Shipments of large quantities of
grain, coal, ore, sugar and other
heavy goods by parcel post over
short mall routes where the postage
has been less than regular drayage
would have been, is causing much
trouble in the postal service In Ne
braska, Wyoming and Colorado, ac
cording to C. M. Reed of Omaha, who
Is superintendent of the railway
mall service for that division.
As a result, new provisions ha-ve been
Inserted In the contracts for "star route"
eervlee in some Instances, he says, and
the postal authorities are scratching their
heads and trying to work out some sys
tem that will prevent abuse of the ser
vice by the mailing of goods that ought
to go by freights
"Parcel post rates within the first sone
in some mountainous and other regions
where travel Is difficult, are much lower
than the. actual cost of hauling," says
Superintendent Reed. "The result has
been that a few unscrupulous mall con
tractors, who are paid as high aa IZBO or
IS per 100 pounds for carrying mall on
their routes, have bought grain and simi
lar goods in the railroad town where their
route begin, and have mailed the stuff
to themselves at the other end of their
routes. -
"Such a scheme would cost them 11.08
postage on each 100 pounds, and they
wowld get paid 12.60 or S3 for handling
tho same amount. To meet tho situa
tion, the Postofflco department has lately
Inserted a provision In new contracts for
such routes, to tho effect that mail route
contractors will not be paid for the
transportation cf parcel post matter con
signed to themselves or Intended for
thoir own use." v
Experts Say Surplus
Siipply .of Wheat in J
U. S. is Nearly Gone
WASHINGTON, March 2t Warning
that the present heavy exports to u ro
pes n nations of American x wheat . and
flour cannot bo continued without en
dangering the wheat supplies for food and
seeding requirements at home, waa con
tained today in the Department of Agrl
ciilturo'a agricultural outlook. . In the
opinion of the department' experts, ex
portation at the same rate as during
Iecember, January and February . until
the coming of the new wheat crop would
encroach upon normal domestic needs.
Investigation has disclosed that there
was on March 1 an apparent surplus of
91.000,000 bushels of wheat over ths do
mestic requirements for food and seed
that was available for export In the four
months from March 1 to July 1. While
the exports of wheat. Including flour,
during these four months last year wero
36,000.000 bushels. It Is pointed out that
those exports during December, JaViuary
and February' last averaged almost 35,
000,000 bushels a month and if that rate
of export continued until tho new crop
la available it would amount to 140,000,00)
bushels.

When Glands Swell
Bleed Needs Attention
Even a Sweat Gland - May
Result in Severe
Consequence.
In our Intricate body the use of P. 8.
B. for the blood haa a most remarkable
influence. We little realise our gland
ular system. It may be a tiny bulb no
bigger than a pin point, and yet if a
disease germ gets Into it, there Is a
tremendous swelling. It becomes a
boll, a carbuncle, it may be a "blood
rising," and It. Is often a source of con
tinuous misery If not checked. Many
of the most excruciating forms of tor
ture begin with tho swelling of a tiny
gland, caused by a disease germ. And
it is 8. S. S. that spreads "throughout
tho blood circulation to prevent just
such conditions. Or if they have al
ready started, 8. 8. 8. will soon put the
blood In such a state of health as to
overcome the tendency to glandular
swellings. It is a, natural mefllclne for
tho blood. Just as essential to health If
the blood be impure, as are the meats,
fats, grains and sugars of our dally
food.
It contains one ingredient the active
purpose of which is to stimulate the
exchange of new flesh for dead or waste
matter.
