A NEW RURAL system

Special to Times Republ1can
Mason City, June 2S.-Postmaster
Farrell of Mason City, has been work
ing for some time on plan by which
he hopes to inaugurate d new system of
rural delivery, thereby providing every
patron of the postoffices of the county
a mail each day of the year. The plan
is TO divide the county into equal sec
tions, making as fair division as pos
sible for each town. and make the
boundary of the county the limit of the
mail delivery. The plan further pro
vides that instead of having mail
boxes at certain corners, a half or d
quarter of a mile from the patrons
house. the carrier will drive to each
door and leave the mail, which will
be another added convenience to SOM
farmers. Some of the routes will not
pay as much as others, but the salar
will vary from $500 TO $500 per year
the low salary given to the carrier of
perhaps ten mile route. Commune
cations have been sent to the post
masters at Rockwell. CleaS Lake
whom signify approval of the plan
and the remainder of the postmasters
will be asked to comply. The number
of routes now in the county are etgh-
teen and the new plan will probably
increase this to about twenty-eight or
thirty. The inspector is expectes
to arrive soon and will spend nearly a
month Of his time here arranging the
routes.
