"The Baltimore and Ohio Company
has an agricultural department., and
the head of that department is
graduate from an agricultural college
besides being real farmer. He and
his three assistants devote their en-
tire time to matters affecting the well
fare of the farmers who live along
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. We
have encouraged the use of lime on
soil where tests showed it would be
! beneticial; we have encouraged the
! breeding of blooded stock and the
raising Of purebred fowls, and we
have assisted in operating instruction
trains for farmers along the Balti-
more and Ohio line. We have done
this because we believed that doing
such things would tend to make the
farmers along the Baltimore and
Ohio more prosperous, and we know
that prosperous farmers travel more
and ship more freight than those who
are not prosperous. The railroads
and the farmers have much in COM
mon; they should be friends-they
should be good neighbors.
I'VE VINO are so fortunate as to
have our homes in the United States
have much to feel thankful for. We
live in one of the best and richest
countries in all the world. | refer, of
course, to its wealth of natural re-
sources, such as good farm land, good
climate, ample-almost unlimited
supply of coal, iron, copper, salt, TIM
Der, etc. We have good form of
government, and if at any time we
have a poor administration, it is our
own fault. We do not need to have
a revolution in our country in order
to change our public officers, or to
improve the character of our public
service; it is only necessary for us to
go to the polls and vote. You will all
soon reach the age when you will be
entitled to vote under our laws You
have not only the right to vote when
of voting age, but it is your duty as
a citizen to do so. You should study
the history of our country and a.
quaint yourselves with its policies and
traditions. You should read about the
doings of Congress and the State leg
islatures. You should read about the
men who are in the public offices in
your own State as well as about those
who represent your State in Wash
ington, and when you are old enough
to vote, you should vote for the ones
whose views and public record seem
right to you. Only in this way
there is no other-can our country
continue to be we'll governed and
prosperous.
