Three weeks ago we announced, "In buying we will give the best market outlet and price that our position as a medium can bring to you." Since there is no present "contracting" mar ket for either wool or lambs, a certain demand arose for pre-shearing advances on wool. Be yond this, growers are not a unit in their pref erence for such accomodation as between dealer or cooperative organizations. To broaden your opportunity in this respect, we have arranged to make advances frem either dealer or co-operative sources to you as your best judgment may dictate. In accepting advances through us, no direct obligation involves you to deliver wool through our warehouse although we will be very glad to serve you in this way also. ' The time is possibly approaching when out side money will be needed and appreciated. Our efforts to supply this is just a matter of policy to aid and serve you best when you need it most.
