AT present that burden Is borne chief.
~ by the parcels of light weight. By
Commissioner Lanes decision the
small package will bear no greater
share per pound of the cost of trans
portation than the heavy package,
and every package weighing less than
100 pounds will bear the same amount
of terminal expense.
The charges of the express compan.
les now, in many instances, are the
same for so pounds as for 100 pounds,
between the same points; and In some
instances they are as much for 80
pounds as for 100 pounds. Under
such system the householder is CON-
PEELED to pay as much for 10-pound
package as q dealer would pay for a
25.pound package, and three or four
times as much as the dealer would
pay for 10 pounds included in 100
pound shipment.
Commissioner Lane expresses the
belief that the system proposed will
make practicable the opening of di.
rect avenues of trade between the
farm and the city household He like.
wise is Of opinion that, while the re.
duction Of the rates on the lighter
weight parcels will average between
20 and 80 per cent, the express com.
panies themselves will be the bene.
flciaries of u largely increased bust.
ness In the handling of small parces
The report shows that more than
300, 100000 parcels are handled annu
ally by the express companies in the
United States.
or foremost importance is the re
quirement that all the express com
panies shall join in the establishment
of through routes by the quickest lines
of communication between all express
Offices and shall publish through rates
to apply between the points. The
same provision gives the shipper the
right to name the route By which his
property shall be carried.
The most radical departure from ex
isting methods lies in that adopted
of applying the new rates. In the
United States there are 35 1000 express
stations. To name rates from each
of these to every otter one requires
the statement of moe than 100000,
900 different rates. These schedules
now occupy several hundred volumes
of from 200 to 300 page, each In the
tariff department of the commission
The rates themselves are intricate and
involved and 1t requires expert au
thority to determine the lawful rate
between any two points.
The problem Of reducing this enor
nous volume Of rate schedules to q
genuinely practicable compass Is one
to which Commissioner Lane devoted
most serious attention. He has evolv
ed u spethod by which the rates. from
any point IN the United States to al
other points may be printed on sin
gle sheet or card shout one-fourth ol
the size Of single newspaper page.
While there has been an almost uni
form reduction In charges upon parcel.
weighing so pounds or less, the rates
on packages weighing more than 81
pounds have not been materially re
duced.
The rates proposed. however, will
not become effective before some tim'
next autumn. The commission hal
fixed Oct. . as the date for the begin
ming of hearing of the representa-
tives of express companies and ship
pers as to why the rates prescribed
by the commission should not go int
effect.

Girls FIGHT With Bear.

On a lonely mountain trail in Clal-
lam county, Wash, Miss Mary Schmitz.
a girl in her teens, had a battle with a
bear, in which she came out victorious.
Miss Schmitz was employed in a hotel
at Lake Crescent. She decided to visit
her parents. who live in the heart Of
the Olympic mountains, thirty miles
from the lake.
The only road to her home is a trail

the hotel presented her with a revolver
and a belt filled with cartridges, in

She had proceeded fifteen miles when
she sighted q bear in the trail coming
toward her. She shouted, thinking that
the animal would take to the bushes,
but instead it continued to advance.
She opened fire. After several shots
the bear left the trail, giving her the
right Of way. When she reached the
place where the bear took to the bush.

ton she found the animal a few yards
from the trail lying dead as a result of

THEY TRIMMED TIL WHISPERS NIGEL
m%ediately, and in the course of half a

feasting on a buffalo and it was pour

There were six Indians and seven
white men in pursuit, three of them
Mr.. Bryan's sons. In consequence Of
the rain the old cap and ball guns
would not fire. The Indians could not
shoot because their bowstrings were
wet. The white men got nea the bucks
before they were discovered, raised a
yell, stampeded their horses and left
them afoot. The white men dubbed
their guns, knocked the Indians in the
head, scalped them and then went
back to take off old man Bryan's
beard. He begged pitifully, but the
boys had their fun. So they trimmed
the whiskers nicely with the sheep
shears and then shaved him clean.
Mr.. Bryan lived many years, but this
was the last time he was ever shaved.
The boys concluded to have some
further fun with those whiskers, so
they procured the carmine juice of the
pokeberry and dyed them a beautiful
crimson hue. Then they stuck the

Many other injurious insects are also
eaten.
The value of the prairie hen as a
game bird also is a large item in it's
favor. Here again only the surplus
stock should ever be killed, leaving
plenty of birds to propagate to keep
up the supply.
In North Dakota, where the law per
mits domestication of prairie hens.
there is an opportunity for developing
a profitable addition to the income on
every farm. They become tame very
readily and multiply rapidly in cap
tivity. They will feed among the other
domestic fowl and the very high price
which they now bring on the market
for food and for purposes of propaga-
ton should make their domestication
highly profitable. This is a matter that
should receive large attention in the
Dakotas and Minnesota. The birds
have been exterminated in many parts
OF the country and there Is a large de.
mand for domesticated birds for re-
stocking these localities as we'll as for

PREVENTING SMUT.
Formaldehyde Treatment Best Method
of Disinfectinq.

VI D'SiatICStilSs
There are only two types of smut
one which can be prevented by seed
treatment and one which cannot be
prevented by seed treatment. Loose
smut Of wheat cannot be prevented
by ordinary seed treatment, although
there are indications that some bene-
fit occurs Sinking smut of wheat
and loose smut of oats and barley can
be prevented by seed treatment. All
things considered, the formaldehyde
treatment is the best method of seed
disinfecting. In the case Of sinking
smut it is a real remedy when the
work is properly done and carried on
each year. There is no need of any
farm producing sinking smut of wheat
or loose smut of oats. Loose smut of
corn is not prevented by treatment of
the seed. The most satisfactory con-
trolling of loose smut of corn is to go
into the corn field each year and Sc
lect the stocks which show smut
masses, cut the smut masses off and
destroy them by fire before they are
mature. The most %effectual method
of controlling loose smut of wheat is
to plant a seed plat for growing seed
for the coming year, 60 through it
and rogue or pull out all of the heads
which show smut. Bag the smutted
heads before the smut begins to scat.
ter and destroy them by fire. The
loose smut of oats and corn is dis
tributed from plant to plant by means
of the wind, in much the same manner
as occurs in rust. They increase also
from the spores which fall on the
ground from year to year.-H. L

Puts Ball In Mouth; Can't Remove 1t.

Robert Wilson, a Philadelphia youth,
made a bet with several companions
that he had the largest mouth in the
crowd and to prove his assertion
thrust a pool ball between his jaws.
He won the wager. but lost several
teeth, for the ivory bali fitted his
mouth so well that it took two hours
work on the part Of physicians at the
C%hildren's Homeopathic hospital to ne
move the ball, and that was accom-
plished only after the forceps had been
used. The pain from the distended
jaws was so great that five front teeth
had to be sacrificed.
