Mr.. Mason points out that the date on

Scores tho Great Northern.

. A communication from an .indig.
nant "knight of the grip" has been
received at this Office, which bitterly
scores the management of the Great
Northern for running refrigerator cars
with It's passenger trains. He says:
~ ''The railway company knowingly
endangers the lives of the travelling
public. Itpaints tho refrigerator cars
green, which were originally white, in
order to be less conspicuous. In re-
ferring to the late accident he says
that "the mail clerk of the ill-fated
train knew of its danger and refused
to go out unless the mail car was run
ahead of the refrigerator. Guilty Of
fcials, although high in Office, should
be treated and punished like common
people to the full extent of the law.''

For Blocking Jack Frost.

A convenient remedy to frighten off
Jack Frost which would save the dol.
lars of many gardeners and farmers
IT used, says the section director, is
the burning of wet straw in bonfires
about gardens or fields. The straw
fires are also cordially recommended
by Willis L. Moore, chief of the nat
ional weather bureau, in bulletin
prepared by W. n. Harmon, profess
sor of meteorology.
The fires should be small ones,
twenty-five to fifty feet apart. The
thick smoke, laden with moisture,
will settle like a cloud about the fields
and will prevent the heat of tae earth
from escaping upward. Moreover,
the fires will condepse the moisture in
the surrounding atmosphere and will
thus evolve an immense amount OF
heat.
This plan has proved Aery success
