"I wish I could show you some of the

Tolstoy as a Bootmaker.
Many who have never read a line of
Tolstoy know that the count, with hia
peculiar notions of work, makes his
own boots. Aylraer Maude In his lat
est installment of Tolstoy's biography,
Just published, quotes an Incident in
that connection:
"As to the boots Tolstoy made, I
asked a man to whom he had given a
pair and who had worn them whether
they were well made. 'Couldn't be
worse was his reply."
"I suspect," adds Mr. Maude, and
the average reader will nod assent,
"that Tolstoy's bootmaklng was of
more value as a spiritual sedative
than it was as a contribution to the
solution of the economic problem."

STOCK
WATER TANK FOR WINTER.
Concrete Trough Eliminating Neces
sity of Stock Drinking Ice Water.
In tho long cold months of winter
the fanner is often annoyed by the
outdoor water tank or trough freoa
ing; perhaps bursting same and at
least causing the stock to drink water
that is nearly ice water, which can
not be beneficial to them.
As per illustration this trouble con
bo overconio with but slight expense
by the construction of u concrete
tank with the heater molded as a, part
of the some.
Tho heater boing molded with the
tank, is always ready for use at any
Showing Heating Pipe,
time and can be employed whenever
needed.
Tho outside dimensions of tank as
illustrated are eight feet eight Inches
long, thrco feet high and three feet
eight inches wide; the walls are four
inches thick, giving tho Inside dimen
sions of eight feet long, three feet
wide nt the top and two feet six
inches wide at the bottom, with a
depth of 20 inches. This will be am
ple for tho ordinary farm and can bo
changed to suit your need?.
The chimney is molded 12 inches
square and four feet high. This can
be increased if so desired.
For the outside mold six boards ten
Inches wido and eight feet eight Inchos
long, fastened together, three of each,
with cleats, make the two sides. Tho
end where tho firebox is located Is
made of three ten-inch boards three
feet ten inches long and nailed to
the two sides at the end.
For the firebox make a box exactly
18 Inches wide, 12 inches high and 24
inches long. Place tnis at the one
end abutting against the side.
For the chimney make n box 12
inches square and four feet long.
Have this open on one sido, sot at
the one end In center, and then with
six ten-inch boards 17 Inches long fin
ish up this end by nailing the ends of
sides to open side of chlmneybox
mold.
For the inside of tank cut two ten
inch boards eight feet long, fasten
two of each together with cleats on
Inside; now cut four ten-inch boards
exactly two feet ten inches long, fast
en two of each together with cleats.
At one side of each measure is ex
actly three inchos from each end and
WATEWTANIt
The Finished Tank,
draw a line from that to the upper
corner, cutting along this line.
This makes the ends in a level or
wedge shape two feet ten inches
wide at the top and two feet four
Inches wide at the bottom. These
are nailed inside the two Bides, and
If you havo ueed one-inch lumbor you
have the correct width, three feet
wide at top and two feet six inches at
the bottom.
In constructing the tank lay a
foundation of small stone covered
with concrete grout This should be
from four Inches to six lnchce, depend
ing on the soil. Then set your mold
upon this, leaving out the core form
at place.
Now fill this with concrete, tamped
In well to a depth of six inches. Then
put your flue In place; this can bo
common six-inch stovepipe and extend
to the end of tank and then up to the
end of chimney, as shown in sectional
view.
After you have this in place cover
with concrete to tho top of same or
more, about seven inches thick; then
upon this lay your re-enforcing rods.
After re-enforcing rods axe in place
fill with concrete until your depth of
bottom Is exactly 12 Inches from the
foundation. This gives the bottom
about firebox a thickness of four inch
es, which is ample, nnd for usual pur
poses three inches would do.
Place the inside form of core in
position and fill to the top with con
crete and allow to stand In tho form?
until it begins to harden.

FINANCE.
In tho history of tho Erlo nnd
more thnn any other American lino
tho Erlo hnB a history tho reor
ganization of 1895 stands ns a divid
ing lino between tho now nnd tho old.
Tho "old" wns tho tlmo of Jay Gould
and .11 in Fisko ct nl who used to
carry tho offices of tho rond around
in their pockets, nnd of old Dan
Drew, whoso printing-presses used
to bo run overtime turning out un
counted renins of stock. Tho "new"
is tho time of tho sober operation of
tho company by n group of highly
efficient traffic men, handicapped, it
Is truo, by their legacy of misman
agement nnd overcapitalization, but
striving with nil tho power that is In
them to ranko their great property
what It ought to be.
When tho present management
enmo in, a few years nfter the reor
ganization, it was a tremendous task
with which they found themselves
faced. On Its record, people had no
fnith in tho Erie. Its credit was
gone. Its equipment nnd its road
bod were In lamentable condition.
Worse thnn that tho now manage
ment soon enough came to find how
difficult was economical operation of
n line whose rails had been laid nlong
the route offering the largest sub
scriptions instend of tho least grndo
resistance. To build tho necessary
cut-offs, and to eliminate the killing
grndes on this up-hill and down
dale route was possible enough, hut
required money lots of It. That the
company did not have and could not
borrow. Capitalization nnd capital
are two mighty different things.
Tho company hnd plenty of the form
er, but lack of tho latter on more
than one occasion during those early
years of the reorganization came per
ilously near sending the whole prop
erty back Into bankruptcy.
As lately as only three years ago,
indeed, lack of working capital came
near bringing to naught all that the
now management has done for the
property and throwing it into receiv
er's hands. The panic hit the Erie
particularly hard. Gross earnings
foil off tremendously while expenses
increased. Between that upper and
nether millstone, net revenues, which
had been lfi,171,000 in 1907, fell
off to $10,277,000 in 1908. With a
big Issue of short-term notes coming
due, it looked very squally for a time.
But at the very moment of danger,
strong financial interests stepped in
and provided the necessary cash.
How well justified they were In
their Judgment that tho road ought
to bo pulled through is seen in the
remarkable earnings shown since
that time. Probably there is not
another road in the country that can
show so complete a right-about-face
in condition and outlook during the
past couple of years as can tho Erie.
For tho year ending June, 1908,
there had been a deficit of $2,200,
000. During tho next twelve months
gross earnings were so increased and
expenses were so cut down that in
stead of a deficit the road had a sur
plus of $2,560,000. And during the
next flscnl year, ending June, 1910,
the recovery was carried still furth
er. Gross earnings reached the sur
prising total of $54,8GG,000, while
operating expenses were only very
slightly increased. The result was
that total net income exceeded twen
ty million dollars as against less than
twelve million in 1908, and that the
year's operations ended in tho addi
tion to surplus of the tidy sum of
$5,009,457.
By such a demonstration of earn
ing power during a time when all
was by no means sunshino for the
other roads, the question is squarely
raised as to whether the Erie has
not turned a corner and entered a
new phase in its existence. Handi
capped, it is true, have been its man
agers by tho lack of working capital,
but by stripping clean every bone
nnd making every dollar do one hun
dred cents' worth of work, that diffi
culty has been largely overcome and
improvements effected which, under
the circumstances, are little short of
marvelous. Judging from the way
earnings have been running during
the past few years, tho back of the
difficulty has been broken, and what
has been done for tho property is
about to boar fruit.
In deciding whether or not that is
so, there must be continually kept in
mind the fact that there are, so to
speak, two Eries the physical Erie,
whoso strides forward during the
past couple of years are recognized
throughout tho railroad world; and
the financial Erie, which still re
mains a serious handicap to every
member of the operating staff from
tho top to tho bottom.
Considering first tho physical Erie,
n glance at what has been done dur
ing tho past few years, In tho way
of building cut-offs and bringing
about grade reductions, Is all that is
necessary to see how allvo tho man
agement Is to the necessity of strik
ing at tho very root of the difficulty
by which they havo been all along
besot. Competition on even terms
with such roads as Now York Central
and Lehigh Valley, It was realized
was impossible ns long ns such
grndes ns existed nt several places on
the main lino remained to block
traffic and lncreaso expenses. On tho
direct lino from New York to Buf
falo some of these grades ran as
high ns one and one-hnlf per cont.
Tho most powerful Mallet engines
ever built were necessary to hnul
coal-trains over tho hills nt Port
Jervls and Susquehanna, nnd nt that
less than fifty cars per train could
bo hnndled. To eliminate these
grades, or at least to reduce them to
somthlng like an equality with
grndes on competitive lines, was a
tremendous undertaking, but ono
which tho management realized from
tho start was tho sino qua non for
successful oporatlon of tho property.
Tho work, therefore, was undertaken
with a will; and, whllo much still re
mains to bo done, some really re
markable results havo already been
achieved.
Most important of theso works,
perhaps, is the Guymard cut-off,
which leaves tho main line halfway
between Mlddlotown nnd Port Jervls
nnd reaches tho Ncwburg branch at
Highland Mills. Piercing tho moun
tains at ono point with a mile-long
tunnel, and built nccordlng to the
most modern ideas, this pleco of
double-track rond Is making a big
difference In Erlo's oporntions. East
bound its grndo is 2.10 ns against
1.2 G on tho main line; westbound
it is 1.10 ns ngalnst n former grnuo
of 1.12 per cent. As a result of this
grndo reduction tho erstbound train
load has been Increased from 2,000
tons to 3,720 tons, nnd tho, west
bound trainload from 1,000 tons to
1,500 tons. To put It differently,
where tho former limit was fifty enrs
to a train, qighty-llvo and ninety
enr trains nro now possible.
Tho snmo sort of thing has been
accomplished by tho building of tho
Genesee cut-off out in tho western
part of tho State, where tho so-called
Cuba Hill Summit nnd the Tip Top,
long an effective bar to economical
operation, havo been clltnlnntcd.
Study of the figures here ngnln bIiowb
how tho cutting 'out of theso impos
sible grndes hns Jumped tho train
load. By tho completion of tills bit
of line, Indeed, a big step forward
is made In tho main Erie project for
a low-grado lino across the State and,
eventually, Into Chicago.
Mention of tho big Improvement
works accomplished during tho past
few years is hound to include the cut
through Bergen Hill, Just outsldu of
Jersey City, by which tcrmlnnl facili
ties have been so immensely im
proved. Whereas formerly both the
irelght and passenger traffic of the
entire system had to be put through
the tunnel, with tho Inevitable result
of frequont congestion, passenger
traffic now goes through the open
lit. That leaves the tunnel for
freight traffic and hns already made
a very great difference in the cost of
handling business at tho terminal.
By reason of the putting into op
eration of these various improve
ments, the Erie has lately been show
ing some operating results necessitat
ing a good deal of revision of ideas
tanned during the old days of waste
and inefficiency. The way in which
tho trainload (the average number
of tons of freight in each train) has
been increasing is perhaps the plain
est oviuenco ol how tlie new im
provements are affecting operation.
r'Ue years ago, Erie's traiuioad was
412 tons. For the year ending June,
i'JoU, it was 4ti'J tons, and tor last
year 4y5 tons greater than Dela
ware and Hudson's or New ork Cen
tral's trainload and almost up to the
standard set by Lehigh Valley and j
Lackawanna. When it is considered
how much less Erie's traffic density
is than that ol these other roads, this
improvement is all the more remark
able. There seems to be good
ground tor the management's belief
that eventually Erie will bo bringing
o,uu0-ton trains unbroken from its
western terminus into Jersey City.
Another important result of the
physical improvements effected is the
greater punctuality of trains, both
passenger and freight. The comic
paptjrs used to give a lot of space to
the Erie commuter and his troubles,
but all that is a thing of the past
the Public Service records show a
smaller percentage of delayed trains
on tnat road than on any other com
.ng into Jersey City. Last June, of
me two hundred and eighty-five fast
ireights operated, Just four failed to
.uake connections or arrive on time.
Eiiicieucy of operation of that sort is
nat accounts for such a fact as that
the Erie is handling over three-quarters
of the fruit traffic between New
iork and Chicago. Such business
exacts superior service.
In a number of other ways it might
be shown how the money which has
ueeu spent on Erie during the past
few years has resulted In increased
efficiency of operation but enough has
been said to suggest tho solid charac
ter of the improvement which has
neon going on. By every one who
has studied tho property it is rec
ognized and admitted. Regarding the
future of Erie there Is no question,
from a traffic standpoint, of the abil
ity of the present management to
build the road up to a high state of
efficiency. The question, if there Is
any, is strictly as to the money side
of tho proposition.
Admitting that with credit not of
the best, and with but a slender sur
plus, Erie is nearing the time when
heavy obligations fall due, it is hard
to see any real ground for uneasiness.
Early In i908 when tho road was
very much in need of money, capital
to finance its requirements was forth
coming even in spite of tho deplor
able state of earnings. Since then,
as has been shown, conditions have
entiroly changed, earnings not only
having been largely Increased, but nn
efficiency of operation developed
which speaks well of tho road's fut
ure earning power. If, when things
were as black as they wero in 1908,
tho road was nblo to finance its re
quirements, how much better able
will It be, under present conditions,
to raise whatever money it may need.
And as to tho longer-range view,
it Is to bo noted that completion of
tho Guymard and Genesee cut-offs
and of the Bergen cut, disposes pret
ty well of those undertakings which
havo been mnking such heavy de
mands on Erie's available capital sup
ply. A good deal of money could
still be profitably spent on the prop
erty, but as It stands now the plant
is of sufficient capacity and in good
enough working order to cnnblo It to
work along for a good whllo without
moro monoy being spent on it.
The future seems to bo lnrgoly a
question of the maintenance of earn
ings. If tho Erie can go on for a
whllo earning nt tho present rate,
there Is no reason why tho property
should not bo developed to n higher
and higher stato of efficiency. To
get tho most out of tho road as it
stnnds, n good deal of money will
havo continually to be spent on It,
but present earnings nro sufficient to
take care of thnt And, of course,
with things ns they aro going nlong
now, tho road's credit Ib getting hot
ter all the time.
Will earnings continue nt tho pres
ent rnto? That depends largely on
the general stato of business. But
It depends, too, on tho solidity of tho
progress which tho rond has made.
With its greatly increased efficiency
of oporatlon, Erlo can to-day cam a
great deal more net out of a given
amount of gross than It could havo
earned beforo f nor wns turned.
