The point we are making, you can plainly
see. is that the Rugs we have bought and are now
buying will be at prices made to hold for a year to
come, and we assure you of a saving over goods
bought the last year, of from 10 to 20 per c en t
Several shipments of Rugs are now on the
way and should arrive about the 20th of this
month, with several other shipments to arrive
about May 1st.
We are often asked if the Rugs made now
are as good as those made formerly when we used
German dyes. We can assure you they are. And
we firmly believe they will even be better. Do
yon know that in the year 1914 our exports of dyes
to all countries was but a littlag over $500,000?
Where in 1918 it had grown to over seventeen
million. Certainly there must be some virtue in
them.
