Dear Sirs:-
Yours of the 27th is here and we are mailing you under separate
cover a sample of baling material which we think will answer your purpose.
We offer you this at 5 1/2 ¢. We can also offer you similar material
about 29 inches wide at 5 3/4 ¢, all net fob New Orleans.
If you will send us a sample of the rope you have been using, ‘
showing exactly what you want, we will be glad to take up this matter also.
We believe we can certainly name you attractive prices on both,the
rope and baling material, if you will advmse us just exactly how many
pounds of the rope you will want, and how many yards of baling material.
Please do not failto let us heas as from you when you are in the
market for blue grass bags, as well as purlap of any description.
The baling material we are sending you is very nice but if it
does not answer your purpose we can furnish something else, but this is
A the cheapest material to use; that we know of.
Yours very truly,
MENTE & GO. “ ‘
