An advertisement promises a unique water purchase deal in Dillon Montana. Buyers need only note payment due May 1 1911 with no cash upfront and receive alfalfa at 12 50 per ton in the stack delivered January 1 1911 to apply toward the note.
The piece argues alfalfa hay is a valuable horse feed if portions are controlled. It cites a 12 to 15 pound daily allowance for a 1000 pound horse with fair grain, warns against 30 to 60 pounds daily, and notes better results with alfalfa than other hays. It also covers feeding practices, regional ranch experience, and related agricultural notes and local theater listings.
Postmaster General Hitchcock approves renewing the Treasury Department contract for printing and manufacturing adhesive postage stamps for four years starting February 1, 1911. The decision favors the Bureau of Engraving and Printing despite a private bid about $17,000 yearly lower, citing cost savings of about $180,000 annually on a total expenditure of $625,000 and the bureau’s reliable quality and large reserves.
Announcements report the marriage of Edith Pauline Noyes to August P. Kunzleman in Harlam Montana on Thursday evening last week. The event marks a union between Miss Noyes and Mr Kunzleman with details limited to the ceremony location and date.
A 1910 letter to the Dillon postmistress announces city delivery starting August 16 with two carriers. Residents must provide mail receptacles or door slots, and patrons may choose to have mail addressed to street and number. The Postal Service stresses no service without receptacles and asks for progress updates by July.
