Unique Incident of W. M. Train's Baltimore-Chicago
Run.
York, Pa. The Chicago express, a
Cast train on the Western Maryland
Railroad, running between Baltimore
ond Chicago, was stopped in a unique
manner shortly before it arrived at
Hanover. The train was running at
a 'fast rate of speed, when suddenly
the engiueer was srprised to hear a
pull on the signal cord. Everybody,
save one conductor, wondered why
the train had stopped so suddenly. The
mystery was explained when it was
announced that a game rooster had
escaped from its coop in the baggage
I car and had perched himself on tht
signal cord and begun to crow lustllj
as the train came to a halt.

Two hundred thousand boys and,
tflrls wanted to grow pork In pljr clubs
this year!
You can lijrure the crtntrlbutlon such
a ills-raising army might make to the
meat supply by what 15,000 mem
bers produced last year approximate
ly 10.1)00,000 pounds of dressed pork.
That contribution means that the
pig clubs have an important part In
the "more meat" program and special
ists of the United States Department
of Agriculture, aided by state club
leaders, are endeavoring to reach the
HOO.OOO goal in membership this year.
The boy-- and sirN are responding
to tin appeal of the state and Federal
worker- assigned to club work, and
Indications now are that the goal will
be attained. Hankers are helping
large numbers of worthy boys and
girls to buy pig- ami are tinillng It a
mo-t successful enterprise. The note
of a pis club member always can be
rated as "gilt-edged" security, it Is
.said.
The pig clubs are conducted co
operatively by the State extension
forces and the U. 'S. Department of
Agriculture. Boys and girls who wish
to join a club should consult their
county agent or write to the Direc
tor of Extension nt their -Ktnte Agricul
tural College. The boys and girls are
organized into clubs and suitable local
leaders secured. The members are
aided In securing pigs; given Instruc
tion In the proper care, feed and
management of swine, and nt the
close of the season the members com
pete for iirlzos for the best work.
These prizes usually are of an edu
cational nature, such as a trip to the
State fair or farmers' short course.
