We shall not have a perfect postal
system until we have given the post
masters life positions or during good
behavior. After a man filled the po-
sition for sixteen years he is worth
but little for anything else; under
the party rule of the past sixteen
years the demand for help from the
office holder has been urgent and
heavy and few men have managed to
save anything out of the salary. 1t
may be said that man is not requir-
ed to stick to the job, but it is a
sort of job that holds man after he
has had it. No harm will be done
any party or any man when the sys-
tenn is made permanent.

long term lease of orchard property
and this Is a great step forward. No
man can give satisfaction II he must
move every year and 1t is more i'm
portant with fruit growing than
grain growing. A discussion of this
question is uppermost in all farm
papers and is solution of the lack
of proper returns on rental property.
There is a very few If any of the
orchards which are cared for by ten
ders or by hired help that have given
the landlords an interest at all on the
investment. This is true in all 9TH
er states and longer terms are being
agitated for leasers in an attempt to
solve the difficulty. Several three
year leases have been signed in this
county this spring.
This is the time OF the year when
the taxpayer raises a howl and many
of them are warranted. but as a rule
they are w.rranted against the Of
ficials who make the leyies rather
than the assessor who fixes the val
ues. If the assessor gets all property
in each locality equally as to value
he cannot be censured, because it is
then up to the localities TO raise or

ministration of affairs. If II is ne
oessary to raise a large school fund
it is done by raising or lowering the
levy and If valuations are high then
the levy can be low in order to raise
the right amount to meet the de-
rand. A very small part of the
taxes are expended at the county
seat or state capital. 1t is the school,
city and special levies that call for
the big money.
In several of the school districts
the levy is more than the law allows
and II the valuations were lower
there would have to be still higher
levy; it is the money! the officials
are after. Then the main thing for
an assessor to do. is' to get the land
values equal as between one man and
his neighbor and as between one sec
ton and another. From all accounts
the land values this year are too high
in the lower valley, but If they are
reduced it would not reduce the
amount of taxes.
The February issue of the Country
Gentleman has an article on the
question of farm insurance. The
grower pays a higher rate for in
surance than the city man, yet there
are hundreds Of local mutual insur-
ance organizations in MANY states
which are reducing the cost of this
necessary item to almost nothing. In
Minnesota there are 154 township
organizations; the Grange in many
counties in eastern Colorado is car
rying insurance for almost nothing
and the Farmers Union is doing the
same thing. 1t is in such items as
this that the farmer or fruit grower
must find some of the profit he is
losing annually.

ous younger sons of varied brands of aristocracy,

her.
The new American girl of the Latin states is
strangely composite of the old and the new order
