Emerson said: Converse with a

literature looks like mere word

Z The great philosopher evidently
meant that literature in general is
made up of high sounding sentences.
Pinned down to a close analysis, he
would doubtless have made an ex-
ception of Bible literature. In fact,
from a literary viewpoint, this great
book of books stands alone.
- Great ideas can best be expressed
in simple language. Take, for in

The Rural Delivery.

There are now about $4,000 routes
of the rural delivery service in the
United States, covering over 1,000,-
900 miles of roads and serving ap-
proximately 100000 people.
Through this great system the farm
er receives and sends out his letters,
gets his newspapers and other pub
locations, obtains money orders and
registers mail, and now, by parcel
post, exchanges merchandise - all
without trip to the postofice.
The rural delivery service has been
a great boon to the rural population.
Before it's establishment there were
days and weeks when, because of
stress Of work on the farm, stormy
weather or other conditions the farm
err was unable to make a trip to the
postoffice, and had to do without
mail, which means that he was with
out knowledge of what was going on
in the world. The exchange of letters,
receipt of newspapers and other pub
LEGATIONS, the transaction Of money
orders and registry business, and now
the parcel post, all through the rural
carrier, has worked wonders in MAX
ing the farmers business more
profitable and country life more at
- tractive. The saving to the rural
residents through the operation of
the rural delivery system, If 1t could
be Calculated would run into the
hundreds of millions of dollars. Farm
ers do not now have to- abandon their
work and take their horses from the
plows to go to the postoffice after the
mail, but can devote all their time
during the planting and harvesting
seasons to their occupations, and
conduct correspondence and secure
supplies with certainty and without
the loss of time. ,
Besides, whenever rural route is
established on road it means that
unless that road is maintained in con-
ditions to be travelled with facility at
all times, service will be withdrawn
therefrom. Generally speaking, the
highways Of the United States are
poor. The fact does not seem to be
appreciated that the building and
maintenance of good roads enables
farmers to market their produce with
greater facility, greater regularity,
and with less wear and tear on wag-
ons and stock. Since the advent of
rural delivery, there has been moth
ing which has given greater impetus
to the good roads movement than the
extension of this service.

4 New Use For tho Manure spreader.

A New Use For tho Manure spreader.
A simple adjustment, according to
the United States department Of agri-
culture will enable the farmer to use
his manure spreader when desiGable
as a wagon for bringing in root crops
intended for stock feed. The cylinder
or spreader is first removed from the
end of the box and suitable end
board set in place and held by an iron
bar or rod. At the door Of the root
cellar the end board can be readily
lifted out and the crank which con-
meets with the apron shift put on. The
roots can then be readily rolled through
the door by turning the crank by hand.
In this way the load can be delivered
in few moments. .>sl@hS s.t41
The advantages of this scheme are
obvious, for under ordinary circum-
stances the manure spreader is idle
while the harvest is in progress. '5Sa'

We agree with those editors who
criticize the legislature for not pro-
viding sufficient funds to pay the
state aid to common cshools, but we
do not agree with those who blame
the legislature for spending so much
money on the university. The uni
versity also suffered at the hands Of
the legislature. The most important
work which the state of Minnesota
does is the education of the children
of the state, and all educational in
situations from the ''little red school
house, to the great university should
be adequately provided for. The
whole educational system is a unit,
and the university cannot suffer
without the effect being ultimately
felt in the rural schools and the ru-
raj schools cannot suffer without the
university in due time suffering. If
the legislature had followed the ad-
vice of the department of education
and well-informed school men, all
schools would have been fairly treat

Christmas in Old Vermont.

When Christmas comes in old Vermont,
The ground is white and still,
The f1eecy snow is piled up high,
On house-top, tree and hill.
The air is full Of music;
The merry sleigh-beIs chime,
The clinking ring of skaters,
All seem to keep in time.
The Christmas trees, snOw-laden.
Stand out against the white,
Their ver6ant green more vivid
When clothed in frosty light.
And all throughout the country,
In farmhouse or in town,
Good fellowship and hearty cheer
In every heart is found.
It seems to me that somehow,
Up here where all is still,
We catch the Christmas spirit
Have little more Goodwill.
We miss the crowds and hustle
That means Christmas down below:
The endless round of shopping,
The tinselled gaudy show.
But up here in the mountains,
SO close to nature heart,
Ihe Christmas message rings for e'er
And never will depart.
