UNIQUE STEPS
viii Be Adopted by Baltimore
and Ohio to Add to Comfort
of Summer Travel.
tspEelAL 70 THE rrLroRAA,

BALTIMORE, June s - Unique
steps will be adopted to add to the
comfort of summer travel on the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad, as set
forth in a circular just issued pro-
viding for the deodortzing of live
stock trains in transit.
No longer will the sense of smell
suffer shock once the new rule goes
into effect, nor will obnoxious odors
be detected when passenger trains
meet long strings of live stock cars
on the way to the packing house, for
the new plan provides that hogs be
showered. The shower baths Wis be
administered at terminals and at
resting stations at which live stock
is fed and watered. Attention will
be given to the cleanliness Of cattle,
horses and sheep, SO that the cars in
which they are hauled may be cleaned
enroute.
The railroad has not decided how
many live stock bath houses will be
required to carry out the require
ments of the new order, but it is
argued that ADDED to the comfort
which the travelling public will enjoy
as result OF 1t the animals will get a
IN better condition upon arrival at
destination.
