The average cost of air travel ls‘ $15 a mile, it is caleculated by Bleriot, as against 1 cent a mile by trolley, 2 cents a mile by railroad train and 25 cents a mile by high power auto- | mobiles, Large aeroplanes cost from $3,500 to $6,000. A shed to house| them cannot be built for less than $750. A mechanic at $3 to $5 a day is another necessity, not to speak of a watchman at $2 a day. SOME POSTAL COMPARISONS. Pending the investigation of gov-| ernmental departments in geuneral that the new congress in inaugura- ting, it is interesting to compare the finances of the United States post- office with those of the Dominion of Canada, The comparison may not be particularly significent, since the §;fl‘@ : conditions in the two countries are S not . identical, Canada having . to transport mail over greater unin- habited districts than does the United States, and also since Canada has the 1 cent rate on drop letters, and a parcels post system. But a comparison is interesting anyway. For the year 1910 the revenues of the Canadian postoffice were $11,- 068,753; those of the United States postoflice $224,128,657. Out of its revenue the Canadian postoffice end- ed the year with a net gain of $713 - 211; the United States postoffica closed the year with a deficit of soms thing more than $5,000,000. It cost Canada $3,646,598 to hu\.ei the mails transported; the United States paid $84,873,687 for trans- portation of mails. That 1is, the 55 Bushan b NEW YoRK.USA transportation of the mails cost each ‘anadian 45 cents and each Ameri-| | HEUS WATBON & ‘ \ . =t | I STARCH | can 91 cents. 3 — G B T it T e vt Canada had 12,887 postoffices, and | =} . 3 i 1 [‘ ’ 4 A NOVEL INVENTION the United States 59,580. The Can- adian postoffice during the year} handled 501,189,000 letters and post | cards; the United States office handled 14,004,677,271 pieces of | mail matter of all kinds. | Most of these figures, of course are | of no significance as far as com- paring the work of the two depart- ments is concerned, but they show rather emphaticaly the comparative size of the two countries, and in view of the surplus on one side on a small amount of business, and the deficit on the other on an immense amount of business, there may be something deep r in the matter than is shown on the surface. It reminds one of the storekeeper who assured a cus- romer that he sold a certain line of | goods below cost and explained that he could afford to do so because | he sold so many articles of that line that he made a profit on the whole transaction.—Duluth Herald. 000000000000000600 ® WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY ¢/ They Fine the Drinker.
