CARRYING NEWSPAPERS.
Old Ways and New Contrasted by an
 Old-Time Route Boy.

From the Boston Herald
 ''Who would have Thought 50 years ago. said a man who dates back to a still more ancient period. that the manu- facture of handcarts could in any meas ure ever depend on the selling and delivering of newspapers?
 Every grocer has a handcart. as do many butchers and fruit dealers and men in other trades-smal dealers, maybe, or dealers who use handcarts. as well as horses and wagons; but who would ever have thought of a newsletter using handcart in his business? And yet there are lots of newsdealers who nowa- days include handcart as regular part of their business equipment.
 ''I carried papers when I was a boy-a route of daily newspaper delivering papers to regular customers or subscrib- CTS; and my papers l carried in a bag made of ticking, with a broad strap run ming over the shoulder. That was the common way in those days and then when the papers to be delivered on ny route had so increased in number that the bag got to be pretty bulky and heavy, I got another bag and divided them, carrying these two bags, one to each

side, with a strap over the opposite

side, with a strap over the opposite shoulder.
 And that seemed to me then about the limit of possibilities in the way of the personal delivery of newspapers But that only shows how blind and limited and narrow in our ways of doing things we were in those days. We do everything on a broader scale nowadays.
 Now it is the commonest thing In the world to meet in the streets boys, or as likely as not men, delivering papers, the Sunday papers from a handcart; for the would now make a bundle of such size and weight that no carrier could carry it. So now in the residence districts early of "a Sunday morning you might meet in almost any block a newspaper carrier with a handcart delivering papers, and this to be sure has been so for some little time; but 1t still makes me smile every time I meet one; 1 have pro- fesslonal interest,
 II used to carry papers in a ticking bag slung over my shoulder and when came to a house where l left a paper I would pull 1t out of the bag and sling 1t into the doorway and keep steadily son. never stopping. The news carrier that I meet on Sunday mornings now comes with a handcart which he halts on the sidewalk, say in front of some apartment house, and then he gets out of the cart for this one house a bunch

interest in scientific agriculture. Not only the staple crops, but potatoes, beets, on- ions and other vegetables were raised very successfully in the San Antonio dis trict in the period from January to May which was the driest this country has ex- perienced in 20 years. As 1t has been demonstrated that crops can be raised ons as low as eight inches of rainfall in the arid west and as this country never gets less than from IS to 20 inches, it is dem onstrated that by proper cultural methods there need be no failures.
 As result of these experiments San Antonio will make an effort to secure the International Dry Farming congress for the year 1910 The general government Is arranging to send out lecturers with stereopticon views to educate the farmer and the state is suplementing this work with bulletins and pamphlets. It is be- lieved that this campaign of education will double the crops in the San Antonio country.

Good HoYsss Scarce,

San Antonio, Tex, Juno 12.--(Special J. When bids are opened in the Chief Quar- termaster's department at Fort Sam Hous- ton on June 15 for cavalry and artillery horses. the department will again face the difficulty of getting animals that come up to the specifications Since the Boer war took the bulk of the horse stock out of Texas the breeders have never been able to meet the demands. South west Texas has number of big horse ranches, but other states have made such heavy drafts on their output that the price of horses has steadily advanced un- til now they are from three to five times higehr than they were in 1900. As the arm demands an exceptional horse with specifications so rigid, the officers are again pointing out the necessity for the government breeding farm and have ad- vocated Texas as the proper location. So far the war department has taken no definite steps to embark in such an en- terprise but 1t is thought that in time they will have to come to 1t.

DO you BELIEVE TH1sp

story to the Eject That the stan-i

The Standard Oil Company has de-
cided to drive the COW and the dairy
man out of business, says the New
York Press. Its skilled chemists have
discovered process whereby they
can make gilt-edge butter as by
product of crude petroleum. II re-
ports are true, plans have been pre-
pared and contracts soon will be let
for putting up q big buttermaking
plant as a new departure Of the Stand
ard OIL works in the Constable Hook
section of Bayonne.
It was thought the limit had been
reached In the by-product business
when delicate perfumes were extract
ed from kerosene. Until recently no
one had an idea the Standard OIL had
designs against the butter and the
oleomargarine industries. It is pre-
dicted confidently that within year
the only butter on sale In the Ameri-
can market will bear the Standard
OIL label, and that petroleum butter
also will be an active and aggressive
competitor with creamery butter for
supremacy in the foreign markets.
Since the new process was dlscoy-
cred every precaution possible has
been taken by the Standard OIL on
