The postal authorities at Washington

The postal authorities at Washington,
recognizing the liability of postmasters
in getting letters in the wrong boxes,
have fixed a penalty of 5000. on persons
taking mail out of the Office other than
their own and not returning it at once.
The law also includes newspapers. The
excuse that it is the postmaster fault
cuts no ice. If you have been getting
other peoples mail you had better take
warning or you may get yourself into
trouble. CLEANSING News.

Large Attendance at a Meeting
of Historic Interest.

The Dixie Highway meeting held in
Chattanooga Saturday was very large
Iy attended, and there was lots OF en-
thusiasm over the project. Everybody
wanted the Dixie Highway to run his
particular way, and there ~as argu-
ment vergiug on rancor over the mat
ter.
The most of the session was devot-
ed to the usual speech making, and
there was lots Of it, the OLD, old story
Of how good a good road was, being
told repeatedly. The matter Of de.
termining route as left to a commit
tee to be selected by the governors Of
two from each state interested in the
road, fourteen in all The twenty
founders Of the road were not includ-
ed in the committee. This committee
will assemble all the data, as to
length and cost of each particular
route, together with the funds avail
able from each, and on this data will
be based their decision
A snerial train of six coaches left
Pikeville at a. m. to gather up Sc

evening train was delayed two hours
to bring them back, arriving here at
7:20 A very large number went to
Chattanooga several days previous to
get into the fight for the road, no less
than seven headquarters for as many
different routes being established.
The hot air now being exhausted, it
is believed the project will assume
something like business proposition.

the time to organize marketing asso-
Citations for what ever products you
are going to raise this year. No mat
ter what il is cotton, corn, tobacco,

better prices will be be obtained, bet

business like consideration will be al
lowed in every point If a group of
farmers will sell together, instead of
marketing individually. And il they
are goiug to sell together. they should
have success predestinated by making
arrangements now. Those who wait
until the crops are about ready to har'
vest, will find unexpected and unim-
aginei delays. and will only get ex-

we'll says in a talk to its farmer read
ers: "The world wants all you can
raise this summer. It needs far more
than can be produced on all our Amer
ican farms. but how is your produce
to reach the place where it will bring
you the most money! Unless the
farmers organize and market their
crops under some cooperative system
next summer, they are going to be
greatly disappointed with prices. The
middle men are organized; they know
just where to place every product and
they are going to push the consumer
up to war time prices, and hold you,
Mr. Farmer, down to over production
rates, IL possible. Your only hope for
fair division of this great wave Of
prosperity, which is surely coming
during the next eight months, is to
get together. Form associations and
plan your crops so that your output
may be combined and shipm ents made
