Jerseyville Dispatch, The Dry WelL Last week I spent in Anson county, and "while saw something which I wish;" might be on every farm in the South. It was called a and was a device sor keeping food cool. At the edge af the back porch sat aiittle house which might have been mistaken for an); out door pantry. When the double were opened there appeared -the inside of a small house, but in stead of a floor was a round hole It: looked like a round well, the chain with a bucket at; the bot tom. A young man.

turned the crank at the side of the little house, the chain came up and at theend of it were four shelves laden with milk, butter, meat, berries, and other food stuffs. Tey were.not as cold as ice could make them, but the- butter was jfirmy the cream; sweet -and well risenbn the; milk, the meat fresh; The milk Iwas told, wiU'easilyr stay 24 hours irithe hottest To. make such a ibld storage receptacle, dig a well as if you expected to fill it with vater. Lay a good firm cement bojtom. On this pile several of the largest cylindrical tiles that- are? manufactured the well I speak of had six until the top extends as far as is convenient above the sur-Y face of the Cement thoroughly around the, outside of tiles, making the well water proof.

Fill around with earth. Builn a shelter over the tiles to shelter the opening from sun and dust. Make a structure of as many platforms for shelves, one above the other, as needed, of a size to fit easily into, the tiles. Suspend them by a chain to a pully in the roof. Wind this up by a crank at the side of the structure and catch it there with a hook, if desired.

l. The' long and short haul clauge-of the. Justice" Act passed at the last extra session: of4 iegisiature and which went into effect October 43, destroys all competitions in railroad rates and. service between points in' North, Carolina; and it creates a an'evil contrary to all Democratic principles. 2 Traffic now.

Jn instances, asv'much as' three transfers, causing delays and creasing liability to damage: At bpencer, JN. an enor mous transfer station has been built to facilitate thej movement of less carload shipments;" and practically call the Southern Rail way: traffic moving from the Western point of the State' toJthe Eastern part or vie versa moves throught this great transfer point. and its movement has thereby been made much quicker With the Long and Short; Haul in effect traffic can only move? via Spencer when the short route is made that way. This will mean increased delay to busipess "mov ing from4 East to West or vice 5.

No more switching charges at competitive points be ab sorbed as there is no more com petition.1 This Korie thing will cost doK ainuallyor illustratiortr The freight on a 60,000 pound car of fertilizer, from Wilming ton; N. to Raleigh, N. via Atlantic Coast Line and Southern Railway (the short route)'; is $66. 00 and via the Sea board Air Line Railway, $73.50 Therefore, in order to secure the cheap rate a fertilizer plant located at Wilmington, on the Sea board Air Line Railway, shipping to a merchant at Kaleigh, who has a warehouse on the Seaboard Air. Line Railway, must pay $2.

00 to have this car switched to the Atlantic Coast Line at Wilmington, and $2.00 more at Raleigh to nave swiicnea irom ooumern Railway- to Seaboard Air Line Railway which" makes $4.00 per car in excess of what it formally cost; as heretofore, this was competitive traffic and this switching was absorbed by the carriers 6. During car famines shippers at competitive points had two or more railroads to go to for cars, now you can appeal to only one road and if they can't help you--you will just have to wait your turn for a car, or ship via one of the other roads and pay a higher freight rate. 7.

railroads were, in practically every instance built by local capital to give competition which has now been destroyed. There are 34 independently owned short line railroads in North. Carolina, which represent an investment of over twelve million dollars.
