MAIL YOUR PACKAGES.

With the start today Of the parcel
post in this country comes period of
experiment for the government and
the hour of trial for post office clerks
until the system has adjusted itself
You can mail almost anything to
any point provided it does not weigh
more than eleven pounds.
Ordinary stamps must not be used
A special red stamp ranging in price
from once cent TO 81 has been provid-
ed
You cannot register these parcels,
but for ten cents may insure them up
to $50. Special delivery stamps will
not avail unless full postal rates are
paid.
Packages must be dropped in street
package boxes. given to the carriers
on rural or star delivery routes or de-
posted at main post offices or
branches designated by letters
Branch offices designated by numbers
will not receive them.
OF course, just at this season there
are some packages a lot of persons
would like to get rid of in any way
But that's another story.

fear not.
1t would be interesting to know
how many of our rural brethren take
advantage of the excellent informa-
ton that may be had for the asking.
by applying to the Department of
Agriculture at Washington, or to
similar departments in various uni
versities such as Purdue or the Uni
versity of Wisconsin.
A cursory inspection of farming
too much of the work is carried on in
haphazard. hit-or-miss fashion. The
average Lake County farmer is
prosperous, but there is many tiller
of the soil, who is more or less sue
cessful despite his slipshod methods.
This may. be attributed more to his
natural resources than to his brains.
He is short changing himself every
season.
Intensive and scientific farming in
Lake County is still in its infancy. A
way, and it is refreshing to talk to
one of these. Instead of being
empiricists who are guided solely by
their own limited experiments, they
quote with definiteness the findings
of experts. They have long ago come
to the conclusion that there is after
all something worth while in books
and government bulletins.
The most vital lesson that the fu-
ture average farmer of Lake County
will have to learn, and learn apace
with the rapid development in the
north end, is that he is farming toe
much land.
Scientific management, which is
now the watch word in every line Of
endeavor, will solve the problem o.
bigger returns on smaller acreage ant
experts are willing to instruct.

A LONG FELT WANT.

Indiana Harbor is to have a flag
man at the Michigan avenue crossing
of the Pennsylvania right of way
This is a much needed safeguard.
The crossing at this point has long
been known as deaths crossing, Z"
and the hope that equipping it with
gates would adequately protect the
public has failed. While the gates
offer some protection, and have
doubtless saved some from death and
injury, the slaughter has continued
owing to the tendency on the part of
the public to beat the gates" This
penchant has led persons who have
been content to wait while one train
went by, to duck under the gates be-
fore they We're raised, under the i'm
preston that it was only a case OF
the tower man being slow, and tc
| rush blindly in front of another train
coming from an opposite direction.
With fagman on the crossing il
| is to be hoped that the death and in.
/ jury here inflicted will be reduced tt
a minimum.

WHERE WAS HE THEN 2

Lawrence Becker, OF Hammond,
well known Lake county politician,
delivered at the Jackson Day banquet
at Lafayette, vigorous speech in
which he denounced in upmeasured
terms the democratic state platform
of 1912. He declared that this plat
form was the result of IAN organized
conspiracy on the part of the special
interests involved He added: 1T
was not a mere coincident that seven
of the thirteen members of that COM
mittee were on the payroll, either as
attorneys or agents, of public fran
chise-holding corporations.
Mr.. Becker may be right, but he is
slightly belated in his outburst
Where was he when the work of this
resolutions committee was submitted
to the democratic state convention,
and not a word of protest against it
was uttered from the floor? Where
was he during the last state cam
paign, when there were two princi-
pal parties of opposition in Indiana,
both declaring in their state plat
forms for constitutional convention,
for a public utilities commission, for
a primary law, and for many other
reforms in behalf of which Mr.
Becker now raises his clarion voice
The truth is that during the campaign
Mr.. Becker was trotting humbly
along in the harness refusing aid OF
encouragement to political parties in
! cooperating in their creed about al
| that he now insists is now an es-
sential part of the Indiana democratic
| faith. There was time and place
for the courageous avowal of opposi
ton to the democratic state platform

says he believes now-but for some
reason or other this now demonstra
tive friend of the people let tn,
chance go by-let himself be taker

every one went home disappointed.
Among the number at the banquet
were all of the local aspirants for the
position of postmaster, and not a
single word of encouragement for any
of them came from the lips of Mr..
Peterson, who is expected TO name
the next postmaster for Lafayette
Men who had denounced him in the
nominating convention as corpora
ton lawyer faced him at the banquet,
and the olive branch was extended by
the congressman to be addressing
them as brothers, but he still failed
to say anything about the postoffice.
AS that is the biggest plum in the
whole district the disappointment
over his silence was Acknowledgements

1t is proverbial that love matches

True, love is blind and some
