THERE has been so much complaint
to the postoffice department regarding
free rural delivery boxes, that it is said
the Postmaster General intends to let
down the bars to the manufacturers of
mail boxes, and not let the fourteen
favored manufacturers have the mon
opoly to themselves. Over Sc boxes
we're submitted to the postal depart
ment last winter, and only IA were con-
sidered good enough for use on free
rural delivery routes. There are many
good mail boxes on the market, but
which cannot be used because not hav-
ing the approval of the postal authori-
ties. Owing to much complaint, and
many times from congressman them
selves, who threaten to make roar,
the department will let down the bars
and allow a few more mail box manu-
facturers to get into the fold.

LABOR DAY.

Labor Day occurred on Monday.
While in the smaller towns the day
is little observed, yet The day is hon
ored by being designated as legal
holiday, and most people are mindful
of it's real significance. Labor as
broad as the earth and as deep as the
sea has its summit in heaven" Such
is the inscription on tablet to COM
memorate the great -four mill explo-
sion in Minneapolis years ago, and
there is no greater nor grander tribute
to the nobility Of labor, for in whatever
rfeldrit.is found high Or low estate
labor is@:the keystone of@-happiness

life would be dull indeed. To preserve

~ RURAL SCHOOL CONSOLIDATION.
Burial school consolidation and trans
portation of pupils at public expense is
a. new proposition in Minnesota. It
has been tried in number of eastern
states with excellent results, and the
township system has proven successful
in some of the western states. The
principal objection to it seems to be in
a deep rooted prejudice for the old
5neighborhood school. The factSis that
consolidation has invariably raised the
average standard Of the rural school,
better teaching and better equipment
of schools have been~:secured, and it
has been" accomplished at an actual
economy of expenditure. There are
many localities in Minnesota where
the adoption of the system would prove
beneficial. 1t would be a great i'm
provement over the present custom of
organizing new small districts, or con-
stantly changing the limits Of existing
ones.-DG,cson Sentinel.

PRICE OF POTATOES.

Probably the increased cost Of pota-
toes and apples affects the people gen
orally to the greatest extent. The
country usually consumes what pota-
toes it produces and more. Last years
production was 2lO,926, 800 bushels;
that of 1899, 22S, 7ss, 1882 bushels, that
of 1898, 192,2O6, 1873 bushels; that of
1897, only 164,0OQ,000 bushels The
present condition of the potato crop is
given by the department of agriculture
as 623. In 1897 the August condition
of the crop was '77.9. Thus it is evil
dent there will be a production below
that of 1897, at least relative to popu-
lation. The outlook, consequently, is
not favorable for much lower. prices
for potatoes than now prevail, and
there may be a further ADVANCE
