TELEGRAPH SERVICE
INCLUDES DAY LETTER

Manager Walter De La Hunt of
the local telegraph office announces
that the Western Union Telegraph
Company inaugurates today new
form of telegraph service called
the "Day Letter. which. we believe
will immediately commend itself as
affording decided economy and
profitable advantages to the busi-
ness community. The Day Letter
is designed as the day companion
to the Night Letter.
The rate charged for Day Let
ter Of fifty words or less is one and
one half times the Night Letter
rate. and for each additional ten
words or less one-tifth the initial
charge, For example, the Willmar
Chicago Night letter rate is SO
cents; the day letter rate is one and
one-half times that or rs cents.
with Is cents for each additional
ten words. The WiIlmar- Twin City
Night Letter rate is 25 cents; the
Dav Letter rate IS cents for fifty
words.
Day Letters should be written in
plain English code language and
code words not accepted. They
may be filed at any time and are to
be transmitted as the facilities Of
the company may permit during
business hours, full rate telegraph
having priority of transmission.
AS the wires Of the Company are
in much demand during the mid
day hours. it is advisable that day
letters be filed as early in the day
as possible. Day Letters will be
accepted at all offices of the West
ern Union for transmission to any
of its offices in the United States.
| The Day Letter and the Night
Letter give to the United States
the cheapest telegraph service in
the world and enable the business
man to conduct his correspondence
by wire with all the advantages
that result from saving Of time
elimination of distance and the i'm
mediate attention invariably ac-
corded to kilograms. (;

''If''
By RUDYARD KIPL1NG.

IF you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs, and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubling, too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about don't deal in lies,
Or being hated don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, talk too wise:
IF you can dream, and not make dreams your MASTER
If you think, and not make thoughts your aim
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster,
And treat those two imposters just the same;
you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life, broken
And stoop to build 'em up with worn out tools;
II you can make one heap of all your winnings,
And risk it on turn of pitch and toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginning,
And never breath word about your loss;
1t you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
10 serve your turn long after you gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them "Hold on!'
IF you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings, nor lose the common touch;
II neither foes loving friends hurt you,
Ii all men count with you not none too much;
If you can fill the unforgving minute
With sixty seconds worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And-which is more-you1l be Man. my son.

lifting it up to shake out the grass
and stubble and to bear down upon
when the clods are hard to break"
However, these ancient agricultural
implements are about to be supplanc-
cd by modern American plows, which
at the recent exhibition of agriculture
and commerce were awarded gold
medal and by actual demonstration in
the field showed their great superior
ity over the native pillow. An initial
order for these polws has just been
placed with American manufacturers,
and other orders are expected to fol
low in due time.
The special causes necessitating 4
change from old style Siamese to mod,
ern plows are stated by a prominent
Siamese agriculturist to be that the
rice crop for the last four years has
not come up to the former average
and the reason for this failure was
that the rains had not followed the
usual course of former years; but the
farmers, taking no notice of this
change, have followed their usual Gus
toms in waiting until April or May
when the first rains begin to fall
This gentleman now contends tina
blowing should be begun in February
whether rains fall or not, but this cal
not be done with the Siamese iron
shod wooden plows, as they are no
strong enough to break up the dry
hard-baked soil, and therefore his at
tention had been directed to America
for suitable plows.
