THE HORSE SHOW.
Somewhat Disappointed
In Number of Animals Entered.
In Mondays Show.

The third annual horse show held
in Sank Centre under the supervision
of the Agricultural Society of Stearns
County, Monday, March 10th, was
something of a disappointment to the
promoters as only eleven animals
were entered.
= Last year nearly thirty owners took
advantage of this opportunity to show
their animals to the farmers of this
locality and it was quite generally
expected that this years show would
be even larger.
Every animal entered received a
handsome blue ribbon as a souvenir
of the event.

Sank CENTRE Will
CELEBRATE July 4
FAIR DIRECTORS DECIDE TO PUT
ON CELEBRATION OF THE
NATIONAL DAY.
RACING; Other ADJUSTMENTS
FARMERS ASKING FAIR OFF
GERS TO HELP PUT DOWN
HOG CHOLERA.

At meeting of the directors of the
Stearns County Fair held at the Com
mercial Club rooms Monday evening,
it was unanimously voted to hold a
monster celebration of July 4th this
year. Of course, as July 4th falls on
Sunday this year, the celebration will
naturally be held either Saturday or
Monday. 1t may run for two days in
which event it will no doubt be July
9Th and 9th, and a strong racing pro-
gram will be put on. The details have
not been worked out. But that Sank
Centre will celebrate properly is a
foregone conclusion.
A number of farmers residing in
the vicinity of Meir's Grove, appre-
ciating the splendid work done under
the direction of the Fair Association
last year in putting down hog cholera,
sent a delegation to Ben Dubois a
few days ago with the request that
the Association help them stamp out
the disease which is apparently
breaking out in their neighborhood
again this year. The actual work
last year was done by Mr.. Dubois, and
Prof. Gibson, of the agricultural de-
partment of the public schools and it
was voted to appoint these gentlemen
as committee to have full charge of
the work this year to handle it in such
manner as their judgment dictates.

MAIL COUNT STARTS TODAY
Quarterly Count of Rural Route Bus
mess to be Taken for Thirty
Days.

The quarterly count of mail han
died on the rural routes of Sank Cen
tire will begin April ! and continue for
80 days. The rural mail carriers must
count every piece of mail handled by
them and must weigh and separate
them into four classes, keeping a
record of all mail handled.
The semi-annual report on parcel
post business must also be made up
during April, the count beginning
April l and lasting Is days. Both in
coming and outgoing mail are counted.
For outgoing mail the weight and the
total number of each parcel from one
ounce to so pounds going to each zone
are RECONCILIATION incoming mail each
piece is counted and record kept of
the number of parcels delivered by
city carrier, by rural carrier and
through general delivery.
These counts are taken simultan-
eously all over the country and the re-
ports made to the postoffice depart
ment at Washington. The figures are
interesting in that they show the
growth of the postoffice business in
any given city.
