Parcels Post and Post Check Currency.

During the last comparatively few
wears the home of the Western farm
er has been made much more invit-
ing and comfortable and his life
much easier by the telephone and the
rural mail delivery, and every year
increasing numbers of them have the
advantages of interurban lines. Two
things more are necessary to make
farmers completely happy: One is
the parcels post and the other post
check currency, and these two natu-
rally go together.
What do we mean by parcels post!
Why, of course, a POST for parcels
or small packages; packages or par
GELS by mail, the same as letters or
papers. We are really the only great
nation in the world that don't have
a parcels post. In the British
Islands you can send a couple OF
chickens. or a new bonnet, or a few
pounds or almost anything you have
a mind to anywhere in the kingdom
for about twelve and and a halt
cents. By parcels post you can
send a package of this kind from
Germany to this country, but you

Collect all the cocoons and chrysalises
that you can find. Put in breeding
cases as illustrated in your agricul-
tural textbook. When the insects
emerge, kill them, and make your
collection as indicated under Compe-
tition No. 5. Keep specimens of the
cocoon and chrysalis along with the
butterfly and moth which comes from
it.
Competition No. 9.-The best corn
plant. Prize, one subscription to
The Progressive Farmer. To help
you decide what is the best corn
plant, write to the North Carolina
Experiment Station, Raleigh, N. c.,
for their bulletin ON selecting corn.
Also to the Department of Agricul-
ture, Washington, d. O., to the Ten
nessee Experiment Station, Knox
vile, Tenn, the Illinois Experiment
Station, Urbana, Ill. Keep your corr
plant whole so that you can prove
that all of the ears were on one
stalk.

ton Three Nature Study" a delight

how to Judge a cotton plant, write
to the Department of Agriculture,
Washington, d. c., and ask for their
reprint from the Year Book upon the
Improvement of Cotton by Seed Sc

In many cases second prizes as
well as first will be offered. All of
these prizes will be delightful to have
in your school, and the cshool will
be proud in the possession of any of
them. In every case, excepting Com
petitions Nos. 6 and 7, the whole
school may enter for the prize. The
prize will then belong to the school
to which it is awarded, not to any in
dividual. In Competitions Nos. 6
and Z, the prize cannot be given to
the school, but the whole school may
aid the individual who is working
for it, and the honor of winning the
prize, and having a representative
in college, will belong to the school.

Weak and unhealthy kidneys are responsible
for many kinds of diseases. aud if permitted to
continue much suffering and fatal results are sure
to toNow. Kidney trouble ~irritates the nerves,
makes you dizzy, restless, sleepless and irritable;
makes you : ass water often during the day and
obliges you to get up many times during the
night. Unhealthy kidneys cause rheumatism,
gravel, catarrh of the bladder, pain or dull ache
In the back, joints and muscles; make your
head ache and back ache, cause indigestion,
stomach and liver trouble, you get a sallow,
yellow complexion, make you feel as though
you had heart trouble; you may have plenty
of ambition, but no strength; get weak and
waste away.
The cure for these troubles is DR. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the world-famous new kidney
remedy In taking ~Swamp-Root you afford nat
ura1 help to Nature, for Swamp-Root is the
most perfect healer and gentle aid to the kid
neys that Is known to medical science.

A1oAA Europe hours were spent at the
hrst stopping place On the St. Law
renee to send by railroad tons of
parcels sem by mail in big baskets,
similar to those that laundrymen use
for shipping laundry, so that they
could reach their destination quick
er than if they remained on the
steamer.
Why do we not have a parcels
post? Mainly because we have three
or four great express companies,
who have their representatives in
Congress and in the Senate and who
are determined we shall not have it,
no matter what the convenience
would be to the farmer. The mer-
chants in villages and in the smaller
cities also object, because they don't
want the farmer to buy goods away
from home. We noticed, however,
that merchants live in other coun-
tries that have parcels post, and
they would soon accommodate them
selves to the situation, once the far
mers secure it. They will secure it
when they realize what a convent
enc it would be.
Parcels post, however, wouldn't be
complete without a post check cur
rency. We have explained preyi-
ously what a post check currency is
simply a bank note which by a
stroke of the pen is transformed in
to draft on the Government, which
is taken up and cancelled and a new
one assured to take it's place. Say,
for example, that the wife wants
something from town. 1t may be a
piece of dress goods; it may be a new
hat or bonnet. She has perhaps re-
ceived a catalogue and knows what
she wants and knows the price. She
simply goes into the sacred drawer
of the desk and takes out a post
check, which has been doing good
service as currency heretofore, has
her husband write a few lines on it,
puts it in a letter, puts the letter in
the mail-box, and the next day or
the day after the package comes.
She did not need to go to town, Meth
er did her good man need to go,
but she got what she wanted with
the minimum of expense and the
maximum of comfort.
When will the farmers get this ?
When they know what a good thing
it is and see that their representa-
tives don't stand in the way of it.
or know Their eason why. There will,
of course, be difficulties to overcome.
Some interests will be injured, as they
are in every great improvement. We
never hived a swarm of bees yet in
which there we're not some killed.
We have never seen any great good
come to the whole people that some
minor interests did not suffer. The
point to be aimed at is the greatest
good to the greatest number, which
in the end is the greatest good of all
the people.
There is a better day coming for
farming than has ever been before.
The farmer will not be regarded
with pity and compassion as a son
of unending toll, leading an isolated
life, with quaint, old-fashioned or
uncouth ways, but a man of bust
ness. living with the maximum of
