BARRED FROM
PARCEL POST

n Babies of tender years are barred
from the parcel pest, according to a
ruling made by the second assistant
postmaster general. There has been
much speculation as to what could be
sent by parcel post, and all sorts Of
stories have been told about the trans
mission of unusual articles through
the mail. Until yesterday the dircct
proposition whether human beings
could be sent through the mails re-,
NAMED undecided. Under the deci-
sion of the post Office department
there will be nothing doing" if at
tempts are made to send human be-
ings by parcel post.
The postmaster of Stratford, Okla,
G. w. Merrill has sent the denart-'
ment the following letter: -
u. B. Denton, of this place, asks if
he can have a child, two years of age,
sent by parcel post from Twin Fails,
Idaho, to this place. Finding nothing
in the parcel post regulations cover
ing such a case. am referring him /,
to the department"
When this letter reached the Office
Of the second assistant postmaster
general it caused mild sensation. !
The officials had never been asked to
pass upon the question, and there Was
hurried reference to the parcel postl
regulations. 1t was found that the
postmaster at Stratford was right. !
There was nothing in the parcel rost .
regulations covering such a case.
Gen. Stewart, the second assistant,
was appealed to, and, after deIiperat-
ing, he decided that all human beings I
and live animals are barred from the |
mails.
There is just one exception made
the queen bee will be passed. This Is /
the only living thing, according tn the
ruling of the post office department,
that can enjoy the privileges OF the

Binding Irvine.

Trouble is ahead for the farmers
IN the matter of binding Irvine. There
is not only record acreage of wheat,
rye and oats to be bound, but there
is more straw to the acre by far than
usual. The agricultural department
sent out word some time ago that
fully 2OO,OOO,OO0 pounds of binding
tWlne would be required and there
dld not appear to be that much in
the country. The Canadian wheat
growers through their association
provided for their wants in advance
and much Irvine was bought in the
United States. Ships loaded with
sisal, jute and henequin are blowing
their way toward the United States
and the Irvine mills are running night
and day. But the price of raw mater
lol has greatly advanced and the
farmers who have not bought their
tWlne in advance will have to pay
much higher prices.
Last year $50,740,00O worth of
the fibre of which binding Irvine is
made was imported, and the importa-
tions this year must be nearly double
or farmers will have to bind a good
deal of their wheat in the old way
with straw bands by hand. The
trouble about that will be that not
one farmer in hundred knows how
to bind wheat swiftly and easily by
hand, for few of them have had to
| do it.
Some of the wise farmers in the
west have laid in supply of Irvine
but they are not many in number. A
great majority of them have heard
nothing about the probability of a
