PARTIAL PARCELS POST.

A feeble attempt win be made to ex-
pertinent with the parcels post-if the
bill passed by the house becomes a
law. Packages weighing up t, eleven
pounds may be carried on rural de-
livery rates. The charges are pro-
gressive, beginning at s cents for the
first pound and running UP to Is cents
for the eleventh pound.
Not much a be done in such an
experiment, but something can. When
the Fsrgoan is away on a vacation
in the summer-if he is on or near
a rural delivery route-he can have
packages sent to him by mail. If,
however, he is staying within the reg
ular carrier limits of a postofice, he
cannot get this delivery.
That is one of the advantages of
living some miles out in the country
instead of near the postofice.
The adoption of the bill is some ad-
vancement made against the stubborn
opposition to a parcels post. More
progress was made in the adoption of
an amendment to the postoffice bill.
providing for the appointment OF a
commission to investigate and report
to the next session of congress.

A Few Mature K

- FSW NakuFs Fak6Ss
It's great to be a mermaid
This is no idle within.
Her style is v passe;
She's always in the swim.
The elephant is lucky,
No sheriff has the spunk
When closing up a circus
To levy on his trunk.
The owl is no high flyer,
But still is stylish quite
He should join the Four Hundred
For he stays out all night.
The rhino's never thirsty
He can acquire a stew"
In dry states he Is never
Without a horn or two.
The giraffe may be homely
But he's content, by heck,
The ace OF life he always
Can win out by a neck.
AS wa tc Az pALSAlCI
But reputation serves
To make it mighty risky
To get next to his curves.
The hornet is a cynic,
A pessimistic thing;
His style of conversation
Is ne'er without a sting.
The mountain goat is foxy,
No oleo eats he,
He carries his own butter
Around with him, you see.
These gags r all historic,
We did not write them first,
We're not the guilty faker,
Let r. r. do his worst.

Daddy'sBedtine
The Little Fruit
!. People and Thar
Qaeer Parade

@LLtne pretty green leaves were out on the trees. ana many o. the earlier
flowers were In full bloom, denghhng those little folks who, like Tack
a 1 and Evelyn. lived near enough to the woods to so out every day to
pick them.
The lowers are no dOubs charming but there are Other things aconins"
chanted daddy as he climbed the stairs with the children. III you ire very
very good tonight I'll tell you what dreamed.
Well / was Just shutting my eyes for forty winka I had been reading d
book, and perhaps it was a tribe duh
And suddenly I found myself In the midst Of q read, Q charming road
peepdng owe the tops Of rustic fences
What was my surprise TO hear a band Of nusc. and as ! turned corner
] saw q procession coming toward me.
st the bead Of was quite the funniest band have ever seen The dEun
major WIS q big tat crow, and behind him with trumpets and drums ana all
the other instruments which . brass band should have came q company Of
birds There was the bluebfrd and the robin and the thrush and the catbfrd,
the 6ack6rd, the vEeO, tie tanaser. the cheew1nk and many other feathersd
friends OF the garden and the fields. They looked so funny putting away at
the hornst that stood at the side Of the road and stared
After the brass band had strutted by q company OF the joNhse little cher
res ! ever hope to see came hopping along on their stems. They wore funny
cooked hats made OF cherry leaves
other OF pears
The procession dwtnded away to Htie fellows like blackberies and there
seemed TO be an endless number OF these When the bhckbe91es we're past
q lraspberres swept by, and then there were huckleber1es, and when the
elderbernes came bobbng by I exclaimed:
In the name OF common sense, who and what IN theyT
Why, DON'T you knowr a little buttercup replied, primly pushing her head
over the fence They are nice new fruit for Jack and Evelyn hurying to THAR
places on the trees In the orchard 4#
And then I suppose shouldn't have done A. for M spells che wtney, but I
Mugned right ont loud. and the pretty road and the procession and everything
vanished away, and was back in the sitting room with a dull book n my lap.
But never you mind. I think that fruit 30 n its way 70 ID. and some momng
we may wake up and ad Il on the trees"

OF RAIN.

North Dakota is so extensive in ter
ritory and the conditions from one
side to the other vary so greatly-it
seems difficult for the weatherman
to regulate the things to suit every
one. For two years there was a lack
of moisture-except last year in the
Red river valley. where conditions
were quite favorable. This year there
are complaints of too much precipita-
ton.
1t is rather strange that this COM
plant is not coming from the Red
river valley-but from localities
farther west. The complaints are not
based on the fact that the rainfall has
been extremely excessive-but rather
that it has been sufficiently heavy to
prevent seeding and delay farm work.
generally. In some localities, where
blowing was not done last fall, seeding
has been greatly retarded and only
a relatively small acreage is in up to
date. A week or two OF working
weather. would be most acceptable
just at this time-and result in a
greatly increased small grain acreage.
Should seeding be much further de-
layed the wheat acreag will be cur
tailed and the formers will have to
make up in corn. AJAX and barIey-if
good seed can be procured.

Another remarkable provision
