GILLESPIE e. ROGERS.
Why Shoes are Higher.

There are just two factors to make
shoes high priced, one a scarcity of
labor and the other scarcity of ma
terials. We have both. The strikes
make labor uncertain and very expen-
sive. Factories are all working on
shorter hours than in years past and
paying about double the wages ex-
pected before the war. There is an
active demand for leather for innu-
merable commodities, shoes coming in
for their share only. The wholesale
makers of shoes have attempted to
follow the established lines of proceed
ure but find it impossible. The
most expensive shoes are bought
in a department store. This is
an age of specializing. The farmer
does not grind his flour or weave his
own cloth any more. He lets the
miller grind the -four and the cotton
manufacturer weave the cloth because
he can get better flour and better
cloth. Now. You get the best shoes
from the man who gives all his time
exclusively to the buying and selling
of shoes alone. All his time is spent
in selecting the, best grades of leather
from the best companies (for there
are hundreds of manufacturers and
choosing the best styles for men,
women and children. This is not true
of shoes alone, but of every commod-
ity. The boot shop of Brookings
-.
and hosiery in the different grades
and shows the latest styles direct
from eastern manufacturers. They
also do big mail order business with
customers who are unable to get to
their store Their main effort is to
get the best shoes for the money,
knowing that no one wants to squan-
der money on cheap good-for-nothing
footwear.
