ENOUGH POSTAGE PAID.

Those who urge that increased post
age should be paid on newspapers and
other second-elass mail matter are
making sorry arguments. They as
sert that the proposed increase is
just and necessary they fail dis
mally in their attempts to prove that
such is the case. Their theories are
refuted by facts. Collected statistics
do more than show how greatly news
papers and other publications have
augmented postal receipts. At the
close of the Civil war the total annual
revenue of the postofice department
was only s14,556.15s.70. Last year the
postal receipts were s2S7, ,926.6s.
Previous to 1885. when the postage
rate was higher, the increase in the
quantity of second class mail matter
carried was not particularly notable.
But since then what has been done is
wall shown by the following figures

who earn their livelihood as wage-

and 1911 second-class matter increas-

In the past twenty-five years the use
Of the telephone has grown from COM

importance. The Increased availa-
bility Of the telephone. in numerous
instances, made letter writing unnec-
essary. The number OF letters mailed,
therefore. did not increase in exact
proportion to the growth of popula-
tion--and the amount of business done
But as the circulation Of newspapers
and other publications multiplied the
amount of second class mail matter
was increased proportionately and the
postal service proAted accordingly
Declaration made some time ago
more as departmental guess than
as verified statement. that the gov
eminent loses a large sum annually
through handling second-class mall
matter at present rates--was ques-
toned at once. Since then 1t may be
said that it has been demonstrated
that the allegation has no foundation
In fact. The postal department. spent
over $25o,O0O in the endeavor to prove
that the government loses money in
transporting second-class mail matter
at the present rate of postage. The
expenditure was futile. The EFFORT was
unsuccessful. Postoff1ce statisticans
are unable, apparently. to explain why
the postal revenue per capita should
be augmented four times faster than
the increase Of population.

FRIDAY, DEc. IS. 1911.
a CENTRAL MARKET.

ON several occasions The Forum has
called attention to the excellent OPP
portunity In Fargo for central mar
ket. That a well conducted market
would make a noticeable reduction in
the cost OF living is generally conced-
ed.
The commercial club has taken the
matter up-and a committee will in
vestigate its feasibility. There are
many grocers in Fargo forced to carry
lines Of vegetables against their per-
sonsl wishes-merely to supply the
demands of their customers. They
would gladly evade the responsibility
Of handling that class Of produce-if a
central market could be established.
About the only class Of people who
would protest vigorously would be the
meatmarket men. II there was CEN
trail market the farmers could bring in
butchered meats and in the winter
time, especially, these could be sold
insbulk. In this manner the farmers
conid receive considerably more than
they can now secure from the local
dealers--and at the same time the
consumers would be able to purchase
more cheaply. There would be a Wis
ibie reduction in the cost Of living.
Every farmer who brought produce
here for sale would have cash with
which to purchase goods from the To-
cal merchants--and there would be a
greatly increased retail trade in prac-
tically every line.
The greatest benefits to be derived
would be from the fact the housewives
OF Fargo would learn to do their own
marketing. They would visit the GEN.
tral market and incidentally the local
stores. Purchasers could secure fresh
err and better supplies by personal eff
fort than by ordering over the phone.
The expense of delivery would be
eliminated and the dealers could sell
more eheaply.
ket-properly conducted-would be a
big advantage. 1t would be a nice
thing to drop in Fargo's sock for
Christmas.

GIFTS FOR EvERYHopY.


AS Christmas time draws near, peo-
pie begin to think OF, what they shall
give, and to whom they shall give
and the list is so long that they are
discouraged. What If you were told
that you could give to everybody you
knew. and to those you did not know,
something for Christmasl 1t is pos
sible. You can give to everyone you
meet something, and it won't cost you
cent--on the other hand, you will be
all the richer for IT.
You can give bright smile to the
poor cripple, as you pass him by--and
word Of encouragement to cheer
him.
You can give a kind thought to the
tired clerks who wait on you across
the counter-and be careful not to
cause them an extra step If you can
save them from it. shop early and
not add to their work during the rush
hours-they will appreciate it, and you
will get better service.
Think of the little delivery boys and
take your small purchases home with
you, thus saving them the unneces-
sary trip.
Give a thought to the mail and ex-
press clerks, and send your packages
early in the season so they viii not be
so rushed with the work near Christi
mas time.
Give kind thought to the poor men,
women and little children who are at
flicted with that dread disease, tuber-
culosis. Help swell the fund that is
to be devoted to its prevention, and
their cure, by buying Red Cross seals
and placing one on every package you
mail or express.

N. o. CROP VALUES.


The Farm. Stock and Home calls at
tention to the increased value of North
Dakota crops as follows:
1t was but four or five years ago
when North Dakota Dragged about it's
$100,000,000 crop, and with good reas-
ons. Last season and this were bad
years in many respects, and over a
large section of the state, and yet the
cash value of the North Dakota crop
is set by its careful men at not less
than s15O.OOo.O0o When all due all
lowance is made for the increased
acreage in crop this is a showing that
scarcely justifies the fears Of the pes
simists. and it is the best kind of arr
gument to convince those who had a
short crop this season that at bottom
there is nothing wrong with the flick
ertail state.
