Supplies For Parcels Post Service | Postmaster William Caruthers Has Received Additional Equipment For the New uary 1—Ingenious Division of Country Into Zones and | Tracts Provides For Scale of Charges, Postmaster Willlam Caruthers has Just received some further supplies for the parcels post service, Which begins on the ist of January. These consist of a parcels post gulde, which is the book by which the rates are figured out, and a_big map showing the di- visfon of the country Into zones and tracts, and also & tape measure for ascertaining whether parcels are with- in_the regulation size. The big map is a most ingenious ar- rangement for ascertaining the proper postal charge to be made for any pack- age to any part of the counmtry. Big circles from a common center are drawn, thus dividing the country into the eight zones for varying charges, according to distance, The whole coun- try is also plotted off into the so- called tracts, rectangular divisions made along the lines of latitude and ! longitude. There are 5713 of these tracts. To find out what a rate would be is a simple matter by the use of the gulde book and zone map. For instance, Nor- wich is in tract 565.
