An Explanation.

Some of our Stockmen have
been more or less inconven.
fenced this shipping season due
to the shortage of cars. A
special correspondent to the
Dallas News quotes an explana-
ton from Don A. Sweet, traffic
manager of the Pecos Valley
branch of the Santa Fe, which
may be conciliatory to some
who have been holding their
cattle tor this point, incurring
great expense as well as loss OF
time. 1t says:
"The Pecos Valley lines will
show a heavy cattle business
this year, and the cattle ship
pers will have full opportunity
to move their stock to market
in spite of the shortage of stock
cars, which has caused some of
them to fear that they will not
be able to get their stock out to
market" He declares that the
congestion along the Pecos Val
ley system is due largely to the
fact that cOwmen are punching
shipments to a considerable ex-
tent this year, in fact, much
more than usual. Had the
roads been able to move all the
stock in accordance with the
request of shippers the markets
would have been glutted long
before that event actually trans

Fire Chiefs in European Cities.

Very few European chiefs of fire
brigades have been trained or have
worked their way up as fremen. In
Paris the chief must be soldier, and
the department is a regiment of in
fantry, placed at the disposal OF the
city of Paris by the war office. In
Berlin the chief and most of the men
are veteran soldiers, though many are
artisans and mechanics. In London
the chief officer is from the navy,
and nine-tenths of the men under his
command are sailors. while in elias
gov the chief officer is master me-
chanic by trade. and every fireman
must be a skilled worker of some kind.
In Nasso, Sweden, the fire department
is made up of $50 women and the
"waterworks' are four enormous wa
ter tubs.

PREVENTIVE MEDICINES.
Enlightened People Are Always on
the Lookout for the Ounce
of Prevention.

In looking over the history of the
search for a means. of cure one is
struck by the great value of the ounce
OF prevention. Keeping the germs out
is in every way preferable to dealing
with them after they have once en-
tered the body. This fact scientific
medicine is impressing more and more
deeply on the minds of public authori-
ties and the people, and their response
in the form of provisions for improved
public and private sanitation is one Of
the striking features Of the social
progress of the present time. All the
more enlightened nations, states and
cities of the world possess organized
departments of health, which, with
varying degrees of thoroughness, deal
with the problems presented blythe in
fictitious diseases in the light of the
latest discoveries, says the Medical
News. Fifty years ago the term pre-
ventive medicine was unknown. To-
day it represents great body of we'll
attested and accepted principles. 1t
has cleaned our streets; it has helped
to build our model tenements; it has
purified our food and our drinking
water; it has entered our homes and
kept away disease; it has prolon ged
our lives, and it has made the world a
sweeter place in which to live.

THE BRAVE WOLVERINE.
Animal Possessed of Desperate Cour-
age and Endurance Famed
in Michigan.

Not "little wolf" as the ignorant
think, is the significance of wolverine,
but something of greater dignity-an
embodiment of the terrible spirit of
the wild fire of the prehistoric for
ests, says Outing. Wonderful in it's
strength and courage, tree climber
on occasion, not immense of size, but
with limbs and claws great, out of all
proportion to it's size, with a muzzle
almost hog-like, but with great white
fangs; the beast has still an element
of the grotesque in it's makeup, with
it's sweeping bushy tail and the broad
bands of yellow white upon its back
and shoulders. Woe to the smaller
beast or the deer upon which it
dropped from some great lowhanging
branch, or before whom it suddenly
appeared in the dense windfalls.
Of all the continent the Michigan
peninsula was the chosen habitat of
the wolverine, and he struggled long
before backwoodsmen drove him from
heritage. So enduring was he, so
desperately courageous, that his name
became a synonym for pluck and
prowess, and proudly the people of
Michigan accept the nickname which
has been given them.

Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
