Thirtgs Worth Knowing
FLOUR I tltlheta in quantities, 500 pounds or over;'.
you can purchase' at reduced prices. Come in and take
home a supply.}'Il's the very best.
OATS—Just unloaded another car of those splen-
did Western Oats. These/have been run over our Separ-
ator and the small seeds taken out.. This makes them,
very choice.
CORN—We have corn, the best that can be had. It
is certainly excellent: Seeing that this year's Oats and
Barley are so very light, why not try some of our 'Tank-
age, Low Grade Flour or Corn 'ileal?
SACKS ---Allow ns to once more. call your attention
casks when ordering to our request to bring yettr s g feed
of any kind. As our loss in unreturned sacks is really
serious, we urgently request you to return all Mir sack's
in your possession and bring your own for future pier-
chases. This will help both of at.
