 people in Massachusetts took our
cotton, our lumber, our iron and the west's rood,
itutfi, and produced lJ.non.onn more of manu
factured goods than we pi educed in the south.

Shall It be taid that in the creation of busi

must reit our schools, our churches and eiery
thli.tr else that combines to m.ke life worth liv

RAILROAD MATHEMATICS.
Increase of Cars to Train Load tho
Key to Fiofits.
Call Hoiey in inslees
Ralltoadlng, In Its beginning and
throughout its exubeiant outh, was
a business which made use of nerve,
a big head for pi. inning and plotting,
and a constant slnp-dash application,
after which the returns were pietty
sure. Nowadas it is all as sophisti
cated as a cash register. A successful
year Indicates that nomo one has
taken enormous pains to study the
lUures and that the icsillt of his dill
genie, has be -n a pretty accurate
knowledge of the clars of business that
would pay.
A lallroad can lea freight nnd pas
sengers for a living. The managing
head. In older to dliect the business
ptolltably, must know what it costs
hlin to provide the scrv Ice for w hlch
the public pays. Comon sense and the
Instinct of self-piesi .-atlon demand
th,s course at once, but they aie not
ro forward In suggesting what is to
be done first. How can one come at
such a knowledge'.' It costs so much
annually to maintain the tiack and
the terminals so much to pay the
snlarles of the tialn crews, jaidmen,
cleiks, officials and a law depart
ment, too. How much, then, will it
cost to cany six carloads of potatoes
one hundied and fifty miles out on the
main lino to Herryville'.' The problem
looks Ilk" one by which cunning ped
agogues advise little boys that It is
Impracticable to add hens and geese
together in the same rum, or useless
to seek to know the cont of seven and
seven-eighths pounds of butter In a
catch question where you aio told only
the pi Ice per pound of laid. The dif
ference is that the railroad figures do
show a glimmer of r-t-nsc. Rut this
proves to bo a wlll-n-tlie-wisp leading
nowheie. Nothing can be done with
them until you have .elaiighteieil most
of the items wholesale, nnd have ar
bltraarlly selected a few promising
ones with which to do huslness.
Let us say the line can led, In the
ear 1VO, Sii.noo.OOO tons of ft eight a
dlstanro of olio mile, the work has,
been measured, with this lesiilt, which
stands on tho bonks as oO.C'O.ooo "ton
miles." The pay for dolrg the work
me.isuied also, aveiaged four mills to
a ton mile, so that the total revenue
from the fi eight business for that year
amounted to $.'00,000. The expense la
to be measured by a unit which Is
called the "train mile." in this in
stance It Is the trelght train mile. The
Immedlato cost of running a fi eight
train a mile can be computed leadlly,
and It includes: Cost of tuel for the
locomotive, and wages of an engineer,
a fireman, a conductor, a couple of
brakemen, and a flagman. The number
of cars may be anything you plense so
far as these expenses aio concerned,
for It will not nffect them much. In
the present case, say that the average
tralnload was 400 tons, a large, but n
iciund flgtlie. Theiefote the number
of train miles that had to bo run to
earn the J:'00.000 was 123,000. Train
mile cost vi as reckoned at 75 cents.
Therefore, we have: Expenses, J9J.750
profit, ?10ii,2;n. Not the actual profit,
to be suie, but wo get on better by
keeplnu; the geese separate from tho
hens, and the figures have their use.
Take the companies report for tho
folouing vear. inoo. The same work
was done, let us say, In r.0,000,000 ton
miles. The aveingo tralnload, how
ever, was nOO tons. No wonder the
road tound itself with more- money
to divide than It had In the ear 1VX.
For, by Incieaslng the tralnload tho
number of tialn miles was lessened,
and tialn expenses weie Inevitably
reduced to tho tune of neaily $19,000.
Thf gross lovenuo lemalned, of course,
the same.
The llguies are disgracefully rough,
but they tell the truth. They shout It
thtnugh a megaphone. Tha way to
mako money Is to Inn case In train
load. A well-known technical w liter
In Wall stieet calls this "tho touch
stone of successful or economical rail
roading." To save train miles is to
save money diop by diop, to save lt
with n suie piomlso of drops enough"
In all to make an ocean.

World Changes Contemporaneou
with Solar Activities.
Irom Everjbodj'a Magajine.
it has been found that tho earth'i
magnetic and eleetilcal conditions, an
well ns teirestilal weather effects,
closely synchronize with visible solar
manifestations. Here is the most in
teresting yet most perplexing problem
In the study of the sun: and within
this Is hound up knowledge that may
some day open wide an ample page of
Inestimable benetlt to man. What
bonds theie are between earth and
sun, aside from the matter of light and
heat, may some time cleat ly be learned
and the probability that periodic va
riations of weather are due to these
solar influences Is something that will
be of vast value to understand Di
vining, as it Is vulgaily understood. Is
merely the duping of fools by charla
tans. Rut what If divining be put
mon the plane of science " Today Sir
Norman Lockyer, the British astronn
mer, has practically demonstrated that
certain world changes are simultane
ous with ceitaln solar activities By
slmplo processes he Is able vlrtualy
to forecast the famine and the flood
His deductions nro strong and clear
and hy no means is any condition tak
en for granted. Some time ago he was
led Into this study tiy noting the co
incidence that sun-spot maximum and
sun-spot minimum Intervals of great
est and least activity In the solar body
worn accompanied bv corresponding
dlffeiences in the Indian rainfall. A
scrutiny of the famine commission re
porls for the last half centuiy showed
him that tho famines that h ive devas
tated India during that peilod have
occutred.n tho Intervals between these
two pulses of rainfall. In addition,
extieino low water In the Nile has oc
curred at tho same peilods.
