Reply.-True, both are black,
both have feathered legs, and both
have single combs. However,
whenever approximately true to
breed type, they are quite different
in shape and makeup. The Lang
shan stands well up. on legs of
good length, with head carried well
up The back is short and well con-
caNed; the tail large and well
spread; the legs featlered to the
outer toe. but with the middle toe
smooth and bare. The bottoms Of
the feet are pink or flesh-colored.
Tie whole general appearance is
one Of style and getup. On the
Dtner hand, the Black Cochin has
short neck, carried rather low. The
back is rather long, but owing to
its very full cushion, il appears
short. The tail is short, small and
carried low. The body-in fact.
the specimen Rli over-should be
very full and loose feathered, while
tho Langshan is much more closely
feathered. The legs are snort and
heavily fcHthered to the tip Of out
er toes, the middle toes being well
feathered. The bottoms OF the feet
are yellow-in fact, the whole body
should be yellow when dressed.
The skin Of the Langshan should be
white. True, there are cases where
they have both been bred in a
slipshod manner, and perhaps al

lowed to cross with each other, and
the natural result has been to bring
them very closely together in gen.
eral makeup In the hands Of
careful and judicious breeders,
they are very decidedly different
in type and breed characteristics.
In our estimation, the Langshan is
a much more profitable breed for
the average poultryman to keep for
meat and eggs, being of an active
disposition, while the Cochin il de-

the family. when sitting in the liv-

in the cellar. Mr.. Richards in

had placed himself in most dan

sion occurred. The warning sound
had come from the acetylene gas
plant in the cellar of the home.
The exact cause of the explosion
which followed is unknown. as Mr..
Richards never permitted. around
his property, any such thing as
neglect.

RAILROAD EDUCATIONAL WORK

An important feature of the ex-
tensive educational work which the
PENNSYLVANIA Railroad is carrying
Oh among its employees is the OPP
Grafton of what is called the Sig
nal Examination Car. This is con-
tinually moving from place to place
in charge of an examiner who puts
the men through tests designed to
keep them at a high standard OF
competency.
The car is equipped with minla-
ture signals for the purpose OF ex-
amining employees III their opera
ton. Sight. sense of color, and
hearing are also tested on entrance
to the service and periodically
thereafter.
Approaching the value of direct
personal instruction, the Pennsyl-
yania Railroad is endeavoring IN
every possible way to increase the
efficiency of operation by seeing to
it that employees in the rank and
file are advised continually about
all improvements and innovations
which oo 70 make travelling safer
for the public and railroading less
hazardous for all employees.
The company now has on the
road instruction cars for giving an
brake instruction, lessons IN signal
inc. and lessons in electric carllght-
ing.
