Rural Free Delivery.

The value Of the rural free delivery
mail service to the farmer can hardly
be estimated. Not many years ago
The farmer was entirely dependent
upon the little country postofice, ge,-
ting his mail two or three times per
week, but owing to the fact that he
generally had to go from mile to
three miles to the postotticc he some
times got his mail only once week.
Now conditions are vastly changed.
Through the efficiency of the rural
mail service the farmers mail is de-
liyered at his very door to his own
private box every day in the week,
and he is brought into closer touch
with the affairs of the world and can
read his daily paper il he wishes and
keep thoroughly posted.
Besides these advantages, the rural
free delivery service enables the
farmer to make purchases by mali
and to obtain through the daily serv-
ice many advantages that he never
possessed before.
Postmaster General Meyer, in
speaking Of the advantages of the
rural mail service recently said:
1.-THE history of the rural delivery
is an interesting one, and it should
be understood by our people for the
reason that there is a feeling pre-
yalent in many parts OF the country
that this service is an extravaganza
and unnecessary drain upon the de-
partment.. However, let US look at
the results accomplished in the last
established in the fall OF 1895. FIT
teen thousand dollars was expended
during that fiscal year, the postal
deficit being S11, 100000. For the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1907, the
expenditures for rural delivery were
$27, 100000 and the estimated postal
deficit showed decrease as compared
with 1887 OF about $4,5000G0, the total
being about 100000.
This is an undoubted evidence to
my mind that, while the expense in
Cured in connection with the ruraI
free delivery is enormous, yet it has
increased the receipts and the bene-
fits to our people cannot be measured
in dollars and cents. The isolation
which existed in many parts of the
country has been overcome; the peo-
pie are in daily communication with
their friends in the rest of the world;
the daily papers and magazines come
to the door of every farmhouse on
the rural routes and enlightenment
and information are being spread
broadcast throughout the land"

OPPONENT EASY TO BEAT.

Edmonia willingly let the cloth slip
back into the bucket, and sat fiat upon
