than they are now, and all farmers
are smiling.
The local postofice is also busy
place. Postmaster Lyle reports the
income this year s22.700, which isn't
bad for a town Of 5000. The Mills
Seed company is responsible for the
large increase. The money order
business was astonishing. From July
i. 1909. to July 1. 1910, there We're
10000 money order transactions. most
Of them were paid here. During the
first few months OF the year the force
-at-the postpf1ce handled 10000 cata-
logs for seed company and an equal
number of packages of seeds. The
postof1ice building is entirely made
auate. and the new federal building
will be very much appreciated.
