THE PEANUT ASSISTS IN
INVESTIGATION PROGRAM

Recent experiments with the pea
u have led to discoveries which
tend to show that we have been ov-
erlooking one of the best oppor-
tunities in agriculture in Texas.
According to the Extension Service
Bulletin e. S. 8 issued by the A. Il
NJ. College of Texas, the peanut
produces abundantly in many sec
tions of the state and is cultivated
easily and at a very little expense.
But about the only market so far
developed is the peanut-stand man
on the street III so our acre
age has been low.
The School of Domestic Economy
at the University of Texas has been
experimenting with the peanut as
an article of food. 1t has been
found that by devious means of
preparation many delightful and
nutritive dishes for the table can
be made from peanuts. Not only
are these dishes pleasing to the
taste, but they have a food value
more than six times greater than
beefsteak. and three times greater
than milk.
A book of recipes ranging all the
way from peanut biscuits to pea
nut candy has been nv tine
School of Domestic Economy. which
are distributed upon request free
of charge. 1t is hoped that this
will result in a greater variety for
the table, cheaper food and an in
creased demand for an agricultural
product that will aid materially IN
carrying out the proposed diversi-
fication program.

CHILDREsS. Texas. August a.
II. =. Rogers. an employee Of Stone

here Monday afternoon. Rogers and
his wife were en- route to San Fran

While driving about one-half mile
south Of Red river bridge. Rogers
dropped down into the seat. His wife
stopped the car and assisted him out.
Blood by that time was flowing pro-
fusely from his mouth.
DR.. q. G. Castleberry OF Ben
Wheeler. a returning tourist from
Colorado. was the first party to give
assistance. He informed Rogers that
he was shot. The bullet is suppos-
ed to be a spent ball from a small
bore high-power rifle. 1t struck Rog-
ers under the chin, severing the
windpipe, then ranging downward.
He was brought to Childress. bat
on account of the X-ray machine al
the local hospital being out Of or
der, 1t was impossible to locate the
ball. Rogers was sen from here to-
night to Fort Worth, where he will
be given further medical aid.
Local officers are at work or the
case, but as Rogers statement shows
that no report of a gun was heard,
it is a hard problem to find the party
responsible for the accident.

BILE track road with the device In ques-
ton. and has used the stops for a year
with complete success, even wnen the
track was covered with snow and ice,
the general use by railroads of some such
device would seem to be inevitable. The
result In the saving of life and property
can hardly be estimated, for the engineer
as a factor in the prevention of collisions
will hereafter be cut out entirely, the
mere setting of the signal ensuring a
stoppage of the train. And when the
engineer is relieved from this RESPONSE
bility the strain that so often wrecks his
nervous system will also be removed.
Automatic train stops have been patent
ed in stacks, and doubtless many of them
are capable of commercial development
and will be so developed; but the particu-
lar stop that has worked so well in prac-
tice is the Miller. and the road on which
It has been used is the Chicago and East
ern Illinois,
The Locomotive Firemen and Engine
mems Magazine says:
1.-The most casual examination of pres
ent conditions testifies toward the recep-
tiveness Of the public for immediate and
substantial improvement in means for
safeguarding against accidents upon our
railroads.
Many plans have been devised for con-
trolling the movements of trains. 1t has
been demonstrated. however. that the
only system that can be relied upon is
one that eliminates human agencies from
its operation. So. the automatic system
of signalling came into use. However,
a signal system displaying signs along
the right OF way which the engineer Is
expected to see and correctly interpret
under all conditions. Is greatly handi-
capped in its efficiency during stormy
and foggy weather-so much so. in fact.
that In the latter case 1t Is rendered prac-
tically unreliable, and It is matter OF
record that a large per cent of collisions
and switch accidents are caused by IN"
engineers inability or failure to properly
read the signals.
THE Miller system. while working In
conjunction with any standard system or
signalling does not depend upon them for
its successful operation in controlling
trains. Even those railroads which have
adopted the automatic block signal, as
well as those using systems which are
manually operated by persons at the
ends of blocks, still have wrecks. be-
cause human agency Is particularly ha-
BILE to mistake. and even when the proper
signals are shown the engineer may for
some reason fai' to properly observe
them.
THE science OF railroading Is to keep
trains In motion ard traffic open, and
one OF the greatest sources fer delayed

hours. A successful train control must
be so applied that it will stop trains,
prevent collisions, etc, yet the actual
control of the train must always remain
in the hands of the engineer.
The first step in the solution of thu
problem is the provision of automatically
and electrically operated apparatus &c
set the. signals. The second step Is the
provision OF means whereby the train
will be automatically stopped in case Of
danger, even though the signals are un-
observed and not obeyed by the engineer,
In the Miller system these two steps
have been successfully taken, and the
apparatus has been tested and found to
possess all of these qualities.
1T Is not enough. however, to take
these two steps. for in the event that the
apparatus should. In whole or In part.
become imperative, the circuits will be
open and hence the train would be un-
protected. In the Miller system the oper-
alton OF the apparatus for stopping the
train depends upon the absence of the
current in counterdistinction to the flow
of current i'm a closed circuit II the
whole or any part OF the system should
get out of order the train will be auto
matically stopped, and hence prevented
from accident.
THE trains in their travel pass over
ramps located either In the center or at
the side of the track. and the brake ap-
plying apparatus carried by the engine
Is operated by the ramps. In the event
that the ramp Is in connection with the
source of the electrical energy, the brake
applying apparatus will be rendered In
operative and the train allowed to pass.
but should this ramp be disconnected
from the source of power the brake ap-
plying apparatus will cause the brakes to
be set and stop the train
The mechanism Is so designed and
constructed that II can be installed on
any steam or electric road and in no way
changes standard conditions.
The cab mechanism is very simple
and In no way interferes with the hand
ling Of the locomotive The apparatus
automatically handles the regular run
ming valve. carrying 1t to predeter-
mined position. The same movement
closes the throttle. The engineer re-
leasing the brakes in the usual manner
also releases the throttle-holding device.
When the brakes are applied and tho
throttle closed they remain in that POSI-
ton until released BY the engineer"
