To Editor Advertiser, Nnmana, Nebr.:
In the last issue of tbe Advertiser
saw a little item I wish to correct. As
far as I am concerned I wish to say for
myself tbat I am not in the least diss
satisfied with the change I made last
spring. Adams county, Nebr , is all
right. - We are going to have a big corn
crop this fall. It has been a little too
wet this summer for small grain but it
made a fairly good crop. As for Mr.
Russell being dissatisQod I cannot say
but rather think not. Although we
may sell out wo won't come back east.
Yours respectfully.

Congressman Pollard was in Auburn
last Friday listening to tho pleas of tbe
candidates for postmaster at the north
side. He finally decided that W. P.
Freeman was the choice of tne major
Ityofthe patrons, and as he is fully
qualified for the position bo decided to
recommend him for postmaster, and
there is now no doubt of his appoint
ment. Mr. Freeman has been a reals
dent of Auburn for 25 years. We have
no doubt but that he will serve the
people acceptably,
Later Mr. Freeraanhas been ap
pointed postmaster, and will take
possession Oct. 1. He has named his
wife as deoutv and sho is now in the
postofiice learning tho duties thereof

A few practical suggestions to
riendsand patrons of the rural routes:
1. You will be doing the carrier a
favor and tbe service a benefit by
Btamping your mall, thus avoiding un
necessary delay.
2. If you have no stamps, wrap the
exact amount In paper and pin the
same to your letter.
3. Before placing your mail box In
position consult your carrier, who will
gladly assist you in selecting the best
location.
4, Mail boxes ought to have five feet
of clear space from bottom of box to
the ground, excepting where they have
a top lid, in which case four and ones
half feot will do. All boxes having a
top lid should be set so that tho lid will
stay up when raised. Avoid having
nails or bolts on the inside of your mail
boxes. Face them towards tbe road,
and have them extend two-thirds over
the post. Boxes with top lids should
be attached to face of post.
5. When addressing an envelope do
not write the name above the middle of
the envelope. Under the name write
tho number of tho route to which ads
dressed, and follow the same with the
city and Btate. Names are often
blurred by placing them too near the
top of the letter, as It is in that part of
the envelope tbat the impression of the
postmark is placed.
0. Always place the stamp on the
upper right hand corner. Whenever
the route number is not known to the
sender, itwould be a great help to the
postal clerks and carrier to mention the
particular road on which the person
lives to whom the letter is addressed,
thus making tbe name of the road take
tbe place of streets.
7. Mail boxes are for tbe use of
mall matter only W. M. Smith,
