STEPS ON RAILWAY CARS.
An Authority Thinks They ShouId[
Be Abolished,

When the first primitive railway
was built in this country, says the
Railway Age, somebody thought it
would be cheaper and handler to at
tach steps so that passengers could
get on or of whenever the train
might accommodating stop, without
the trouble of drawing up to q plat
form, and the fashion once started
has been followed until now there
are in the United States not far from
35, 900 cars, passenger, baggage, mail
and express, which are dragging
around four times as many--l40, 600
sets OF steps that are costly to
build and maintain, are constant
source of danger, discomfort and de-
lay, and serve no purpose that could
not much better be accomplished by
having station platforms at a level
with the platforms of the cars. The
elevated railways in New York first
demonstrated the needlessness of
steps for cars on the American plan
Of having end doors, as had from the
first been demonstrated OH all
European railways where the
doors open ut the side. The
Illinois Central Railroad Com
pany had the enterprise to extend the
principle of no steps to surface roads
by building special cars and high sta
ton platforms for its Worlds Fair
train service, with the result Of
handling great numbers of passen-
gers with extraordinary celebrity and
safety, and the same progressive man
agement is now preparing to abolish
car steps in its extensive suburban
train service by elevating its station
platforms. 1t has had the principle
in highly successful operation for
nearly year on it's express suburban
service, in which are used ordinary
day coaches, the steps having been
removed end the platforms widened
out, and IL it were building new cars
for that service it would build them
without Gteps. For remote ststions
on it's local service where it is not
yet ready to provide new station plat
forms, 1t adopts the simple device Of
having trap doors over the steps,
which can be thrown back where the
steps IRE to be used-an expedient
that would facilitate the gradual
adoption of the high station platform
principle on all roads, allowing them
to apply it at first only at the princi-
nal stations

The oil expressed from the sun
flower seed is Of q light yellow
color, and is valued by artists for it's
fine quality for painting. There is
but little use for it, so that it would
not pay to go into the business large
ly. The plant is very prolific, yield
ing from fifty to 100 bushels CT the
seed to an acre. A hundred pounds
Of seed gives thirty-three pounds of
the kernels, and these yield twenty
five per cent. of oil. Thus an acre Of
the flowers may yield about 100
pounds of the kernels and 275 pounds
OF IL Q oil. The oil weighs somewhat
less than eight pounds to the gallon.
The oil is not the only valuable part
Of this plant. The yield of leaves,
dry, is about 500 pounds to the acre,
and they are readily eaten by cattle;
the yield Of stalks is three 70 six
TONS dry, per acre. The stalks arc
excellent fuel, and where wood Is
costly it will pay well to grow this
