Live chickens, day-old-chickens," eggs
and other fragile objects as we'll as gen.
eral farm and garden products will be-
admitted to the parcels post along with
Aother merchandise when IL Is instituted
the first Of January.
The schedule is to be so arranged
that city jewellers may get fresh eggs
and butter, chickens and other farm pro-
duce direct from the farmer by mail.
This will be an important feature of,
the parcels post Eggs and chickens
and produce are carried by the posts of
European nations, and the same condi-
tons will apply here. Not only will the!
government carry these things, but an
indemnity win be provided for their loss
or damage in transit.
Poultry dealers have sent statistics
to the department showing how eggs
and chickens may be handled and car
ried. This is particularly true of the
"day-old chick" distributors who run
the biggest hatcheries in the country.
A big business in these day-old chick
ems has sprung up throughout the coun-
try.
Eggs are set in incubators having
capacity Of as many as 100.00 eggs.
The day the chicks are Matched they are
shipped. nj this condition they can go
four days in transit without food or
drink, and poultry dealers ship chicks
instead of eggs to the fanciers and
small raisers
The receipts Of country butter and
eggs by mail no doubt viii prove an
interesting novelty for housewives In.
addition they may send to gardeners
an order early in the week and get on
Saturday in return mail their supply
of vegetables and other table stun
Not only is provision being made for
the handling of these things. but it Is
expected c. o. d. system win be arr
ranged for the collection by carrier Of
the merchants cost as, well as the mail
charges, thereby furnishing a cash coll
lection agency for the farmers.
These provisions will. of course. work
in the opposite direction, and urban
business houses may do a mail order
business heretofore impossible.
The commission planning the parcels
post is in daily session at the postoffice
department, working out the changes
that will come about with the innovas
ting of this system.

SUNDAY DRINKS COST
HEAVY FINES IN MACON
Especial Dispatch to The J2urnal.>


MACON, Ca, Oct 15.-Thirty-five out
of sixty cases tried before the recorder
yesterday morning were DRINKS. The
new fine of $10.75 for Sunday DRINKS
imposed on about twenty of the num-
Der, netted the city over $500 in fines.
The police say that the extra number
of drunKs was due to the supply of
blind tiger whisky that has been re-
ceived by the saloon men in advance of
the State fair, which is being held here
this week and next.
An effort was made in vain by the re-
corder to learn where a number of the
offenders secured their bottle, but they
were too wise for the judge, and re-
fused to state. The police chief has
made special request of the recorder
to be effective next Monday, asking
that all offenders arrested drunk on
Sunday be fined not less than s15.75.
Judge DAILY has the request under con-
sideration and will probably decide in
favor of the chief by next Monday.
