The German government will prob
ably adopt the wireless telegraph to
prevent railway accidents.
Two years ago exhaustive practical
experiments were commenced and
continued until recently on the mill
tary railway leading from Berlin to
Zossen. Telegraph stations were fit
ted up with transmitters and receiv-
ers. while the trains were equipped
with the same apparatus. Ordinary
telegraph wires along the track were
used to facilitate the work.
The experiments proved that the
stations could at any time communi-
cate with a train running at full speed
and warn it of impending danger. The
use of wireless telegraphy in this con-

CROP SATIRE.
Bumper Crops Everywhere Despite
All Kinds of Bugs.

While professional crop destroyers
wage their famine creating campaign
all through the growing season gran
aries are filled every fall, says the
Chicago Livestock World. Fortunate
ly the crop destroyer is not to be taken
seriously. Here is facetious effort
at his expense from the Northwest:
THE croaker said the spring was late
And wheat would not grow in this
state
While slug and flood and Hessian fly
Biffed the poor wheat plant in the
eye.
The hopper, large as poodle pup,
Next ate the crop at Ipswich up;
Black rust affected what remained,
But still the plant its grip retained,
Until a bug with yellow tag
In South Dakota raised it's flag;
Then came a storm of wind and hail
And threshed the wheat as with a
fail
And still the crop we've raised this
year
Is large as ever known up here!"
