THE local publishers OF the country
and the printers are the only trades
people in the United States with whom
the government enters into an active
competition in the pursuit of business.
The government maintains elaborate
and extensive printing plants to do such
printing as is required in the govern
ment departments and to supply the
necessary printed matter for the gov
eminent, and, in addition to that, it
enters into an active competition with
the printers by offering to supply to
citizens envelopes at prices far below
any that local printers can hope to
make. To carry on this business the
postal department mails out millions of
letters to practically every postal pat
ron in the United States, and while
these letters are carried through the
mails, the same as any other letter,
the department pays no postage upon
them. These letters are bids for the
envelope business of the people pat
termed after the mail order advertising
of the city mail order house. Having
secured large numbers of orders for
printed envelopes by this method, the
postal department then sends to its
patrons the envelopes SO ordered by
United States mail, and pays no post
age upon them. While this method of
doing business contributes largely to
the deficit in the postal department, to
overcome that deficit, the department
recommends that an additional postage
be added to rural publications. In other
words, the printers and publishers are
to be called upon to make up the de-
felt in the postal department which is
caused largely by the government en-
tering into competition with them.

IT is stated that thousands of farm
ers will attend the Third Annual &C.
ment Show, to be held in the Coliseum,
Chicago, February 1926, 1910. This
influx of the farming community to a
show hereto attended mostly by manu-
facturers and contractors, is quite in
keeping with the keen interest the
farmer has shown in the cement and
allied trade exhibits at the different
state fairs this fall. The desire for
knowledge will surely be satisfied, as it
is reported that more than three hun
dred concerns will be present with dis
plays, illustrating the most recent de-
velopments of the industry. Inasmuch
as the farmer is using more cement
than perhaps any other men today, we
are of the opinion that the estimated
attendance will be greatly exceeded.
Reduced rates to Chicago have been
obtained from most of the railroad
companies.

to get information on the subject and
the ideas of the people respecting the

WOLVES CHASE MEN IN SLED.

One of the most thrilling encounters
ever experienced with wolves in the
vicinity of Onamia, Mimi, took place
the other night shortly after dark. G.
A Frank and William Dawes had been
out butchering COW, half mile from
town, and were on their way home
with the fresh-killed beef on the sled,
when they were startled to hear the
bowls of several wolves some distance
away Other wolves took up the cry
and in a few moments pack of fully
fifty wolves were in close pursuit.
Frank put his horses to the run, but
the wolves were fieeter, and when just
a few rods from the city limits, seven
or eight of the bloodthirsty animals
Ieaped upon the sled. Dawes, VINO
stood behind, killed three of them VITA
a long butcher knife which he had
used in the dressing Of the COW. The
knife was wrenched out of his hand,
and he killed a fourth by throwing it
off the sled so that it fell beneath the
runners. BY this time they were with
in the village limits and the wolves
gave up the chase The men imme-
diately reported their adventure, and
a large posse of citizens, armed with
rifles and shotguns, went back to see If
more of the animals could be killed.
They found the pack engaged in de-

with friend journeyed to the vicinity
of the storage tanks of the village
water system on the high rocky hill a
mile south of the village and prepared
to cook dinner over a campfire He
was in the act of frying beefsteak,
when he CHANGED to glance over his
shoulder and was Mortified to discov-
er huge snake of the adder species
with head poised to strike. The SER
pent was fully four feet in length, and
had approached to within four feet of
the picnic party. Mr.. Stocking call-
tiously secured a club, but the snake
understood the game, and darted away
among the rocks and the dinner prep
arations proceeded for time. The
odor of the frying beefsteak had stir
red up a swarm of snakes and soon
the picniekers were surrounded by a
Gordon numbering at least a half dozen
of ugly looking reptiles, all of great
length and in thorough fighting mood.
Mr. Stocking did not hesitate this
time, but opened the ball with his club
and soon two of the adders were laid
low, that is, fattened, while the rest
sought safety in the rocks. The two
dead snakes measured about four feet
each in length and were of abnormal
size
