When the new "working wuhoo

probably on Mock S. In Couch. Addi

seeking to ren4emn for that purpose,
la mailing and delivery dpartroonta

la Intended, however, that a atatlon

peetoffU-e. and people may continue to
buy etarrpa and n.o:iy ordrra and to

"At present 11 minutes la allowed

for 3 clerke to art the mall. to un

"The Poatofflce Per-arlment hat
adopted the plan cf constructing Fed

locating these bulldlnse aa near aa

"It la the general policy of the Post

Tork. In that city they are working
on the theory of delivering the mall at
the home or place r-f buelnesa of the
peraon addressed. The policy all over
the country la to discourage a targe
general delivery at the potoff Ice. In
Seattle a rule la rlgorouety enforced
requiring persona to give an addreae
for mall delivery, use of general do
livery being permitted not longer than
tn ?y.
"Such a rule In Portland might Im
pose some harilshlp because of the In
adequacy of the working force of the
office here. We have nover been able
to Institute carrier a. rvlce In Arleta.
f-r 4mp. because we have not
enough carrier. Many persona who
have homee In Arleta live a mile or
more from the Arleta postofflr-e. and to
get their mall there Involves an extra
carfare or a long walk. These people
get their nvall sent to the xenral de
livery department of the Portland post
office. City Outgrow t'arllltlr.

LEGE. Corvallls, Or., Feb. 1. (Special.)
C. E. Whistler, of Medford. manager
of the Bear Creek Orchard and repre
sentative of the Rogue River Fruit
Association at the recent convention of
applegrowers In Portland, spoke be
fore the students of the Winter short
course her today on the "Preparation
and Marketing of Apples," characteriz
ing the great danger to the apple Industry-
as "under-consumption," rather
than over-production.
Mr. Whistler showed that while fewer
apples were being produced than ever
before, the advertising of sub-tropical
and citrus fruits had drawn away the
attention of the world from apples and
that the great movement of apple pro
ducers was but Just beginning to bring
the people back to the old deciduous
favorite. More apples are In storage
this year In ratio to the total crop than
ever before in the history of the In-,
dustry, he said.
The greatest shipping problem In the
apple Industry, said Mr. Whistler, Is
the problem of obtaining an equitable
storage and transit rate from the rail
roads similar to that now given for
the shipment of wheat and livestock.
