Consequently it seemed tome business to deal directly with the far- ;mer and pay him the much higher prices which we used to pay to the peddlers and middiemen--thus elimin- ating the peddler and middleman to a great degree. By shipping direct th us the Farmer secures a very much higher price for his wool which in a good many cases means a profit ofa to him. the many for many years is so that 1 am en- couraged to continue tl ye greater extent this year, For over 30 years 1 have been and know the market from A to Z, Before selling your wool this Ean fail to write First for a anting The Farmers who ship, to me receive their cosh 7 highest Toronto prices---with no Heductions exeept Hn aa 84 And preparing + wool for I Jave published s bok on a ree Wels or % for 0 soday mw is very and | shall he glad to send I oheg of Bk Fumi President John Hallam, Lid, the man who will deal direct with you.
