NEW PARCELS POST DIMENSIONS
Length and Girth of Packages Will Al
low Fruit Crates to be Mailed

The U. 5. Government is always
doing something to aid the farmer and
now comes a new ruling increasing
size limit of parcel post as admit OF
sending berry crates. Orders by the
Postmaster. General have been issued
increasing the parcel post size and
providing for a receipt for articles
mailed by parcel post. The former
becomes effective INN ediately and
the latter on September 1st. Section
454 of the parcel post laws and reg
ulations is so amended as to increase
the size limit from y inches length
and girth combined to 81 inches in
length and girth combined. This
action follows widespread demand for
an increase in the size limit. The
principal effect is to bring the com
mercial crate within the regulations.
The 72-inch limit denied the advan-
tages of parcel post shipment to prac-
tically all the standard size crates
used in the commercial exchange of
berries and fruit. Section 45S 1-2 Of
the parcel post laws and regulations
is also amended On payment of one
cent the postmaster at the mailing
Office may give a receipt to the SEN
der Of an ordinary parcel of fourth
class mail. A postage stamp to
cover the charge for the receipt will
be affixed to the parcel and the name
and address shall be be written in
