About 20 farmers, whose farms
are south of town held a meeting
at the office of Ptak's lumber yard
last Saturday for the purpose OF
making arrangements for the ex-
tension of telephone connections
with their dwellings. The exten,
sion would be IS miles long at a
rough guess. This idea is prac-
teal one and the advantage OF
having a phone at home can not
be disputed. The small sum that
it costs to have it is small indeed,
since the benefits exceed it. More
farmers should take hold in this
move.
