Uncle Sam Is Economical;
Orders Stamps Imprinted
With Inscription ~ Cents"

"Uncle Sam Is again practicing
economy in connection with his postal
stationery, and his thrift means more
new varieties for collectors" writes
Kent B. Stiles in Boys Life.
"When the wartime rate Of 3 cents
for an ordinary letter was reduced to
2 cents on July 1, there were In post
offices throughout the country excess
stocks of the Scent envelopes. The
postmaster general has sent notice to
all postal sub-agencies authorizing the
imprinting Of the inscription - cents
in red on each envelope just below the
circular die. Inasmuch as this i'm
printing is not being done at the bu-
reau Of engraving and printing at
Washington, but at sub-agencies indie
pendently, there is prospect of many
varieties of type becoming available
to collectors, and it Is not unlikely
that such errors as inverts, broken and
missing and misplaced letters, ETC., will
appear.
"The cost of an ordinary post card
was lowered to the normal l cent
and the sub-agencies have been author
lied to surcharge i c. across the cir
| cular die on each card, although this
situation is of less interest, as philate
lists do not collect postal cards.
"Of course, the imprinted envelopes
and overprinted cards sell to the pub
lie at the new prices, 2 and 1 cents, re
spectively."

DOESN'T STIMULATE GROWTH
Admonition Frequently Heard From
Authorities Is Not to Feed Pigs
Too Much Corn.

Do not feed pigs too much corn
while they are young. This is an ad-
monition we frequently hear from au-
thorities on pig raising. Here is the
reason why: Corn is n fat-producing
feed and does not stimulate growth.
What is needed is protein feed: that
is, one which ranks high in protein.
Protein makes muscle and stimulates
growth. Tankage will do very well,
but often it is impossible to secure it.
