Stock Market

Kansas City Stock Yards, Aug 49,
There was further spreading of values
between high grade and low grade cat
tie last week, and the upper crust be-
came thinner as the end of the week
approached. It was plain that the mar
ket was being undermined, and good
sized run of cattle today would have
finished it. Dealers expected break
of at least half dollar this week on
all but few prime cattle, but the run
proved small enough to save the situa-
tion, $4,000 head here, and light at all
the markets. Shippers evidently know
thing or two. Prices on all kinds are
steady to strong today, on both killing
Kinds, and on stockers and feeders
Prime steers brought $40 90 today, al
though there was no real toppy cattle
here. Kansas pasture cattle stopped
at $500, and ranged downward to $500.
Quarantine receipts today 125 cars, and
market steady on the good kinds, weak
on trash. Twenty thousand cattle were
bought for the country here last week,
the market holding firm all week ex-
cept for some clean up sales Friday.
More of these classes could have been
sold, and there are plenty of buyers
here today. Stockers range from 5000

The Raymer enterprise., 1912-12-26
BY EDWARD 9. CLARK,

With the coming OF the New Year
the United States government will en-.
ter into new field OF enterprise
the transmittal OF merchandise BY
what Is known as the parcel post
For years there has been demand
for such system Of inexpensive
transmittai Of packages. The camps
OF favor and disiayor of the parcel
post scheme have been about equally
divided. Finally at the last session
Of congress bill was passed which
VIII put the plan into operation, but
only II must be said In little more
than an 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 1t will be. how much II will cost
the government. and whether there is
TO be profit or loss at the end OF
each year. II It is found that the
plan Is successful from the point Of
view OF the people. which means the
government also. the parcel post will
bo extended until finally 1t reaches
the proportions which It's proponents
say they believe It Is destined to as.
sumo.
Zone System Explained.
Il Is no exaggcratIon to say that
thousands upon thousands OF inquIr.
les have been made OF the postmaster
general as to Just what the parcel
post will mean to the people 1t was
the law OF congress establishing the
system which made provision for a
division OF the country into zones
"nd into $4,000 units which are to be
sed as centers In describing the cir.
''les which mark the boundaries OF
the zones. There has been no clear
understanding. apparently. OF this
zone system, but really II Is a very
simple matter.
The accompanying map shows the
country divided into zones from the
unit In which Washington Is sit.
uated, as the center. Accompanying
the map Is a table showing the rate
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 30 every unit In the coun.
try no matter where II Is situated will
have zones drawn from It Just exactly
as Washington has them drawn from
It. For Instance. take Keokuk, Ia.
which Is In unit In the fifth zone.
From that will be drawn circles OK.
actly as they are drawn from Wash.
ington and they will be numbered from
keokuk as number one, Just as they
are numbered from Washington as
number one. or course, however,
Zone Six will havo a different geo.
graphical position as related to Keo.
kuk than II has as related TO Wash.
ington. but as the radius OF the circles
drawn from Keokuk is the same
length as the radius OF the circles
drawn from Washington. Keokuks
Zone Six will be just as far from It's
center as Washington's Zone Six Is.
How Rates Are Fixed.
II can be seen from this readily
enough that the postal rates from
Washington to It's particular zone will
be the same as the postal rates from
Keokuk to Its particular zones. Each
unit being about thirty miles square
will OF course contain In most cases a
number OF postofilces, but each Office
In the same unit Is considered as be.
Ing tts center OF the circles from
The Raymer enterprise., 1912-12-26

winch the zones are drawn. The
rates of postage are fixed from the
unit in which the sending postofilce is
situated. but the price 10 every place
in any zone Ia just the same TO IL.
lustrate, II will cost exactly the same
amount to send parcel from Wash.
ington to Erie. Pa, that It costs TO
| send 1t to Atlanta. Ga. 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 postotlce
Is located. but they are the same
from that Office to any point in any
one zone.
1t will be seen BY reference to the
table OF rates OF postage that II will
cost more per pound to send a pack.
age a long distance than II does to
send It short distance. The rate in.
creases for 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. 1t
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. II was the ex.
pressed desire OF the Legislators and
OF the postoffce 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,
age and the convenience OF trans.
initial and compare them with the
cost and convenience. under present
methods before individually man can
determine whether he Is to profit or
not by the change. Then there Is an,
other thing to be considered and
which only can be known definitely
when fuller regulations have been
made to specify exactly what kind OF
things can be sent by parcel post. It
can be said In general way that any,
thing can be sent which Is properly
wrapped and which will not in'urc
other mail matter with which II may
come In contact.
Copy Foreign Countries.
II Is probable that the government
will adopt means OF transportation
for certain kinds OF its merchandise
much like those which have been
adopted In parcel post countries
abroad What the English call ham.
pers, basketlike arrangements, prob
ably will be adopted, and as.thesc can
be kept separate from the ordinary
mail matter 1t is believed that the
regulations as finally adopted will al.

age may work at first against any
very extended use Of the parcel post
for some OF the articles which have
been named OF course, more weight
can be sent II It Is sent In different
parcels. but the cost In that case
would be heavier because the In.
crease per pound on single package
Is not great up to II pounds, and
probably It would increase at no great.
er rate II the government were to

fixed. To make II simpler, It will
cost more to send two packages OF II
pounds than II would to send one
