What They Endure Before They Are
Sent to the Scrap Pile.
An average freight car costs about
$3.50, but the refrigerator and special
cars built for carrying p%erishable
goods may cost two or three times
that amount. The average freight car
weighs about $4,000 pounds and has a
carrying capacity of 10000 pounds of
freight.
There has never been a time when
the companies had enough freight cars
to meet the heavy demands Of trade
in seasons of unusual prosperity, and.
though thousands Of new cars are
built every year. a famines occur
every time the seasons crops are
ready to be moved. The number Of
freight cars that are scrapped each
year almost keeps pace with the num-
Der Of new one built.

still useful go into other cars before

The forgetmenot is a delightful i'm.

flower family which includes the Viz:
ginia cowslip, hounds tongue and COM
frey. AS far back as we are able to
trace flower history. says the National
Geographic Magazine. it held an hon.
ored place in the flower garden. and
when America vas settled it was
brought along to cheer the colonist's
austere life and to remind him of the
old roof tree across the billowy sea.
Have you ever noticed the little gold
en- circle around the center Of the flow
er? That circle is put there by the
flower as a honey guide to tell the bee
just where to insert its tongue to get
the richest draft Of nectar and at the
same time to touch both anther and
stigma and thus fertilize the plant.
