economical management of the former. From each oi these sources muni6cent rev enues accrue to reward tim. energy and capital expe Id d. The number who engage in the production of cereals is not in a corresponding ratio with those who keep alive the mining and the cattle bu>i- ness. To mine along m Ddern methods necessitates the em- ployment and expe ndi'ure of large sums of money, without any assu ance that the vent ure will yield satisfactory re- turns; but the chances are abnu' equal with other con- mercial pursuits until after the experimental" stag shall have been passed, when fabu- lous wealth comes to one as if by its own volition. St. ck- raising is somewhat more hazardous, much depending on the generosity of the ele-
 ments that the herds may not
 be deprived of sustenance and s ared the encrOachment of
 pred ltory "hustlers." The farmer? We could not e1isl
 without him. The miner, the
 herdsman. and the husband
 man, are inalienably linked
 together; that which contrib.

 of the other; each and all

 made to prosper at the ex.
 pense of the other
 The PRosPEcTOR notices, oc- casipnally, a disposition on the part Of the farming ele.

Christian E.ndeuvor Notes.

Because business matters occu-
pied so much time last Sunday even
ing (Feb. A. that the discussion OF
the interesting topic for that night,
New Work we may do for Christ
and the Church," was somewhat
limited and it was decided to con
tinue the discussion on next Sun.
day evening (Feb. 11), instead OF
taking the regular topic. The lead
er is Miss Margaret Hutton, and
the Scripture references-Luke IL;
48. Gen. IL; 1-3. Gal. g.: 9.
The sleighride social given at the
home Of Mr.. Fred Bliss last Friday
evening proved to be one of the
merriest and most largely attended
of any for some time. There were
four large loads, and the rides to
and from the country were enjoyed
to their fullest extent by every one
as was also the social time when all
were together.

Improvement League Social.
February Is.

The members Of the Improve.
ment League had a meeting and
picnic supper at the home of the
president. Mrs. H. j. Forsythe
on last Friday afternoon. The
meeting had been called by Mrs.
Forsythe to discuss plans for in
entertainment to provide money
for the carrying on of the work
of the League during the sum
mer. During the five years of
its existence, the League has
raised and disbursed about one
thousand dollars and we trust
that the work as a whole has com
mended itself to the general
public for whom the improve
ments have been made. A
special feature of the work has
been the reclaiming of some of
the waste places about town,
noticeably the work done in the
square on Main ST., the depot
plot and the transforming of the
lots around the electric light
station that will be completed
during the coming summer. To
the thoughtful person it is evident
at once that the first expense is
not all-theSe places are to be
moved and kept in order, and all
this means additional expense
AS the League has not given an
entertainment for some time, we
feel justified in urging a large at
tendance at the social to be given
at G.. A. r. hall on Tuesday eve
ming, Feb. 18th, (Which an ad-
mission of 10c will be charged.
Each lady is requested to bring
a box containing lunch for two
and having her name written on
box-sne is also asked to provide
two valentines exactly alike, one
to be retained and the other to be
put into bag to be sold during
the evening for 25c. This feature
is similar to the necktie social
that always proves popular. The
person who buys a valentine
finds its "double" and proceeds
to share the contents of the lady S
box. It has also been suggest
ed that it would add a great deal
to the enjoyment of the evening
if a large mum Der would take the
time and trou ole to dress in cos
tunes different from the every
day garb. While the social side
is to be a main feature of the eve
ming, the League ladies are pro
viding an old fashioned Last
Afternoon at School. = Come
out everybody pay your money
and laugh and grow young. Pro
gram to commence at $50.

Delivery of Parcels on Rural
Routes.

Delivery of Parcels on Rural
A writer in an exchange says the
regulations governing rural free de-
livery should be SO changed as 10
allow each postofice which is a
center of such delivery to sell par
eel stamps at a uniform rate per
pound for each patron, without re-
gard to distance, throughout the
entire extent of such service, every
such postofice to have separate
stamps ofconvenient denominations
printed separately for itself, with
its name and number distinct on
each, as is done on national bank
notes, good only on its own partic-
ular route, and stamped parcel
wrappers might also be given a
trial.
Such service would be as benid-
cial to the public as general par
cells postal service would be detri-
mental. 1t would enable the farm
err to send to town the previous eve
ming, or to telephone the same
morning and receive something he
needs, without losing time from his
work to make the trip himself. 1t
would increase the receipts from
rural free delivery, and might pos
sibly in time make the service self
supporting. A general postal seTy-
ice, on the other hand, would tend
to further increase the trade of larg-
er cities and correspondingly injure
the Hufress Jf horre towns.

TUESDAY CLUB.
Valentines at Freeman's.
PROGRAM, FEBRU AIRY 10.
Leading Novelists

The Board of Education of Saint
Paul proposed last year to abolish
some of the outlying High schools,
including the Humboldt-Prof. H.
S. Baker, Supt. The patrons of
this school strenously opposed its
effacement and wished for an OPP
portunity to prove to the Board that
the school was accomplishing better
work for its $50 students than the
Central High was for its 1,400, and
. week ago Friday evening came a
trial OF preparedness. In a joint
debate between the schools the
Ef1mrdfr won with ease.

Hon. ]. Q. Emery, State Dairy and
Food Commissioner, at Opera Hall
Tuesday evening where he talked
for an hour and half on the adul-
teration of foods. The subject is
one that intimately affects the peo-
pie everywhere at all times. Mr..
Emery is equipped with abundant
facts for his lecture and he present
ed them in an intensely interesting
manner. The lecture was one from
which much instruction was ac-
quired. While commercial foods
are SO generally adulterated it is
gratifying to know that legislation
is reaching out to ascertain the
facts and to formulate means to
suppress these frauds. The people
are under obligations to the Tues
day Club for securing Mr.. Emery
in his instructive lecture. While
the state bears the expenses of the
Dairy and Food Commissioner the
communities desiring his lectures
are expected to advertise the lee
ture and furnish a suitable hall.
The Tuesday Club solicited the lee
ture and paid these local expenses,
enterprise and generosity which we
all appreciate.
Attention, ladies, gents, every
body! Come out to the poverty So
cial at G. A. R. Hall Friday even
