12 The Conservative. ORNAMENTS STATION GROUNDS. Officers of sovcrnl of the big rnilrond systems are considering plans to induce agents and others concerned to make stronger efforts to beautify station grounds and buildings. During the past year or two particular attention has been given to making the stations more attractive. The Burlington has accomplished a great deal in this direc tion. Last year it issued orders to all employees that the grounds and build ings adjacent to the company's right-of- way must present a neat and attractive appearance. The company's gardener gave his especial attention to beautifying - ing the suburban stations for forty miles out of Chicago. Before last sum mer closed , switch shanties , tool houses , yard offices and round houses had been prettily covered with running vines and the grounds about each building con verted into flue lawns over which shrub bery had been planted. During the coming spring and summer this work will be greatly extended , and ill time the Burlington expects to have the most ornamental station grounds in the west. \V7ANTED Men to learn the barber trade.
