No occupation at the present day furnishes more examples of successful men than that of railroading and perhaps none have risen more noticeable than those who began at the operator's desk. For there are developed qualities which are of highest importance. No man who is not alert and attentive can ever make a trustworthy operator, nor can any man be an operator without learning to bear responsibility. His position often seems minor in importance but if he blunders only once, the sequences may be appalling So it is that we find that many of the men occupying important places in railroad activities have risen from the operator's chair.

Mr. Randall retired from farming for twenty years, but is now living on the farm again, He has carried on general farming, however, making a specialty of hogs, for he believes that the best market for the farmer's gravities in the living form and that such a practice will not only put more money in his pocket but also will constantly improve his land.
