n ELIKF ol trallic congestion In large cities depends
on having ditl'orent levels of travel and continuous
movement, Experts tiave been studying the problem for
many years, anti now one of them, Norman Wilson Storer.
n Westlnghouse engineer, has evolved the “I’i way system."
The illustration shows Imw It would appear if constructed
high above the streets, running front one skyscraper to the
next and on glass-covered bridges across the open spaces
As indicated by the name, it is an arrangement of two
vehicles, continuous trttins or belts of cars running on
parallel tracks with a stationary loading platform along
its entire course.
Passengers are not required to go to stated stations
They can board the first or local train at any point and
it stops every 50 seconds for 10 seconds. The maximum
wait Is 10 seconds. When a gong sounds, gates close and
the local platform starts moving. When it attains a speed
of 17 miles an hour, the second or limited train has
slowed to exactly that speed.
There is another signal, gates on tlie
express open and tlie passengers pass
into tlie express for the major portion
of their trip. At the end of 10 seconds
these gates close, the local starts slow-
ing down for another stop and the.'ex-
press Increases its speed to 22 miles
an hour until time to Slow down for
another transfer. The express moves continuously.
All stations are controlled from one central control
point and the entire system, starts, stops, signals, gates
and speeds are so timed and synchronized that operation
Is Infallible.
With -J.Ot'K) seats per mile of train, the express, travel
ing at an average speed of 20 mites an hour, carries SO,-
000 seats past any given point every hour. Put throe
seats on each local car and you increase this number to
ttl.ooo seats an hour.
Asked to explain the motive power, Mr. Storer said:
“We don't drive through the wheels at all. Axles carry
longitudinal 'T' rails, the flanges of which run. between
vertical shaft rollers or drive wheels at power stations
located every 1,000 feet along the route. These stations
are like stationary locomotives and are in pits beneath
the tracks. Sets of motors propel the drive wheels which
are pressed against five flanges of the T' rails. It is pure-
ly an adhesion drive."

* v first
Buster Boar got over Ids
fright after tie dropped
from the big hemlock tree where
Farmer Brown's Boy had surprised
him feasting on the honey of Busy
Boo tie stopped running. By this time
lie was some distance from tho tree,
for, big as he Is and clumsy as he ap-
pears to be. Busier can run very fast
and can coyer a lot of distance in a
very short time, lie turned and lis-
tened for sounds of some one follow-
ing him, but beard none. Of course
not, for.the very good reason that no
one was following him.
The Green Forest was very still.
Only once did he hear anything to tell
him that there was another living
tiling there. A Merry Little Breeze
wandering through the treetopg
brought him the sound of Sammy Jay’s
voice. It was very faint, but it was
enough to make Buster growl n deep
rumbly-grunibly growl. Sammy Jay
was laughing und Buster knew per
m
,-y.
“Oh, Dear! Oh, Dear Me! I Almost
Wish I Had Never Found That
Honey,” Groaned Buster.
fcetly well why. Sammy was laugh-
ing at him, at the way lie had
dropped out of that tree and run at
the sound of Farmer Brown's Boy’s
yell. It hurt Buster's pride, for
Buster Is no more fond of being
laughed at than any one else.
The Merry Little Breeze passed on
and Buster heard nothing more,
though he listened and listened with
all his might, lie tried to use Ills
nose to find out If there was any
man smell In the ;tir. Yon know
Busier has n very wonderful nose,
and he depends on it a great deal.
But all he could smell was honey.
Yon see It was still smeared all over
his fuce and nose. After a while he
fell sure that no one was following
him. and then he began to think of
other things.
In the Aral place he ached from
the bumps he had received when he
dropped out of that tree, tie bad
been too frightened to fee! them at
the time, but he felt them now. But
worse than thin there were the stings
from the bees. He hadn't minded
these while he was tilling his stom-
ach with that delicious honey, hut lie
did now. It seemed to hint that those
bees had found every tender place on
iiis whole body, lie nclied and he
smarted all over, hut the smarts were
worse than the aches, a great deal
worse. It seemed to him that lie felt
one in a new place every other sec-
ond.
"Oli, dear! Oh, dear met I almost
wish I had never found that honey.”
groaned Buster, “it wouldn't be so,
bad if I hud got all of it (Buster is
very greedy), but to be cheated out
of half of It, and then have to ache
and smart the way I do is dreadful.
I can't stand fids much longer. I’ve
got to do something. |’ve got to find
some mud, and I've got to find It
soon. I'll go crazy if I don’t. There's
nothing like a good cool mud to take
the smart out of bee stings. And 1
guess I need a hath. I'm a mess.
There isn't water enough in the
Laughing Brook for a bath. There’s
just one place for me and that Is the
pond of Baddy the Beaver. Oh, dear!
Oh, deni 4 1 wish 1 was there this
minute.”
> So Buster set out for the pond of
Paddy the Beaver.
Now Farmer Brown’s Boy’s one
thought when he yelled and ran was
to get away from those bees as soon
as possible. At the moment lie quite
forgot Buster Bear. He heard the
era h of breaking branches as Buster
dropped out of the tree, and then he
heard Buster crashing his way
through the Green Forest ns he ran
away, hut he was too busy fighting
angry bees to realize what it nil
meant then. Later tie did and
chuckled ns he thought of what a
fright Buster must have had. The
bees did not follow him far, and pret-
ty soon, quite out of breath, Fnrmer
Brown’s Boy stopped to rest. But It
wasn’t for long. The stings front the
tees smarted too much. My, bow
th >,v did smart I
“Mild,” said Farmer Brown’s Boy
Tve simply got to get some mud. My
face will be swelled up like n balloon
if I don’t. Let me see, this Isn’t far
from the pond of Paddy the Beaver.
There will lie plenty of mud there. I
was going then Anyway."
So Fnrmer Brown’s Boy set out for
the pond of Paddy the Beaver.

production of these .'{.'I herds was 7,41(1

only 22 herds produced ns much as

year, Mr. Arey found two herds where
the fat production averaged 400 pounds
or over of fat. One of these was a
Guernsey herd which produced S.KSS
pounds of milk and IIS pounds of fat
a cow last year, and the other was a
Jersey herd which produced
pounds of milk and 40.1 pounds of fat

Bake thirty-live minutes in a hot oven.
Sour milk with the same amount ol
baking powder and three-fourths of a
teaspoonful of soda may be used in
place of the sweet milk.
The cheapest milk is made from
good pasture. If we could have an
abundance'of good pasture from late
spring to early fall it would make a
lot of difference in our feed costs.
Wo can have better pasture than we

will have to do something about get-
ting it.
Many, of our so-called pastures are
starved almost to death. Then, too,
they are grazed without- rhyme or
reason concerning the needs of grow-
ing plants. It has been repeatedly
demonstrated in many sections of the
country that .pastures will respond
profitably to fertilization and con-
trolled grazing. We have many fa-
vorable reports on the quality and
carrying capacity of sudan grass'
pasture. It may be used to very good
advantage in relieving native pas-
tures of excessive grazing.—Hoard's

Dairying as Business
Dairying is a long-time proposition
and should be figured on that basis.
Hero is something to start with. There
is little difference in appearance be*
tween a herd averaging 220 pounds of
liutterfat yearly and a herd averaging
'-’•‘o pounds of fat. Neither figure is
high. But even at the present ridiculous-
ly tow price of fat that means a. differ-
ence of $S per cow per year and $100
per year on a herd of 20 cows. When
tlie writer was a bit younger it was fig-
ured that a man should pay for his
farm in 20 years. What would this
difference in production amount to in
20 years? The gross difference would
be $3,200. Tlie difference in feeding
costs between tlie two herds would not
he over $1,000 for the 20-year period.
’I lie $2,200 would make a pretty sub-
stantial payment on n farm.—Ex<

Skimmilk for Cows
Oftentimes cows which have had
some* difficulty In calving and heifers
which have freshened very young are
very weak physically for the first
month or two, or longer. This gives
I hem tin increased susceptibility to dis-
ease as well as limiting the milk flow.
•Tollu Arnhalt, Harry Herrick, L. F*.
Kammeyer, and other members of the
Ghlckasnw (Iowa) Herd Improvement
association have found that feeding
sudi Individuals skimmilk often makes
their recovery more rapid and restores
• hem to a healthy condition very quick-
ly. Also, fresh heifers grow more
while they are milking if fed skimmilk.
This Is a remedy which every dairy-
man lias on hand and Is usually rel-
ished by Hie cows.—Successful Furnv
ing.
