NO. THE SELECTION OF THE MATERIALS - {
To buy the bost that the open market affords
is privilege of every maker Of mems clothes
and in so far as quality alone is concerned
makers of good clothes will have other
than fabrics Of pure wool.
But where everyone may buy, exclusive pat Z
terms are impossible. Therefore the open {
market supplies us with but few of our fabrics .
The majority Of our wooens woven
pressy for exclusive use, from patterns
first submitted to by the mills. This is the 4,
case with very nearly all of our fancy materials :,
As to fine staples there are dealers in woolens
who import the best foreign cloths and
who operate also in the choicest weaves Of p
our home looms Their sales are usually
confined to merchant taiors Of the front rank (
