the possibilities of the wholesale held
were SO great that it would pay to
devote our entire time to this bust
ness. At present so per cent of our
total sales are in the wholesale de-
partment. and we believe that with our
better facilities, the decreased expense
and the improved advantages in buying
under the new system, we can increase
this business greatly. the fact that
we viii be directly on the railroad will
in itself effect a great saving
With the field just as it is, we are
confident we can develop much more
business, but, in addition to that, we
look forward TO great development in
this territory. At present we are sell

of Montana. We expect to increase
our business in this territory and to
spread out clear into Oregon.
Development of Territory.
People are settling Up this terri
tory rapidly and. with the building of
two more railroads into Salt Lake and
the carrying out of other projected en-
terprises, the development should be
great indeed. We want to be ready

there is already a good field without
