' When it is known that 450,000,000
post cards are manufactured annually in
the United States, it is•keasy to believe
that the factory at Castleton, N.Y., which
has the Contract, turns out between
two or three tons a day. Heretofore HT
cards have been sent to Albany and there
distributed through the Railway Postal
Service to such points as they'were order-
ed filen. Recently, however, the Gov-
ernment has established supply depots at
Chicago, St. Louis and Atlanta' and the
Castleton firm has just receivedan order
for a train load for the first -mentioned
city. This means a load of about 125
tons, containing about 45,000,000 clods.
l'hese facts are somewhat incompatible
with the theory that postmasters and
postmistresses read all the cards that pals
through the mails.
