We wish to bring to yonr, notice the fact that we have a shoe made especially for our trade and known as HEAVY WATERPROOF CALF and that this shoe (made as it is) overcomes. the disadvantages of the ordinary farm shoe. IT HAS ALL THE REQUISITES OF A. PER- FECT SHOE. It is WATERPROOF -- WILL KEEP SOFT --WILL NOT GET ROUGH. The sole stock is of the very best and the price is low, considering the quality, namely-. $2.75 Per Pair Remember we are not talking about low priced shoes in this particular instance. In fact, we have very good plow shoes for 81.25, but we guarantee these shoes fully equal to home-made and $1,25 lower in price. Willis & Co.

THE TEA ANO COFFEE STORE TIIVIISDAY, MARCH 31, 1910 Farmers I Vour Attention For One Minute You are likely to need ,new shoes for spring work and we want you to give us the chance to demon - strata that we have a shoe for farm work that is as far ahead of the ordinary factory plow shoe as is DAYLIGHT TO DARKNESS You know from Bast experience that most plow shoes get parol and rough, The finre of the leather becomes open, therefore allowing the water to leak through, making the shoe moat uncomfortable and unhealthy. We wish to bring to yonr, notice the fact that we have a shoe made especially for our trade and known as HEAVY WATERPROOF CALF and that this shoe (made as it is) overcomes. the disadvantages of the ordinary farm shoe. IT HAS ALL THE REQUISITES OF A. PER- FECT SHOE. It is WATERPROOF -- WILL KEEP SOFT --WILL NOT GET ROUGH. The sole stock is of the very best and the price is low, considering the quality, namely-. $2.75 Per Pair Remember we are not talking about low priced shoes in this particular instance. In fact, we have very good plow shoes for 81.25, but we guarantee these shoes fully equal to home-made and $1,25 lower in price. Willis & Co.
