PARCEL POST GROWTH
Package Sent BY Parcel Pos In
United States Number 50,o0o,-
o0o a Month.

Parcel post has doubled the total
volume of business done by the
eendin of packages. That means
that the ordinary citizen and the
merchant are sending out twice as
much produce and ware. says writ.
er in Golfers Weekly. Parcel post
handles products up to eleven pounds
in weight
Last year the express companies
took care of 1OO,oO0,O0O parcels under
the eleven pound weight That was
when they had their final year OF
grace, their last clear field In the
same year of 1912 the postoffiee hand

such as books, four pounds and under
in weight, which it has always car
ried That made a total of 100000 600
parcels sent last year. At the end Of
the first half year of parcel post 300,-
100000 parcels nave been sent by this
new method. They are going at the
rate of 50,000,000 month. Better
facilities create new business, and it
is estimated by the Postoflice De
partment that 2O.000000 pounds viii
be reached by parcel post who were
never reached before by a collection
and delivery system.
In January nearly 100000 par

ly 6O,OoO,OOO. The year 1913 will see
nearly 7O0,O0OOOO.
These figures are necessarily esti-
mates. They are based on the total
number af parcel post packages hand
led at the fifty largest offices in the
United States during the first few
months OF 1913. The estimate is on
the basis that the fifty largest post
offices equal fifty per cent Of the
postal business OF the United States.
Chicago receives and sends a total
Of more parcels than any other city.
That is in part because Of the large
mail order houses there. For the
first four months of this year Chi
cago handled a total of six and a third
million parcels. That is $4,000 more
than New York handled New York
received 100000 more parcels than
Chicago Where Chicago won out

spatehed. That Of course, included
tile huge sendngs of the mail order
houses. The total Of the four months
for Chicago OF packages sent out was
more than 100000.
1t was not until August "a, 1912,

SEES NO DANGER SIGNALS.
But James J. Hill Advises Cau-
tion and Conservatism.

James j. Hill. who arrived here yester-
day on one OF his regular visits, did not
agree with the predominating Wall Street
view Of current conditions. The man who
is called the empire builder OF the
Northwest, declared that he saw no
danger signals along the business highway
in his part Of the country. Mr.. Hill ad-
vocated conservatism and caution, how
ever. in dealing With the great questions
that are before the country. such as the
tariff and currency legislation
Money conditions In the Northwest
are comfortable" said Nj. Hill. but In
terest rates are high. Just as they are
here. There is every assurance Of good
crop and conditions are improving right
along. The hot weather Of the last week
may do some damage to corn. but never
theless we shall have a good crop. l do
not expect the yield Of grain to he as
large as last year, but in some sections
the crop will be better
\ scarcity Of farm labor during the
harvesting season is predicted by Mr..
Hill, but he believes that this difficulty
will be partly overcome because the farm
ers have diversified their crops. For
the first time the Minnesota farmers
have gone extensively into corn raising
where heretofore their attention has been
given principally to wheat.
In the first three weeks Of July gross
earnings Of the Great Northern Railroad
OF which Mr. Hll was formerly presl-
dent. and then chairman OF the board OF
directors. were $4,000 better than last
year. and the whole month should sho"
an increase Of at least 100000. he said.
The comparisons become all the more
noteworthy on the statement that in July
1912. Great Northern did the largest gross
business I'm its history.
Mr. Hill lodged al inquiries concerning
the probable successor TO Howard Elliott
as president of the Northern Pacific.
Who do you think will be the new
PRESIDENT" was asked.
