ASK BIDS FOR AIR MAIL

Air service contractors who desire
of the transcontinental air mail sys-
tenn between Elko, New, and Pasco,
Wash, must guarantee to cover the
distance between those two points in
an average time of four and quar-
ter hours at normal speed of 90
miles an hoHs, it was discovered
when the postoffice department.
released specifications for the eight
branch air mail routes to be estab-
lished, and a general invitation to
bidders, according to the Spokesman
Review.
The schedule for the Elko-Pasco
branch calls for departure f-om Elko
at HISS a. m. when the transcorti-
mental flyer westbound arrives and
arrival in Pasco at 4:35 p. m, with
halt at Boise at 1:55 pm. >.
After the mail reaches Pasco it will
go by train to Spokane and Coast
points for delivery the following
morning.
To connect with the eastbound
transcontinental mail, the plane must
leave Pasco at a. M, after receiv-
ing mail from Portland, Spokane and
Seattle, and will reach Ellso at 1:1o
p. m. dropping in at Boise en- route
at 1850 a. m.
It will be noted that the westward
trip is scheduled to consume 20 min
utes more than the eastward, but
neither flying schedIll can be fol-
lowed to the minute. Weather condi-
tons are expected to have important
effect on the flyers over this parti-
ular branch, and their speed on some
occasions will be slower than others
with go mills an hour as normal.
The slight difference between east
bound and westbound time is said to
be due to necessity of making con-
nection at Pasco with the transcon-
tinental ship on the eastbound trip.
| An additional specification is that
not more than six round trips per
week will be required over the Elko-
Pasco route, giving the flyers their
regular day of 'test.
No territorial restriction is placed
! on bidders for service between Elko
and Pasco, and any individual or cor
poration may bid on one or rno-e
routes, this opens the way for a
company such as it has been limited
may be organized by Henry Ford at
Detroit to take over operation of all
the branch routes on contract, if its
bids are the most advantageous re-
ceived by the postoffice department.

orators in 1924 on 15,103 farms sur
veyed by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. In addition to
this margin, these farms increased in
vcntc.'ies of crops, livestock, rnachin-
cry and supplies $751;, making an aver
age return of $l,z05 for the use OF
S17,26O of capital and the labor of the
farmer and his family. These farms
also produced food and fuel consumed
on the farm estimated to be worth
$266 on the average.
This is a somewhat better showing
than in 1923 when similar survey
on 1913 owner-operated farms aver
aged cash balance of $500, increased
inventory OF $130, and p.'oduced food
and fuel worth $265 on capital amount
ing to $17,49o.
The balance of $1,024 in 1924 was
all the cash the average of these farms
made available to the owner to pay
his living expenses, take care of debts
and make improvements. Interest
paid on debts during the year 1924
averaged $3.50 and the reported out
lay for Improvements averaged $133.

age totaled $1,012, sales of livestock
CT livestock products were $3.50, and
