POSTMASTER STUMPE WANTS
KNOW IF ANY COMPLAINT

Editor News: May to 8 is set
aside by postmaster general as Pos
tai Improvement week. We desire
to get the idea of each and every pa
iron of this office relative to i'm
provement and criticism of the serv-
ice. To this end we propose to ask
the public to report wrong delivery,
delays and mishandling of mails, in
order to check the errors. We also
plan to tell the public that it will
also be checked up on misdirected
mail, postage shortage, ETC, which
viii be listed as patrons errors"
The following week we propose to
publish the number of errors made
by the public and employees without
personalities. The patrons error
will be grouped and an appropriate
comment made showing the patrons
how they could have prevented these
errors. Employees errors will also
be published and comments made to
show how errors occurred.
The postmaster's idea is to have a
contest between the public and the
employees with a view to better flu
ture service and further lenlighten-
ing the public as to the proper ham
ding of mail. 1t is hoped that the
public will join in and give us their
hearty cooperation.

BOYS AND GIRLS ARE
 IOWA FAIR WINNERS
Clifford Benson of La Mollle, Iowa, Wins Grand Champion
 ship With His Calf.

Bows and girls club demonstrations and exhibits were main features at state and county fairs this year. In a number of states the county fairs are appropriating definite amounts to carry on this work and stimulate an interest in it.
 One of the outstanding winners who just came to light at the Iowa State fair is Clifford Benson of LaMoille, Iowa, who showed the grand champion calf Hereford. With class of 3o1, it took the judge all day to decide on young Benson's calf, which was purebred named Beau Repeater. This gave Marshall county, Iowa, for the third consecutive year, the grand championship of one of the leading beef producing states of the nation. Marshall county is so elated over, the winning with competition of 366 calves that they have secured funds to send the winning steers and boys to the Nebraska State fair.
 The reserve grand championship went to an Angus calf shown by Dean Dodder of Let's, Iowa. The club boys and girls are showing, in addition to calves. around 400 swine and one thou sand head of poultry Over eight thou sand dollars in prizes is being offered to the winners by the Iowa State fair
 In the state of Minnesota, MT. T. A. Erickson, state club leader, estimates that the average appropriation of the 80 county fairs is $35O, or a total of S2S, ,OOO.
 In New York state the premiums, prizes and incidentals provided by town and county fairs, banks, schools, | farm bureaus and committees totals | S14, 300.
 In the Hawkeye state, the assistant | director of extension, P. 0. Staff, est1- mates that at least $2O,OOO is being l given in county prizes to boys and | girls this year.
 At the recent Central States fair held at Aurora, Illinois, Miss Frances Muth of Elburn, a. thirteen-year-old | girl. who has been in club work three years. won first and third place. She | also entered her pigs in the open classes and won second and eighth on junior SOW pigs and sixth on young herd and sixth on produce of dam. She raises Durocs, and good ones, having the Pathfinder strain. She plans to ] take her herd to the National Swine
 show at Peoria, and show the boys what a girl can do in the swine husl- | ness.
 Approximately S46O, ,OOO is being pro
 vided by the various counties in the
 United States this year in prizes fo1
 the boys and girls in club work Many
 county farm bureaus are contributing
 literally The total amount being or
 fered in prize money to boys and girls
 this year to encourage the work is
 $734 900.

The success of the Chicago calm paign is of interest to producers and consumers not only in the Chicago dls- trict but everywhere The new con tract contains unique features which lead many students of dairy market ing to believe that it will find applica- ton in a national way E. B. Heaton, the farm bureau dairy marketing dl- rector, who has been largely respons1- ble for the success of the plan, declares that the establishment of four pools within the main pool and the deduction of a small sum from the price in the inner district to be added to the lover Drice in the outer district in order to protect the fluid milk market from over-supply is essential to cooperative dairy marketing success in any section similar to the Chicago territory.

Important to All Women
 Readers of This Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect it.
 Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease
 If the kidneys are not in a healthy con- dition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased
 You may suffer pain in the back, head ache and loss of ambition.
 Poor health makes you nervous, lrr1- table and maybe Respondent; it makes any one so.
 But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such condl- tions.
 Many send for sample bottle to see what Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder medicine, will do for them. By enclosing ten cents to Dr. kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., you may receive sam ple size bottle by parcel post. You can purchase medium and large size bottles at all drug stores.-Advertisemen
