: Facts about Parcels Post Bill.

Although the provisions of the par
cells post bill recently introduced in
congress by Representative Foster
have oeen diligently pointed out, still
there are usually we'll informed people
who seem to misunderstood it. AS
ably edited paper as the Ludlow
Tribune comments unfavorably on the
measure under an evident mistaken
idea OF the scope of the plan. The
Tribune finds the Ludlow merchants
almost unit on the, opirion that the
passage of Fosters bill would be in
imical to their interests in that it
would bring them into sharper compe-
tition with the larger concerns. The
fact that the larger concerns carry so
much greater variety Of wares-or at
least have that greater variety within
easy reach gives them an advantage
over the rural dealer which the parcels
post would tend to increase. A repre-.

Do you eat enough of this

The great benefit in health and strength
that always is enjoyed by regular eaters
of good oatmeal is known the world
over. Every year there are more and
more eaters Of Quaker Oats, which is
recognized in this country and in Europe
as the one perfect oatmeal.
All the experiments of the govern
ment food experts and the athletic
trainers of Yale University prove that
cereal eaters are the, strongest and
healthiest, and Quaker Oats stands at
the head of the list of cereal foods. It is
not only the best food, but it's the cheap
est food on earth. Eat it daily TO,

The Reason Why.

Now we know why the rural deliv-
cry service does not receive more con-
sideration at the hands of Congress.
1t is because rural delivery is re-
sponsible for the big deficit now con-
fronting the treasury. However start
ling this statement may appear. it
must not be doubted for moment.
Honorable Seveno E. Payne, chair
man of the ways and means committee
in the house of representatives, says
this is the cause and he surely knows.
We are not advised as to the source of
his information, and careful research
fails to find figures to substantiate his
statement.
Taking the appropriations for the
year 1905 as a basis, comparison will
be found interesting and enlightening.
For the war department appropria-
lions for 1905 were Sill, 900. 000; for
1909 $185, 900, 900, an increase of $74,-
900. 900. For the navy department, 1905,
SOB, 900. 900, 1909, $3.50. 100000; an in
crease of S27, 100000. For pensions,
1905. $142. 600, 900. 1909, s173, 600, 900 F.;
an increase of $31, 100000. Total in
crease for the three departments
named for 1909 as compared with 1905,
$132. 900, 900.
Rural delivery, 1905. 500, 900, 900,
1909, $35. 900, 900; increase of SIS, 900,
900.
For the war department alone the
total increase for the years 1906-7-e
and 9 over 1905 was $149. 900, 900, while
the total increase for rural delivery
during the same period was $42, 900, 900.
Again the total amount appropriated
for rural delivery for the four years
named was $122, 100000 against an in.
crease in appropriations for the wal
department of S149, 900. 900.
The increase in the appropriations
for pensions for 1909 as compared with
1905 is almost sufficient to pay the full
cost of rural delivery.
The above figures refer to only
three departments, but comparison:

The Heart Can't Stand
Rheumatic Acid
Poisoning.
The Uric-o Treatment Expels the Poison
from the BLOOD.


Those sharp. shooting pains through
the chest around the region of the
heart mean that poisonous uric and
rheumatic acid are here ready to
spring and grip tightly the muscles
controlling the hearts action. Don't
neglect these warnings. You must
neutralize and drive these dangerous
poisons from the system, or sooner or
later they will overcome you.
The only way to cure rheumatism
is to get at it from the inside with
Uric-O. 1t acts with marvellous swift
ness upon the muscles, kidneys and
blood. Cleans out the sand-like depos-
its in the muscles, forces the kidneys
to perform those duties for which
they were designed and neutralizes the
acid within the blood.
Uric-O is a liquid taken internally,
three times daily, and does not contain
any morphine, opium or other So called
''pain deadeners." Sclatica, Mus
cular, Inf1ammatory and Articular
Rheumatism all yield readily to Uric-O.

After studying wrecks for several
years, the members of the Vermont
public service commission got a little
first-hand information when the engine
st. Lawrence of their train p}oughed
into landslide on the Central Yer
mont track at Roxbury and was
wrecked. Therefore, they will be their
own witnesses when the accident is
officially considered, if it be considered.
Chairman Redmond of the commission
seems to have made immediate report
for he commends the engineer most
highly for his quickness of action in
slowing down his train, signaling the
fiagman etc. In fact. it was what
might be considered a model wreck,
framed up for the act and carried out
like the final dress rehearsal. 1t is to
be noted, too, that the scene was again
laid at Roxbury, the great wreck CEN

The most practical bit of forestry
work just now is to plant your pines
an that very bushy, stony pasture lot.
Most farmers have to formally give UP
the pasture. although they realize
that they will never go to the labor
and expense of restoring land of that
kind. So it grows up to a mixture CT
bushes, savins, and birch, a scattering
stand that occupies the soil and keeps
out grass, but gives a product of lit

for which a bond issue was authorized
by Congress, but up to the present
time more than SO per cent of the
money expended has been taken from
the treasury.
In view of all these things it is diff
cult to figure out how rural delivery is
responsible for the treasury deficit, but
Chairman Payne says it is and no one
will have the temerity to dispute his
statement. Mr.. Payne's attitude indi-
Gates his belief that rural delivery
should be abolished. He evidently
loves the rural carrier and the farmer.
His affection is further manifested by
one or two items in the fearful and
wonderful tariff bill framed by him.
For instance, he proposes duty of
two cents per pound on coffee but re-
fuses to increase the tax on beer. The
| fact that coffee is necessity in every
household in the land, while 80 per
cent of the rural districts have either
prohibition or local option. cuts no ice

sentative of one line of trade holds
that it would be poor business policy
for the government to go into the car
rying business at fiat rate, with no
regard for the distance which the
package is carried" The Ludlow
merchants should understand that the
bill only contemplates carrying pack
ages on rural delivery routes at low
rate of postage, from the post Office
from which the routes originate. AS
for instance. the Ludlow people could
send packages weighing 10 pounds or
less by rural delivery mail on any route
which starts from Ludlow at a mini
mum cost. This would certainly bessa
great accommodation at times to both
the Ludlow merchants and their coun-
try patrons, and would probably insure
them additional trade. This isl all
there is to the Foster bill simply a
great convenience at nominal rate
for residents living along rural deliv-
cry routes and people living in towns
from which such routes originate. If
the Foster measure becomes law. it
will in no wise change the present
postal system, other than as explained
above. If Rutland merchant or a
