aneous with our own. How the plan
to be inaugurated by u government
will worl- can be better told in the
light of experience, but it promises
good results.
A fruit dealer at San Diego, Cali
fornia, is going to give the govern
ment it's first chance to test the plan
on a large scale. AS soon us the law
goes into effect, me will ship, by par
GELS post mail, from San Diego to New
York, two car loads of prunes, packed
in e~ight-pound boxes. San Diego is
in the zone farthest from New York
and the shipment will involve the dis
lance test.
The transcontinental express con
panies already give symptoms of an
intention to cut the prune tariff be-
low the parcels post tariff, but if that
is done the benefit that comes to ship
pers and consumers can be credited
to the parcels post law.
1t is believed that this postal carry
ing innoI alton can be employed to the
pecuniary advantage of local mer-
chants serving a limited territory and
they will probably learn to employ it
for tho expansion of their trade from
the smaller zone centers of the u
try.
The local dealer is given a carrying
rate Of IA cents per 10 pounds on
local delivery, which includes the
rural routes originating at his post
office. A department store within a
distance of from 300 to 600 miles must
pay 81 cents for the same service and
a department store a thousand miles
away must pay 81 cents. The local
shipper can reach a distance of SO
miles outside his own delivery for 80
cents for 1O-pound package.
To the e~nterprising dealers in the
necessities and Injuries of life the
new law VIII open an opportunity for
business that has been partially clos
ed by extreme rates of transportation,
giving them advantages over mail or
der houses that may be taken ad-
vantage OF, and should be.
The package carrying law will tend
to increase and lengthen rural postal
routes and in time every central com
merical community will be able to
reach the farm dwellers within a "a
dius Of 80 miles, with scarcely any
exception-Huron State Spirit.

be beaten until smooth and glossy. If the
whites of the eggs are to be used, beat these
with a fiat or spoon whip until theyare stiff
enough to stand up, putting them in last.
A little salt added to the whites of eggs
helps in the beating. If yolks of eggs are
not used, add the moisture and -four
alternately to creamed butter and sugar
and add the whites last. Where much more
sugar than butter is used, as in Orange
Cake, half of the sugar may be beaten into
the yolks of the eggs.
