THE LATEST TRIUMPH OF
The MONO-RAlL ABROAD

Nearly two years have passed since
Mr.. Louis Brennan displayed before a
body Of English engineers a working
model Of railway car exemplifying
the features Of the gyroscopic mode
of locomotion. He has now demon
strated in a fashion quite conclusive
to the scientific press Of Europe that
all the claims then made for the
mono-rail are practically realized.
Intense interest has therefore been
awakened in the prospect of soon pro-
polling railroad cars on a single line
of rail laid on the ground. They will
be maintained upright by means of
gyroscopic control, and, in the light
Of the demonstration just made, they
will turn sharp curves and ascend
steep gradients. Apart from this gy-
roscopic control, the railroad cars
would capsize. Mr.. Brennan imparts
stability to his vehicles, as London
Engineering notes, through the same
principle which we see on it's grandest
scale when Nature steadies the move

MONEY IN HOGS.

Any farmer who will equip his
farm for swine raising and keep other
stock in order to change his rotations
and expand his variety of crops can
become well-to-do in five or ten years
by raising good hogs and fattening
them for market, says an exchange.
There is absolutely no question about
this. Pork can be cheaply and quick
ly produced. 1t can be made on other
crops than high-priced corn. Soy
beans, clover and alfalfa will grow
it. Corn is the most efficient fatten-
err, but it is not necessary in pork pro-
duction. Corn-belt farmers could
we'll afford to sell their corn and
make pork with other crops. By
sowing clover, alfalfa, COW peas,
soy beans and vetcb in crop rotations
the nitrogen and humus content of
soils could be maintained and the
element phosphorus could be applied
in raw rock phosphate at COMPARE
lively light expense. We mean to
say that soil fertility could be main
tanned and pork making made profit
able on corn farms without the use
of corn as hog feed.-Farmers
