1t does now for one package of II

Every postmaster In the United
States will have a parcel post map
like the one which Is here reproduced
except that the zone lines will be
shown with the unit OF his postolice
as center All that a postmast
wAl have to do when q parcel is rre.
sented for transportation is to find
out In what zone the destination of
the package lies. His table will show
him Instantly the rate per pound from
the unit in which his postoflce lies
to the zone OF the packages destlna-
tions. the price as has been explained
before, TO every postofTice In any one
zone being the same. The parcel post
will take nothing but fourth-class mat.
ter. Printed matter is stIll In the
thirdclass designation. Therefore
books cannot be sent by the parcel
post system. This the postoaice au-
thSrities seem to think Is In n way
unjust and may work hardship. Il
may be that in the future the law will
be changed 70 as to include all print
ed matter, II seems TO be certain that
an attempt will be made to bring
about this change as speedily as pos.
sible.
Must Bear Stamp.
Postmaster General Hitchcock has
ordered that postmasters be advised
that parcel post packages cannot be
accepted for mailing unless they bear
n distinctive parcel post stamp and
have attached to them the return card
OF the sender. A series OF distinctive
stamps is now In course Of prepara.
tlon for this class OF mail as required
by the law creating the parcel post
system. Consignments OF these
stamps will be- ready for shipment TO
all postofloes In ample time for the
establishment Of the new system on
New Years day.
The postoiloe department has given
instruction to every postmaster In the
country TO cnlightcn his patrons as
much as possible on the general sub.
icct OF tho parcel post and especially
on the use Of the special stamps and
! the necessary attachment OF tho re-
turn card. The law requires that all
fourth.elass matter mailed ,or Jan,

lustrate, It will cost exactly the same
amount to send n parcel from Wash
ington to Erie. Pa. that II costs to
send It to Atlanta. Ca, because Erie
and Atlanta with reference to Wash.
ington are situated in the fourth
zone. The rates therefore are fixed
from the unit in which the postofnce
is located. but they are the same
from that Office to any point In any
one zone
It will be seen by reference to tie

cost more per pound to send a pack

send II short distance. The rate in.
creases for n package weighing one
pound at the rate OF one cent for
each zone. No package weighing
more than II pounds can be sent un-
der the new parcel post law. II
should be said right here that on the
long hauls the parcel post may not
be able to compete with the express
companies. but that on shorter hauls
1t can so compete. Il was the ex-
pressed desire OF the Legislators and
OF the postofilce officials that the par
Gel post system should be made OF
particular use to persons having farm
and factory products TO transmit TO
customers. II is probable that pro-
ducers must study the rates OF post.

With the coming OF the New Year
the United States government will en-
ter into a new field OF enterprise
the transmittal OF merchandise by
what is known as the parcel post.
For years there has been a demand
for such a system Of inexpensive
transmittal OF packages. The camps
of favor and disiavor OF the parcel
post scheme have been about equally
divided. Finally at the last session
Of congress a bill was passed which
will put the plan into operation, but
only Il must be said in little moro
than m experimental way
II Is the intention OF Uncle Sam TO
move rather slowly in the parcel post
matter. He wants to find how popu-
lar It will be, how much II will cost
the government, and whether there is
TO be a profit or loss at the end of
each year. II II IS found that the
plan is successful from the point of
view OF the people, which means the
government also. the parcel post will
be extended until finally II reaches
the proportions which It's proponents
say they believe II is destined to as.
sumo.
Zone System Explained.
II Is no e1aggeration to say that
thousands upon thousands OF inquir.
ies have been made OF the postmaster
general as to Just what the parcel
post will mean to the people. It was
the law q congress establishing the
system which made provision for a
division OF the country into zones
and into $4,000 units which are to be
sed as centers In describing the cir
tiles which mark the boundaries OF
the zones. There has been no clear
understanding. apparently, OF this
zone system. but really Il is very
simple matter.
The accompanying map shows tho
country divided into zones from the
unit In which Washington is sit.
uated. as the center. Accompanying
the map is table showing tho ratio
OF postage per pound for parcels from
Washington TO places within all the
zones.
Each unit contains an area thirty
miles square Now each unit is n
center from which the zones are
drawn and so every unit In the coun.
try no matter where Il Ia situated will
have zones drawn from Il Just exactly
as Washington has thom drawn from
it For Instance. take Kcokuk. Ia..
which ia In n unit In tho NTH zone.
From that viii bo drawn circles oN.

ington and they will be numbered from
Keokuk as number one. Just as they
are numbered from Washington nH

Zone Six will have n different geo.
graphical position Rs related to Kco-
kuk than Il has aH related TO Wash.
fngton. but as tho radius OF tho circles
drawn from Kookuk Il tho same
length na the radius OF tho oiroloa
drawn from Washington. Kookuk'a
Zono Six will bo just hs far from its
center as WaahinRton'a Zono Six ia.
How Rates Arc Fixed.
II can bo seen from this readily
enough that tho postal ratoh from
Washington 10 In particular Sono win
bo the Same ~ the postal rates from
Kookuk 90 In particular zonoa. Each
unit being about thirty mlloa square
will OF course contain In most oaaoa a

6. s. cRYNE TALKS FAIR
FOR STARK co. Farmers

Editor Press:-
As a matter of general interest to the |
farming community of Stark county. I
would suggest that they get together in
some way OH a county fair. It need not
be a large affair but there should be
some interest shown in the matter of
seeing what is raised in the county by
others. We should get together for at
least two days and exchange thoughts
and views and show the products of the
soil that we have labored to gather for
Jul use and for sale.
We should get to be more up to date
in the affairs of General interest. 1t
would be for the good of the children
that do not have many opportunities of
seeing the world outside of the little
neighborhood where they were born and
the little school house where they 60 to
school.
If we could arrange this matter so
that an interest could be aroused there
would soon come to be a feeling that
there was something more than the COM
lnercialism of the matter there was an
education that our children were being
profited. and given q chance to know
the views of the men who are so active
on the experiment and demonstration
farms that belong to the state and
which We maintain for the purpose of
giving this information freely and glad
Iy that will do so much to .enlighten
our young folks as to methods and many
things in the line of cultivation. n.y.
b%ridization selection for this and that
purpose in short, an intelligent knowl-
edge as to the why and he wherefore of
the plant life that is ours to foster. or
to only make a very doubtful cultiva-
tion of.
Many other counties of the state
maintain fairs in the autumn and these
gatherings are most enjoyable and
profitable, more especially to the young
er part of the community.
l have come in touch with people
from other counties that one and all say
that they cannot afford, now that they
have these fairs established, to let the
interest in them die out and they are
| agreed after onc they are established
and got into working order that they
are the most valuable days in the whole
year when the bon home and good cheer
of the harvest home days are enjoyed
after the hard work of the long summer
has given. the reward which is here
gathered to meet in the utmost friendly
competition for premiums which thought
of no great intrinsic value. mark q per-
iod in the advance from an inert and
sort of timidity and languid interest in
life, to one that holds a great interest
and one that can be made to grow and
thrive and be of valuable aid in the life
work of the populace that should be the
happiest of all.-The farmer and his
family.
Respectfully yours.
