"Tiie shipment of these atreet letter

lias been going on from the Omaha post
office constantly," said Assistant Poet
muter Woodard Tuesday. "Today's order
for shipment of boxes Is tlie heaviest we
have yet had. I think the time is com
ing when, the large central offices, such
a Omaha, will be mad division distribut
ing offices for every character of poatal
supplies. Under the present practice of
tha Postofflce department all postage
tamps, cards, envelopes, wrappers and

fices from Washington, direct, and It can
but happen that serious inconvenience
Irom unavoidable delays In -supplying the
unceasing demands of the 68,000 postofflces
of the United Bute from Washington
must accrue to the remote offices. This
trouble could: be avoided by establishing
groat Individual distributing offices. This
(natter, understand, waa taken up by a
Specially appointed commission last fall
Bind the proposition waa strongly favored.
H'ha same general convenience would ap
ply ln handling dead letters In the dis
trict In which they originate and thus
obviate many serious delaya to thought
less or careless writer who may have
misdirected their letters and placed no
return card on their anvelopea. This sklp
Jnent of street letter boxes we are about
to undertake ii in, itself a strong en
dorsement of the general, postofflce, dis
tributing imposition, and I believe that
It ta bound ta come."

money we certainly would have doubled
tha amount appropriated, and still be
lieved the money well spent. The experi
ments In horticulture and plant breeding
being made at the farm are little ahort
of marvelous. These experiments will be
ahown at Omaha and experts will be on

fited by the atate farm exhibit.
