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. Kngland, Italy and America.
The lumber business, ahvays a good
barometer, is looking up. Mills are
active on the coast and prices have ad
vanced the last sixty days.
It is said that Los Angeles, In its
house building proKrani, is using one
million fee! of lumber a day.
People in alt countries of the world
have (true to work again. 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.
