ONE-FOURTH INCREASE
In POSTOFFICE RECEIPTS
Bigger Staff, More Business and
Better Equipment, Report of
Postmaster

An increase of rs per cent in
postal receipts over the receipts of
the same quarter last year, is re-
ported by Postmaster Hope of the
local Office. This percentage is based
upon actual cash revenue, and does
not take into account the reduction
of the postage on first class mail
from three to two cents. If this had
been taken into consideration, the
percentage would, of course, be much
larger. Much of the increase, how
ever, is due to the parcels post SER
vice, which was much heavier during
the present holiday season, than it
was last year. Taken as a whole,
the increase is an unquestionable in
dication Of greater business and
prosperity in Morris and thruout the
county for the last year.
Two new members, clerk and one
auxiliary carrier have been added to
the local staff, and new equipment,
including floor truck, delivery cart,
EdisonDick mimeograph, and bailing
press has been received.

ON TUESDAY EVENING
Funeral Services to Take Place This
Afternoon; Third Death in Family
Within Eight Months

Mrs. Dora Grove quietly sank
to her eternal rest, at her home on
East Seventh street, on Tuesday af-
ternoon of this week, after an ill
ness of about two months.
Mrs. Grove had many friends here,
having lived in Norris for seven
years, and on a farm in the vicinity
for a number of years previous to
that time. =. She was born in Port
land, Iowa, sixty-four years ago, and
was married in 1884 to Sam Grove.
Before coming to this state they made
their home in Iowa.
Altho she had been i'll with heart
trouble for some time, her death was
totally unexpected until Tuesday
morning, when she took sudden
turn for the worse. Five children
two daughters and three sons, sur
vive the deceased: Eliza and Dora,
of Morris; George and Marion of
Minneapolis, and Will of Waterloo,
Iowa.
This is the third death which has
occurred in the family within the
last eight months; Mr.. Grove passed
on the 10th of May, and his son,
Horny Lorenzo on the 28th of Oct
Ober.
Funeral services will take place at
the home this afternoon, at two
o'clock, Rev. Symons of the Congre-
gationl church officiating. Inter-
ment will be at Summit cemetery.
The two sons, Will and George have
arrived for the funeral, but it has
not been possible to notify Marion,
who is a travelingman, and away
from his home at present. E. A.
Terry of Decatur, ILL.,, a brother of
the deceased and two nephews Leo
and Russell Terry of Rhodes, Iowa,
arrived yesterday to attend the fun
eral.

Potatoes in Box Car Burn

A box car of potatoes which was
standing on the. Great Northern
tracks near the station caught fire at
about eight o'clock on Wednesday
evening, and it was necessary to call
out the fire department to extinguish
the flames, which might otherwise
have spread to other cars, and even
to the station. The fire started from
the oil stove which was kept in the
car to prevent the potatoes from
freezing. 1t burned up the side of
the car, and thru the roof at one end.
The fire department reached the car
within a very short time and the fire
was put out by means of chemicals.
It was feared for time that near
by car which contained hay would
also catch fire, but that danger was
soon eliminated.

FARM BUREAU MEETING
TO BE HELD JAN. 20
Membership in State Farm Bureau
Federation to Be Discussed; 1920
Officers to Be Elected
BY G. w. Nash.

Owing to the weather and poor
roads, the Annual Farm Bureau
Meeting, held Dec. 3rd, was poorly
attended and business of Importance
could not be taken up. 1t has been
decided to call another meeting for
Tuesday, Jan. Goth, hoping that con-
ditions will be more favorable for a
large attendance
One of the important matters to
come up is the membership in the
State Farm Bureau Federation. I'm
less application for membership in
the federation is made at this meet
ing, we will not be one of the Charter
members of the State Fedration,
which will, no doubt, be formed at
the Federation Meeting at st. Paul,
Jan. 30th.
Other matters of Importance are
the election of officers and the plan
ming of the program of work for
1920.
w. E. Morris, Assistant County
Agent Leader for this part of the
state, will be present to address the
meeting.
The annual meeting is the one
time in the year when each Farm
Bureau member has the opportunity
of hearing the results of the years
work, of effective work. Non Farm
Bureau members can also derive much
benefit from this meeting and we
hope that each member will come
himself and bring non Farm Bureau
member with him.
The meeting will be held at the
West Central School of Agriculture.
A short session will be held before
noon after which lunch will be
served in the dining hall The after
noon session will begin promptly at
100 O'Clock. The following program
will be presented:

BIG YEAR EXPECTED
BY REAL ESTATE MEN
y. H. Devenney Give Four-Minute
Booster Talk at Minnesota Realty
Owners and Dealers Association

J. H, Devenney represented Stew
ems county in the -Four Minute Talk
Test which was held under the aus
pices of the second annual conven-
tion of the Minnesota Realty Onwers'
and Dealers Association, in st. Paul,
last evening. =.
!, This contest was part of the two
day program which is being held at
the st. Paul Hotel. One speaker was
selected from each county, and this
speaker was scheduled to present, in
the most favorable and convincing
terms possible, the advantages and
beauties of his county. Competent
judges selected the three winners in
this contest, who will receive three
silver trophies Qoving-eups) which
will be their permanent property
These speeches are to be published in
the Twin City papers and will re-
ceive as general circulation thruout
the state as it is possible to give
them. =
The association is interested in re-
ceiving any information regarding
conditions in the various counties.
A short time ago it sent out ques-
tionnaires Ito the county realty as
socia tions in the state asking the
following question: How many
farms changed hands in your county
during the year? What was the
average price paid per acre? The
highest price? What are your busi-
ness anticipations for the coming
year? The5answer which was made
by the local association to the last
question was to the effect that while
it had looked for time as tho many
of the settlements made would not be
cleared away, conditions had changed
to. such an extent, that it was now
safe to prophesy that fully SO per
cent of the deals contracted for,
would be closed after the settlements
were: made on, March 1. Real estate
men, are, in fact, looking for the
best year they have ever had.
The Minnesota Realty Association
published the. answers made to three
questions, and. there was in all of
them, a general feeling of optimism
as to conditions in the coming year.

Morris is Sugarlegs

"No sugar in town." was the
cheerless answer given to many anxi-
Gus housewives who telephoned for
sugar at their grocers' on Wednes-
day of this week. A little-a very
little-has come in since, and one
of the merchants reports that he has
five sacks coming which will be in
by the first of the week. 1--WE have
received promises of sugar for Febru-
ary first" says Mr.. Belverud, of the
Weum-Belverud Company, "but at
rather exhorbitant prices. The sit
uation is trying one for both mer-
chants and consumers, but we look
for a plentiful supply of sugar at
normal prices by April"
