Better Culture Bigger Profits

We feel that the sort of work which
is being done by the Agriculture Depart
ment of the Rock Island Lines is of real
economic value.
Wide publicity will tend to arouse an
interest in better agriculture and create
a sentiment for similar work in other
sections of the country.
The agriculture development of the
United States is in its infancy. Modern
scientific methods of cultivation mean
untold millions in increased production,
with all the improved living conditions
which naturally go with success.
The movement is not local issue, it
is matter of national Importance which
bears u relation to every man, woman
and child.

Cattle. Locusts and Railways.

IN running railways in Brazil there
are two difficulties TO contend with
which the European traveller does not
know-cattle and locusts The cattle
cannot be kept off the track. Miles
and mites of it are fenced in. and yet
the cattle manage TO force their way
through and then cannot get out. The
cowcatcher is efficient. but not sufli-
GENTLY so. as the trains are often de
rallied by an OK being caught either
between The cowcatcher or cylinder
and the rail or even between the loco
motive and the truss of a bridge. but
such accidents are hardly ever serious.
Locusts are less common. but occa-
sionally travel along in clouds When
they come to earth they may pile up
to foot deep in the cuttings. and. of
course. the locomotives will skid along
