thanks for yours input , i will take that into consideration, but about the main question,
how can i make this code in better way , so i do not have to right it multiple times?
i try to do it with for cycles but as i have -newermt 2 times in same iteration it makes it harder
Code:
find /tmp/w/ -type f -newermt '2014-01-01' ! -newermt '2014-02-01' | pax -w | gzip > files01.tar.gz
find /tmp/w/ -type f -newermt '2014-02-01' ! -newermt '2014-03-01' | pax -w | gzip > files02.tar.gz
find /tmp/w/ -type f -newermt '2014-03-01' ! -newermt '2014-04-01' | pax -w | gzip > files03.tar.gz

NAME

       monthly - httpd log rotation for wwwstat

SYNOPSIS

       monthly

DESCRIPTION

       THIS PROGRAM MUST ONLY BE RUN ONCE PER MONTH!  DURING THE FIRST WEEK It assumes a lot, like that you use wwwstat and archive your logfiles
       once per month.	You will need to configure it for your server before it can be used.

       Reads the logfile (assumed to contain more than one month's worth of WWW common logfile entries) and moves the prior month's entries into a
       separate file.  The new file is created on TMPDIR (to avoid filling up the disk), compressed using gzip, and then moved to the archive
       directory.  The program also restarts the httpd server.

SEE ALSO

       crontab(1), httpd(1m), perl(1), wwwstat(1), splitlog(1), wwwerrs(8), oldlog2new(8)
