Safest Plan to Ride

After several years experimenting,
officers of the Pennsylvania railway
have come to the conclusion that di-
rectly behind a locomotive Is a bad
place for ~sleepers or any other cars
which are used by passengers. For
this reason an order has been issued
that sin all instances a baggage car,
whether the car is needed for bag
gage purposes or lot, must be the
first car of the train" This is the
first official acknowledgment from a
railway company that the middle OF
a train is the safest place to ride. Re
cent acciden have convinced many
railway men that not only the front
end of passenger trains, but also the
rear, should be protected by a bag
gage car, whether Used or not.

Why He Did Not Resign.

Sir William Wightman held office
in the old court of queens bench far
beyond the prescribed time. and at
last, on the eve of the "long vacation"
he took a sort of farewell of his
brother judges. However, when "the
morrow of All Souls" came around
he turned up smiling at Westminster
hall. "Why, Brother Wightman," said
Sir Alexander Cockburn, you told
us that you intended to send in your
resignation to the lord chancellor be-
fore the end of August" $50 | did"
said Sir William, "and when | went
home and told my wife she said:
why, William, what on earth do you
think that we can do with you mess
ing about the house all day? So you
see, I was obliged to come down to
court again"

Steel PASSENGER Cars.

1t is safe to predict that within the
next 20 years the wooden passenger
coach will be unknown. Many of the
great railroad system of the country
are experimenting with steels cars
and the results have been to SO high
a degree satisfactory that orders have
been placed for equipment of metal
to be used in the express service.
Steel baggage and express cars have
been in service to a limited extent for
a number of years, and the fact that
orders have been duplicated shows
that they are giving entire satisfac-
ton. On all of the great %coal-carry-
ing roads steel cars are extensively
used in transporting fuel and the prac'
tice is extending to the roads where
this commodity is only incidental to
their freight traffic. One of the CHIEF
advantages of metal cars is their sta
bility in case of accident and theil
safety from fire. It has been fire
quently demonstrated that in case Of
derailment these cars sustain very lit
tie damage, while under like condi
tions wooden equipment would have
been rendered into kindlings.

KILLING THE MILK WEED.
How One Farmer Successfully Eradl-
Gated 1t from His Fields

With reference to a method of ex-
terminating milk weed and morning
glory, will say that IL it Is the milk
weed that grows from the root as we'll
as from seed, and which has the seed
attached to down that scatters when
the wind blows, l can give the ex-
perience we had several years ago.
My father had a field badly infested
with such milk weeds and pea vines,
y a writer in Prairie Farmer, and
he sowed 1t to oats, cutting the oats
before the milk weed was ripe enough
for the seed to scatter. He plowed the
ground In August, when the ground
was dry, going just deep enough to
turn the runners and roots on the sur
face. These the sun soon dried 30
that they could not sprout again.
He then sowed the field with wheat
and repeated the operation next Aug
ust. The pea vines were exterminated
| and what milk weed was left we pulled
| up by hand. There was only an occa
sional one or two and these we believe
came from seed blown from Other
fields.

LIaht as a Curative.

The value of light as an agent In

ENEMY TO GRASS AND CORN.
The So-caiied Grass Web Worm, anu
How It May Be combated.

Grass web worms, 1t will be remem
bered, were somewhat destructive last
year in portions of Rensselaer,, Column
bia and Albany counties, New York,
says the Country Gentleman. The in
juries were in most cases confined to
grass lands, particularly the drier
knobs, and the damage was empha-
sized by the prevailing dry weather.
The large amount OF rain the present
season has prevented depredations of
this character from being noticeable,
abundant in some fields, since a re-
port has just come to us of rather Sc
we're injury in Columbia county to
corn planted on recently plowed sod
land.
Grass web worms, sometimes known
as corn web worms, come from mi
mute white eggs deposited sby the
light-brown, white-marked moths SO
frequently observed flying in large
numbers in late afternoon and early
| evening in grass fields and invariably
alighting with the wings wrapped
| closely about the body, the latter par
allel with the grass stem upon which
the insect rests. The web worms
themselves are d~ullcolored, s~parsely'
haired, brown-headed caterpillars
about half an inch long. They live in
web-lined retreats at or just beneath
the surface of the soil, ana a little in
vestigation in infested grass lands Oh
about hills of corr troubled by this
insect should result in u~ncovering the
d~epredators. They work on corn II
various ways, sometimes tunneling the
stalks, occasionally eating holes il
the sides of the stems or feeding tt
some extent on the leaves.
There were some injuries of this
kind last year, and as a rule trouble
of this nature may be prevented b!
early fall blowing, since this de
prives the web worms of their accus
toned p%rovender before they have al
opportunity to go into Information, AM
we should expect a considerable nun
Der of them to perish before an,
green food such as young corn !
available in the spring. Another pre-
ventive measure would be to della
planting as late as possible, In tn
hope that a considerable number G
the web worms would succumb befor
the corn came up. Another precal
ton which might be taken in plan
ing sod lands would be to put 1
about twice the usual amount of seed
in the hope that a fair stand would b
secured, in spite of web-worm inj'
ries. This would necessitate som
thinning on areas where web worm
were not abundant, but in any ever
this would be preferable to %replantini
! There is no practical method of checl
ing outbreaks of this character in Gu
I tivated fields, owing to the expense Il
! volved. About the only thing tn,
can be done following severe injury
to replant.
