Growth of Rural Telephon s.— The call of 

 the telephone bell is no uncommon sound in 

 the farmhouse to-day. Men are callod for 

 special work, prices are learned, buying and 

 selling is done, orders go to the butcher and 

 the grocer and friendly gossip and chat are 

 among the many things that keep the busy 

 rural lines buzzing. The farmer or fruit- 

 grower with a telephone is no morp isolated 

 than his brother in the city — indeed, often 

 far less so — for the city man, as a rule, 

 does not know his next door neighbor. Be- 

 sides, the telephone is a real money-maker, 

 as it keeps the farmer so closely in touch 

 with market prices and conditions. The 

 initial cost is low, and the line when instal- 

 led belongs to the farmers, so that there is 

 only running expenses to pay. This, coupled 

 with the fact that the organization of .a 

 company and installing the line is made 

 easy bv the co-operation and expert advice 

 of the different large telephone supply- 

 houses, which is given free of cost, has been 

 a large factor in the increasing popularity 

 of rural telephones.
