Of desire to get ahead of the other fellow. | I have before me a little booklet of eighteen pages which was sent to me by the Chief Signal engineer of the Pennsylvania railroad system. In it he makes plain some rather startling facts about hurry and his study of methods of saving the lives of people who are in too much of a hurry. ; I wish I could just copy the con- tents of the booklet and let you read all of it, because it is not only in- teresting but illuminating. Now we expect the railroad trains to be in a hurry but as a matter of fact they seldom are permitted to hurry. Always the first considera- tion is safety.

A stop of ten seconds by the driv- er of an automobile before crossing the railroad tracks would prevent 75 per cent of the crossing accidents. During the year 1922 there were just 72 people killed in the entire United States by railroad collision and during that same period 11,000 people were killed by automobiles.

The most ardent advocates of na- tional highways in the northeast sections of the land know this. It does not frighten them. They al- ready pay the larger part of the Na- tion’s bills. Why shouldn't they? If 100 people live in a small town and wish to build a quarter of mile of road to a nearby lake, on the shore of which lives one man, do the hundred people stop because the one man will benefit 100 per cent and pay but one per cent? They do not. They build the road.

Lancaster County Farm Bureau News WEEKLY LETTER WRITTEN EX- PRESSLY FOR THE BULLETIN BY THIS WELL KNOWN OR- GANIZATION Members of the Lancaster County Farm Bureau in every section of the county received checks from the Co- operative Commodity Division of the Bureau this week. The checks ag- gregated about $8,000. Not a large amount when distributed over sever- al hundred farmers, but the signifi- cance attached to the small slips of paper is of such far-reaching conse- quence that history has been made, by their distribution. The sending of the cheeks marks the close of the spring fertilizer pur- chase for the members ef the Bu- reau by the Commodity Division. The spring fertilizer pu ase was conducted ng re different lines than have ever » been at- tempted in Lanecas County and was and test of the Lancaster County farmer's belief in the prinei- ples of co-operation. The fertilizers were sold to all far mers, members and non- members alike, at the prevaling market prices. At the close of the purchase, mem- bers were given a rebate based or the actual cost of the materials. The rebates in several ran to almost $200 on a single farmer’s or- der. No one but the Manager of the Commodity Division had an inkling as to how much the rebate per ton would be. The fertilizers were pur- chased by the farmer members of the Bureau on Faith, Faith in their organization which they had them- selves created, faith in the principles of co-operation ‘and the faith that must lie at the base of every enter- prise—faith in their fellow-men. When it is considered that less than four per cent of the farmers in the county took part in this pur- chase, the possibilities that exist when the remainder of the 11,000 farmers of Lanacster County join hands in the organization may be estimated. The $8,000 which was sent to farmers as a rebate on their fertilizers represents a direct saving o them through their co-operation with their fellow-farmers, since the instances { just issued in book form by the as-| sociation, and put on sale at $3 a! orginal price of the materials was at the current market level. It is safc to state that if but one-half of the farmer population of the county joined hands in this undertaking, the results would be stupendous. 0) eet The Coming Chautauqua The date of the Mount Joy Chau- Labor Construction,” | SUFFERED PAIN | FOR YEARS Mrs. Jahr Finally Relieved by ' Lydia E.
