BIG MOGULS in u. S.

like those Of two separate engines,
each having two cylinders with four
pairs Of coupled driving wheels.
There is also a pair of small wheels
at each end Of the complete arrange
ment.
These locomotives are capable Of
developing nearly 5000 horsepower, or
enough to drive an ocean liner; and
one of the furnaces consumes four
tons Of coal per hour when the en-
CINE is hauling a full load. The engi-
neer, as the driver Is called In Ameri-
ca, who controls one of these mighty
engines is an important parsonage.
He has three assistants-two men to
stoke and one to oil the mechanism.
A train weighing 1900 tons can be
pulled along by one Of these mon
sters; but this huge weight represents
a comparatively small goods train on
an American railway, and It is pro-
posed to use two OF the new engines,
together with slightly smaller one
of the earlier type, for the heaviest
work. The three engines all pulling
together can haul a train weighing
more than 1000 tons over a very DIFF
ficult track with steep gradients and
sharp curves, the rise being nearly
100 feet per mile for a considerable
distance.
These enormous trains are for car
rying goods. or freight" as the
Americans term It; but of course the
trucks are huge compared with many
of our railway wagons, which only
hold about eight tons each. An
American freight wagon carries from
40 to 30 tons. and itself weighs an
other 20 tons. so that a train of say,
60 Of these trucks loaded with heavy
material such as coal or ore would
easily make up the weight quoted.

INVESTIGATION ON
SOUTHERN FARMS
Lespedeza Destined to Become
important Feed Crop.
HIGH GRADE HAY AND FORAGE
Plant Is to South What Glover and Al
faIfa Are to Other Sections
Grows on Any Soil and Needs
Little Attention.
(By G. H. ALFORDN

Botanists and experimenters are
constantly searching the world for az
ricultural plants, especially of the
legume family, that will furnish
abundant crops Of high-grade hay and
forage. LespedeZa, or apan clover, a
little plant OF Asiatic origin, and un-
I'll quite recently little known. is des-
tined to become the most important
6ll-round crop for large areas of the
southern United States.
LespedeZa Is an annual. appearing
after killing frost Is over, and lasting
until freezing weather in the fall. It
may always be distinguished from 9TH
er small wild clovers by a small pur-
pie bloom, which does not appear un-
III August. The seed resembles un.
hulled clover and are sold and planted
In this shape. 1t has long tap roots
andsa profuse system of lateral roots.
The plant maintains a vine-like ap-
pearance when thin on the soil. Over a
large part OF the territory covered the
growth is dwarfish, from four to six
inches, which leads to the impression
that II is only fit for grazing. In the
southern part OF the belt 1t attains
growth of from IL to 80 inches, and is
so thick on the land as to yield from
two to four tons Of dry hay per acre.
Lespedeza is to the south what
clover and Alfalfa are to other sec
tons. 1t has the advantage over them
Of growing on practically any soil
and with much less cost and attention
than either Of the others. The plant
is equally hardy and at home on poor
clay soils, sandy hillsides. alluvial
bottoms or crawfish flats; the growth,
OF course, corresponding to the fer.
tility Of the soil. In feed value 1t
equals red clover and is little inferior
to alfalfa.
AS a soil renovator nothing sur
passes lespedaza, from the fact that 1t
makes considerable growth on the
poorest lands and will increase In size
and denseness each season, while
nearly all other legumes must BE
planted. fortified and doctored to

BULLDOG Furnishes A BEAR
Animal Gets 6ruln by Throat, Who
Struggles In Vain to Release
the Teeth.

Red Lodge, Mont.-Beware of the
bulldog! For further specifications Of
the dangers involved apply to NJ. NJ.
Moore of Belfry, Mont, and his pet
black bear. The Moore bruin had q
notion until recently that he could
put up something of a scrap-even
the suggestion of an encounter with as
common an adversary as a dog would
have been an insult to his dignity.
The bulldog to which the Belfry
bear is indebted for it's education along
fighting lines is the property Of H. ].
Bowers, a rancher in the Clarke Fork
valley. The Bowers dog is the king
OF his kind In the Belfry region, and
he had 80 persistently taken every
other animal Of his species to clean
ing" that there was more or less spec
ulation on a clash between him and
the bear.
The dog proved at once that he was
the Napoleon of his breed in the STRAIT
egg of warfare. Bruin reared up on
his hind legs. expecting the dog would
adopt similar tactics and thus prove
easy meat. There was nothing stir
ring along that line.
The Bowers dog came tearing in.
ramming his powerful head into the
bears midriff. Bruin was bowled over
as II he were a sack of wheat. Like
fash, the dog jumped for his adver-
sary's throat, sinking his teeth into
the hide and flesh. 1t was his first
taste of bear meat-and he liked It
The bear struggled desperately to
shake himself free, but his efforts to
break away, only enabled the dog to
drive his relentless molars deeper.
The bears confidence soon vanished.
His windpipe was being squeezed. and
when the dog began putting on extra
pressure Sir Ursus yelped with all the
enthusiasm Of a pup that has been
whipped and wants to run away.
Perceiving that the bear was
whipped and had quit, bystanders sue
ceeded in separating the dogs teeth
from bruins throat, and, once free
the bear beat it to a point of safety
