That all British Manufacturers of Cloths have been
notified that no more pure wool cloth is to be made
during the war. Every yard of cloth manufactured
must contain at least 40 per ent. cOtton. Fortunately
for -Ahis neighborhood we have stored up a goodly
quaneaty of the pure wools in cloth and in made up
garments, and eariy buyers are sure to secure their re-
quirements in clothing and underwear. Please make
note that we say " early buyers " this means those
who buy now -for there is such a scarcity in the mar-
kets of the pure wool class of goods that after present
stocks are exhausted there'll be nothing but the! adult-
erated to be had.
