First Time in History, According
to Report of Cabinet
Officer.
RAISE IN RATES IS FAVORED
President Concurs In Recommenda
tion of Commission on Second
Class Mall Matter Again Sug
Bsst3 Adoption of Parcel
Post System.
Washington, Fob. 2:!. For tho flrht
Unit- In tho history of tho postal serv
ice that department of tho government
allowed n profit for tho (Ihpui vi.r
ending Juno ::o, 1911. according to the
annual report of Postmaster General
Hitchcock transmitted to congress to
day. Accompanying tho document
was the report or the commission on
aecond-claBs mall matter appointed by
Joint resolution of congress on Mnrch
4 of last yeur nnd n brief message of
tho president, in which he called at
tention to the principal features of tho
two reports.
Would Increase Second-Class Rates.
Tho report of tho commission on
aecontl-clnss mnll matter makes tho
following recommendations:
1. Tho rnto of 1! cents a pound on
copies mailed by publiBhcrs to sub
scribers, to news agents, and as sam
ple copies, and by news agents to their
subscribers or to other news agcnt3.
2. Tho rato of 1 cent for each 4
ounces for copies mniled by other
than publishers and news agonts; that
Ifl, tho present transient rate.
3. Tho present frce-in-county priv
ilege retained, but not extended.
The commission also recommended
that tho cent-a-copy rate for newspa
pers oincr man weeklies and for pe
riodicals not exceeding 2 ounces In
weight, and tho 2-cent-a-copy rato for
periodicals exceeding 2 ounces in
weight, when mnlled at a city letter
carrier office for local delivery, be
abolished.
As to tho effect and adequacy of tho
proposed increase of 1 cent a pound
In postage the commission says:
"Such an Increase will not, In the
opinion of the commission, bring dis
tress upon the publishers of nowepa
pers nnd periodicals, or seriously In
terfere with tho dissemination of use
ful news or information. A reasonable
time should bo allowed, after the rate
Is fixed, beforo It Is put Into effect.
Whllo the new rate will bo very far
from compensating tho government
Tor tho carrlngo and hnndllng of second-class
matter, It will "to somo ex
tent relievo the existing burden and
result in n more equitable adjustment
of rates."
Both the president and the postmas
ter general concur In tho recommenda
tions nnd regarding tho proposed In
crease In newspaper postngo tho presi
dent says: "Tho proposed increase of
I rent a pound in tho second-class
postage rate, I believe, to bo most
reasonable, nnd If sufficient tlmo Is al
lowed before tho chango goes into ef
fect it should work little serious In-
Jury to tho business of tho periodical
publishers, whllo equalizing, nt lenst
In a measure, the burdens of postal
taxation."
Rates Should Be More Equal.
Commenting further on tho pro
posed increase, the president says:
"Tho postal service Is now, for tho
first time In years, operated upon a
self-sustaining basis, and In my Judg
ment this is n wlso policy; but It
should not be carried out at the ex
pen so of ccrtnin classes of mall mat
ter that pay revenue lnrgely In ex
cess of their cost. It is not Just that
eomo classes of mail should bo ex
orbitantly taxed to meet a deficiency
caused by other classes, tho revenue
from which Is much below their cost
of hnndllng and carriage. Where such
Inequalities exist they should bo re
moved ns early as practicable. Tho
business enterprises of tho publishers
of periodicals, however, have been
built up on tho basis of tho present
second-class rate, nnd thereforo It
would bo manifestly unfnir to put into
Immediate effect n largo Increase In
postage. That newspapers and mnga
r.lnes havo been potent agencies for
tho dissemination of public Intelli
gence nnd havo consequently borne n
worthy part in tho development of tho
country all must ndmlt; but it is like
wise truo that tho original purposo of
congress In providing for them a sub
vention by way of nominal postal
charges In consideration of their
value as mediums of public Informa
tion ought not to prevent an incroaso,
because they nro now not only educa
tional but highly prolltablo. There Is
no warrant for tho great dlspnrlty be
tween existing postngo rntes on pe
riodicals nnd the cost of tho servlco
tho government performs for them.
The aggregate postal revenues for tho
fiscal year 1911 were $237,879,823.00,
derived mainly from tho postngo ,col
lected on tho four classes of mall
matter. It Is carefully estimated by
tho postodlco department that the
revenuo dorlvcd from mnll matter of
tho first class Is approxlmntoly ono
and one-half times tho rost of han
dling and cnrrlnge; that tho returns
from third ami fourth class matter nro
slightly in excess of their cost of
handling nnd enrringo; nnd thnt whllo
second-class matter embraces over C5
per cent, of tho entlro wolght of nil
tho mall carried, it, neverthelesss,
yields little moro than 6 per cent, of
tho postal revenues."
The commission' on second-class
mail mnttcr consisted of Hon. Charles
K. Hughes, associate justlco of tho
Supremo Court of tho United States;'
President A. Lnwrenco Lowell of Har
vard University, nnd Air. Hnrry A.
Wheeler, president of tho Association
of Commerce of the city of Chicago.
In commenting on their iludiiigs tho
president says:
"The report discloses a most c
haustivo nnd critical Inquiry into tho
subject of second-class mall mnttor
after adequate notlco to all the par
ties In Interest, Intensive hearings
woro hold by the commission, at which
Iho Postmaster General and the Sec
ond and Third Assistant Postmasters
General appeared nnd submitted for
mnl iitatonients presenting the arlous
contentions of tho Post Olllco depart
ment, together with all the relevant
ofllcltil data and evidence relating to
tho cost of handling and transporting
second-clasB mall matter. Certain of
tho leading magazines wero represent
ed by counsel, whllo various other pub
lications appealed by representatives.
"The findings of tho commission
confirm the view that tho cost of
hnndllng nnd transporting second
class mall mnttor Is greatly In excess
or the postngo paid, nnd thnt an in
crenso In tho rate Is not only Justified
by tho fnets, but Is desirable."
Cost Inquired Into.
"The commission reports that the
evldenco submitted for Its considera
tion Is sufficient to wnrrant a finding
of the approximate cost of handling
nnd transporting tho several classes
of second-class mall known ns paid-at-thc-pound-rate,
frec-In-county, nnd
transient matter, in so far as relates
to tho services of transportation, 03t
office cars, railway distribution, rural
delivery, and certain other Items of
cost, but thnt. It Is without ndoquato
data to detcrmlno tho cost of tho gen
eral post-ofllco servlco and also what
portion of tho cost of certain other
aggregate services Is properly assign
able to second-class mall matter. It
finds that in tho fiscal year 1908. tho
period for which the statistics for tho
Post Offlco Department wero com
piled, the cost of handling nnd trans
porting second-class mall, In tho Items
of transportation, post-ofllco cars, rail
way distribution, rural delivery, nnd
certain miscellaneous charges, was ap
proximately C cents a pound for paid-at-the-pound-rnte
matter, and for frec-In-county
nnd transient matter ench
approximately 5 cents a pound, and
that upon this basis, as modified by
subsequent reductions In tho cost of
railroad transportation, tho cost of
paid-at-tho-pound-rato matter, for the
services mentioned, Is now approxi
mately 5 cents a pound, whllo tho
cost of free-ln-county nnd transient
matter remains ns formerly, namely,
each at approximately 5 cents a
pound.
The commission suggests that tho
department "maintain an adequate
cost system, so that the effect of the
new rates may bo closely observed
and a proper basis may bo secured
for the consideration of any future
proposals."
President Taft again concurs In tho
recommendation of tho Postmnster
General for the adoption of n parcel
post system, suggesting tho inaugura
tion of such a service on rural routes
nnd In tho city delivery servlco first.
Ownership of Telegraph Opposed.
Hitchcock's recommendation for
government ownership of tho tele
graph linos under tho supervision of
the postal service Is not npproved of
by tho president. Regarding this ho
says:
"There Is only one recommendation
In which I enn not agree that is ono
which recommends that tho telegraph
lines In tho United States should bo
made a part of tho postal system and
operated In conjunction with the mall
system. This presents a question of
government ownership of public utili
ties which are now being conducted by
private enterprise under franchises
from tho government. I bcllevo thnt
tho truo prlnclplo is that private en
terprise should bo permitted to carry
on such public utilities under duo regu
lation as to rates by proper authority
rather than that tho government
should Itself conduct them. This prin
ciple I favor becnuso I do not think it
In accordance witji tho best public pol
icy thus greatly to Increase the body
of public Bcrvnnts. Of course, If It
could bo shown that telegraph servlco
could be furnished to tho public nt n
less price than It is now furnished to
tho public by telegraph companies,
nnd with cqunl efficiency, tho nrgu
ment. might bo a strong ono In favor
of the adoption of tho proposition. Put
I am not satisfied from any ovldonco
that if these properties wero taken
over by tho government they could bo
mnnngod nny moro economically or
any moro efficiently or that this would
ennblo tho government to furnish serv
lco at any smaller rato than tho pub
lic are now required to pay by prlvato
companies."
Tho report of tho Postmaster Gon
cral Is full of statements of changes
In tho organization and methods of tho
postal servlco made since tho last an
nual report, and of tentative drnfts of
legislation embodying certain recom
mendations of tho department which
need legislation to carry thorn out It
also calls attention to tho fact that
tho revenues for the fiscal year ended
Juno 30, 1911, amounted to 1237,879,
23.60 nnd thnt tho expenditures
nraountod to $237,GC0,705.-18, making a
surplus of $219,118.12.
Tho report shows that tho postal
savings system was begun experimen
tally In January, 1911, and thnt it has
no'w been extended so ns to Include
7,500 presidential post offices, which
Includes practically all of tho post
offices of that class. Preparations nre
also being mado to establish tho sys
tem at about 40,000 fourth-class ofllces.

THOUGHTS OF SPRING FEEDS
Birds Should Have Variety, Especially
Great Deal Reasonably Rich In Pro
teinLime Is Needed.
Apoplexy nmong fowls is generally
confined to tho overfnt birds and gen
ernliy tho heavier breeds nro subject
to it. It Is. therefore, necessary that
tho keeper does not feed any great
qunntlty of fat-forming feeds to his
birds, especially to tho heavier breeds.
In tho spring of the yenr moro than
nny other tlmo of the year tho birds
should havo a variety of feeds, nnd
especially a great deal of feed reason
ably rich In protein should bo includ
ed In tho ration.
Soft-shelled eggs aro usunlly pro
duced in considerable numbers at this
time of the year. Tho reason for tills"
generally Hob In tho fact that tho birds
do not got tho proper feed. To form
nn egg shell tho proper materials must
be present, nnd if they are not present
tho BOft-shelled egg Is tho result.
Lime Is ono of tho necessary mate
rials needed in tho formation of nn
egg shell, nnd nt this time of the yenr,
when tho liens are beginning lo lay,
a liberal nmount of Ilmo should bo
present at nil times whero they can
partake or it when they desire. In pro
viding any kind of feed whether it bo
vegetable or animal feed, bo suro that
It la pure nnd wholesome. Musty
grains and rotten mentH will causo
sickness many times when tho flock is
In perfect health.
Guineas as Watchers.
A good point nbout guineas Is that
they make a good "watch dog." Every
person who writes of those fowls men
tlons this point, but a good thing will
benr repeating, In common with wild
birds, they nro always on tho lookout
for enemies, and quickly detect hawks,
dogs, strnngo persons, etc., that ven
ture near. Their wild cries on such
occasions soon put tho Intruders to
rout, and also put all tho fowls on
tho place on their gunrd. If hawks
nro numerous a few guineas In tho
flock will prove or groat help in pro
venting their depredations.
Laying In Winter.
Almost every hen running at largo
layc In the spring nnd lays well. If
tho poultryman can provide theso
conditions through winter, his hens
will lay then tho sarao us they do
naturally In tho spring.
Geese Pay Well.
No kind of poultry keeping can bo
cnrrled on nt so small nn expense for
bulldlngB and equipment ns that of
raising geese, because of tho hardi
ness of tho birds, nnd their desire to
remain in the open air.

FOR FEEDING TURKEYS ONLY
Small V-Shaped Trough Elevated to
Height to Allow Big Blrd6 to
Pick From Is Useful.
Often on a farm whero turkeys arf
raised right along with tho cliiekeiiH
nnd other poultry. It is deslrablo to
feed them heavier than tho other poul
try, yet suitable menus or doing so nro
not available without a fenced yard
to separate thorn, writes P. C. Gross
of Ohio In tho Prairie Farmer. In
such enses the following contrivance
serves admirably:
A small V-shnpcd trough, of Imma
terial length. Is elevated by means ol
supports to a height thnt will allow
the turkeys to btiind on the lloor and
pick from It, yet bo too high to per
inlt tho chickens and small fowls do
ing likewise. Three or four Incliei
nbovo the top of the trough a board, as
wide as the trough, In attached flat
wise. This prevents the chickens rroir,
Hying up and standing on tho edge ol
the trough. The sides of the trougl
Trough for Turkeyr.
should not bo very wide as thlB woult
prevent tho turkeys from reaching tho
corn. or other fed in tho bottom of tho
trough.
With such a trough tho turkeyB may
bo fattened right nmong tho other
poultry, and no feed wnsted on tho
other fowls.
Of course, tho chickens will climb on
top of tho flat board, but from it thoy
can not reach tho trough.
Wtmtim
A good egg Is a raro production.
Tho breeding senson will bo upon
us now before we havo had tlmo to
think.
Tho Indian Runner duck is not In
cllned to fatten so readily as other
varieties.
U Is estimated that It requires the
feathers from about ten ducks tc
rnako a pound.
Full fed hens, having a well bnl
nnccd rntion, will lay larger eggs than
hens on stinted feed.
A warm houso does not mean that
It bo air-tight. Laying hens must have
fresh air at nil times of tho year.
Hy this time you should havo your
Bprlng breeders and tho cockerel with
which they nro to bo mnted selected.
Tho Indlnn Runner duck Is not n
now variety, although it 1b not ns old
as pome of tho other varieties o!
ducks.
Duck eggs aro In demand by confec
tlonors, ns they Impart a glazo to
their icing, which cannot bo had with
hen eggs.
Tho critical period of tho turkev Is
tho first eight weeks of its llfo
About 48 eggs is tho average yearly
record or tho hen.
With many flocks, tho addition of
nn ample supply of meat to tho ra
tion will cause a marked Increase In
the slzo of tho egg.
It takes lots of scheming nnd coax
ing to get tho hons to lay eggs this
cold weather, but they nro worth the
price nfter you do get them.
Hens with plenty of exerclso nnd
comfortable surroundings lay heavier
oggs than those in restricted quar
tcrs: often eggs 10 per cent heavloi
