It is a matter for general con gratulation that what is known as the “hours of service law for railroad employes” has been up held. This law, which was en acted by Congress four years a- go, provides that no trainman shall be required or allowed to remain on duty for longer than 16 consecutive hours, and also fixes the time within which any telegraph operator may be steadi ly employed. Its constitutionali ty was challenged on the ground thatit applied to interstate com merce, over which the power of Congress does not extend, but, the court unanimously declined to admit the pertinence of this objection, and the railroads will consequently be required to com ply with the mandate of the law. They showed little sense and did themselves no credit in at tempting to evate it. Certainly, in view of the nature of his duties and of how important it is to the public that they should be effici ently discharged, 16 hours at a' stretch is as much as should be required from any man whose activities relate to the actual run ning of the cars, and it is sur prising that the railroads should ever have undertaken to chal lenge such a reasonable proposi tion. The enactment of the Jaw lim iting the hours of service was prompted by the occurence of an accident attended with much loss of life in the vicinity of Washing ton, which was shown to have been due to the exhaustion of an employe from overwork. Health and the Resorts. . Omaha Bee. It is generally conceded that the chief reason why health re sorts are beneficial to health is that people who go to them follow a certain prescribed code of rules calculated to restore them and them in good physical condition. If they would observe the same system of living at their homes they probably would not have to go to resorts. As a rule the re sorts are in the same latitude and altitude as their resident places and differ in no material respect except that their managers have reduced to a science the method of daily living end are able to get people to adopt their methods. This is saying nothing against tlie resorts, nor that they are not needful and helpful places. They are, because people will not do without them. A busy man for instance so long as he stays at home, where he is thrown in daily contact with his business is go ing to pursue the same old- rou- tinue each day and if he is suf fering from nervous disorder, of course he is not likely to make much improvement. He has to be removed from'his work before he will do what is necessary to build him up. The resort is the city of refuge to him. He goes there, follows out a certain rou tine for a few days or weeks and returns all sound and ready for another tug at business. Encoofagiotg lacrMsed Acreage.' Atlanta, Ga., June 3.-One of the reasons which have been giv en by President Finley,, of the Southern Railway Company, for advocating the adoption by the farmers of the South of methods that will tend to ir crease the ave- erage production of cotton per acre is that it is of the highest importance that ti ie South should preserve the great economic ad~ 'vantage which it enjoys by rea son of having a substantial mon opoly of the production of the cotton supply of the world. If i this advantage is to .be preserved, I foreign manufacturers must not I be driven to encourage cotton growing in other countries by the failure of Amijrican planters I to produce an adequate supply. ' Thus far, efforts to increase cot ton production outHde of the U- nited States have not met with great ^success, but there are pos sibilities in that direction in Afri ca, .Southern Asia Australia. That cotton production might success fully be carried o i in some parts of Australia is indicated by the following extract from a report from United States Vice-Consul General Henry D Baker, at Auk- land, New Zealand: “Cotton growing, as an ad junct to fanning in suitable dis tricts in Q^ueenland, especially near the town of Ipswich, ap pears to be making some prog ress, and to be profitable, yield ing $45 to $85 per acre, seed, and $75 to $100 per a;;re, ginned, for upland cotton, ai d. more for sea island. A bonus is given to the grower by the Commonwealth Government to tlie extent of 10 per cent on the invoice value. The Queensland Department of Agriculture is m.iking strong ef forts to induce farmers to plant larger areas, particularly in the drier areas, wh'jre grain crops are uncertain. “The only cotton mills in Aus tralia are situated at Ipswich- Queensland. I hey were con structed some 14 years ago, but little work was done until 1906, when 57,120 pou nds of raw cot ton were put through. This was increased to 85 0(W pounds in 1908. The mills were then puiJ- chased by a Sydney firm, which made some much needed improve ments. and who have kept them working ever siBce/^ ' We offer One Hundred Dollars Reward foranyc^eof Catarrh that; eartpot P© cured by Hall’s Catar h Cure.
