Big April postal receipts

April shows a nearly ten percent increase

Apparently Ann Arbor is steadily growing in prosperity judging by postoffice barometer

The receipts of the Ann Arbor post office for the month of April were $4,432.90. This is an increase of $302.98 over April of last year when they were $4,039.92, and is by far the largest April in the history of the Ann Arbor postoffice. The postal receipts here show a steady growth and furnish a pretty good index to the growth of the city. The highest receipts in any one month in the history of the office was in October of last year, when the receipts were $5,477.29. October is usually about the heaviest month of the year. The receipts for the coming year, for the first time, will undoubtedly pass the $50,000 mark.
