RAILROADS PROSPERING. Show a Healthy Increase In Earnings In Geergla at Well aa la North Carolina. Despite the panic, -ailroads made Money in Georgia as well aa in North Carolina' The net earnings of the fouf largest railroads in Georgia how a healthy increase during the period of depression. U. S. Judge Speer has sent on order enjoining the railroads from increasing their freight rates in Georgia. The four largest railroads ia Georgia have become richer by put tine down wa?es of their emnlores. using the financial depression of last fall and winter as an excuse. It de velops that the n?t earnings of the Southern Railwaj, the Central of Georgia Kailroau, the Ueorgia Kail road and Banking Company and the Western and Atlant'c, show substan tial increases over the net earnings for the corresponding periods of the previous year. And the net increases are shown, despite the alleged drastic anti-railroad legislation and passenger rate reductions. The additional wealth has been accumulited during the yery time the railroads themselves have been howling calamity, and telling the people that good govern, meut ami fair play were about to visit wreck and rui'i upon all their properties. The additional wealth has been ac cumulated by the railroads while they have been crying "hard times" to cut the salaries of their salaried men and to triug poverty to the door of their employes by reducing wages. i'ause Little Surprise. The people of Georgia are gratifi ed because the true facts should have an important bearing upon the pres ent move of railroads to increase the inter-state rates on b:ead stuffs, etc. The net earnings of the railroads, it is argued, furnish substantial reas ons why the proposed increases are not justified, aud it is believed they will have much to do with prevent ing the extortion. (alniu Xet l.arulus. The net earuingsof the Southern railway f?r the month of April 1908 show an increase of $339,000 over the net earnings for the correspond ing month of 1907. The net earnings of the Southern for the mouth of May, this year, as compared with the same month of the previous year, show an inscrease of $90,000. The Georgia railroad, the old re Hable Georgia railroad, whose passeng er rates were reduced to 2 1-3 cents per mile, netted a substantial in crease for the months of January, Februury, March and April of 1908, as compared with the same four months of 1907. To be more exact, the Did Reliable Georgia, during this period, earned $7,750 more. Aud the Western and Atlantic railroad, the state property, operated by the Nashville, Chattanooga aud St. Louis railroad, a Milton Smith property, earned for the period ex tending" from July, 1907, to May 1908, inclusive, $41,432.45 more than for the same period of the pre. yious year. The Western and At lantic is a 3-cent road- in the two cent passeug.T class. Little wonder that Western and Atlantic abandoned a proposed cut in its employes' salaries rather than make a detailed showing of its earn ings to the railroad commission. The Central railroad, onepf the leaders of the calamity chorus, net ted $55,180.15 more for the year eoverel by the panic than for the previous year. Have a Care tor the Heast of Burden. Nothing ii more important to farmers aud wagoners during this season of hot weather than the prop er care or their team. It is an easy matter to over-drive or over-work a horse now. Teams should hare plenty of water and should not be left to stand in the sun. They are better moving along at work than standing still in the blisteribg sun. All horses and mules that work hard through days like these, whether to plow, wagon or buggy, should have water after supper. One who has not tried it will be surprised to see how, much water a horse will drink at night after he has finished his supper. The ideal plan is to let horses and mules have access to water all through the night, but where that is not practi cable they ouh" ti te led to water about 9 o'clock. It takes only a short while to do it, and the time is well paid for in the comfort of the animals. Scotland Neck Common wealth.
