CONSIGNMENT OF
MAIL A BIG ONE
Woodmen Office Will Send Out
1863, 900 Pieces in One
Lot Next Week.
FIRST UNDER THE NEW LAW
Vertical System of Filing to Take
Place of One Used in the
Past.

During the next week the Modern
Woodmen head Office in this city will
send out about 10000 pieces of mail
through the Rock Island postoffice. This
vast amount of matter includes official
instructions for the elections of camp
officers, which take place in Deem
Der: instructions in regard TO the
auditing of accounts OF camp officers;
and information in regard to the spe-
cial dispensation of the head counsel
by which members who have been sus-
pended for over co days. and under 6
months, may be re-instated at spe-
cial low rate. The complete instruc-
tons to the new clerks of camps as
TO their duties, are included in the
mail which is to be sent out next
week
Forwarded Under Frank.
This mail is TO be forwarded under
what is termed frank, which per-
mitS the sender 10 forward large quaint
ties of mail by merely paying in cash
the amount of the postage, and print
ing the number of the frank, and the
statement that the mail is sent under
4 frank, in the corner. This is the
first permit of this class issued by the
local department under the new pro-
vision.
This amount of mail, representing
one weeks issue, gives some idea of
the value of the head Offices of the
order to the Rock Island postoffice
The business of the Modern Woodmen
has been sufficient TO increase the
standing of the postOffice. and to in
crease the salary of the postmaster.
New system of Files.
Beginning with the new year, the
head officer will put into use the YER
teal system of correspondence filing
in place of the alphabetical system
now in use. Under the new system
the correspondence of each local camp
will be kept in one file, under a num-
Der, instead of being filed under the
name of the individual camp officer,
as in the past. The new system will
result in greater eXpediency than the
old method of filing
Special instructions are being sent
out TO the local camp. with regard to
the blanket bond of the National Sure
~ company. This bond was executed
on Jan. l. 1904, and covers the local
camp clerks, and bankers. protecting
the funds of the local camps, and the
funds of the head camp in the hands
of local officers. Last year there was
some misunderstanding in regard to
the bond. and number of the local
camps secured additional bonds. This
was unnecessary, and the camps are
being notified. in order that this mis-
take will not be made again at the
beginning of the year.

Sales at Fairs.

Sales at fairs have long been a fea-
ture of the English cattle shows. In
fact, they have become so general that
many of the English shows are really
market days and are held at frequent
intervals. Sales have played a more
or less important part with American
exhibitors, but have always been made
privately, and fair officials have taken
little or no interest in encouraging
them. There would seem to be an OPP
p~ortunity in this country for advance
ment in this direction. If sale classes
are arranged for and a certain part Of
the day set aside for auction sales of
cattle or other produce both the fair
management, exhibitors and general
public might be benefited thereby. 1t
would help the farmer out at the spot
where he is weakest-that is, in mar
keting what he grows.-American
