Making output of data from remote hosts smaller

so i'm doing something similar to this:

Code:
ssh myname@remotehost 'tail -800 /var/log/some.log'

Now, as you can see, this is a lot of data to be passing back and forth over a network.

Is there anything i can do to make the output smaller (zip it on the fly, compress?) and then when the data gets back to my local box, i can unpackage it to its original?

im looking for a one liner type of thing.
