down from the state capital. While at

New Mexican;
"We ore not at present making

we have heretofore made some ship-1

Kans. Hutchinson is the only really

"A condition heretofore prevailed
which made the shipping of silt from
the company's lake almost prohibitive.

Itccent:y. however, through the
state corporation commission, the
railroads were induced to make a re

in a position to shin its product at at
lower cost than consumers can secure

company now has orders for several
