goods you make, we have to
keep a step ahead so that we
are mak ig the kinds of goods
that can be sold. Styles in
cloth and trends change.
When markets are high, there
is lower demand for higher
count fabrics, such as style P
which is the 39" 80 x 80 4.00
print cloth. When the market
is like that, there is greater
demand for styles like E,
which is the 39" 68 x 72 4.75.

you Know we make
pocket twills for the clothing
trade. When their business
is good, then the demand
for that cloth is
pretty good. But when their
business falls off. our business
on these twills is inclined
to suffer.
Wc have salesmen employed
solely by us to sell only
our own goods, and also
representatives out of town
with two in the Boston area,
one in Chicago, one in Los
Angeles handling the entire
Pacific Coast, one in Cincinnati
and one in Baltimore,
Atlanta and Dallas. Texas. We
also use some brokerage
houses from time to time.
