Review Of the Market by The Redick
Hide 4 Eur Co.

," ~ ub w. -s
HIDES: Owing to the demoraliz-
ed condition, of the market and the
fact that dealers are dumping hides
for whatever they can get, makes hide
quotations useless. so we are forced
to withdraw u prices until such a
time as conditions become more set
tied. r
PELTs: The market is lower In
sympathy with the unsettled wool
situation and we find it advisable to
cut u prices soc each on full wool
pelts.
TALLow: The market rules Arm,
although consumers are trying 10
pound down prices but it seems the
scarcity of fats will not admit Of
much of a decline. If any.
RAW FURS: Prices have been
forced very high and a reaction has
already taken place on some articles
and it is expected. others will follow.
Muskrat. Weasel. Wolf and Mink are
still wanted. With warmer weather
fur hearing animals will start to shed
and lower values are bound to rule.

It is also well known fact that fish is a food which makes brain, while it has been proved by the Chinese and the meat-eating people northern Europe that it makes as good muscle as meat.
