A Reduction In Price Of Stamped Envelopes

The United States has made a reduction in the price of stamped envelopes and the reduced prices are now in force in the Ann Arbor postoffice. The reduction is not uniform. The medium size of twocent stamped envelopes, formerly known as C's and now as No. 3, now sell for 54 cents a package of 25 envelopes, that is fifty cents for the stamps and four cents for the tventy-five envelopes. This is a reduction of one cent. Twentyfive i-cent white envelopes now sell for 29 cents, a reduction of one cent and 25 i-cent manilla envelopes being 28 cents. There is no reduction in the old A's and D's, now known as No. 2 and No. 5 when bought by the package. There is, however, a reduction of 4 cents on 1,000 A's, and 20 cents on 1,000 D's, or large size. The reduction on the medium sized envelopes is also 20 cents on 1,000 envelopes. On orders of 500 the government prints name and address without extra charge. So that now anyone can get 500 medium sized envelopes with name and address printed for $10.80, or $10 for the stamps and 80 cents for the envelopes.
