"The Christmas Valley I had from you were very fine- better than any I have 

 ndled in iS years' experience, and I have kicked myself because I did not order more, 

 ill want a large quantity next season; can't compete now-a-days unless you have 

 net king a little better than the other fellow— and the extra Price received more than 

 fiays the difference in cost between No. I stock and ordinary^ and there 

 is a satisfaction outside of dollars and cents that goes a long way."
