SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 2, 1922 T TUDAY'S BLUNDER | | TOkRECTED | (By A. P. Ritchie) Postmaster, City of Bemidji It is always best to use standard size cards or envelopes. During the Christmas, Easter and Jewish holi- day seasons great quantities of very small envelopes and cards are put into the mails, with the result that all postal work is very much retard- ed and considerable mail disfigured and torn. These small and irregular shaped envelopes and cards do not run freely through our postmarking machines, but frequently get caught in -belts and are mutilated and torn; and many of them are of such odd shapes \that they must be held out of the regular mail and postmarked by - hand, which is a slow and tedious - process. Delay is also caused by the fact that small sizes do not fit into letter packages readily and cannot be tied securely. USE FIREFLIES AS ORNAMENTS Cuban Ladies Employ Them for Adornment—Give Light for Do- mestic Purposes in Haitl. The most brilliant fireflies are found only in the warmer regions of the world. The ordinary firefly gives off a very much brighter light if placed In warm water. Fine print can be read by the light of one kind which is found in the West Indies. In Cuba the ladies have a fashion of imprison- ing them as dress ornaments, and in Haiti they are used to give light for domestic purposes, eight or ten con- fined in a vial emitting sufficient light to enable a person to write. The fireflies seen so often on summer eve- nings in “Ameticd are shnilar to the species of beetle called the glowworm in Great Britain, although the glow- worm there does not give-as much Hght as the firefly in America. ‘It is really only the female which “is the firefly, for the male is not equipped with any lighting power. She seems to possess the power of mod- erating-or increasing the light at will. Cowboys Fear Fiattleweed. On cattle ranches of the Southwest it was quite common to hear refer- ¢nces to a horse as loco—the Spanish for crazy—and to a horse being rattleweeded. In such cases the be- llef was current that the -animal’s mulish eccentricities were caused by its eating wild rat}leweed. 1 have seen possibly half a-dozen such horses in cowboy groups and once used one |” of them myself. But whether” the crankiness was caused by rattleweed or by early mishundling I am unable to say. That rattleweed makes range horses crazy is a common belief . among the greasers and most of the older white range riders of the far . West.—~New York Sun. WANT ADS secutive insertions.

T, .Carlson. 5t12-4 DIDN'T FOOL THE CONDUCTOR Traln Official Seldom Deccived by Travelers Who Imagined They Ap- peared Used to Luxuries: The Woman had never been in a compartment on a train before. She must confess this bit of luxurious ig- norance. She was scated comfortably, réading and looking out of the window alternately, and greatly enjoying the privacy when she heard a buzzing sound. Again and again it sounded. Doubtless the people in the next com- partment ringing for the porter. And then came a knock at the door. “I hope I dldn’t disturb you,” the conductor sald zs he asked for the Womun'’s ticket. e “Oh, no, I was just sitting here read- ing and admiring the scenery.” “Oh,” the conductor sald, “I wonder if the bell doesn’t ring.” “The bell?” Then the Woman under- stood that that had been the buzzing she had heard. “I'm afraid I'm very ignorant,” she admitted. “I've never been in a com- partmenet before, and I didn’t know you rang to come jn.” But the conductor was not horrified at the smallness of her knowledge. “I'm glad to hear you admit fit, lady,” he sald. “There’s lots who have never beén in a compartment, but they wouldn’t admit it for worlds. We know when they’re not used to ‘em. Thev can’t fool us, but you're the first I've met who hasn't foolish pride.”=—Chl- cago Journdl. Success With Hogs 1. Good brood sows should al- ‘ways have a balanced ration, suf- ficlent exercise, and a good bed. 2. Farrowing ralls, no matter of what material they are made, wlill be worth their cost. 3. Many of the pigs are far- rowed between midnight and dawn, and it pays to be there. 4. A good dry bed, changed often, makes up for a lot of oth- er imperfections, Plan to have a supply of dry bedding bandy at all times. 5. Contrary to popular bellef, “hogs cannot thrive n fith. Avold manure piles, dusty etalls, and stagnant pools. Probably more trouble with pigs starts with suckling a sow that has been lying in a stagnant mud hole than from any other cause, unless it be dusty pens. 6. Plenty of clean water should be handy at all times, for the pig drinks often if he has the chance. 7. Plan to heve clover, alfalfs, rape, rye or soy beans at all times on the furm and cheapen the cost of production. ) All Want Ads Must Be Cash Because of the detail of collecting we can not undertake to open accounts for small amounts, therefore cash must ac- company ad—except for have open accounts with us. ] | i those who T__LOST or FOUND LOST—Two x 4 Tires and rims in town.
