PRICE REDUCTION

On July /, 1921. the price
OF The Diamond Drill will
be reduced from $500 per
year to $3.50 This reduc-
tion is due TO the fact that
the price OF print paper has
dropped considerably from
its high point. although It is
still far above what II was
in 1914. When We increased
the price we promised our
subscribers that as soon as
paper prices receded we
would drop our subscrip-
tion price and this Is the
first step in keping faith
with our patrons. Ttis re-
duction applies only 20 sub

Furriers Show Anxiety
Placing of Advance Orders for
Fall Restricted

The local manufacturing furriers are
disturbed over the spotty conditions
now obtaining in this trade. While nu-
merous buyers for retail establish
ments have been in the market lately.
the placing of advance orders has been
light. Road statesmen report that it is
difficult to interest the merchants in
fall goods now, and that many of those
who formerly purchased from the trav-
eIng statesmen now declare their in
tention Of visiting the market here in
person, Those who do come on. how
ever, "shop" around the market, and in
most cases leave after placing only a
few orders for some of the cheapest
merchandise. Price rather than quail
lty is being stressed in the retailers
purchases, and some of the manufac-
turers fear that public reaction against
poor quality will set in before the sea
son is finished.
The high grade manufacturers are
suffering from lack of business to a
greater extent than the producers Of
cheap merchandise, it is said. Nor.
buyers are to come here during july
and the wholesale furriers are predict.
ing distinct change in business then.

Cotton Goods Market

The unfinished goods division Of the
cotton goods markeet closed the week
with softer prices than any reached on
previous days during the week. Re-
ports from Fall River indicated that
the total sales in that market for the
week were about $4,000 pieces, COM
pared with 100000 peces month or two
ago. One explanation of slack trading
in gray goods for conversion purposes
now, is that the summer season is near
ing its close and converters are ap-
preaching the fall season in q cautious
manner. The continued downward
trend in raw cotton prices also made
former gray goods prices look & bit
high to many buyers.
Yesterday the standard $3.50, 3s1s
