What the War Has Done to Prices

June June 1914 1917 Raw Cotton 12c 25c

Merchandise in every line is ad

vancing in price Advances by the

way, that are not proportionate

with the rise in the cost of the raw materials.' That still higher prices

are to come, to use a slang expression, is a safe bet.

A million of our best 'producing men are to be taken out of indus

try causing a still greater shortage of labor.

American wool is selling at 75

cents a pound, a prediction of such

a sensational price this time a year ago would have been cause for the

author's sanity being questioned

A textile trade journal makes the startling prediction of an end of all

wool clothing by the spring of 1918. Raw cotton is now 25c a pound

and by spring will probably be 50c.

New York authorities say: "Cot

ton supplies both present and prospective are inadequate for the

world's supply."

On linens, silks, hosiery and un

derwear advances are coming thick and fast. Every mail brings new warnings along these lines.

Such conditions demand your sin

cere thought to look ahead to invest in needed merchandise. In our July Reduction Sale we are offering merchandise for less than the mill prices of today. Made possible because we prepared) for these conditions before the great advances. However, there is a limit to everything and our supply, great as it is, will not last forever. Is it not sound judgment to practice preparedness to safeguard yourself against advances already in evidence, wherever you go or on whatever you need.
