RURAL DELIVERY PROMISED.
Route May Soon Be Established on Weston Mountain.

J. P. Fogarty, route agent of the rural free delivery system, was piloted over the mountain country by F. J. Boedefeld, who knows it well.

The proposed route, says the Leader, leads from Weston to Tamarack, on Weston mountain; thence across to Basket mountain and down to the Milliken place; thence to George W. rorning, Stagg's residence on Dry creek and back to Weston.

There are 125 houses along this route, which is an easy and natural one, and serves the mountain country well.

Mr. Fogarty expressed his entire approval of it, and there is no doubt that it will be established in about two months.

Mr. Fogarty said that another populous mountain country-that of Wildhorse and Reed & Hawley mountains-would doubtless be granted a rural free delivery route from Weston should its people make an effort to secure one.
