pers along the Wilmington and
Northern Railroad III some things
and the farmers can not be com pelle d
to give up their rights. -,
Passengers travelling along the
liue will notice number of milk
stands at various out of. the way
places between stations. At these
pIaces the milk trains must stop both
mornings and evenings to take on
milk and deliver empty cans, caus.
lug the railroad employees no end of
annoy anCe. Recently an effort has
been made to do away with these
stops, but the farmers as rule have
held to theirrights, aud the railroad
people can do nothing.
When the railroad was built and
rights secured some of the farmers
refused absolutely to give rights un-
less they were given perpetual
agreement that the milk trains
should stop at their farms in case,
there was milk to be shipped OF cans
to be left. While the company pur-
chased some of these agreements
years ago, quite a number of them
are still in force. In some cases the
privilege is a valuable one, saving
the farmer a drive of couple of
miles to a station as he only has to
carry the milk across a field to
platform. At the Norris Temple
farm, near Pocopson, the right
exists and saves that farmer much
trouble. A trip to Pocopson would
mean drive over bad road of
about a mile.
