The fact that a good ear can still hear a of coin in pockets across the land supports the belief that the end isnt yet. All that is happening now is that the farmer is giving the nation a breather, apparently. It is wonderful to have retail food prices come down ask the food growers. Probably the farmers Good Samaritan role of taking a loss on livestock and grain so that purchasers everywhere can buy for less will become so popular other groups will soon be' trying to get into the act. Union labor will want to take a cut in wages so manufactured products can be sold cheaper. Professional men will want to reduce their fees, businessmen will rush in to narrow their edge of profit to bring prices still lower. And it might even be that government will cut overhead and taxes to lend its strength to universal savings, who knows? Now that the farmer has inadvertently shown the way, he, beiijg of a generous nature, does not want to hog all the honor and I read in the paper how happy the glory. housewives of the nation are at prospect of lower retail prices on food, a local farmer and naturally, this commented today, makes me feel glad all over to think that by simply losing a thousand or two I have made he added, this possible.

In missed a few places. apparently face of the astronomical public debt and cur- By The United States Envelope company, one of the worlds largest envelope and mailing piece manufacturers, has recently distributed a portfolio explaining how to make best use of the new low-ratairmail service. It states that many persons are putting airmail stamps on their letters when the rail service would have been better. For communities, such as Brigham City, who do not have local air facilities, such towns must depend on neighboring cities for the transfer of mail from rail to airplane. In the case of Brigham City, Ogden and Salt Lake offer the nearest airmail transfer points. Rail Service Often Better The portfolio goes on to say that oftentimes a delay is caused by sending letters airmail to a destination which also does not have an adequate air terminal. Such a case could be locally described by sending an airmail letter from Brigham ,City to Twin Falls, Idaho, neither of which has direct air mail service. The letter would first go to Ogden or Salt Lake by rail where it would be transferred to airplane. Should it arrive in Ogden too late to make connections, it would have to wait until the next plane, sometimes many, many hours. The letter would be flown to Goodit ing, Idaho, where again would be transferred either to rail or bus. Missing connections could occur at this point, also. If the same letter had been sent by rail, it would go from Brigham City to Pocatello, imme.where it would make diate transfer by rail to Twin Falls. In all probability, the latter method would be the quicker. Printers and persons frequently using air mail service should find out from their local post office just how airmail is handled in their community and in which directions rail service is better than airmail. the portfolio states. It goes on further to say, "a general rule is that if there is good fail service in all directions, e , Air Mail Service" Is Envelope Manufacturer To Speak At surface mail will be delivered the next day. Airmail should be used beyong 200 miles in this case. Local Rule Another general rule given in the portfolio, which is typical of Brigham City, is if there is and north good rail service next south up to 200 miles; day delivery on east and west surface mail confined to limit, then beyond 200 miles north and south, 50 miles east and west, airmail should .be used. Airmail should not be used when the letter's destination is only a few miles, even though both towns may have good air service. As an example in this case, sending a letter from Ogden to Salt Lake City would be folly as rail service between the two towns is frequent and nearly as fast. Service Good Brigham City patrons of airmail service should be mindful that in sending mail to southern Idaho, rail service is best in most instances; the same is true in southern Utah. Beyond 200 miles north and south, air mail service is good, and beyond 50 to 100 miles east and west, air mail service is oftimes faster than rail. The United States Envelope companys portfolio also states that the use of regular printed air mail envelopes (with the red and blue stripe along the edges) oftimes speeds up service since it is easier for pos-ta- l workers to spot when they are sorting mail.

Co-o- answer: Emile Berliner. Thomas A. Edison did manufacture disk-typrecords, but it was not until Berliner, together with Eldridge R. Johnson, had perfected the disk and formed a company they called the Victor Talking Machine Co. From that beginning came the modern records and radios. Chief difference between Berliners record and Edisons disk was that Berliner cut his disk laterally as is still done; Edison, who recorded on his cylinders by a method, stuck by his original idea in the manufacture of disks; hence the Edison disks e Utah Coop Meet p annual meeting s the illness and death of our Nielmother, Mrs, Anna Marie floral beautiful the for sen. and oflerings.
