On products of the, farm, garden, orchard and ranch, including live ttock, the 10vper cent temporary re duction any rates heretofore cut 10 per would otherwise have expired July 1, is continued after that date. While the railway commissioa'a ord er generally exempts from preient re duction any rates heretofor cut 10 per cent or more, the reduction will apply where there has been a specific re adjustment on fehort hauls within the ttute, and rates which were incident ally lowered in such readjustments will go down with the rest. Nebraska rates on brick, sand, gravel and stone are in this class.
