On the ground that the Durham and South ern railroad, owned by U. N. and J. 1 & Duke of the American Tobacco company receives (or a 10-mlle haul, 40 per cent of the Heaboard Air Linen division on through freight business, the latter railroad will be cited be- .forefore the Interstate commerce com mission to show cause why Its rates Into and out of Durham, N. C, should not be reduced. The Norfolk ft West ern railroad will also be cited to show rauxe why Its rates on coal Into Dnr hnm should not be lowerod." The Nor folk ft Western, It is charged, allows ii rents a ton to the Durham ft South Carolina' railroad, a lumber road, for haul of one mile, while It receives only 77 centa-a ton for a haul of 11 miles. The Interstate commerce Commis sion, . through Commissioner Lane, charges that the Henboard Air Line '"bought" the freight business of the American Tolacco company by al lowing Its truffle to be taken away from It at "one" 'Point by a road under a management allied with the toimcco concert. ' Commissioner Lane says: "If there Is one dollar over and ii hove the actual cost of transports Hon In the 40 per cent division whk'h the Durham ft Southern gets, It goes Into the pockets of the Dukes. It Is not a rebate given to the American Tolincco company, but confessedly is an advantage growing out of the re lation between the Dukes and the to bacco Interests, for if the Makes did not hsve the freight to route, the truffle manager of the Rea board says that no such arrangement would bavs been made.

Clore, known as the "Corn King of America," arrived In Columbia yesterday from his home in' Indiana, and will attend the second j South Atlantic States Corn exposition 'during the week, says Monday's State. He will act as one of the; judges and will deliver an address on Thursday. He will tell the farmers of the south how the farmers of the west grow corn. He expressed him self as being delighted with South Carolina. He Is of the opinion that the corn show here will be a suc cess. ; . -'-' i. "My observations," said Mr. Clore, "where these expositions and corn shows are held, in general, they are doing a great deal In building up permanent agriculture. By perma nent agriculture we mean that the farmer will Increase1 both as to his numbers of bushels per acre as well as to the quality of the crop. These expositions are educational Institu tions and if the farmers will only take advantage of, and study the exhibits, then, from a systematic standpoint, creater returns will be secured. , "If every farmer," he continued, "in the states that are eligible to en ter corn for competition at this cx position would exhibit a sat' ?le ' of corn, attend in person and note from a close comparison of the corn that he Is growing with the corn grown by farmers of other sections, he would possibly realize for the first time In his experience that he has fallen short In the production of good corn. . The thing for the farmer to do at ' that time Is to go to the man that Is grow. Ing good corn and ask him In regard to his fethods, as to his care of the soil, preparation of seed bed, the va riety of corn and cultivation. Hy adopting his methods he will be able to increase his yield." . Is a Busy Man. Mr. Clore Is a busy man and it was with difficulty that the management of the exposition persuaded him to leave his farm long enough to come down here. For 20 years straight this farmer worked quietly on his farm, studying the corn plant and Its product, the ear of corn, and when finally he had perfected what seemed to him a pretty fair type of corn he went through, his broad acres ana from the whole selected ten of the best ears that grew there, put them In a saetC and boarded a train for Chicago to attend the first National Corn exposition, which wns then In progress. The rest of the tnlo reads like a romance. The ten ears of corn won a farm In Tens for Mr. Clore, n nil some cold cash beautus. ana tin- for good measure gave him world wide publicity. ,- ;,. . Wont to Omaha. In 1908 he went ,to Omaha to ut tend the second national t-xposltlm and his 10-enr sample won so many prizes that he was forced to charier a furniture car in which to hr.n them back to Indiana. The to al value of the prizes-won by the sain 10 ears of corn was said to be $22 .0. The Inhabitants of the corn world I p gan to stretch, rub their tyes. cal'e a mass meeting and then and there decided that Mr. Clore would have to stay out' of the race for 1909 so ns to give the rest, of the corn people chance to catch up, and he did. Ilo.v ever, he was given a bigger Job. From among the 75 expert Judges assembled from all parts of the country to ce clde on the relative merits of the 57 000 ears of corn exhibited, this man Clore was chosen to be the Judge I chief of all the Judges, and he it was who dispensed the SO,000 in prlxus mid wus counted the ''fairest Judge In all the land." Dcvliiiod Position. .Novr comes the czar of Russia, wit desiring that his farmers should grow corn and better corn than they hiiv ever grown before, wrltea to Clore letter that he should cross the watc and spend a few years In tlusfia teaching them how. But Clore was busy growing more corn on his own farm and getting elected to his secoi term In the Indiana legislature, and so he sat down to his typewriter an with two lingers, picked out the let tors which spelled "turn down" to the czar. But although this corn king now being urged to run for governor of his state. Just to give his fellow furmers a elinnce to vote for him, he has consented to spare the 'time to come south and judge corn, cat corn snd talk corn to and with the furmers who visit the South Atlantic Corn ex pOMltlon on Tuesiluy, Decetnler 12, Mr, Clnre'a 19 years old son Was a exhibitor ut the Columbus National Corn exposition, and his 10- nr sain pie won the grand championship.
