REDUCED FREIGHT
CHARGES TO EAST
ON IDAHO WHEAT
Substantial Decrease Announced BY
Union Pacific TO Points South
and Southeast.

An announcement that interests
many growers and shippers In Idaho
is that substantial reductions In
freight rates have been made on
wheat and flour from all southern
idaho territory to points TO the south
and southeast.
THE reduced rates have been the
subject OF negotiations between the
Union Pacific and connecting lines
for some time" said joel L. Priest,
general agent OF. the Union Pacific
system. and by reason of our will
lingness to accept smaller percentage
OF division for our service TO eastern
junction points. we have been able TO
establish rates on lower basis than
might otherwise have been possible
Grain and flour men have expressed
themselves as being very much pleas
ed with the new schedule. The re-
duced rates Will apply 20 the points
where Idaho producers find their
principal southern and southeastern
markets"
In addition TO reductions 10
specific points. the new tariff carries
proportional rates TO Memphis on
wheat and flour destined 60 stations
beyond. Idaho has never heretofore
had these proportional rates. For
example. the rates direct TO Memphis
on wheat from this territory II today
is 74H cents. on January 9th the
new rate took effect. II cents. The
rate on flour to Memphis was TAN
cents. with 40, 900 pounds minimum
and is now II cents on cars OF $4,000
minimum and "a cents on cars OF 40
900 minimum. The proportional
rate to Memphis on wheat from Twin |
Falls will be 81 u cents and on flour
81 u cents. or a net reduction Of 7 /
cents on shipments destined beyond /
Memphis.
An examination Of the tariff shows /
on wheat from here to I
Ark. from % cents TO so
,ents. Many stations in Arkansa.
Tennessee, Louisiana,
Georgia and Alabama are favorabiy
affected by the new tariff, which
lpplies from points OF origin as far
'ast as Soda Springs, as far north as
L. Anthony and west OF Wieser
Idaho is continually finding a
WIDER market In the south and south
asst for its flour" said Mr. Priest
This is occasioned by the fact that
lour made from our irrigated wheat
makes a very superior quality Of hot
read. which Is a staple item OF diet
b the south. The demand establish
d some years ago has constantly in
reased and in the successful ter
OF their efforts TO bring
bout some reductions IN these rates.
nion Pacific traffic officers believe
nat consumption IN the southern and
markets will be mater
lily stimulated. The new tariff is
nioa Pacific issue No. 6036."
