Postmaster General Cortelyou has
submitted to the Secretary of the
Treasury for transmission to Congress
estimates for the postoffice department
and the postal service for the coming
fiscal year The amount asked for sal
aries in the postofiice department in
Washington is 1,52S. 800, being a net
increase of S121. $50 over the appropria-
ton for the current year, while the
amount asked for the maintenance of
the postal service is S206,662, 100, a net
increase over the present appropriation
of S15,O00,O0O.
The estimates last year were about
S12000,000 in excess of the appropria-
ton for the year before, so that the in
crease this year is about 100000
more than the increase last year. The
apparently large increase in expendi-

mates, according to the department,
represents but normal advance over
the expenditures of last year, made
necessary to meet the constantly grow

demand for improved facilities.

Eradication" a most practical and
helpful little bulletin lately issued by
the Minnesota experiment station, in
making suggestions for the eradication
of small patches of quack grass recon-
mendS the tar paper method as one OF
the most effective. In the instance
cited in the bulletin tar paper was
spread over a patch of quack grass
about a rod square. 1t was Tapped
enough to make complete covering,
and a few shovels full of dirt were
thrown on the edges to keep them in
place. Two days later The plants were
all dead above ground, and a month
later the roots were apparently COM
pletely dead. While this is commend
ed as excellent for patches of small
size, the cost of the tar paper would
make it impractical for larger areas.

Copper Stocks.

Have you bought any copper
stocks as yet? If not, now is the
4bime to buy. There is no better in
vestment any place or anywhere
than in copper stocks at the present
time. as we are now in the electrical
age. causing great demand for
copper. The price of copper now is
Is cents a pound and will remain
between fifteen cents and twenty
cents for years to come. Money in
vested in copper stocks will bring in
larger returns than any other In
>vestment and if you buy the stocks
I have advised to buy Adventure,
Mass and Victoria, you are sure to
make two or three hundred per cent
on the amount invested. If you can
not buy hundred shares buy fifty
or even five.
If you wish to make money quick
ly and only invest a small amount,
buy a thousand bushels Of wheat in
the May option at 81 cents bushel,
putting up two cents bushel or
twenty dollars for margin. Two
cents advance would double your
money. Every day wheat is adj
vanclng and declining but not
enough SO you could lose if you
keep your margin good.
Invest twenty or hundred dol
lars and see how easily money is
made in this way. Very few lose
in wheat.
