change. when il says:
In order to make n market for new good,
1t Is absolutely necessary that old goods be
worn out or in some other way got rid OF.
The past two years have seen VIGOROUSLY
dry weather in the West and Northwest.
just at time when the retail merchants

boots do not wear out as quickly in dry
weather as in wet; in fact. boot that will
last man but three months in ordinary
wet weather will remain good six months
under the more favorable circumstances of
dry season Lots OF boots were carried
over from last year to this. and made to do
double duty. That prevented niue htrade

among the wholesale houses. and those
