That business will be better during l!':;2 tlian it has darin-.; th ' li'saig! months of 11121 is the belief put forth ! by IVn ('. Holt, manufacturer, n a ,' letter received locally. Among other things, he expresses the oo n'oii that i wheat will go to within the next I To days a view which is not altovthe: ' concurred in by local men. Follow - ' ing is the letter in part: ' I was talking to one of Spokane's .most prominent haulers yesterday j and he told me that, in his op.'n'on, this was the best time to commence ' getting business in a real substantial 1 way that we have known f.ir two ; years. He stated his opinion is that j wheat will be $1.2.". a V.tshel by March 1. j Here are some of the reasons why i I believe business is on the np-yr.ole: France only has eleven million j bushels of wheat and will have to go into the market immediately after the first of the year in making large pur- , chases from the I nited Slates. ltussia is without any wheat and will have to buy in America. Kxchaugo rates will be adjusted through the mcdiiMii of the d'sarmu m:Mit conferences and the possible cancellation of Rome of the war debts as between the nut'ons, France. Ger many.

This will came a demand for all kinds of ma terials and things will improve rapid ly under I he pressure occasioned by a lack of supplies. The way to get business this year is to work about five times as hard as you ever did before and make your prospects realize that times are im proving and that the general trend of business is sound as a dollar.
