IVES REASONS
FOR DEPRESSION
I Rail Chief Declares Freight
Charges Not the Cause
of Stagnation.
FARM PRODUCTS ARE CITED
Business Depression and Lack of
Demand the Real Trouble.
Washington, D. C.?In testifying before
tlie Sennto Committee on Intorstnte
Commerce, which Is conducting
iu> Inquiry Into the railroad situation,
Julius Kruttsehnltt, chairman of the
hoard of the Southern Pacific company,
went Into went detail as to the
effect of freight rates on produce shipments,
foreign and domestic. The
main points he made In this part of
hiti testimony were:
First?That business depression Is
not th? result of high freight rates.
Second?That the real cause of stagnation
In produce shipments la lack
of market or profiteering.
lie said In part:
) 1
A widespread propaganda Is heln#
'carried on to arouse public sentiment
oga-lpst existing freight rates, whereas
the fact Is that even since the rates
have been advanced the cost of transporting
commodities Is far less than
the toll taken by the commission merchant
and the retailer for buying and
selling them.
Public Misled as to Situation
"People are misled and conclude that
high rates have stopped the movement
of a large amount of freight and that
the railways would make more money
if they would reduce the rates and
thereby revive the traffic.
There Is the strongest reason to believe
that the very great reduction in
traffic lias been due almost entirely to
general business conditions that are
world-wide In their effect, and that
would have come If there had been no
advance In freight rates.
Prices Of commodities reached their
maximum In the first half of the year
1020 and thereafter fell with great
rapidity In France, the United tftntes
and the United Kingdom. The fall in
the United States begnn In May, nud
was rapidly on Its way downgrade in
September, when the advanced rates
took effect. Nevertheless trnlllc did
not drop for at least four months.
Slump Not Caused by Higher Rates

fn prices from tho heights to which
they had boon driven by war conditions
that lias caused a stagnation of
business throughout the world.
That It is not caused by the cost of
transportation Is convincingly shown
by the fact that stoppage of buying
has caused an oversupply of ships,
hence ocean tonnage rates have been
recently at the lowest points In their
hlatftw '**' -
M,^vv?J
Notwithstanding theso low rates,
ocean tmfllc shows as great stagnation
as rail truffle, and millions of tons
of shipping here and abroad are rust
ing away In Idleness. Many commodities
would not move oven If the freight
charges on them were abolished entirely,
because producers can find no
market.
That the decline in business is not
due to prohibitive freight rates Is
shown by the following examples:
In January of this year the total
I tonnage of lines went of El Paso and
Ogden operated by the Southern Pacific
Company fell off 41 per cent.
The combined Intrastate freight tonnage
1n Arizona and Nevada declined
50 per cent although no Increase In
the Intrastate freight rates in those
States has been as yet authorized
or made.effective. This docrease embraced
grain, hay and livestock, as
well AS ores and other commodities.
COTTON UNSHIP 'ED FOR LACK
OF MARKETS
Of a Texas cotton crop of over four
million bales, 10 per cent remains unmarketed.
The average cost of rail
and water shipment from producing
point to Liverpool has been reduced
about $1,291/2 per- 100 pounds, in tho
face of which about one-half million
bales of cotton 1< ss than normal have
been exported to Liverpool. Obviously
the freight rate is not responsible for
the restricted movement.
Durlnp Sept. mber, October, and
November, 1 i?20, 45 per cent less rice,
50 per cent less canned salmon and
77 per cent less dried fruit were exported
than during the name months
of the previous year, although the
reduction In ocean rates was substantially
more than the Increase In
Intand rail rates, so that the -material
decline in the exports of these commodities
was tn the t'a^e of a less aggregate
cost of transportation. I
The Case of tho Fruit Growers
The troubles of tho California lemon
grower have attmeted much attention.
He claims he Is unahle to ship his
product because of the Increased
freight rntes. A removal of all the
recent Increase of the rate on lemons
would not help him. He has a rate by
sea through the 1'anama Canal of less
than half?48 per cent?of the rail
rate, yet his lemons are not marketed.
The average price of a cantaloupe
laid down In New York In the season
of 1020 was not quite 11 cents. As
they were retailed at about 2o cenrr..
there Is a further profit to somebody
of 14 cents per cantaloupe.
The managers of the propaganda fo:
n general reduction of freight rates
have lost sight of the fact that in October,
11)20, 1,10r?,U21 carloads of coal
were moved, being the maximum moved
In any month In the preceding two
years, although It was handled at the
advanced freight rates, and we have
| heard nothing as to coal being produced
at a loss or of the coal mine
owners going out of business because
of existing freight rates.

POULTRY AND DAIRY PROFITS
One of Very Best Ways Farmer Can
Dispose of Surplus Milk Is to
Feed It to Fowls.
The dairyman (or the farmer wlio
runs a small dairy In connection with
his farm) Is In an enviable position
to make the biggest proportionate
profits from a flock of poultry. One
reason for tills Is that the best foods
as milk producers are also excellent
egg producers. For Instance, clover,
alfalfa, middlings, rye, etc., are all
palatable and beneficial to cows and
chicks alike?and so Is an occasional
mess of finely chopped silage.
Furthermore, the cows furnish one
of the best of foods for laying hens,
for milk is a valuable egg food In any
form. One of the very best ways any
farmer can dispose of surplus milk
with profit Is to feed It to the hens,
or to growing young stock. It furnishes
Just the materials needed
for improving growth of eggs?and does
It In a palatable, easily digested form
?hence it is an exceedingly valuable
product as an adjunct to the grain
ration, which often lacks essential

Waste Products or Impurities Ca
Skin Disorders and
How S. S. S. Clears the
Your system is continually taking
in nutrition and throwing off waste
products. This process goes on all
during life. But, sometimes the organs
do not properly function and
these waste products, instead of passing
out through the pores of the skin,
through the kidneys and through the
alimentary canal, are absorbed in the
blood. Then the blood becomes poisoned,
and cannot properly nourish the
system,
111 health sets in. You may lose
your strength and vitality; or you
may have rheumatic pains in the muscles
and joints; or you may be troubled
with bad boils, sores or some
other skin eruptions. All because of
the poisonous waste products in the
blood. Nature now needs help. She
has done her best but is failing. A
