DIDN'T WORK BY SCHEDULE
Impossible for Rural Postwar to Tell
Just When the Next Mail
Would Go Out.

A day of mist aud rain and driving
wind, and over the turn of the hill a
mans figure making his way, the only
human being that had been seen for
days. He came straight into the house
with his postbag, and kindly smile.
He had a military bearing and spoke
like a schoolmaster with a university
education. He explained how he had
come round that way aid expected TO
carry back letters ready for the post.
A rush was made and what could be
put together was intrusted to him.
"What about tomorrow" was the
question asked by those unacquainted
with the ways of the rural post.
when does the post go out?" slow
smile gathered on the postman's face.

ing His head ut depends entirely on
when it comes in."-Christian Science

Takes over Rent curblna job.

t"N~S ONGT HcuI OuFDl0g JOD.
The Wisconsin railroad commission
has taken over the task of admins
tering the rent curbing law. The rent
| bureau, which administered the law
under the general supervision of the
/ commission has closed its office in
Milwaukee. This action was caused
by the refusal of the lower house to
concur in the senate bin appropriating
ml additional $4,000 for operation of
the bureau in Milwaukee. The law
applies only to Milwaukee county.
This denial of additional funds to
carry on the work ends all chances
of carrying on operations of the act,
Walter Bender, rent arbiter, said
when apprised of the assembly action
The senate unanimously passed the
bin allowing the extra money. The
lower house vote was 40 to II. The
law remains In effect The argument
was advanced by the bill's opponents
that high office rent had eaten up the
appropriation provided and that the
bureau had been too costly for the
work it accomplished. It was stated
on the floor of the assembly that the
cost per case had been practically SO,
which was held exorbitant.

Which Would Lower the Price

many years in Brazil and Nicaragua,
states that women will be able to pur-
chase blouses, Jumpers. and even cos
tunes, made of leaves and Feelings.
Men may be offered suits and under
wear of the same materials.
This man has devised a machine
which can extract weaving threads
from bananas, pineapples, and other
fibrous plants. For example, the leaf
of the wild pineapples gives thread
over two yards long.
He hopes later TO be able to utilize
the skins of many other fruits. 1t is
10 he hoped that he succeeds. for the
cost of clothes will be considerably
less than those made Of preseht-day

May Result in Big Saving.

A saving of several hundred thou
sand dollars to the State of Wisconsin
will be the result of recent con-
ference in the corporations room at
the capitol. to which State Highway
Engineer A.. II. Hirst called railroad
officials, contractors and material pro-
ducers Of sand, cement, crushed stone
and gravel, it was disclosed
Some Of the agreements Mr. Hirst
obtained for the state are:
Cooperation between railroads. con.
tractors and producers and the state,
saving expense caused by delays and
misunderstanding
Possible reduction of certain freight
rates.
Reduction Of material prices. de-
pendent on output of producers and
on reduction of freight rates.
Agreement by the Surety Bonds as
sociation to send delegation to Mr.
Hirst to confer on reduction of premi.
ums paid by the state on bonded con-
tractors jobs.
The latter proposition was taken up
by Mr. Hirst when he considered the
~ per cent premiums paid by the
state excessive.
In the conference with the railroad
officials the latter promised to do their
best in furthering highway work in the
state.
Another difficulty confronting the
highway commission was the construc-
ton of sidings for the dumping of
construction materials. Heretofore the
highway commission has had the OPP
