It advanced ajjain on February 1st; wouldn't be surprised1 to hear of
another advance on March 1st. The trade conditions seem to indi
cate it. We have a few tons still unsold that was bought in
December at the lowest mark. We made the price then and we
are still selling at the same figure.
We have a contract this year where we can get wire
when we want it, providing we can cjet our orders in
early cnm:r;h lo be a little ahead of the usual spring rush at the
mills.
We expect to order, more, but how much will depend upon the
orders we reccicvc during the next two or three weeks.
Remember how it has been for the past two seasons. This spring
you can change these conditions if you will place your order at once.
We are guaranteeing our price. You have absolutely nothing to
lose and everything to gain.
