THE FOG BUOY.
a Safeguard to Fleets Of Warships In
Thick Weather.

4 Safeguard to Fleets Of Warships In
Thick Weather.
Probably the greatest menace to the
safety Of navigation at sea is the fog.
Modern steamships are seldom endan-
gered by the most severe weather, but
when the impenetrable envelope of
mist incloses a ship she is exposed to
the most terrible Of perils, a collision
1t sea. a single ship may he compar
atively safe ever in a fog, but where
there is a f1eet Of vessels the danger
is greatly multiplied. There is always
considerable danger, too, on account Of
the fact that many Of the ship lines
have what could be termed a beaten
path across the ocean, and they al
ways follow this route when possible.
In addition to the customary fog
horns and sirens, a feet Of warships
often keep informed Of their relative
positions by the firing Of signal guns
at intervals only a few minutes apart.
Another method used is the fog buoy.
Each vessel in the feet, especially II it
Is q warship feet, carries q fog buoy,
a large cask painted a vivid red. This
is cast overheard at the first sign Of a
fog, and it floats from the stern Of the
vessel, attached to a rope Of grass
fiber, which does not sink beneath the
surface Of the water. BY this means
the exact location Of the individual
ships Of the fleet is maintained, even
though proceeding at a moderate rate

MONTANA vs.. MISSOURI.

Montana livestock circles we're
thrilled With pride and enthusiasm
9 few days ago, by the announcement
from Bozeman that an agricultural
college GOV had broken the worlds
record in both milk and butter fat
production. The feat was accom-
plished at q milking test of one week,
during which the aspirant for distinc.
ton yielded $50 pounds of milk that
gave PIT pounds of butter fat.
This remarkable record was made
by "Polander," q Jersey COW pur-
chased by the agricultural college man.
agement from AZ Minnesota rancher.
The ancestry of this female cattle
beast is unknown and is immaterial;
her work is what counts. An average
of over 80 quarts of milk per day is
of morei uterestIthan q pedigree.
There was great excitement at the
agricultural college and throughout
the Gallatin valley when it became
known that Polander was delivering
locteal du1d in.such abund ance that q
new worlds record was probable.
The milking!barn was q rendezvous
for the college faculty and students,
who encouraged the performer to put
forth her ibest efforts on this mos,
suspicious occasion. Professor Cool
ey told funny, stories on the theory
that relaxation Of the muscles would
release morel fluid from the mill
glands, and other spectators employed
every artifce at their command to a..
sist in establishing Q record that
would make Polsnder and the agri,
cultural college famous.
The result OF these efforts appears

els Of Compaetness.
A man who actually carries his Of
6ce in his hand is the railroad con-
ductor. Usually it is a box specially
made and ornamented with bright
brass trimmings and brass handles
and with the conductors name neatly
engraved on a brass plate.
When his trip is finished you will
see him leave the train carrying his
Office with him. The railroad has no
rent to pay for him, and yet he is one
Of the busiest Of employees, with
many accounts to keep.
In this hand Office of the conductor
is the full record Of his trip, and it il
a model Of ~neatness and compactness.
There is a place in his Office for all
the tickets collected, an envelope for
his cash fare receipts and many blank
forms which he is required to fill out
with particulars of the run
Usually the conductor opens up his
Office in the baggage a or in an emp
ty seat after his train has left the
last station Of the run For some time
thereafter he is a busy man.
His portable Office when opened is
transformed into n little desk having
pigeonholes and writing materials
and with it open in front Of him the
conductor counts his tickets, sorts
them among the proper pigeonholes
and makes up his accounts. 1t is all
done generally before the train gets in,
and upon arrival at the terminal he
takes his office with him and departs
with the rest of the passengers.
