Some idea of the attention that the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad is now paying to its passenger traffic may he grtineil from the fact that during the past eighteen months nearly 800 passenger ears received thorough and ordinary- repairs, 000 being repainted. Nearly all of the equipment is now Royal Blue and most of it is equipped with Pintsch gas, the Pintseh light being used on local as well as through trains. Last year’s crop was so good in Manitoba that a good number of the farmers have been able to pay the first cost of their land and improvements out of this year’s profits.
