The weather forecast aent out by
thr weather bureau that a cold snap
was headed this way proved a true
one. and Saturday, Sunday and Mon­
day the thermometer took consider­
able o f a drop.

A number o f housewives In the

H. Hanks waa severely Injured
last Friday afternoon by being cut
with a wood saw he was operating
at the Farmers'
Cnion warehouse
HD right arm to the elbow was cut
open to the bone, and all o f the fin­
gers on hD right hand were nearly
severed.
The injured man was at­
tended by Dr. J. F. Hosch w ho took
over 50 stitches In the wounds. The
fingers were placed back on the
band, and at present writing the In­
dications are that the fingers
will
grow to the hand again. The wound
in the arm is giving Mr. Hanks the
most trouble at present.
Just how the accident happened is
hard to tell. The saw was running
at about half speed and Mr. Hanks,
who was at the saw table, started to
go around the machine to regulate
the speed, and It Is presumed he
stumbled and hla arm and hand
cam e In contact with the saw.

A Chicago dDpatch says:
That
the
parrel« post la more efficient
than the express companies Is prov­
ed beyond a doubt here today, fol­
lowing a test made by the Chicago
Tribune.
Thla paper sent 20 package« by
po*t and 20 by expr»»«« at the same
time, addressing them to various lo­
calities In the parcels post lones. In
every Instance the parrels post de­
livery reached Its destination first.
HufTalo reported the arrival In one
day of a package sent there by par­
cels post and Milwaukee a little over
eight hours.
Comparison was made o f rates,
speed o f delivery and the condition
o f the packages on receipt.
A parcel was mailed at the par­
cels post
window by a person un­
known to the officials and was deliv­
ered In Milwaukee eight hours lafer.
A package sent by express to the
same point was still unheard from
after 24 hours.
The parrels
post
charged
10 rents and the express
company 25 cents.

For the first time in the history of
the country a coffin was sent thru
the mails on January 3rd. from the
Zanesville. Ohio, postoffice. It weigh­
ed 14 pounds, and was sent by a c o f ­
fin manufacturing com pany to an un­
dertaker In Dexter City, Ohio. The
lid had to be sent in a separate pack­
age. so the body o f the coffin would
c om e within the 11 pound limit. The
total postage was 68 cents.

The suggestion
made by H. F.
Meyer,
manager o f the
Redm ond
Creamery. In a letter to The Spokes­
man published last week, that the
potato growers o f this section adver­
tise their potatoes in Portland, is a
good one.
Mr. Meyer said it would
be a good plan for the grow ers here
to send a five pound package o f po­
tatoes to housewives in a certain lo­
cality In Portland, and state that the
same kind o f potatoes could be had
at any time o f certain grocers.
In
this way the Redm ond and Powell
Rutte potatoes would gain a reputa­
tion they deserve, and the Portland
housewives would not buy potatoes
grown in any oth er section.
The people here and those outside
who have eaten potatoes from
this
section know they cannot be beaten
and seldom equaled.
The Spokesman suggests the pota­
to growers In this section take thla
matter up with Mr. Meyer In Port­
land, for he has agreed to assist
them to the utmost o f his ability In
getting a market for Redmond and
Powell Butte potatoes.
Mr. Meyer's address in Portland Is
287 Montgomery street.
