BdldWin Locomotive Would
Seem to Haze Bright Future

Samuel NJ. Vauclain, president of
the Baldwin Locomotive Works, re-
Gently returned from Europe with
several million dollars worth Of
contracts from the Roumanian gov
ernment and what he termed "a
very satisfactory amount of busi-
ness from Southeastern Europe. But
the most Interesting part of Mr..
Vauclain's statement upon his
homecoming was his declaration
that he regarded the present out
look for the Baldwin Locomotive
Works to be the greatest in the his
tory of the company. A keen stu
dent of Industrial conditions, Mr..
Vauclain threw some interesting
light upon the present situation on
the other side OF the Atlantic. He
declared that the equipment needs
OF Europe are tremendous, that
country needing more locomotives
now than all the shops can build
IN the next ten years. This would
seem to indicate that the big loco
motive companies like Baldwin and
American Locomotive should obtain
sumcient business to keep them
pusy for a long time. 1t was Mr..
Nauclain's second visit to Europe
within the past six months. and he
iert commission there represent
ing the Baldwin Company. so it win
not be surprising to hear of more
oroers from foreign governme nts
from time to time.

MONEY.

Although the wish 'is father to

Directors Of the company are
scheduled to meet on May ~ to
take action on the dividend, and
there has been considerable dts
cussion as to the possibilities Of q
stock dividend. In the last nine
years the property account has been
written down s6,01S,194, while S10,-
051.725 has actually been added to
the equities behind the stock, a to-
tai of s16.0Ss.s1s. which is equal
to $50 a share on the common
stock
While there is no Official author
ity for the general belief that
Baldwin Locomotive may cut a
melon" some time this year.
there are many who believe that
action will be taken.
The various plants of the COM
pany are working at or near capac-
ity and the company's books show
orders which should keep the plant
running at that pace for many
months. Mr.. Vauclain looks for the
best year since the organization of
the corporation eighty-nine years
ago, and in addition TO its large
foreign orders domestic business
has displayed . surprising increase
since the return of the railroads to
private ownership. 4 final settle
ment of the railway situation will
probably mean that Baldwin will
receive additional contracts.

No purveyor of billboard advertising
pretends that outdoor display con-

to remind the consumer Of a commodity
that he has been advertised elsewhere.
An advertising solicitor was discus

at desk facing window which over
looks a huge billboard. The business
man spoke highly of poster advertising
as an efficient means of impressing
the name Of a product on the public
His friend took hold of the back of
the swivel chair on which the other
man was sitting and swung it around
with its back to the window Then he
said.
What's advertised on that billboard
you look at all day."

The billboard advocate hesitated-

il was rival product that was ex-
plotted on the billboard.
Billboards are Objectionable en- aes-

uses. One of these, as We have said.
is to serve as reminders of selling ar

there is room to tell story and asst

THE SMALL CITY GARDEN

"The surest success in gardening is
possible only when a plan is carefully
worked out and religiously followed"
says Frank E. Mccall, extension horti-
culturist at State college. Efficient
gardening consists in keeping every
foot of ground occupied with the pro-
duction of some food crop during the
growing season. This means the use
of one Of the following methods:
81. Succession in cropping or the
ground from which an early one has
been removed; for example, stringless
beans followed by beets.
49, Successive planting, The plant
ing at regular intervals Of, say, two
weeks, of a particular variety, such
as Golden Bantam sweet corn.
"3. Companion or double cropping,
where two kinds of vegetables are
planted on the ground at the same
time One crop natures early and is
removed before the other fully occu-
pies the ground; for example, tomato
plants among radishes or lettuce
Plans for home gardens with instruc-
tions regarding their care and sugges-
tions as to the varieties Of garden

conditions are contained in extension

sion division of State college.
