 There is no question of the sound ness of the police commissioner stand on the motorcycle-aut utom obile matter. Motorcycles have the speed. but they carry but one man. and they are not the safest equipment ina sinable when pavements are wet. The fact that motorcycle officers lost total of 300 days from duty last year because Of injuries sus- tained while riding is . strong argu- ment in favor of the decision to cut down on their use, whereas the uutom obiles are handy to carry ar extra man or two and can be used in all sorts of weather.
 l6 Per Cent Reduction in
 PersoNs Hurt by Railroads
 New records in safety work were again registered by the American railroads last year. ThIs is the sixth successive year of progress reported by the steam carriers since they started their organized safety pro- gram in 1923.
 The total number Of persons tn- jured in all classes of railway acci- dents in 192s-passengers as well as employes-showed reduction of ap proximately 1s per cent as compar- cd with the preceding year. accord ing to . report just published by the bureau of statistics of the interstate commerce commission. This accom- plishment ts . direct result of the railroads' unremitting campaign for greater safety among both employees and the public.
 The United States department of commerce estimates that the annual economic loss to the nation through accidents. injuries and occupational diseases is upward of tl,b00, ,000. .00O. AS q result of their vigorous safety ampaigns, the railroads stand high in the list of American industries which are steadily striving to reduce this annual loss to the nation. That safety and the railway indus try are becoming synonymous is in dicated by the commissions analysis of the casualty rate to employees. or the year 1928 total casualties pei million man. hours amounted to 18.- e, a reduction of l6 per cent as compared with 1927.
 The problem Of reducing accidents more that of protecting people for whose safety the railways have had little or no responsibility than of protecting those for whose safety the carriers have been responsible. The railways have no responsibil- ,ty for the safety of those who tres pass upon their property, and they have only partial responsibility for the safety of those who cross their tracks at highway grade crossings. Ten years ago the number killed at highway crossings was 1862, or 20 per cent of the total number killed on railway property. In 1928 the HuHlpeT hHlea iIt highway NIoosA'so was 2.6Gs--the largeft number in his'ory-and vas almost 70 per -tn. of the total fatalities of all classes. The failure 10 effect still greater reduction in all fatalities has been due principally 10 the increase in ac- cidents at highway crossings. and this in turn has been due 10 the enormous increase in the use Of | motor vehicles,

Experimental Plots Seen by Potato
Growers

experimental IlOlS oeeH by TOtdtO
Growers
Farmers who attended the annual
Worcester county potato tour in that
county on June 81, among other
things, were given the opportunity to
see the results Of demonstrations and
experiments which have been carried
on there for a number of years. One
of the more important of these dem
onstrations, according to DR.. R. A.
Jehle ,pathologist for the University
of Maryland Extension Service, was
the seed source plots where, after ex-
perimentation for three or four years
it was found that northern grown seed
gave the largest yield; mountain
grown seed largest, and fall grown
seed the smallest yield. However, the
yield from one kind of fall grown seed
was approximately the same as the
yield from one of the northern seeds.
The difference in yield from various
individual growers in the same To-
cality was as great or greater than
the average difference in yield Oh
tanned in seed from different sources.
These results indicate that the meth
DDS employed in the production of po-
tato seed stock are more important
factors in influencing yields than the
locality in which the seed is grown.
The tourists were also able to in
spect the plots where certified and I'M
certified seed were planted. The re-
suits of these paintings for the last
five years showed the average yield
for certified seed to be 1882 bushels
per acre while for uncertifed it was
only 1888 bushels. In the majority
of the tests it was found that the seed
which came up and matured the
earliest gave the largest yield. The
smallest yields were obtained from
plots with the largest number of miss
ing, weak and diseased plants.
