Every town is situated in a numbered unit, shown upon the map. The first zone is any distance within fifty miles. The second zone is a greater distance, and so ou until the last zone, which takes in Alaska and the Hawaiian Is lands, but not the Philippines.

Dated at Newpchis 11th day of December 1912. i V. H. JOSTA'X, G u a rd i a l iV i 1 1 i : . m V he 1 1 e y , lion compos (Brownington, Vt,- V of lice, K. V. ( )rleans, D.) bered units printed ou it shows that New Yoi;k city is in unit 717, which, of course, is in the first zone. Each lo cality makes its own first zone, so it was necessary for the postoffice de partment to have printed separate maps for each locality. Suppose you are in unit 717 in tl;e first zone and you want to send a package to Buffalo, which is approximately in unit l.lo'2. which is in the second zone. You take the package to the postoffice, and the postoffice cferk will place it on the newly constructed scales, first desig nating on the scales that the package is to go to the second zone. When it is weighed the scale will give exactly the amount uecessary to carry the package to its destination. The first zone of fifty miles includes what is called the local zone. The maximum charge for the local zone is 5 cents for the first pound and 1 cent for each additional pound. After that there is a graduated in crease, "the second zone having a ra dius of 150 miles, the? third 300 miles, etc.. until the eighth zone, which in cludes every town over 1,800 miles. Separate provision is made for all packages that weigh four ounces or less. Like the present system of fourth class matter, there will be a flat rate of a cent an ounce. If a package weighs over four ounces it goes under the pound rate. Every postmaster and postoffice clerk handling parcel post has a map and a guidebook which holds the key to the numnereti units on tne map. it you want to send a package to Buffalo his guidebook will show him which unit Buffalo is in. and then the map will Jesignate the zone. All he has to do is to mark his scale with the zone in dicator and the machine will show the amount of postage. The postoffice department has issued a guide book and map that can be pur chased for 75 cents. There is also an insurance against loss of all packages not over $r0. Among the things that will not be ac cepted for delivery are intoxicants, ex plosives, inflammable liquids, live or dead animals, firearms, disease germs, books or printed matter. A special series of stamps has been engraved for the service. The greatest advantage of the par cel post is to the farmer who wants to sell his prodiu ts direct to the consum er. A postal card for a dozen or more fresh eggs can be sent on one day and the eggs received the next. All kii; Is of produce will be acceptable. E--gs can be packed separately in cotton ;. . d placed in corrugated pasteboard boxes so they can be shipped with entire safe- STATE NEWS. CONTINUED PROM PAGE TWO Burke was locked up in the village jail. He was placed in a cell in the rear of the structure but in a few hours the officer returned to find the man in the main room and still the cell door was firmly locked. Burke's method of escape nearly cost him his life. The second cell contained a small hole in the floor not more than 10 inches across and through this open ing Burke managed to squeeze. He removed all his clothes and worked his way to the cellar, the edges of the boards taking away a good share of the skin on his left side and besides he sustained flesh wounds. Burke had good luck until he attempted to get his shoulders through and it is claimed by the officers that he hung suspended un til he was almost exhausted before he was able to reach the cellar. Here he obtained an axe with which he chopped his way out through the roof of the jail. local parties in the county, over and above that received from taxation and Governmental sources."

The state committee of the progres sive party in Vermont held a meeting in the parlors of the Hotel Vermont, Burlingtjn, Friday afternoon with a representative from every county in the state except Orleans and Essex. C. H. Thompson of Brattleboro, na tional committeeman, was present, and the subjects of a progressive news paper, finance, and other matters were discussed. One of the first pieces of business transacted by the meeting was the addition of two women to the list of the state committee. They are ivirs. uuy s. norton oi uurnngton and Mrs. Robert French of St. Johns bury. Following that an executive committee, consisting of C. H. Thomp son, M. L. Aseltine and E. L. Kelley, was elected. The meeting expressed itself in favor of the financial appor tionment plan formulated by the na tional commit ee providn? the other states adopt it. The plan calls for $1,000 to be raised for the support of the progressive party in Vermont. A series of meetings was also arranged for, and speakers of reputation will be called into the state for the purpose of holding county rallies. No action was taken in regard to the establish ment of a progressive paper. M. C. Reynolds stated that he was willing to support the party with his series of papers and came forth with a tentative scheme to devote one page an issue to the interest and news of the party. If such a plan were adopted the price for a yearly subscription would be one dollar. Most of those present were apparently in favor of the plan, but no action was taken. Have Sent Bennington County $1000. Secretary Taylor of Burlington of the Greater Vermont association has received a letter from Secretary Ball of the Crop Improvement Committee of the Council of Grange Exchanges, Chicago, 111., in which he says the Council of Grain Exchanges will give any county in Vermont one- thousand dollars when it has done the following things: "Organized a county farm bureau with a bona fide membership, said ! membership to be open to anyone in ! the county desiring to join upon pay ment of the dues, which should be nominal. This bureau may be formed under the auspices of the already ex isting organization if it is in a satis factory condition and ready to do the work required and has an open mem bership. This, however, is a matter for the exercise of the good business judgment of the local parties."

TYPICAL DIAGRAM INDICATING PAECEL POST ZONES FE0M CHICAGO AND SHOWING HOW TO COMPUTE POSTAGE ON PACKAGES. - This map. made with Chicago as a base, shows how the zone system will be used in arranging rates for the parcel post service which will be inaugurated Jan. 1. Establishing zones by drawing circles of different diameters, with each postoffice as a center, would mean an impracticable amount of figuring. Instead of using townships and counties as units or starting points it was decided to divide the whole country into blocks or units, each block oeing half a degree in latitude in north-south extension and half a degree of longi tude east and west. There are 3,500 of these units in the country. An example of how to get the first zone is as follows: Find the center of the unit in which your postoffice is located. Draw a circle of fifty miles radius around that center. Every unit which lies wholly within that circle or more than half of which is within that circle Is included in the first zone from any postoffice, and the postage rate is 5 cents for the first pound and 3 cents for each additional pound. The second zone is determined by drawing with the same center a circle of 150 miles radius. Every unit which lies within it, but outside of the first zone.1 is in the second zone, and the rate is G cents for the first pound and 4 cents for each addition al pound.' , The method by which the second zone is determined is used for all other zones, their radii and rate of postage for the first and additional pounds respectively being as follows: Third zone. 300 miles. 7 cents. 5 cents; fourth zone. 600 miles. 8 cents, 6 cents: fifth zone, 1,000 miles. 9 cents. 7 cents; sixth zone. 1,400 miles. 10 cents. 9 cents: seventh zone, 1.800 miles. 11 cents, 10 cents; eighth zone and all territory farther away, including the Philippines and island possessions. 12 cents flat. For the purpose of carrying this law into effect the United States is divided into zones, with different rates of postage applicable tc each, as follows: . , otome oeiore i j WEBSTER, Treasurer.
