{. Times - st. ClFa1d.
Dear Mr.. Macdonald: noticed in
the Times Few days ago refer
ence to an editsrial in "Tne Eleven
Towns published at Erie, Penning-
ton county. The Times expressed
doubt that the statements made by
tThe Eleven TDwns' was correct.
The statement was that the prison
twine output fsr the present year
had been consnRcted for by jobbers
months ago, and not a pound could
be had by dealers except through job
bers, and that at an advance of from
&c to 23kc oHer last season g prices.
You were1a correct in expressing
doubt as to this statement, because
| it is absolutely untrue. We cannot
understand where The Eleven
i Towns got such information. Not
q pound Of PRISON twine has beer
sold to jobberA. Every bit Of it, over
l8,O00, 600 lbs, has been sold to deal
ers and the fa1saers Of this staye.
The state changed &c pound more
this year than Il did FOR last year q
twine, but the difference in the price
Of raw material this year compared
with last years IS from 211asc to 311ac
2 pound increase; and, as matter Of
fact, in proportisn the farmers are
getting their twine cheaper in 1913
than in 1912.
The terms Of eon4xacts with dealers
are regulated by law and provide that
q dealer may charge not to exceed le
profit q pound when payment time is
extended until fall. SIS
