100000 acres being timbered and
100000 available for agriculture.
Much of the land covered by forests
is OF great richness, and in all parts
of the islands the adaptability for
producing all kinds of tropical fruits
and vegetables, together with many
of those usual to the temperate zone
is marked. Sugar, rice, coffee and
cocoa are produced in large guam
titles, owing to the wonderful fer
tility of the soil, in spite of the fact
that the most primitive methods of
agriculture are employed, and there
is no doubt of a great future devel-
opment along these lines. Abaco,

hemp is produced, grows in most of
the provinces, The homestead laws
permit a citizen of the Philippines
to acquire 394 acres of land, but
generous provisions are made for

sary to acquire title.

Grain Year Ends.

The cereal year of 10000 brought |
to an end Thursday, was remark
able for the shrinkage of the ship
ping business of the North Pacific
ports. This falling off in exports
was occassioned by the decrease in
the wheat yield Of Oregon, Wash
ington and Idaho as compared with
the few preceding years. The three
states produced last year 33, 584, $40
bushels of wheat against Al ,679, 435
bushels in 1902, and As, 1854 1898
bushels in 1901.
Shipments from Portland in the
past II months, including flour as
wheat, were 8, 400,965 bushels, COM
pared with 1909, 282 bushels in
the preceding year, and 16,674,295
bushels two years ago. Puget
Sound shipments show the same
ratio of decrease, having been H.
868, 148 bushels as against 18,O73,-
S18 bushels in 1902, and 18,825,007
bushels in 1901.
A portion larger than usual of
the wheat in the past season went
into flour, due in a large measure
to the heavy requirements of the
Orient just before the breaking out
of war between Japan and Russia.
Another feature of the season was
the demand from eastern markets
for northwestern wheat. Shipments
from this coast to Chicago and st.
Louis were made possible for a
short time by the speculative ex-
element in the middle west, caused
by the Armour corner, and 1855
957 bushels Of northwestern wheat
found their way across the Rockies
against only 100000 bushels so
shipped the year before. With the
short supply in this section, there
was still greater shortage, COM
paratively speaking, in California,
which necessitated the movement
of large quantity of wheat south
ward, and thus reduced the amount
available for oversee shipment.
Furthermore, the demand from the
Autipodes, that was so prominent
in 1902-03, was lacking. Conse-
quently the cargoes that were sent
abroad from this port in the year
just brought to close numbered
only 80 as against 80 in the proceed
ing year.
There is hardly question but
that the Pacific Northwest will this
fall harvest the greatest wheat crop
in its history. Fifty million bush
els is believed by leading men in
the grain trade to be a conservative
estimate. -Oregonian.

THE PULLHRU HERALD.

Rural Carrier Regulations.

been adopted by the department fol
the government of rural mail car.
riers. There is no doubt whatever
that these regulations will cause a
serious reduction in the revenues
derived by many carriers who have
been at liberty heretofore, to per.
form all sorts of services for pay.
The new rules will impose large
task on the authorities, for certain
carriers will probably try to evade
the regulations, and consequent in
spection by the federal authorities
will be necessary. Where the
temptation is great infractions are
expected to be common.
According to the new rules, the
express package privilege formerly
enjoyed by carriers is completely
wiped out, and through combina-
ton Of provisions of Sections 1 and
2 the privilege Of carrying merchan-
disc for hire cat the request of pat
rons" is reduced to minimum; for
it is prescribed that "no mailable
matter" namely, merchandise not
exceeding four pounds in weight
and not specifically excluded from
the mails by law (such as liquids,
glass, etc. may be. handled by
rural carriers while serving their
routes, unless the proper postage
has been prepaid"
This requirement will exclude
carriers from executing commissions
for the purchase, of articles weigh
ing less than four pounds, except
upon payment by the shipper of the
full rate of postage, which is Is
cents per pound. In doing errands
of this kind, carriers will be limited
to transmitting written orders by
letter or postal card, on which post
age must be paid by the sender,
and to the delivery of the merchan-
disc, which must be deposited in
the postoffice by the merchant from
whom the goods are bought.
The postoffice department takes
the position that the rural carriers
cannot be allowed to enter into
competition with the government
in the carrying of mailable matter
and the privilege of carrying mer-
chandise for hire is therefore limit
ed to nonmailable articles.
For the information of carriers,
merchants and their patrons, the
new regulations are here given in
full:
/. Under the law rural carriers
are not permitted to solicit business
or receive orders of any kind for
any person, firm or corporation,
and cannot, during the hours Of
their employment, carry any mer-
chandise for hire, except that they
may carry merchandise for hire for
and at the request of patrons resld-
ing on their respective routes, pro-
yided the same shall not interfere
with the proper discharge Of theil
official duty, and under such regu;;
lations as the postmaster genera
may prescribe.
2. No mailable matter may bt
handled by rural carriers while
serving their routes, unless thu
proper postage has been prepaid
with the single exception of county
newspapers, which, under the law
are permitted to be carried fre'
throughout the county in which
they are published, to actual sub
scribers, and such newspapers adj
dressed to subscribers resident Oh

carrier deliver same, are subject to
the rules regulating mail matter,
including the payment of postage
thereon.
D. Articles or packages that are
not mailable, which the patron de-
sires the rural carrier to carry must
be delivered to the carrier in person,
and in carrying merchandise for
hire, rural carriers are not permit
ed to leave their routes as officially
lad out or to accept anything that
will in any way delay the delivery
of the mail or in any way interfere
with the efficiency of the service.
6. Carriers, while on duty, are
not permitted to carry spirituous
liquors, either for themselves, for
sale, or for the accommodation of
their patrons.
Z. Rural carriers are required to
permit postoffice inspectors or other
duly accredited agents of the de-
partment to accompany them on
their regular trips over their routes.
They musr not carry other pass
engers nor permit any person other
than authorized postal officials to
ride with them or to have access to
the mails.
8. Rural carriers must not en-
gage in any business during their
prescribed hours of service, or con-
duct any after hours which offers
the temptation to solicit patronage
on their routes, or which, by reason
of their position in the government
service, gives them special advant-
age over competitors, such as book
canvassing, soliciting insurance,
selling sewing machines, or other
kindred occupations.
8. Carriers must not, either in
person or through letters, directly
or indirectly, by any method what
ever, solicit money, gifts or pres
ents, or issue for profit, souvenirs
or postal handbooks; nor cooperate
with or assist the publishers of
same to secure the patronage of the
public nor compile directories for
public use, or assist publishers to
compile them; nor furnish the
names and addresses of patrons of
their routes, for pay or favor, to any
business establishment, or any in
dividual, except to those depart
ment officials who, under the law,
are entitled to receive it.
1t will be noticed that the two
points which stand out prominent
ly in these rules are that the carriers
shall not compete with the federal
government in the the mail-carry
ing business, and that the carriers,
when doing legitimate errands.
shall act for the patrons and not
for merchants, commission houses
or other business organizations.
1t had been the original intention
of the department to require patrons
of routes to indicate the. establish
ments where they desired purchases
to be made, but the necessity of
this provision has been obviated by
the third section of the regulations,
which requires that "the hire tor
merchandise carried on the request
of the patron of rural free delivery
must be paid by the patron.
1t is specifically provided that
carriers will not be permitted to re-
ceive any compensation from the
, seller of such merchandise. In
short, the department wishes to
break up the practice of carriers in
acting as the representative of any
, particular firm at the expense of a

JAPANESE PATRIOTISM.

Societies and associations have been
organized III Japan to relieve the fami-
lies of the fighting men, and every one
makes certain contributions to the re-
lief fund. Some men contribute money
or goods, some their labor, and most of
the lint and bandage used for the wound
ed are the work of women, from the
Empress down to the peasant girl Lit
tie boys and girls willingly forego their
daily sweetmeats, and give the small
moneys thus saved to the relief socie-
ties. A boy eleven years old in coun-
try school made one day a contribution
of two yen. 1t was thought too much
for a country boys gift. The school
teacher and the alderman of the village
suspected the money might have been
given the lad by his parents to satisfy
his vanity; in which case it should be
admonished against. An inquiry was
accordingly made, and brought out the
fact that the boy had actually earned
the money for the purpose by devoting
his play hours to the making of straw
sandals. Even some criminals working
in prisons have made several applica-
tons to contribute their earnings to
the funds, though their wishes have not
been complied with. In every village a
compact has been made that those re-
naming at home should look after the
farms of those at the front, so that
their families may not be disappointed
of the usual crops. Since the outbreak
of the war the governments bonds
have been twice issued at home, and
each time the subscription more than
trebled the amount called for, the i'm
perial household taking the lead by sub
scribing twenty million yen. Thus the
hardships of the war are cheerfully
borne by every man, woman and child
in the land.-Nobushige Amenomori, in
the October Atlantic.
