up for horse stealing who had no coun.
sci and the Judge, with smile, ap-
pointed Free to defend him. As Free
tells the story: "The testimony against
my client was pretty strong-he had
been seen to take the horse and ride
away. But one Of the witnesses said
the thief had worn white hat and
black shirt. by pointing out that testi-
mOny Inaccurate In 0ne detail

succeeded In getting verdict Of not

Buckskln, from which gloves nrs

usually smaller than those Of sheep

EN- EARLY is
POSTOFFICE SLOGAN
Postoffice Department is Putting on
Campaign to Avoid Mail
Congestion

The local post office is joining
hands with other offices all over the
country in Mail Early campaign
and Postmaster Moores wishes to
bring to the attention of patrons Of
the local office the following notices
he received from the Post Office de-
partment. N. "a .s.sst-ifar .rto,4
''The early mailing Of Christmas
gifts and packages is very. import
ant. Millions of post cards, and
Christmas gifts are mailed every
Christmas, consequently great con-
gestion and delay occure in the var
ious offices, where they are all mail
ed just few days before Christmas.
Therefore if you want your gifts and
Christmas greetings to reach your
friends on or before Christmas day,
be sure and mail them in plenty Of
time. The post office department
gives the following schedule to fol-
low:"
Christmas gifts and cards address,
ed to points within one days travel
should be mailed not later than De-
scember 20; within two days. travel,
not later than December 10; within
three days. travel, not later than De-
cember Is. For more distant points,
not later than December IA; Parcels
and cards for local delivery, not lat
er than December %. All parcels
and envelopes may be endorsed:
please do not open until Christmas"
Christmas stamps, stickers, tuber-
culosis seals, etc. must not be plac-
ed on the address side Of mail mat
ter. In using Christmas stickers they
should be so placed 50 as not to seal
the package.

to familiarize them with the informa.
ton soon to be called for by the emu
merators. In addition to the usual in
quiries relative to production, values,
and farm expenses, the schedule calls
for the amount of taxes paid by the
farm operator on farm property, in
GLIDING real estate tax, personal
property tax, and special assessments.
It is important to ascertain just what
the burden of taxation resting upon
the farm really is and how it COM
pares with the amount Of taxes paid
by other interests. This may point
the way to a more equitable adjust
ment of the tax burden.
Heretofore, the census of agricul-
ture has always been taken in con-
nection with a complete census of
population. This time it will cover
the farm population only, showing
the number Of persons living on the
farm, including the family of the
operator and the farm laborers and
their families. These persons will be
classified under or over ten years
of age and as white or colored.
The extent to which farm operators
used the purchasing and selling faci-
lities of farmers organizations will
be brought out by two inquiries; one
calling for the value of products of
the farm sold through a farmers
marketing organization, and the 9TH
er calling for the value of all farm
supplies purchased from or through
a farmers organization. An addi-
tional index to the marketing con-
ditions will be brought out by an
swers to inquiries as to the kind of
road adjoining the farm, whether
concrete, brick, macadam, gravel, i'm
proved dirt, or unimproved dirt, and
the distance to the nearest market
town. Through inquiries of this char
acter the census seeks to secure in
formation relative to conditions upon
which to a considerable degree, the
success of farm operation depends.
