There- fore the average length of a route is 173,256.14 miles divided by 2,587 routes, or 66.97 miles. As above stated, one pound of mail is carried over 4.9 routes, and each route averages 66.97 miles, which makes 328 miles as the average haul of a pound of mail.^ ' It should be noted that a little more than 10 per cent is here added ".for the weight of the equipment. This allowance proved far too small, for the test of 1899 showed that the weight of the equipment practically equaled the weigh...t of the mail carried. For the results of the weighing, see table II, page 200. 'Senate Report No. 991, p. 146, LV Congress, second session. A VALUATION OF DATA 89 Let us examine first the data and then the method by which this result was obtained. Attention has already- been directed to the fact that the Post-Office Department has no data that can be regarded as satisfactory of the total amount of original mail matter handled each day ; and therefore it was very properly stated in the demon- stration that it was estimated that the average weight handled per day was 1,601,400 pounds.
