A broker secured 20 bottles from various sources, some under 20, and others even a fraction over. To import mercury it costs about 20 per 75 lbs. Bottle to land here, as the price in London is 17 158. The mines have extra good stocks of all mine chemicals, therefore there is hardly sufficient _business to test values. The strictly commercial chemical business is good in the town. And the Johannesburg and Reef hospitals, as well as the military hospitals, are always putting out very decent orders.
