ordered by the postmaster 'geo-
.", era! to.take effect Aug. 16 are of
'p great unportanee to small ahtp-
- pert, particularly in Eastern
Oregon where stage lines are
' frequent and express rates are
. high; j--s .j--.
An important thing in the par-
-. eels post system is the fact that
distance are now computed in a
straight line, - whereas express
. companies make their charges
f, according to the actual number
:.i of aulas the package is carried.
? For instance, from Portland to
. lone k approximately 160 miles
on a straight Hne but a package
f toansported from Portland to
' 1 e must bscarried lSQtmiles

areoompBtod by the air route
j ' while express companies charge
. according to the number of miles
-'traveled. , i v .
The reduced rates which go in-
l to effect August 16 apply only
within the 160 mile circle, which
:j is now the second sone the lo
cal and rural routes having been
' the first son. The new rate will

For the second none of 160

AVERAGES 33 4

THRUHEADING
Sam Ritchie Cluaqiiw Header , Op

Kecsrd Hard toBsat' i s
. : ... J;
Lexington, Aug. 8 '(Special to
the Bulletin) Sam h RftcMe, a
farmer and sdxkraiser, 'whose
ranch 4airuasid miles nrttvf
the base line, in township 1 north
range 26 east, W. If., can justly
be called the champion header
operator of Morrow County as he
finished the cutting of approx
imately 666 acres of grain, some,
of which with an abundance of
straw and well filled grain, in 17
days averaging about 88 acres a
day. ;-
That is going some, to use a
popular slang phrase, and, by
the Morrow County vernacular
is prolific in colloquial expression,
but the above statement is a
fact, and 'facts are stubborn
things."
Those who doubt the forego
ing assertion 'as to the large
average of the cutting of grain
may, ask Mr. OHn S. Hodsdoiy
the- successful .'pioneer stock
raiser, scientific dry farmer and
horticulturist of Hodsdonville a
suburb of Lexington because
Mr. Hodsdon can .corroborate the
assertion. .-
Mr; Sam Ritchie Is A natural
born header manipulator and he
likes to be astraddle of the rud
der of a header as a fish takes
to water. The only difference
between 8am and -a fhh is that
the latter can't do without water
white Mr. Ritchie abhors a rids
on the water as nature abhors
a vacuum; neither love nor money
could indues Sam totaka "joy
ride" on the ocean.
