THE RURAL DELIVERY.
Inspector Howard Reviews the Only System
of the Kind In the State of Washington.

Inspector Howard Reviews the Only System
Of the Kind In the State of Washington.
Special Agent Thomas Howard, of st.
Paul, is spending the week in this city
inspecting the rural free delivery routes.
Mr.. Howard in conversation with HER
AID reporter paid the Yakima country
many pretty compliments and also stat
ed that 1t was his belief that there were
few more favorable places for the sue
cessful carrying on of rural free de-
livery system than at this point, and that
the system was great factor in the de.
velopment of a country. Asked to name
some OF the special advantages to be
gained through the system, Mr.. Howard
said:
"First, it is factor in making those
who are engaged in agricultural pursuits
more content with their voca ton, be-
cause it brings them in touch with the
outer world by delivering at their doors
every dav through the newspapers the
news of the world, the market quota
tlons, and keeping them in touch with
the cities without the loss of time. An.
other thing, the rural delivery is a great
agency in the construction of better
roads. We make it a point to give the
service only where the farmers them
selves have sufficient interest to give at
tention to keeping in good condition the
roads along the route, which of course
facilitates the prompt delivery of mail
and obviates loss of valuable time.
"Your country here is admirably
adapted to the rural delivery system, but
believe your people in general do not
appreciate the advantages which accrue
from having such a system. Many refuse
or neglect to put up proper receptaces
Tor their mail. believing an old tin can
good enough, when 75c at the very out
side would provide them with neat
box that would last a lifetime. In Min
nesota we established four routes at the
time your route here was instituted and
the people grasped the advantages so
readily that they now have thirty or
more.
Il am disappointed in many things
here, and had it not been for the per.
suasive eloquence OF your postmaster,
am afraid should have discontinued the
two routes now established. But have
since been over the routes and talked
with the farmers, and find that where
some matters pertaining to the system
are explained they are readily interested.
1t is the purpose OF the department to
furnish large mail boxes to he placed at

some dignity to the system.
"We expect shortly to establish a third
route here, which will take in the district
between the city and the Selah gap. the
lower Selah valley and the lower Natchez
valley, returning by way of the Natchez
gap.

are derelict in their duties"
