Dr. Knapp’s Ten Agricultural Com- mandrr.ents—Money Sent to Europe by Foreigners. Washington, Jan. 27.—Postmaster General Geo. L. Von Meyer has a parcels post scheme, which if enact ed into law by Congress, will prove of great benefit to both the govern ment and the farmer. As it is a rural route system, and there are about one hundred ami fifty rural routes in the Fourth South Carolina Congres sional District, an outline of this par cels post plan will be of interest to your readers. In an interview on the plan, the postmaster general had the following to say; “If the parcels posts were established on the 38,000 rural routes throughout the country for the delivery of parcels originating on these routes ami for delivery with in their territory, and if each rural free delivery carrier carried but three packages of eleven pounds each on every trip, the entire postal deficit, which in 1907, was $0,653,282, would be wiped out. The rural parcels post will benefit the farmer enormously. It will not only lead to an increased consumption, but a consequent larger trade. It means a great saving to the farmer and gives the country store keeper an immense advantage over the mail order house, and it is of in calculable importance that the coun try merchant should exist and pros per. Not only will the rural parcels mean these, but th<f system can be put into opperation without the ex penditure of one single cent on the part of the Government. There are already some 38,000 rural routes in operation in the United States, reach ing probably 8,000,000 or 10,00i),000 people. Now. suppose we establish a special rate of 5 cents for the first pound and 2 cents forydach additional pound up to eleven/pounds, for the delivery of package's on these rural 'routes which originate along the line of the route, or at the distributing postofflee for the delivery of the car riers. This rate means that eleven pounds may be sent for 25 cents—or practically 2 cents a pound—to par ties along a rural route from other parties within the territory of the same route. The mail order house and the express company have vigor ously fought even the slightest sug gestion of a pafcels post, and both with Mlchiavelian astuteness. To all intents and purposes they have kept still—hut they have prejudiced the country storekeeper through false re ports of the intent of the system. The country merchant has conceived from them the idea that its operation means the ruin of his business. All of which is a direct inversion. If the parcels post was established on rural routes, the local merchants would be able to supply customers at an aver age cost of mailing of 2 cents a pound, or 25 cents for eleven pounds, while, the wholesale merchant or mall order houses, In order to reach the same customers by mail, would be compellel to pay 12 cents a pound, or $1.02 for eleven pounds. The enor mous advantage which this rate gives to the country storekeeper will be evident at a glance. The advantage to the consumer is immediately ap parent. Not only will both the dealer and consumer benefit, but another class of rural citizens will enjoy in creased advantages. This is the small country postmaster, of the fourth Class, whose salary would be Imme diately increased automatically by the larger number of packages pass ing through his hands.” Notwithstanding the Postmaster General’s arguments and his activi ties for the rural parcels post, It Is doubtful if such a bill passes the pres ent Congress. Rumor hag it that Speaker Cannon is opposed to It, and if this be true—then, good bye, par cels post. Wilkinsville, Jan. 28.—Mrs. be covered by tills work during this sou thers slope of Mt.
