Talk is getting cheaper every day!
Or nearly every day, for the competing
telephone companies in the state are re-
ducing toll rates on all the lines and it is
getting to point where it is almost as
cheap to talk as it is to keep still. The
Badger State company made cut this
week which enables Edgerton to COM
municate with neighboring points at a
very small expense. It now costs but
ten cents to talk to GAINESVILLE, ten cents
to Evansville, Madison and Beloit fifteen
cents each for day service and ten cents
for night. Rates to other points are re-
duced proportionately. Good service
