Explanation:
бесплатная доставка (почты) в сельскую местность Почтовая услуга, введенная Конгрессом [Congress, U.S.] на постоянной основе в 1896 по требованию фермерской организации "Нэшнл грейндж" [National Grange of the Patrons of Husbandry ]. Этому противодействовали представители городского малого бизнеса, так как введение бесплатной доставки привело к развитию торговли по почте [mail order] и соответственно к снижению спроса на их услуги

r.f.d. no Номер бесплатной доставки почты в сельскую местность

Explanation:
Rural delivery service refers to the delivery of mail in what are traditionally considered rural areas. In the United States, rural letter carriers began service with the experiments with Rural Free Delivery in 1891. RFD was adopted generally in the United States in 1902, resulting in progressive closure of post offices from their peak of 76,945 in 1901 to the present number of about 36,000.[1]

Как мне кажется это типа номера армейской полевой почты. Хотя может быть несколько грубоватая аналогия.
