Job Paper Prices.

People who use stationery are hav-
ing to pay pretty dearly for it these
days. it is generally understood by
everybody that the prices on all kinds
of papers have advanced "out of
sight" This advance applies espec-
tally to fine papers. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that the price of paper
has been widely discussed in the
newspapers, some of the customers
of The Herald's job department do
not fully. understand why we have
had to advance our prices. We do
not know a great deal about the
cause of the advance. About all we
can say is that the mills and jobbers
ascribe it to the war. At any rate,
we do know that all papers are
costing us about fifty per cent. more
than formerly. On some lines the
advance is much higher. Envelopes
that we used to pay u cents per
thousand for now costs us $1.36;
bond paper we used to get for 10
cents pound now costs us 10 cents;
Strathmore parchment paper, one
of the finest known to the printing
trade, formerly cost "a cents a pound
and it now costs 35 IL cents. The
increase in expense is not confined to
papers, either; everything else we
have to use costs according to paper
We have not increased our prices fif'
ty per cent, although we would be
iustifiable in doing so, but there is
nothing else for us to do but to ad'
vance our prices to cover the in
creased cost of paper. One paper
/ that has been affected more than any
other is the ordinary colored circular
paper. It now costs 10 cents pei
pound-when it can be had at all
which is about fifty per cent. higher
than the best grade of news paper
This practically eliminates the use o1
colored poster paper. AS ordinary
white paper is high enough, most Gus
toners are contented to cut out the
colored circulars, and use white pa
per instead.
