Postage and Packing Charges

The charges on one division of any size (or root of
any size) will be 10c. The charges on two divisions or
roots will be 12c, on three roots or divisions 14c, on four
roots or divisions 16c, and one cent for each additional
root or division.

These charges may appear too large in the first,
second, third and possibly fourth zones but customers
living in the fifth, sixth. Seventh, and eighth zones will
probably notice that on some packages the charges were
higher than the amounts noted here. We hope we will
remember to place an additional division or two in each
package to equalize packing charges.
