Julesburs Defeats Sidney

As we predicted last week the
Basket Ball game ON Saturday y
night between Sidney and Jules
burg WAS Red Hot. Probably the
fastest game ever plsyed in JULES
burg. The Sidney team out cIas-
sed our boys in size and in add
ticn had professional stheIete
with them. Their playing was
rougher than our boys are accus-
toned to but for speed and team
work the visitors were completely
outcIassed by Sedgwick County
High.
The game closed with u score
of 3, to L. in our favor and it wa.
furious from start to finish with
plenty of thrills every minute.
Credit is certainly due to Che>-
ter law in leaving II sick bed to
help our boys maintain the High

r. F. D. Boxes Nsst Not Be MiSuSed

Hood River, Ore, Nov L.. 1918.
Editor Glacier: Having been asked
frequently whether the Postal Depart
ment allows the use of rural mail
boxes for deposit of matter that has
not been stamped for mailing, or prop
erly mailed, will quote from the Pos
tai Laws and Regulations, edition of
1913. page 420:
mail boxes erected on rural routes
are intended exclusively for the recep-
tion of matter regularly in the mails,
and any mailable matter, such as cir
culars. sale bills etc., deposited therein
is subject to the rules governing the
mails, including proper addressing and
the pi yment of postage at the regular
rate.
when a rural carrier finds deposit
ed in box hlailable matter on which
postage has not been paid, addressed
to or intended for the person in whose
box it is deposited, the carrier shall
take such matter to the distributing
post office to be held for postage and
treated as prescribed by section 545. !"

to Dead Letter ofiice.)

Washington Apple Acreage Increases

Statistics compiled by the state de-
partment of agriculture at Olympia.
Wash. show that the spring planting
of 1918 has so extended the planted
area in the state that more than a
quarter of a million acres are now in
fruit trees.
Recorded paintings bring the total
fruit tree acreage to 2Sl ,9i7, with a
probability that four nurseries not re-
porting will swell this total consider
ably. Of the total acreage 230, 765
acres are in apples, 1895 being plant
ed to this fruit last spring.
While Yakima county still is the
leading fruit county of the state, lead
ing all competitors both in total acre
age and number of paintings this
spring, Okanogan and Grant counties
are showing remarkable increases in
the number of trees planted and bid
fair TO be close competitors Of Yakima
before long.
