WATER RATES vs.. RAIL RATES

The Open River Transportation
company has prepared compare
tive statement of rates for wool ship
ments to the Boston market as be-
tween the all rail route and the rail
and water route by which the pro-
duct is handled when shipped
through the Open River company.
The schedule published provides
tor rail shipments to Portland where
the shipment is turned over to the
steamships for transportation to the
lsthmus and after being carried by
rail to the gulf is again loaded on
vessels for transportation to New
York. The delivery from New York
to Boston is made by rail. Points
located on the Snake and upper Co.
lumbia river where the advantages
OF the river transportation are en-
joyed, are given lower rate than
is quoted in the new tariff but even
providing for the rail rate into Port
land, the water route offers lower
freight rate for wool in bales from
points in south Idaho as far east as
Minidoka, all sections of eastern
Oregon and eastern Washington.
The rate from The Dalles for wool
in sacks, rail and water is $1.OS as
against $1.40 for all rail shipments.
The same per cent of reductions is
provided for practically all sections
of Idaho, Washington and Oregon
and suggest the advantages to be
enjoyed by these communities when
the Panama canal is completed and

replied it was s1.65.

L can get the same thing from

That's less than it cost me-"
the dealer said, but will sell il
to you on the same terms as the
mail order house just the same.''
All right,' said the customer,
you can send it along and charge
it to my account
Not on your life,' the dealer
replied. No charge accounts. You
can't do business with the mail Or
der house that way. Fork over the
CASH.
Now two cents for postage and
five cents for a money older.'
What"
Certainly; you have to send
letter and money order to mail
order house, you know
The customer, inwardly raving,
kept to his agreement and paid the
seven cents.
Now Is cents for expressage. 3"
We'll, I'll bel" he exclaim-
ed, but paid it, saying: "Now hand
me that saw and I'll take it home
and be rid of this foolishness. -
Hand it to you? Where do you
think you are? You're in Okla
homa and 1 am in Chicago, and
you'll have to wait two weeks for
your saw"
Whereupon the dealer hung the
saw upon peg and put the money
in the cash drawer. THAT makes
1857" he said. 1T has cost you
two cents more and then you have
to wait two weeks longer to get it
than if you had paid my price in
