ing their money abroad for what
they used to give him the opportun-
ity OF filling their orders and has Of
fcred to do so at prices as low or
lower. for tho same quality OF goods
as that offered by the catalogue
houses.
Our members of Congress have
been aware of such conditions and
every one of them is bitterly opposed
to any change in our postal laws,
which would give the catalogue house
Il stronger hold on the trade Of the
country. These congressman arc not
narrow minded men. but have been
drilled in the relentless mill of years
OF cxpcricsSc. One OF the Iowa con-
grcssircn 'fns made the remark that
he is opposed to the cncroachmcnt OF
the catalogue house on the home mcr-
chant for the good reason that in the
sending of money to an unseen and
unknown merchant, gives that rner-
chant aa opportunity to practice I'M
scrupulous tactics upon the unsus-
pecting customer.

As VIC have said in the beginning
OF this article il is the objcc; OF the
promoters OF the catalogue house to
drive the home merchant on, OF buSi-
ness and IL they succeed in doing so.
i; means the running of Our beautiful
and home like towns. When you
have depleted the home town you
have done much toward dcprcciating
the valuc OF the farm lands. So this
is question that not only is OF vital
interest to the retail merchant, but il
is OF just as much interest to tho
citizens OF our towns and to
farmers. II would certainly be dc.
piorabic condition il VIC were obligcd
TO send away for the most OF what VIC
need because our home merchants
have been driven out of business by
the catalogue houses.
These concerns must pay for their
goods jus, tho same as the merchants
at homo, and someone must pay the
millions OF dollars they spend every
month for rent OF the buildings they
occupy. besides the additional cS-
pcrSc of an army of clerks. The
homo merchant is not called upon to
meet any OF these expenses.

Square Numbers.

Every boy knows that square nrrn-
Der Is a number produced by the multi
plication of any number by itself Thus
7 multiplied by itself gives 40 as a
result; 40 consequently Is a square
number, 7 being termed the square root
from which it springs. In high mna-
bers the extraction of the square root
is an affair of time and trouble and
after all the necessary calculations
have been made 1t may perhaps he
found that the number is not n square
number. This unnecessary trouble
may be saved If the following instrnc-
tions are remembered: Every square
number ends with one of the figures l,
4, 8, g or ., or with two ciphers pre-
ceded by one or other of these figures
Again, every square number Is equally
divisible by q, or when divided by
will have a remainder of 1. Thus. as
shown above, the square of Is 40
which divided by gives us a quotient
IL and / over; "a again is a square
number. and 1t is exactly divisible by L.

Green Manure for Wheat.

For an economical and cheap fer.
tilizer for wheat there is nothing, in
my opinion, equal to crop of cow
peas plowed under in the green state
late in the fall just before the heavy
frosts come to injure the foliage. The
cowpea as fertilizer gives almost as
good results on crop of wheat as
stable manure, but the effects are not
so lasting in the soil for future crops.
A piece of land where cowpeas have
been turned over in the fall, topped
with a good dressing in the winter
makes an ideal piece of land on which
to grow good crop of fine potatoes.
