STOVE ADVANCES are al
ready commencing to reach us
from the different Stove Found
ries. Pig Iron is still climbing.
The United States Steel Co.,,
have over 100000 tons of un-
filled orders on their books.
Their entire output for the year
of 1915 was but a few hundred
tons more than this amount.
The 'TRON AGE" says Buy
ers are standing in line to get
what the Mills will allow them"
One large Steel Mill had so
many untitled orders that to
check more future business they
raised their price to what they
thought was a prOhibitive figure.
Orders still kept coming, price
cut no figure. AS we said i'm our
adv. last week, you must know
what this will do to Stove prices.
We have a dozen or so Range
prospects that we know need a
New Range Right Now. We
hope that some of them will see
this adv. Our present Stove
prices are only guaranteed until
January LIST. You have little
time to act. Our advise is to

steps toward remedying the shortage
consists in the quick loading ana un-

exert every effort to prevent all
freight cars from remaining idle on
