Department Adopts New Plan

Meets With Favor

Within the past few months the
Street and Sewe- Department. wher-
ever It has been improving streets, has
been making improvements to the
crossings. intersections OF streets are
now being made fiat with the curb.
the water being intercepted at the cor
ners by inlets AS a result. the obiec-
tionable bumps are being gradually
done away with. These improvements
are being made mostly in streets IN
which there are car lines and event
ually the work will extend TO other
streets.
Street Commissioner Pierson said
to-day that the old idea of street paw
ing was deep cutters and inlets at
street inte sections TO take of the
water. or late Il had been found that
these are not necessary and now fiat
crossings will hereafter be the rule
here. With fiat street crossings not
only are the bumps eliminated but the
water does not run across the street,
but is inte -cepted by inlets.

RUBBISH CANS IN
NEED OF SOME PAINT

Many complaints are being made
Of the unsightly waste paper cans
which the Street and Sewer Depa T.
ment placed on street corners I'm busy
thoroughfares sometime ago. At the
time the cans were purchased It was
considered a good move and one thai
would result In aiding to keep the
streets clean. Not much attention has
been paid TO the cans. however. since
they were dist-ibuted about the city
and now some of them are I'm a deplor-
able condition. Huge dents appear in
them and most Of the paint Is gone.
A Westerner visiting the city this
week was favorably impressed with
what he saw but he spoke of the un-
slightly cans on the street corners. II
have seen such receptacles In other
cities he said but no dents appear
in them and they are painted when
paint is needed"

XMAS TREE PRICES HIGH.
Dealers Complain of Scarcity and Ad-
dItiOnaI Cutting Charges.

Christmas trees are likely TO be
higher IN price this year than last.
according to the dealers. This is due
partly to the fact that there IS a
scarcity, and partly to the additional
price charged for their cutting in Yer
mont. where large numbers Of spruce
and fir trees are obtained for the holi-
day trade.
In order TO conserve the forests OF
the Green Mountain State, the dealers
say the Legislature is now consider
ing a bill which places a tax Of 25
cents upon every tree shipped out OF
the State, I'm addition TO the usual
stumpage paid to the owners Of the
greentree forests.

ter General DR.. G. p. Granfield is en-
acted by Congress. The recommenda-
tion is made in the annual report Of
that official, who also makes a strong
plea that the annual vacation Of letter
carriers be increased from two weeks
to one month.
The report deals extensively with
the financial operations of the depart
ment and begins with the declaration
that in the matter of receipts the de-
partment is next to the treasury. Ac-
cording to figures submitted for the
fiscal year ended June 80. 1909, the
gross revenue OF the postal service
reached the enormous total of $685.
562 1888, an increase of S12,0S3,72 or
6.31 per cent. over the preceding
year.
For Private Mail Boxes.
The yearly loss of carriers time in
large cities where residents have no
private mail receptacles is great, ac-
cording to the report which says:
by the most conservative estimate
the average loss is fifteen seconds al
each place of delivery; If there are
