@. L. Smith OF Minnesota, who held
farmers institutes throughout this coun-
try for the Oregon Railroad & Naviga-
tion company few years ago, declared
this is naturally dairying country and
that it is destined to become one OF the
best dairy districts in the United States.
He said Few countries / have visited
have the natural advantages for dairying
that this country has, and when your
people become convinced that dairying
will pay better than any other industry
they will engage in it and the Palouse
country will be cut up into small dairy
farms, will support many times its pres
ent population and the dairy farmers
will make more money than your wheat
farmers ever have made. Spokesman.

RURAL RAPID DELIVERY.

II the United States postoffice depart
ment adopts an apparatus designed to
supplement the work of the rural free
delivery service, farmers will get their
mail not at the gate post at distance
and in some cases mile or more from
the house, but at their very door. The
new contrivance provides both for re-
ceiving mail direct at the farm house
and for sending letters therefrom, giving
to rural homes distant from the highway
a service almost as complete both for
ingoing and outgoing mail as that en-
ioyed by city people in modern Offices
and homes.
AS it stands now, the rural free de.
livery service, although Of inestimable
value to the country people, frequently
involves long trip to and from the mail
box, which, in planting time or in the
urgent season of large harvests, adds to
the exactions of farm life. This mech
anism, intended to give the farmer
quicker mail facilities than ever, consists
of an endless cable which may be
mounted on the posts of any fence lead
ing from the roadway to the house. At
tached to the cable are two cars, larger
but not unlike those used to carry cash
in the overhead change system in de-
partment stores.
When the carrier deposits the mail in
one Of these little cars he closes it, and
by simply turning a crank, starts it
whirling toward the farmers house, the
other car by the same impulse returning
to take its place at the gate. 1t will not
be necessary for the farmer to wait until
the government introduces these devices
for they can be installed by individuals.

British consumers and medical au-

the use of adulterants and so scarce

farthing of duty is collected on the
wool which comes from abroad.
England is in truth the originator
of the shoddy which so arouses the
apprehension OF our free trade friends.
Shoddy was made and used to an enor-
nous extent i'm England long before
1t was ever thought of here, and when
our own people were yet wearing hon
est homespun clothing made from the
actual wool of the domestic sheep, and
of purely home manufacture in every

the result of the development that
has steadily gone on from the time OF
homespun garments, and represent
the inventive genius. taste and skill
OF progressive people, finding en-.
enlargement under the protective pol.
icy. We are making the finest, best
and purest wooden cloths that can be
produced anywhere, and do not have
to employ the shoddy and other adul
terants of free trade England to hold

MEXICO DOESN'T SUIT HIM.


1t will be noticed that Mr.. Bryan
finds fault with the desire attributed
to President Diaz and Finance Min
ister Limantour to change their
financial system to the gold basis.
According to our Nebraska friend.
Mexico will make n serious mistake
If she comes over to- the gold side.
Nobody is injured by the fall i'm the
price of silver i'm Mexico except the
importers, he says, and of course
they have no rights which Mr.. Bry-
an or anybody else is bound to re-
spect, says the st. Louis Globe Dem
ocrat.
If Mr.. Bryan takes glance over
the list of countries which are now
on the gold basis. he will find that
they are very much more numerous
than they were in 1896. All the ma
tons of any consequence anywhere IN
the world which cling to the dscred-
tied white metal to-day are Mexico
and China, and China stands chance
to abandon it in year or two. Cas-
tro's country is getting good deal
of abuse on account OF it's backwa rd.
ness and primltiveness these days,
but il was wise enough to drop sill
yer several years ago and is now on
the gold basis. So are Brazil, Chill.
Peru and all the rest Of the coun.
tries to the south of us, except Ecua
dor and two or three Of the petty
republics of Central America.
