RURAL MAIL DELIVERY
Estimated Cost of Complete Sys. tenn Would be About
 S24,000, ,00O.

A. w. Machen, general superin- tendcnt of the United States mail service, has placed in the hands of First Assistant Postmaster General WYnne, a comprehensive report containing recOmmenda- tions regarding free mail delivery and statement of what q com plete rural service would cost the country annually.
 The annual gross cost of com plete rural free service through out the United States will approx innate $24 ,000, 900, according to the report of Mir. Machen.
 The remaining 700,0 square miles not now covered by a rural free delivery service will require 26,000 or P, ,000 carriers, i'll addi :. ton to those now employed mak- ing the entire force when the ex- tension of the servit is cCmplet- ed, within the next thlee years, 10000. After this extension Is completed the annual rate of in- crease in the appropriations is ex- peeted not to exceed s or , per cent, the rate maintained in other branches of the postal servIce, To extend the service 12,000 routes q year until 1t becomes universal, <, the report says, will require such largely increased appropriations that the annual postal deficit for the next two or three years will likely reach $8,0o0, ,000 or $10, ,009,- 000, if not more but when the service Is completed the additI0n- al revenue will soon reduce the deficits to present figures, if 1t does not wipe them out.
 In the fiscal year 1902, l2, 103 petitions for tue service were til- e'l, making total OH July of 2,646, which exceeded by over 1000 the whole humber ill the preceding four years. Since July petitions received have averaged ever 6p0 month. With the amount required for routes to be- rin December 1 th4 entire appro- prialion has been absorbed, Ieav- ing on December l fully 1, 700 routes for which no approplia- lion is available. This number will probably he increased hy Jan uaiy to at least 2,500.
 Mt. Wynne and Mr. Machen Say that to comply with the de- mands of the people and of mem

bers of congress the department will require an additional appro- pliation otherwise further estab- lishmeut of the service will be deferred until July next. If ad- ditional funds are granted, 15,000 rural free delivery letter carriers will be in active service by May 1. The estimates call for ten divi- sion superintendents, an increase of three.

A BUMPER CORN CROP
More Than 2 1-2 Billion Bushels of Corn We're Raised in
 the s. This Year.

The present seasons yield of corn will be in excess of ,, DOG, ,000. 900 bushels-the largest com crop ever produced in the United States. These figures exceed those of last year by fully 1000, ,000, 900 bushels. It Is a s'bumper" crop we have to be thankful tor this year, and the benefcent result should be manifest in the country at large, and in no respect more than upon railroad transportation. Every box car will be called into requisition, and q more solid basis will be given to our much vaunted prosperity.
 The foregoing statistics are those of the agricultural department Ut Washington, and with the single exception of wheat, this usually reliable authority presents crop estimates! that could not we'll be more satisfactory. While there is falling off in this seasons wheat figures, 1t IS not sufficiently large to materially affect the price of Hour. Next to corn and wheat, perhaps the general consumer is more interested in reasonably priced potatoes than m the price of other food stutis. The Ameri- can people are great consumers of lreland's staple food crop, and when the suceulent tuber is high, Il touches the popular stomach. People ought not to have to huy potatoes Ill paper sacks this WiH- ter. The presents crop anouiii, to quite loo, ,000, 900 bushels, oi fully one-third more thnn last sea- sons yield. The long deficiency ln hay and oats will be termiaa- ted by Il crop above the average i'll quality and quantity Oats will measure 988, ,632 ,000 bushels III 1902, against 736, ,808, 72l bushels in 1901. The average of hay per acie is given at httle more than Il ton amt half agalnst one ana one-fourth tons last season, aud an average of l29 for tue pas ten years. This should also have a good effect on the live stock market, Tn common with corn. Rye and barley also show Il sub stantial increase. while fruit is unusually abundant. Apples will no longer command fancy prices.
 Foreign crop statistics for the year are not yet available, but from the condition of staple ce- reals in other parts of the globe, 1t is likely that Ameri Gu will have an ample export outlet for any oyerplus. On the whole. our ag> rlcultural prosperity is a matter for national eongratulation.

Good Health

and pure blood are inseparable. If your blood is bad, your health must suf- fer. Poor blood allows the body to lose vitality just as poor fire under the boiler allows the steam to run down. From poor blood to impure blood is but a step, and impure blood is mother to a large percentage of human ills. Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic is an antidote for both poor and impure blood, for it is both 8 builder and purifier food and a medicine. It is the best combi- nation of the kind known to medical science, and its success for nearly half a century has led 10 it's endorsement by thousands of medical men who have been unable to find substitute.

MORRISON, HEATWoLE's HEIR.
Republicans Believe. County Man Is the
Machine Candidate.

HePuoiicans Believe County Man Is the
Machine Candidate.
T. w. Morrison, of Carver county,
seems to have the pole in the race for
republican nomination to congress in
the Third district. 1t is now generally
peneved that he is the favored candi-
date OF the HeatwOle forces so far as
those forces remain intact
The authoritive announcement of
Heatwole's retirement and its attendant
developments have put an entirely new
aspect on the situation. Under pledge
OF secrecy Mr.. HeatWole had positively
assured friends several weeks ago that
he would not again be candidate It
was then, as now believed that the Sc
crecy was In the interest of a favored
candldate. But it was then believed
that Representative E. A. Whitford, of
Dakota county, was the heir to the
Heatwole political estate.
AT that time HeatWole casually sug-
gested that Morrison was much talked
of as candidate, but he was not taken
seriously, and no later than a week ago
Mr.. Whitford's friends confidently ex-
pected that the Dakota county man
was it. Mr. Whitford's announcement
that he would notIbe candidate, made
Monday and after3a partial tour of the
district, threW9 the prophets in a heap
and caused 'them,to bark back to the
original suggestions of Heatwole.
The Heatwofe interest in the Morri-
son candidacyis made more evident by
the attitude of the men who for years
have been Identified with battles wag-
ed by the Noftnfield man. They are
openly and apparently enthusiastically

Petition In Bankruptcy.

Eugene L. Snyder, the defendant in a
sued for separation for the avowed pur-
pose of indicating herself in the eyes of
the world, has filed a petition in volun-
tary bankruptcy in the district branch
of the federal court.
The list of liabilities contained in the
schedule aggregate $1,286, while the only
available assets are household furniture,
valued at 500. The debts were mostly
contracted in Glasgow, Mont, Minot, N.
D., and st. Paul. MINI. Snyder is an en-
gineer by. trade, and lived at Minot and
Glasgow for number of years while in
the employ of the Great Northern railway
The debts consist mostly of household
bills, all in small denominations. Two
or three promissory notes given in Glas-
cow, that run up into the hundreds, help
to swell the fund considerably.
