To save and use some 5000, 0Oe OF

has been given over to reptiles and

be brought under cultivation. Flor
ida is to become a mntch more won
derful state even than it has been
heretofore, and that means a good
deal.
A. b. Clark, in an interesting arti-
Gle in the Technical Word Magazine,
explains the difficulties in the way of
saving this immense acreage and the
benefits which will accrue to the
state from the carrying out of the
enterprise
The Importance of this immense
undertaking can with difficulty be
comprehended," says the writer 1T
is estimated in figures which can
scarcely be understood by the Ordi-
nary mnd. The reclamation of this
land means the addition TO Florida OF
nearly as much cultivated land as she
now has. 1t will mean the throwing
open to civilization of an area twice

BLOCK SYSTEM
AVOID ACCIDENT
The Northwestern Makes Tests
With Good Results

Chicago, H., Jan. 5.-The man.
of the Chicago & North
western railroad has just completed
a remarkable demonstration show
ing what can be accomplished in the
way of educating enginemen to obey
block signals. During the year 1906
the company made series of sur
prise tests" numbering 1.625 and the
record shows that there was not a
single failure to obey the rules gov
erning block signalling.
Surprise tests" are made without
previous knowledge of the engine
crews and consist of every conceiv-
able question which may arise in
connection with block signals and
their observance.
The management of the North
western began making these tests
several years ago and found that in
a certain percentage of cases the sig
mails were not observed. AS the re-
suit of series of early tests ten
engineers were discharged from the
service and others were severely
death with for failure to obey the
signals.
In each case the men were told
they had done all in their power to
contribute to an accident, and it was
no fault of theirs that an accident
had not occurred. 1t was given out
plainly by the management that fail
ure to obey signals meant dismissal.
The result Of the campaign of the
Northwestern shows, according to
officials, that engine crews can be
disciplined to the point where failure
to obey signals will be practically
oyar
