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.

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
