SANTA Fs ICE CROP.
Road win Put Up $4,000 Tons At La
Jnnta-NeR Ice Houses.


Road win Put Up $4,000 Tons at La
Junta-New Ice Houses.
The ice that il being put up by the
Santa Fe at La Junts Is the beat that has
been cut for storage there for years.
Il il Of good thickness and clear and
solid. The ice is cut on Lake George, a
lake Of pure, clear water. In view OF the
fact that such good Ice Is TO be had, the
company is making preparations TO put
up more than ever before. At present
there are ten Ice houses ut La Junta and
three more are to be finished In time ~
be Oiled with the winter's harvest OF Ice.
Nhen the new Ice houses are COM
pleted there Will be six hundred running
feet OF houses, with a capacity OF 75,OUU
tons. Last year the Santa Fe handled
large shipments OF melons from Rocky
Ford, the famous melon growing region,
and this year the company expects 10
handle even more than last year. The
melon ralsers OF Rocky Ford have formed
association TO push the expectation OF
the melons, and orders have been re-
ceived for a hundred Gar loads that will
be shipped as far east rs Boston.
Chicago. ST. Louis and New York parties
have placed large orders for melons, and
this means q greater demand for re-
frigerator cars than ever before, and the
santa Ne is providing for It by putting
up the immense amount of ice at La
Junta and other pOints, and OF having
$50 refrigerator cars built by the Wells
Y French company. Of Chicago.
The Santa Ne Is the only road running
into Rocky Ford, and all OF the business
is handled by them. For several years
the Santa Fe has net had the lions share
Of the fruit business from California, but
this season there will probably be as
much, ~ not more, fruit handled by the
Santa Fe than any other road doing
business out OF California.
The California fruit business comes
after the Rocky Ford season. and with
both these large fruit seasons the road
will have demand for all OF the fruit cars
and for ice TO refrigerate them. MFR. g.
W.. ClossOn, fuel contractor for the entire
Santa BE system, has the contract for
packing the ice In the La Junta houses
aud has everything In readiness TO COM
mence at a days notice.
The cutting commenced there yester-
day.

Ice from the Crystal Ice works. as Il does

DOUBLE BLOCK SYSTEM.
Byron Clients Idea May Be Adopted by
the Santa Fe.

Byron Clients Idea May Be Adopted by
the Santa Fe.
Engineer Byron Client has completed
the working model Of his new system OF
block signals, says the Topeka State
Journal. The idea is wholly Mr.. Clients,
but the electrical appliances for working
the semaphore arms is the handiwork Of
Ray Stiles, q l6-year. old boy. Mr.. Client
gave him the idea OF what he wished, and
Stiles constructed 1t.
In the working model small electric
bells are used instead OF the semaphore
blades. When an engine passes into a
block 1t shows red behind at the begin.
ming OF the block IL has Just entered.
and also shows red at the other end OF
the block. In this way both ends OF
the block are protected. II two trains
are approaching each other on separate
blocks they will both leave red signals
behind and will both get red signals at
the end Of the blocks they are approach
ing. In the system OF wiring four wires
are used and one of the rails. When a
train passes onto a block II closes the cir
cult by means OF a circuit closer. II any
thing should happen to the rails so that
the circuit would DO impaired the signals
at each end Of the block would point to
danger.
Mr.. Client has explained his idea to
several officials and 1t will probably be
inspected in a few days and II may be
used by the Santa Fe. Its advantage
over other systems Is that 1t works
double instead OF single. II is especially
adapted for single track.

U L FOR TRAINMEN.
WIN be Printed In Book Form BY the San
IA Re Hereafter.

WIN be Printed In Book Form BY the San
IA Re Hereafter.
The matter Of having the rules govern
ing trainmen and engineers printed In
book form Is being considered by Assist
ant Superintendent Avery Turner and
other officials Of the road. Each time a
new time card Is printed, the rules have
to be reprinted and bound In the time
card. This Is a great expense, and as
the rules do not change as often as the
time cards, IL would be q saving for the
company TO have them printed separately.
The Rock Island has for some time
printed Its rules In book form. They are
bound In a substantial binding and in
pocket form. II the Santa Fe decides to
print the rules in book form, the rules
will be thoroughly revised before that is
done and some changes and additions
will probably be made. THIS change
would meet with favor among the train
men.
