EXPECT HEAVY
FALL BUSINESS
General Improvement is Noted in
Most LineS-GOOd Demand
For Labor.

NEW YORK. July 10.-Bradstreets
Review Saturday says:
''Irregularity in distributive trade
contrasts with charging activity in
industrial lines. continued absorption
of idle workingmen, heavy war or
ders, increased bank clearings and a
generally good crop outlook, notwith-
standing rainy weather at harvest in
parts Of the winter wheat belt.
Except in sections where season.
ably dry weather has prevailed, SELL
ing by final purveyOrs has been check
ed by low temperatures or too much
rain. At the same time jobbing trade
in FOODS for prompt shipment ex-
periences the usual dullness witnessed
during the fore part OF July. Yet in
zones where sustained employment,
due TO war orders or fine crop pros
poets operate to circulate money or to
buoy confidence, a reasonably good
volume of forward orders has ap-
peared and ever where, even in parts
of the south where trade at the mo-
ment as whole is very dull, sentiment
quite unanimously points 20 a heavy
fall and winter business.
"A number of industries continue to
work slow time, but in iron and steel
lines and Industries catering to wars
wants, growing activity is the rule. De-
mand for and production of iron and
steel is expanding, the price situation
is firmer, the period for specifying on
numerous contracts taken at low
prices ended with June, and instead of
a summer shutdowns. the hot months
are likely to see full capacity en-
plOyed with a probable shortage of
labor. Collections are not above fair
and ii seems as if they had tapered
off somewhat, the belated movement
of wheat in the southwest combined
with the backward season having act
ed as retarding influences. Money is
firmer and commercial paper is in
better demand at the west but sup
plies are only moderate.
Cereal prices are higher, wheat
leading on continued rains in the
south vest delaying harvesting, thresh-
ing and crop movement. Cotton is
lower on doubts as to political COM
plications affecting the shipments of
old and new crops"

Truth
in Advertising

To speak truly of the store and
its merchandise is the policy Of all
Wyman advertising.
Our advertisements first of all
describe in detail the goods ad-
Yertised. The "ad-man' looks at
the goods, then writes about them
from seeing and knOwing-there
is no guess work.
Written in simple, direct. plain
speech, rs near as words can make
plain. our merchandise is exactly
what we advertise. You will find
at all times the description true to
what we are selling.
We do not compare our store or
our goods with other stores OF
their merchandise because VIC do
not know about other stores and
their merchandise. We do. how
ever, know about our own aud
that is what we tell about. The
prices we quote are prices which
we believe to- be just and reason
able. Comparative prices are based
upOn values from our own store
and are not estimated.
The above principles are followed
