SIGNALS FOR CARRIERS.
Farmers VIII Probably be Informed of
the Weather Forecast by signals
Carried by Rural Mail Carriers.


Within short time the rural mail
carriers starting out from this city
will likely have weather signals at
tached to their wagons to inform the
farmers of the weather forecast.
Congressman Serene K. Payne is
trying to get the postal department to
act with the weather bureau and have
rural free mail deliveries carry
weather signal flags to inform the
farmers of the weather forecast.
The idea is that of Henry Warneck,
Lyons N j. farmer, who brought
it before the Grange here. The MEM
bers of the Grange communicated
with Congressman Payne, who in
dorsed the project.
The postal department has advised
DIR. Andrew f. Sheldon, of the
Grange, that the matter is being serl-
ousIv considered at Washington. as
the rural carriers are away from the
distributing offices at $50 O'Clock
every morning, and could easily get
the forecast and carry flags which
would be of great benefit to the far

TRAMP RAILROAD MAN
what Generally starts Him ON the
Downward Road

Downward Road
That human nature is pretty much
alike in all callings is shown by the
study of the tramp railroad man,
said division superintendent of one
Of the trunk lines yesterday.
1.-THE tramp railroad man usually
begins his career of wandering seek
| ing employment from road to road,
after his first dismissal because of
drinking. He may be an experienced
! man, such as any road would be glad
TO employ, but this weakness for
whiskey caused his downfall, and,
like other men, once the downward
slide begins, every jolt in the tobog-
gan path sends him farther toward
the bottom.
Railroads all over the country are
enforcing the rule demanding strict
sobrietv with great rigidness. The
question is resolved to it's most SIM
pie terms IT man wishes to keep
his place he has got to keep liquor
our of his stomach. =
A few years ago it was COM
mon sight to see trainmen come out
OF saloon orKa hotel near the depot
after preliminary bracer' before
starting on their run. 1t is a rare
sight now, and, furthermore, the
rule holds good at all times of the
day whether on or off duty. Ii
trainman is known to tipple off duty
he is at once called up before the
division superintendent and severely
leetured. If the admonltion fails to
have the desired effect, be is sum-
marily dismissed. The managers of
the roads have determined that men
who possess a disposition to drink
cannot remain on their payrolls and
the wholesale reformations and the
good IN general which has been ac-
complihsed has been almost incalcul-
able.
Probably there are more dismissals
for drunkenness among swltchmen
than in the other grades of railroad
employees. This is because switch
men and yardmen are stationed at one
place frequently near saloons.

Perhaps the most effective plan would.
be to forbid the sale or giving away of
tobacco in any form to minors, under
heavy penalties of fine and imprison-l
Inent. and trust the various anti-cigaret
societies for vigorous prosecutions under
the law. Another plan which commenis
itself is moral suasion in the home and
ir the school. The principal of a Missis-
s,ppi school for boys announces that he
has completely banished the cigaret
from the institution by simply instruct
ing the pupils in thesevil effects Of the
weed. appealing to their manhood and
tFeir desire for complete mental and
bodily health. Before he began his
course Of instruction SO per cent of his
pupils used cigarets; now he is con-
WINGED there is not one who is addicted.
to the habit. Such methods as that will
