(T'S WORSE San IF 1T WEREN'T Cowcatcher Helped Solve Early Railroad Problems That most familiar of all railroad accessories, the cowcatcher, is a unique American institution, Mitford M. Mathews, University of Chicago dictionary editor, says. No other industry has affected the American language as much as the railroads, which began to play a very important part in the nation’s. culture as early as 1830, according to Matthews. The cowcatcher was called a “cowlifter," a “‘horselifter,’’ and several other titles before someone hit upon the happy combination “‘cowcatcher.” The early cowcatchers were forged of grillwork 10 feet long, extending from the front of the engine to the track, with the foremost section resting on its own pair of wheels. With good reason many people called the contrivance a “pilot.” Developed by the early American railroaders to solve the problem of rescuing stray cattle that wandered on the track, the cowcatcher solved a problem not met in any country. The word came into usage in 1830 when the engineer stopped his train and got help to lift the cattle down from the grill work. Football — Frankie Albert Rose, Queen of Flowers, Enjoys Wide Fopularity The rapid, almost phenomenal {re crease in planting of roses in re cent years bears testimony to the popularity the “‘Queen of Flowers” has achieved in America. The rose is the universal favorite in gardens large ang small all over the country. No other flower scems to give such rich rewards in beauty, fragrance and satisfaction. Ne other flower is more gracious inside the home. What pleases gardeners more than anything else is the ease with which these lovely flowers can be grown. With only a minimum of care, which any ordinary plant requires, roses can produce a pro fusion of lovely and fragrant blose soms in a wide range of colors. Moreover, with the improvements achieved by hybridizers, roses are increasingly sturdy, hardy and resistant to disease. Many of them bloom over a long season from June until late fall so that the gardener with the foresight to plant roses, can keep his home well supplied with this aristocrat of flowers and at the same time be generous to his friends. The joy of recciving a bouquet of freshly cut roses is equaled only by the joy of giving MENLO SCHOOL.
