SURVEY MAPS.
These May Now Be Obtained From
POstmasters.

The finest and most accurate maps
of the United States are those made
bv the United States geological SUR
vey. This branch of the government
service prints more than 5000 maps
a day, or about million year, most
of which are sold to the public directly
from Washington. Book and station
ery concerns in the larger cities, OF
course, handle these maps, but here
tofore there has been no way in which
the inhabitants of the small towns
throughout the country could got them
EXCEPT by sending to Washington.
Now, however, postmasters IL towns
and villages have the permission OF
the postoffice department to handle
these maps. When the geological sur
yey prints a new map it sends "a
sample COPY to the postmaster IN
the area covered, with the suggestion
that they tack it up in conspicuous
place, where everyone calling Tor man
can see it. and order sma'l STOCK
for sale to those who wish to buy me
map. This saves the purchaser the
ANNOYANCE of sending to the geological
survey and waiting until the map -
received from Washington ara also
saves the expense of postage. me
postmaster himself receives small
commission on each map Sold
MANY active postmasters are nan
ding the maps. and that their fellow
citizens appreciate the accommodation
of being able to buy government maps
at the postoffice, is shown by the mum,
her sold in this way. The record OF
maps so sold shows that postmas-
ter in Minnesota heads the list so 1ar'
having sold 125 maps the first month
he handled them. -,
Only postmasters in regions ina.
have been recently mapped have been
asked to handle the maps, but the
geological survey willingly answers

KILLING WEEDS.

Most people think of weed killing
as a job with a hoe or scythe, but
these are expensive ways. 1t is
cheaper to kill weeds before the crop
is planted. The harrow is our cheap
est weed-killing tool. Pillow ground
when dry, harrow after six or eight
days and then harrow again in about
the same time and yet again as in
this way time will be allowed for
weed seeds to terminate and the har-
rowing will do the killing. Three
borrowings, six days apart and before
planting, will kill most of the early
terminating weeds and it will be done
cheaper than it can be done with the
hoe in June. You can't kill weeds by
three harrowings in one week, as time
must be allowed for examinations.
