 Following the dinner NIT. Van Horn was presented to the gathering by MT. Carroll, and he spoke in Q. most en- tertainfng manner of the new road which is to be completed a distance of no miles in November, a larfe part of it being in operation now. This is the :.rst division of the road. It is located in southern Wyoming and northern Colorado, and taps the coal, timber and irrigated sections of thOSa states. It joins the Union Pacific at Laramei, Wyo. This railroad will open thracite and bituIninous which, ac- cording to goverhment reports. cover large areas. It Is also close to the hydrOcarbon fields and large copper mine. The road passes through exten- sive lumber regions where a million raiload ties can be gotten out each year for 47 years, and all of which would go over this line. There is also a large fertile valley where fruit can be extensively cultivated, and is now, but cannot be marketed The road has been built on merit, with concrete cul- verts, and has the advantage of the grade, the loaded trains coming down while the light ones would be going up thegrades The Tampa coalfieId will give this road it's business and there is a. larger demand for both kinds of coal in that section than can be- supplied.
 MT. Van Horn explained his interest in the company and told of the flnan- cfa1 backing he has given itsand the cost thus far, the funded debt, and stated that it had been constructed at a cost of abou $70,000 a mile, some portions costing $98s060 mile as it crosses the backbone of the Rocky Mountains.
 He answered number of questions and said that he was not here to sell stock in the company. but passing through here to see MT. Carroll and had been invited to top over and meet some of his friends. He told how he was at wotk distributing the stock of the company m New England throughout the e>untry, and has a firm belief that it will be the greatest road in the country. Other divisions are contemplated. He was loudly applaud ed at the close

One OF the big railroad systems has
announced its intention OF cultivating
friendly relations with the farmers
who reside along its lines. Possibly
the farmers will be found responsive
to this tender OF the olive branch
There is undoubtedly a deep-seated
prejudice against railroads in many
farming communities. Were It possi-
BILE to remove this prejudice the rail-
roads and the farmers would both be
the gamers.
Most OF the railroad companies in
this country have never troubled
themselves particularly to cultivate
friendly relations with the farmers or
with their patrons in general. AS
result the roads have paid dearly for
their lack OF consideration. In many
counties q railroad cannot hope to win
a lawsuit unless It Is able to make out
for itself an open-and-shut case. Fall
ing In this the road is mulcted for
about all the traffic will bear. Rail-
roads unquestionably are frequently
compelled to pay damage claims that
are exorbitant or uptdst On the cen
trary, many Of then show picayun-
lsh disposition IN setting damage
claims that are palpably just and rea-
sonable and II Is this pennywise pol
icy that is largely responsible for the
antagonism that exists IN rural locaii-

USE CONCRETE sNowsHED
Nearly a Mile Long, Substantial Build
Ing Has Cost Railroad
s5oo,oo0.

The first concrete snowshed ever
constructed has Just been finished in
the heart OF the. Cascade mountains,
on stretch of road near Scenic Hot
Springs slides.
The Great Northern, like the ma
Iority Of western railroads, has a
number of timber sheds, but this road
Is protected throughout every place
where It is possible for slide to
occur, and in order to obtain the best
known protection 1t has In one place
decided upon concrete construction.
This snowshed cost $500,000 and
more than 400 men were employed in
building It. 1t is $500 feet long and
"a feet high on an average. The ten
inch thick roof Is supported by con
crete pillars at Intervals Of 12 feet.
and the back wall is from to II
inches in thickness.
When snow sheds of whatever mate
rial are properly prepared they are
built so that they do not obstruct the
fury OF the slide. with the sloping roof.
the highest part Of which is toward
the mountain. In other words, they
are constructed 80 that when the snow
descends with fury, it slides over
the top Of the wsiting shed and away
from the tracks
The shed just hnished is anchored
directly to the rock and makes semi
artificial rock, which appears as part
Of the mountain. Where the back
wall of the shed is attached to the
rock It is fastened with steel bars
extending into the rock.
Another advantage in this concrete
construction is the ability to leave the
front of the shed open In summer so
that the scenery is unobstructed and
The tunnel is light. In winter It can
be closed If desired as a board side
will prevent the snow from drifting

Permit me to suggest a good way
to determine whether a particular field
you wish grased has any danger lurk-
ing in it. If you will take compar.
atlyely valueless animal and allow it
to Craze for a time. you will be able
to determine very directly whether or
not prussic acid or any other poison
has developed in the cane. A calf
would be suficient for the trial or a
yearling II the calf win not Craze and
II there appears to be no danger, you
ought to let your herd get gradually
used to il probably giving them a 1T.
tie dry fodder at night after they be.
gin grazing on this feed. Having once
started them on this kind Of feed they
should be permitted to Craze steadily
