In Missouri lecturers are being
sent to the country school houses
in various parts Of the State to
speak to the children and parents
upon practical problems Of farm
ing. Usually two lectures are given
at each place, one in the afternoon
and one at night. In many places
70 to 100 farmers attend the meet
ings, often going miles over muddy
country roads. This movement is
meeting with much approval and
exciting much enthusiasm in agri-
cultural families, which would
seem to indicate that il would be a
good thing to try in other states.
The twentieth century requires
thoroughly trained farmers TO meet
its demands and these can only be
obtaiaed by commencing with the
youth Of the land and keeping up
the instruction throughout their
whole life.-American Farmer.

SANTA FE TO EXTEND a LINE.
VIII Build from CoReyviIIe Down Into
Indian Territory.

Vinita, I. T., March 5.-According to ru-
mors. which are current here. the Atch-
ison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad com
pany viii extend Its line at once from
COfeyville, Kan, southeast to this place.
The Santa Fe has owned for several years
right of way through Coneyville and
from three miles southeast into the In
dian Territory and on yesterday the
squatters upon this right of way were or
dered off. A preliminary survey as far
as Centraha has already been made and
the line as far as Vinita has been map
ped out. The Santa Fe already has a line
through the western part of the terri
tory from Caney, Kan, through the oil
fields by Bartlesville to Tulsa. and now
If the line is extended southeast of COT
feyville to Vinita it will pass through an
excellent coal belt and one of the finest
agricultural sections Of the Indian Ter
ritory.
The Vinita and Western railroad has
been graded out six or eight miles. but
there appears to be little hope of this
road ever being built and if the Santa Fe
pushes its line from Coffeyville by Cen
tralia to Vinita at once it is believed that
the Vinita and Western will never mater
ialize.

CHICAGO DROPPING.
Field Store and Pullman Building
Sinking With Alarming Results.

Chicago. March 5.-Chicago is grad
ually dropping into the bore under
the streets known as the Illinois tun-
mel. The big Marshall Field store has
started down and smashed the glass in
two big show windows. The Reliance
skyscraper, across the street. has set
tied until tenants are becoming fright
ened. The Pullman building has gone
down so far that it is split from base
ment to the turret. The Field whole
sale structure in Adams street has
been sinking for months and is still
going down. At twelve different street
intersections there are depressions in
the streets.
It Is held possible by engineers that
short drop, such as might easily
come beneath the corner of a steel
bodied structure at any time, would
result in so great a strain on the frame
of the building as to cause it to fall
Serious consequences are feared should
such an accident come with the build
ing crowded with shoppers and en-
ploves.
The Union Loop manager has found
traffic and the lives of Messengers en-
dapRered because of sudden depression
and twisting of the elevated structures.
The ordinance requires the tunnel to
he twentv-seven feet under the streets.
The intervening twenty-seven feet is
mostly mud.

have used a large amount of this class
of labor It has proven satisfactory
and il can be said for the Indian of
New Mexico and Arizona that the San
ia Fe prefers him as a laborer to any
other in construction and grading work.
In the past the Indians who have
been employed on the coast lines have
been working under contractors and
the ma iority Of these contractors have
managed to get the earnings of the
Indian by putting attractive goods in
the commissary which Induced him TO
spend all of his earnings there. There
has also been more or less gambling
and whisky selling going on at al
times in the Indian camps on railroad
work which has made it very unsatis-
factory to the company and all parties
concerned.
Under the government supervision
the one pCint that has always been
sought for is to get the Indian to save
his money as far as possible and the
government conniissSries are only sup
pied with the absolute necessaries Of
life. There is always a man in charge
who makes it his business to see to it
that no gambling is going on and to
keep bootleg whisky dealers out Of
the camp.
Mr.. DaEennette will return to New
Mexico in about a week and the first
camp of Indian laborers, which will be
composed of Moquis ana NavajOs. will
he established on the Grand Canyon
line. other camps will be established
and it is proposed to use upwards Of
200 Indians on the west end Of the
Santa Fe during the coming summer.

NEW INDIANA RAILWAY.
Will Extend From Lake Michigan to
the Ohio River.

Kansas City. No. March 5.-Wil-
liam Kenehck, of this city. is the presi-
dent of a company organized to build
a railroad from Lake Michigan to the
Ohio river in Indiana. The new road
will cost twenty-five million dollars
and the work of construction will be-
gin at once. The proposed line
traverses the length of Indiana, tap
ping rich coal, stone and oil fields The
main line is to extend from Chicago to
Evansville, touching Indianapolis, with
branches from Crown Point to TOlles-
ton, from LOgansDOrt to South Bend
and from Bonneville to Greensboro, KY.
The principal terminal of the road
will be al TOlleston, where a big plant
is to be completed in 1908 by the
United States Steel corporation. The
new road Will enter Chicago over the
Chicago Belt railroad on equal terms
with the other Chicago railroads.
Features of the line are to be the
three-tenths of / per cent grade. and a
maximum curvature of three degrees.
The competing lines in Indiana have
grades ranging from six-tenths of 1
per cent to 1 4 per cent grade. The
average curvature of the present lines
Is much in excess of the curvature of
the proposed line. some running as
high as six degrees. On the grades
proposed for the new road train of
fifty loaded cars each with fifty ton
capacity can be hauled against trains
of fifteen to twenty cars carried by the
present lines. The new line will be the
only low grade line from the Ohio
river to Lake Michigan.

Enormous Fill Being Built on

A Million Cubic Yards of Earth

FIFTY FEET Il

Great Arch Under Way to Cross
Rock Island Tracks.
Gossip and Matters of Interest
in Railroad Circles.

There are many wonderful things
about the great short line which the
Atchison. Topeka & Santa Fe is build
ing across New Mexico and in the con-
struction OF which it is expending mil
lions for minutes" one of the most re-
markable Of them is the big fill now be-
ing completed at Vaughan. three miles
from Epris where the cutoff crosses the
Rock Island railway.
The fill win be slightly over a mile
long and so feet high on the upper side
and 81 feet high on the lower side. It
will take nearly one million cubic yards
of earth to complete the fill, which is
necessary to carry the Santa Fe tracks
over the Rock Island line at a sufficient
height. At the bottom it will be 1854
feet in width and IA feet at the TOP. The
enormous embankment will have two
big curves in its length and will be one
Of the most Imposing pieces of railroad
engineering in the territory Grant
Brothers have just completed the base
for the fill as high as the earth can
be Well graded with teams and scrap
ers, and the rest will be put on by
dumping earth from cars from the top
OF the bank, the cars being filed by
steam Shovels
The cutoff will cross the Rock Island
by means Of a lofty cement arch which
besides being an imposing piece of en-
gineering work will be architecturally
graceful and well worth seeing. Work
has already begun on this great arch.
While the building of this cutoff of
course does not compare with such a
project as the building of Dave Moffat' S
road, the Denver, Northwestern & Pa
cif1c through the peaks and around the
precipices of the Rockies, 1t is neverthe-
less one of the greatest feats of modern
railway building in America, and the
greatest ever accomplished by the Santa
Fe. The grade is even and gradual and
the ride over the cutoff will be one of
the smOothest on the system.
