This extension of the service was provided for by Congress in the appropriation act for the year beginning July 1, 1929. Expansion of the bureaus market news service includes extension of the leased wire system to Detroit; Cleveland; Nashville, Tenn.; Jackson, Miss,; New Orleans; Portland, Ore.; Seattle; Spokane; and Boise, Idaho. New offices will be opened in Detroit, Cleveland, and New Orleans, for the pur pose of collecting and disseminating market reports on fruits and vegetables. Leased wire connections at Nashville, Tenn., Jackson, Miss., and Boise, Idaho, will be for the purpose of distributing market reporta on fruits and vegetables, dairy and poul try products, grain, hay and feed, and livestock. Through cooperative arrangements with the state department of agriculture in these states, the material available on the leased wire system will be disseminated from those points by state agencies by the use of the press, mail, radio, and other feasible means. Extension of the leased wire service to the Pacific Northwest will make available to that important producing section comprehensive market reports on fruits and vegetables, dairy and poultry products, grain and hay, and livestock. A new office for reporting fruits and vegetables and dairy and poultry products will be opened at Beattie. The fruit and vegetable news service will be expanded at Spokane. The present bureau offices at Portland will be enlarged in order to expand materially the fruit and vegetable market news service and the livestock service, and to develop a comprehensive market reporting service on dairy and poultry products and on grain and hay. The bureau contemplates also that the grain and hay market newa service will be expanded by opening an office at San Antonio in order to .serve the Southwest, and expects to station a representative at San Francisco, It is also planned to begin the reporting of locally dressed meats in New York and San Francisco, the present service at these points being limited to reporting shipped-i- n meats. Some additional clerical help will be furnished to certain of (he middle western livestock reporting offices. Reports on eggs and poultry will also be inaug u rated; in. New York and Chicago. Completion of the market news extension plans will place in daily operation more than 10,000 miles of leased telegraph wires from coast to coast, into the Northwest, the South- With much diversity of opinion on minor points, there Is a general agreement In dividing the history of the church lato three great periods. The first, from the birth of Christ to the time of Constantine; the second, from that epoch to the llefonriHtlon: snn third, from the Reformation to lli present time. Energy in Ether Ether is sold to he vibrating west. Southeast and South. Headquarters of the system are at Washington, D. C., where a battery of operators are in constant communication with the 40 branch offices which have drops from the leased wire. At any time of day each branch office and Washington headquarters have a complete report on prices, shipments, and the market situation in practically all the leading consuming markets of the country. Each office during the day secures wide dissemination of the local market conditions and conditions in competing markets by means of radio, the press, telephone, and mail This system in conjunction with the bureaus foreign crop and market news service makes it possible for farmers to obtain practically instantaneous reports on the markets for all the principal agricultural commod- f f "True," said Mr. Warbler, "I wonder why that Is." "I am sure I dont know," snld Mr. Thrush. "Of course, when It is said that time flies It means that time hurries along. "For time doesnt really fly. It hasnt wings. It has clocks and band! on the clocks that keep time and go straight on all through the days and nights, with winding." There are clocks named after us,' said Mrs. Cuckoo. "Yes," said Mr. Cuckoo, proudly. "And they have a little bird which looks and speaks as we Drillers ! Shot firers Handling rock and material 8.50 Drivers make-believ- e ? do." "But clocks often don't go." snld Mrs. Thrush. "The time goes on Just the same,' said Mr. Thrush. It simply means that the clock has not yet been wound up, er that something Is the matter with It "I really conld never understand why they didnt say that time hurried along with Its hands. They always speak of It flying-ve- ry, very funny." "You spoke In the same way," suld Mrs. 'Thrush. "That shows what a habit It has become," said Mr. Thrush, "but still I think they should do less talking about time flying und more about birds flying. For we have wings uud we do fly."
