OVERHAULING STR. HUM.
East Jordan to Have Practically
New Boat Next Spring.

Hauled out of the side of the harbor
is a sad looking wreck says the Char
levoix Sentinel. 1t is the Steamer
Hum which Silas Swales is tearing 10
pieces. From stem to stern and from
keel to raj it looks like a ruin. But
when Silas gets through with her in
the spring she will be a bran new
bOat--new ribs, new beams, lining
and outside plankng. Nothing will
reu4tfn Of the old boat but her grace
full model and part OF her keel. Her
upper works will be rebuilt where
necessary. The HUNS boiler and en-
CINE are good, and her lines and power
have made her the swiftest boat on
the inland waters.

Will Your Gifts Go Alright?

If you would be sure that your
Christmas packages are safely deliver
ed by the postman, lend your ears to
the requests which postal clerks all
over the country are making and you
may be reasonably sure that the pack
ages you send will arrive On time and
in proper shape.
To begin at the beginning. or In
other words TO begin on the one thing
upon which the postal clerks lay the
most stress-tie your package tightly,
write the address legibly and paste or
write return card on the corner.
The postal authorities advise the in
sertion Of return card inside the
wrappings and declare that it this re-
quest was generally carried out that
hundreds Of packages that now go TO
the dead letter Office would be retur-
ned TO the senders.
Request two: Please mail in time
70 avoid the rush This is not always
posi- ole but the introduction Of the
Don't open until Christmas" stickers
will keep your gift until the proper
time even il you send it week before
the big holiday lead out.
These are two care inal principles
TO which you are asked To adhere in
ages, A third of scarcely less import
ance is: Tie your packages properly.
II you seal them so that the inspect
ors cannot undo the wrapping you will
be expected TO pay first class rates.
Tie them with cord in such a man
ner that they can he undone without
tearing the wrappings. If you wait to
do this you will probably be asked TO
tie the package over again,
Postmaster declares that the handl-
ing OF the heavy Christmas mail in
the past two years has been greatly
facilitated by the publicity which the
newspapers have given the wrong and
right way Of mailing packages. Last
year the number OF packages received
dU Tue utd'l lt' itI blllCt was ltf Sl1dll-
er than ever before and work of the
clerks was simplitied to a point that
has hitherto seemed impossible.
The majority of packages which
failed to reach its destination were
these which suffered from improper
wrapping, which came tn pieces in
the mail, Oftimes falling to pieces even
before they have passed through the
hands Of the first clerks, The wrappings
become lost ana there is no means by
which the sender can be identified.
a return card inside the package
would make it. possible TO trace out
the gifts which ,ail 10 reach their des-
tination would be hung up with the
rest Christmas morning
None of the precaution advised, en-
tail more than "a little thought aud
effort hut the results would be crafty
ing not only to the postal department
but 10 thousands OF those who ex-
change gifts at Christmas time.

Farming as a Business

Agriculture is rapidly becoming an
organized business. 1t is dividing
along natural lines into separate fields
of operation. Until recent years, the
farmer endeavored to produce all his
living from his farm. He raised a
sufficient quantity OF wheat, corn, po-
tatOes, meat, fruit, ETC., TO satisfy the
needs of his family. There was prac-
tically no market for the surplus. At
present, however, there is cash mar
ket for whatever products The farmer
has TO sell. This has made it poss BILE
for him To grow those products for
which his land is naturally adapted
and for which his training and lasts
have specially prepared him to pro-
duce.
This modern trend in practical agri
culture calls for a much greater de-
gree Of skill than the old method. II
man places all his eggs in one bas
ket, he must be very certain that
the basket does not FALL on the way to
market. If "A man centers all his in
terests In one liue Of agriculture. lie
should be All expert in that liue. If
he is not, any failure will be disas-
trous, We are rapidly approaching a
time when "A man who is not a special
ist and who does not Know at least
one line OF farming very well will be
back number and will be compelled
to trudge along with a mere living
while his neighbors with special train
ing, following special lines of work,
will live in better homes ard enjoy
luxuries which the unframed man
cannot afford.
One state has made it easy for the
energetic young man TO secure this
epecial training. II he desires TO
gain special knowledge OF live stock,
