The following exercises will surely strengthen the muscles of the stomach and make you feel more comfortable after your breast stroke exercise: 1. Lie flat on the floor. Raise the left leg bending the knee until the leg is at right angles. Then lower the leg without bending the knee. Alter nate movements of legs, taking first the right and then the left leg. Do this about five times with each leg twenty. 2. Now raise BOTH legs and do this from ten to twenty times. 3. Control your breathing. Inhale slowly through the nose and exhale through the mouth. 4. Stand up and continue the breathing exercise from three to five minutes. I cannot impress upon you too much the immense value of the, proper breathing either for its own sake or in conjunction with swim ming. O course, you understand that all of these exercises are to be done in the one-piece suit. Your body must be free and it cannot be if you wear many of the senseless garments with which we humans are afflicted. TOMORROW: The leg stroke will be described so that you may make it with ease. This is the next neces sary stroke for you to know. And, knowing this and the breast stroke, your training is well under way.

When passenger train No. 9 arrived at its usual time, half an hour after noon, it was found that the airbrakes were out of order and the train was held an hour and four minutes at the car shops while the necessary repairs were being made. During this time the passengers were entertaining themselves by walking up and down between their train and strings of freight cars on either side when they might have been viewing the magnificent speci mens of Yuma agricultural products if there had been any such in sight. We have an exhibit house at the station, where the trains never stop more than five minutes; but it is now used as a lunch counter and the agri cultural exhibit is a thing of the past. Would it not be a good plan to move the house to a place on the west side of Madison avenue near the car shops and keep it stocked with samples of Yumau gricultural and mining products. A strong lunged man could be on hand at every day time train to call the attention of passengers to the exhibit, and it is but COMMERCE RE EE Washington, D. C, Sept. 1 A summary of the general results of the 1914 census of manufactures with respect to the printing and publishing industry has been issued by Director Sam L. Rogers, of the Bureau of Census, De partment of Comemrce. It consists of a statement prepared under the direction of Mr. William M. Steuart, chief statistician for manu factures, showing for 1914 and 1909, the number, circulation, and receipts of newspapers and periodicals, and the number and receipts of establish ments doing job printing and of es tablishments printing and publishing books and pamphlets, and music in sheet or book form. The figures are preliminary and are subject to such half a minute's walk across the street. The railroad management would gladly keep the way clear of cars and the city could make a nice blue dirt walk from the train stopping place to the exhibit for a few dollars. Stops for train repairs longer than the regular time are of frequent oc currence. It is 250 miles to a repair either east or west, and breaks are constantly occurring in so long a di vision. At any rate, the trains stop regularly for 12 and 14 minutes and with some literature and views on hand to supplement the exhibit a great deal of valuable advertising could be had for very little cost. Passengers on the Overland trains see nothing of the Yuma project thru the maps which show the railroad passing through it. They see a wild desert east of Yuma and the half-wild Indian reservation to the westward. A bad impression is created by what they see. This might be reversed if they were shown what grows on the irrigated land only a few hundred yards away just out of view if only a little effort were put forth. SHOULD THE 60VE1 lEIT TELL RAIL ROAD MM II' (Continued on Page Three) subject, all the pretense in which congresses past and present have eng gaged, is laid bare. We have no arbi tration except in controversies whose results are so doubtful that both par ties are unwilling to risk a fight. When either believes it can win by force, it will not consent to arbitra tion. A few years ago the railway com panies resisted just as bitterly as Mr. Lee does now, the government's at tempt to regulate their affairs. They held that their property was private property, to do with as they pleased. The government held that their man agement of their private property was a matter of public concern. It pro ceeded then to regulate the manage ment. It fixed rates, it established accounting systems; it prescribed certain things for the railways to do with their property and prescribed other things that could not be done. For the failure to do the things or dered to be done, the railways could plead only acts of God, the acts of strikers and accidents. The railways had beacme a quasi-public service, more severely regulated even than the public service. SHOWS AND PUBLISHING change and correction as may become necessary upon further examination of the original reports. j According to the census classifica tion the printing and publishing in- ' dustry is made up of three branches, comprising: (l; establishments whose chief business is book and job printing, book printing and publish-, ing or book publishing only; (2) es tablishments whose sole or chief busi ness is music printing, or music print ing and publishing, or music publish ing only; and (3) establishments which are engaged in the printing and publishing, or in the publishing onfy, of newspapers and periodicals, some of the first named doing job work also. The number of establishments in this industry in 1914 aggregated 31, 612, and the total value of their prod ucts amounted to $810,508,111. Acts of God and accidents cannot be provided against by the railroads or the government, but most frequent derangement of this quasi-public ser vice can be provided against by an application of regulations to the em ploye as well as to the employer. It is recognized now that only one side of the railroad business is being regu lated. Until the other side is brought under the same authority the regula tion will not be complete and the most likely cause of loss and incon venience to the public will remain. As the railroads perform a quasi public service, a service, in fact, which brings them into closer relation to the public than any public service, every precaution should be taken against interferences with it. Every man connected with the service from railroad president to brakeman now ! should be held responsible to the gov ernment for any act which may inter fere with the service. Not only would such an arrange ment protect the public for which all regulation of the railways is alone intended, but it would protect the really aggrieved party in any contro versy that might arise between the railway companies and their em ployes. It would be determined then which was in the wrong and the wrong would be righted, without loss to either. It would involve no "slavery." It would take away no privilege that any man in this country ought to have. The privilege of committing an act injurious to one's self or to society is a privilege which should be taken away7 3DNFERENCE TO SOLVE CROP MARKETING PROBLEM CHICAGO, Sept. 1. Plans to check the annual billion-dollar waste in the marketing of farm products, and a comprehensive program in rural credits, beyond the present scope and powers of the farm loan board, will be the chief work of the Fourth Na tional conference on Marketing and Farm Credits, called today, to meet in Chicago December 4-9. The marketing section of the con ference will take practical and imme diate steps to rectify certain abuses in marketing, and to tighten up the loose methods now prevailing in the handling of the chief crops of the nation It is expected that the crops considered will be livestock, cotton, grain, hay and whole milk and its products Hearings will be held to develop the movement of these crops and the conditions surrounding their handling.
