FREE RURAL DELIVERY.
This Is II subject In which Every Pro-
gressive Farmer should Taken
Deem Interest.

The advantages of free mail dcliv-
cry il, the country are so manifold
that the subject should be of vital in
terest TO every farmer. And il coln-
try people were us alive to their own
interest as they should be, daily
mail would soon be an established
fact in every farm community.
The superintendent of the bureau of
free delivery notes and reports the
following benefits growing out of the
system:
First, marked increase in the post
al receipts, many routes already sup
porting themselves; second, decided
advance in the value of farm lands in
communities reached by rural free
delivery. the advance being moder-
ately estimated at three to five dol
lars per acre: third, n pronounced i'm

Good Mules in Demand.

Considering what it has cost to
produce him the mule is selling as
well as any other live stock Just now.
Good big mules are comparatively
scarce. and the buyers for the Brit
ish government have relieved .thc
market of goodly number of the
smaller and medium-sized animals.
Breeders of mules. like breeders of
horses. restricted their operations
during the depression. with the re-
suit that there is only Il moderate
supply now at time of eNtraor-
binary requirements. Everything
points to Il revival of mule breeding
now. Breeders of jacks report an I'M
preccdcnted demand for good mule
getters.-National Stockman.

shall be kept in good condition;
fourth, better prices to farmers for
produce, by being in closer touch with
the market; fifth, educational advan-
tages.
And these are only few of the
benefits which wideawake country
people can readily see for themselves
will accrue to them from a free daily
mail.
Deprived of many social privileges,
country people depend more upon
their reading matter to keep in touch
with the spirit of the times. than do
their city neighhors, who may depend
more upon the daily association with
their fellowmen to keep them up to
date.
And with new and improved farm
machinery comes more leisure to rha
farmer for reading and study and
with the improved conditions great
err desire for mental development and
a realization that self-culture is their
only salvation from growing rusty
and falling down intellectually.
1t is true that many farmers think
it is not worth while to take many
papers and magazines when they can
get their mail only once or twice a
week. and the accumulation of read
ing matter becomes stale and unprofit-
able, but daily delivery would soon
change this feature of the case. for no
class of people feel the need of keep
ing in touch with the outside world
through the medium of the press
more than those who reside in iso-
lated farm communities.
The independent farm telephone is
with us. and with free mail delivery
the isolation of farm life. OF which we
hear so much, would be thing of the
past, and farm people who live up to
their privileges will be cna blpd to
keep up with the possession in this
progressive age, and also receive some
substantial benefits from the federal
government. of which they are now
deprived. And should congress see fit
to shut ont all matter of a Fraudulent
type from the mails, millions of dol
lars would be saved to the government
for free rural delivery.-Lizzy Clarke
