Big Loss in Post Cards.
The February. 1925, estimate for
first class mail was that the depart
ment would receive an increase Of
$40 200, 900 in revenue. The estimate
for 1926 indicates that in reality the
department will receive an increase
of only $354,s26. This material de-
crease is attributed to the loss of q
large number Of post cards. the rate
on which was doubled. This is con-
firmed by data indicating that only
800 ,539,5 $50 post cards will be handled
in 1926, while approximately 1850.
OOO.00 of these cards were carried
in 1925.
The February. 1926. estimate was
that there would be an increase OF
81, ,00O, 900 in second-ciass transient
mail matter. The 1926 estimate indi

of transient second class because OF

and $13,000.00O respectively. The
1926 table estimates these increases
at $22. .684.222 for third class and $8.'
9.648 for fourth class However.
these amounts do not show the In.
creases on account of the changes IN
rates, because the revenue on q Ger.
tain part Of fourth class. which was
transferred to third class by the act
Of 1925, is involved in them.
Other Returns Fall O6.
The February estimate for registry
matter was $3.50 900. while the 1895
estimate shows that the increase will
rather be about $1,643.6SS. This indi,
Gates that the department did not hold
all it's registry business. and the diff
ference will probably be found in the
transfer of some registry matter to
the money order service and q loss

business because Of the increase In
rates.
Estimates on insurance matter show
decrease from $3.05s.147 to $1,274..

England, and the firm will pursue
the same policy as they have on
Eashcn island.
This firm started here about
two years ago aud has now become
the largest individual business on
the island. Both Mr.. England and
aIr. Petersen have earned the re-
putation of being absolutely hon
est, aud added to this is thorough
Business experience in handling
OF both poultry feeds and pro
ducts. The firm has perhaps done
as mch to promote the poultry in

agency Mr.. England has been in
the farming and grain business all
his life and has now left for a
month in Castor, Alberta, where
he still has large holdings.
From a humble beginning by
p. A. Petersen, now deceased, this
concern has grown by leaps and
hounds and is now known all ovt
the Puget Sound section. The
firm has an abundance of capital
back of them, as Mr.. England is
to count his personal cap
