DOG TELLS RED
LIGHT FROM GREEN

Can a dog tell green from red
when displayed on a swith along
side the track Of q railroad, and
can It learn the significance and
Importance of the green and red
signals as applied to railroading?
H.. w. Sheridan, superintendent
OF the Sacramento division Of the
Southern Pacific Company, says
that 1t can, and Sheridan has a
mass of evidence to prove his
assertion.
Sheridan secured his evidence
recently while conducting an
efficiency test about 100 miles
north Of Sacramento. California.
With sevreal assistants he changed
the light on one of the switches
from green to red. then waited to
see II the crew Of the next train
would observe the wrong light and
stop the train before 1t reahed the
swith. The dog began to bark as
soon az the red light was shown
in place of the green. 1t ran
around the signal for several
minutes and then to the quarters
Of the section foreman, q half
mile away. Shortly after the
foreman appeared with lantern
and shot gun, led by the dog,
and Sheridan and his assistants
had difficult time in explaining
the red light to the satisfaction of
both the dog and it's master.
These efficiency tests are con-
duted throuhout the year for the
purpose Of kee ping train and
enginemen on the alert.
After q crew has run over the
same line day after day without
mishap, they. in common with

careless and fail to observe q
danger signal at a critical
moment. Such an oversight 10
frauRht with danger that makes
one thudder to think Of it-a
hundred lives might be snuffed out
in the twinkle Of an eye should
q train or engineman fail to
observe 4 signal. To guard
against such contingency the
Southern Pacific Company has q
efficiency tests. ranging from the
changing of the color Of signal
lights, and sxtinguishing lights
entirely to placing fuses and tor
pedoes on the track. Failure to
observe any of these signal means
most severe discipline for the
offender. Last year the southern
Pacific made 7C26 of these tests
and only in al cases did the crew
fail to observe the signal. giving
a percentage Of 99.42 pre- cent
project.

temporary discontinue, knows the

STRANGE RAIN TREE OF PERU

The rain tree Of Peru has the power
of collecting the dampness in the at.
mosphere, and condensing it into {
continuous supply of rain. The tree
grows very large, and Is rich in
leaves. The Indians call 1t "tamacas-
pi." In the dry season, when, with the
rivers low, the power of condensation
seems at the highest with the tree,
water falls from the leaves and oozes
from the trunk. The water spreads
around the tree In copious quantities,
part of 1t entering the soil and fer.
tilizing II. The ground is canalized SC
as to regulate the course of the water.
II is estimated that one of these trees
will yield nine gallons of water daily.
Ten thousand trees can be grown in
an area of one kilometer square (that
IS, $3.50 feet each way, and this plan.
tation will produce daily 3s5,000 liters
of water. Allowing for evaporation and
inflltration, there is at least $4,000
liters. or 29,531 gallons of rain for
daily distribution. The tree can be
cultivated with little difficulty, and Is
Indifferent as to soil. II grows rapidly
and Is hardy. resisting both extremes
of climate.

$4,000 IN ONE YEAR
THE IMMIGRATION TO CANADA
sURPASSES ALL RECORD.

The returns recently issued by the
Canadian immigration Branch shows
that upwards of 325,000 persons ar
rived in Canada during the past
twelve months, declaring their inten-
tion OF becoming settlers In that coun-
try. or this number about 10000
were from the United States, the bal
ance being from the British Isles and
Northern Europe. 1t will thus be seen
that the sturdy farming element that
has gone forward from the United
States is being splendidly supplement-
ed by an equally sturdy settlement
from across the seas. The lure OF
Canadian wheat, oats, barley and fax
grown on the rich prairie of Western
Canada is constantly attracting more
and more, and year by year the tide
OF immigrants to the Western Canada
plains increases; there is no ebb to
this tide. The Canadian authorities
are not surprised at the number from
the United States being as large as 1t
is but they did not look for so large an
immigration from the old countries
Still, they will not be found unpre-
pared. Reception halls are in readi-
ness at all important points in Mani
toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, sur
veyors were at work during the past
season opening up new districts on
which to place those seeking free
homesteads Of 160 acres each, rail-
ways have been projecting laterals
from their main lines, and every pro-
vision has been taken to accommo-
date the newcomer. A recent dis
patch from Antwerp reads: The d.
version OF European emigration from
the United States to Canada Is said
to be seriously affecting the Atlantic
steamship lines. The Red Star today
gives up to the America Canada line
two of the best special emigrant
steamers afloat, the Gothland and the
Samland. These vessels heretofore
in the Antwerp-New York service are
now to be operated from Rotterdam to
Canadian ports"
On the date of the above dispatch
word came to the immigration branch
that the Vanguard of the 1911 army
Of United States settlers reached Win
nipeg at 80 o'clock this morning.
| There was solid train load Of ef
fects, comprising Al carloads and two
colonist sleepers attached to the train.
which contained the members OF 25
families. Every man Jack in the
party is skilled farmer, and all have
come north prepared to go right on
the land, which was purchased last
year. They are equipped with every
thing that experience has shown is
necessary to make start on virgin
prairie. In addition to machinery and
household effects there were a large
number of horses and cattle. Some OF
the farmers had also brought along
gas tractors, which will be put right
to work on ground breaking"
One Of the agents Of the Canadian
government advises that it would ap-
pear as if each month Of the present
year would show large increase over
the past year. The demand for the
literature of the department, describ-
ing the country and its resources, Is
greater than it ever has been.
