Buying one emergency pair, sometimes two, it looks as if the 1919 styles in shoes will now prevail for a few years. It is said that a Glenelg farmer bought five pairs of boots for himself one day last week. _ A merchant told us recently it is nothing unusual for a customer to give an order from $25 to $40 and equip his family. In one case a farmer gave a $25 order and upon arrival home, he phoned up and extended the amount to $35. . It is rumored that the price of shoes is due for an increase from 50 to 100 per cent. Merchants state that the wholesale housâ€" es will take on no new customers and have some difficulty in filling orders from shoe dealers they have long dealt with, A good explanation for increased rates comes from the cost of hides. _ Prée war prices were 24 cents per pound ; now hides are as high as 45 cents.
