For several weeks pest intormatton has been coming to tbs agricultural depart- irie»t from almost every section of the stnto going to show that the jwople of the state have deter¬ miner! to raise more wheat than over, and have planted accordingly. Colonel li. F. Wright, ot the agricultural depavtm«nt, in an in¬ terview of the Macon Telegraph, twys the whole state is becoming stirred up on the subject of small grain crop, :u»d that he attributes tlio increased interest in this branch of agriculture to the con- Htant and persistent efforts to show the farmers tho neoerisity of rais¬ ing more wheat, oats and other small grains. -Southern Record. “It was way buck in the seven¬ ties,” said an old engineer, “I wa* pulling the ‘limited’ east from Council Bluffs to Chicago over the Rook Island. Tho night was bit¬ terly cold. We had /rone about, twenty miles out and had stopped at a night office tor orders and had started up again, when the fireman reached over and said: ‘There is a hobo on the pilot; saw him get on at the station.’ ‘Sure,’ I said. ‘Go out on the running board and see if he’s there yet.’ The fireman did as he wan ordered to do and returned with tho in¬ formation that the hobo was still there. U ( Well, snid I, ‘it’s a bitter cold night, and if he can stand it out there I am willing he should ride with me.’ And <*o we went to¬ ward Chicago with old ‘211’ bark¬ ing like sixty at the low joints ahead and forgetful of our ‘head- end’ passenger on tho pilot. “By and by, by the faint glim¬ mering of the headlight, I thought I saw ahead what seemed to bo a buuch of cattle on the track. Ah we approached it tho bunch scorned to grow larger, it wa# #ow too Lite to do anything, so 1 just ]mlled her wide open and old 211 hit that bunch of cattle ,ka-bif.’ To paraphrase the language of Tennyson, who glides into rapt¬ ures of admiration over the charge ot the Light. Brigade at Balaklavn, there was just simply cattle to the right of us, cattle to the left of us and cattle to tho rear of us, but none any more in front of ur. After it was over our thoughts re¬ verted to tho hobo on the pilot. ‘Go out and see if he is still there,’ I said. “Well,” said an old brakeman, under wliose feet the frests of many winters crackled as ho wend¬ ed hm m the dark over a many long train of box ears and who had been listening to the story. “Well’ said he, “was he killedl” “No,” replied the engineer. “There he sat., as large as any ho bo could ait, on the pilot, with an oyrtor can milking one of those blamed cows.” East anollee Locala J.
