FEAR, DRUGGIST. 1 NTERESTI NO FARMERS. Much has been said during the recent political campaign of the great import- ance—and the actual necessity—of mak- ing our farmers in general a more pros- perous and thriving people. It has been asserted that this is the only true foundation upon which to build up our dear Canada, to make it cope success- fully in all branches: of industry and production with all the countries of the earth, which undoubtedly is its destiny sooner or later. While it is true that a great many good, practical arguments have been advanced and discussed, and a number of schemes anti propositions laid before the people, and while there are great diversities of opinions, the fact still remains that the farmers in the vizinity of Seaforth still have the oppor- tunity of supplying themselves with the best line of finplements in Canada at O. C. Willson's. There are. fifteen different styles of plows to select from; culitvators and seedeis, four styles; road carts, buggies and from wagons in numerous styles; wind mills for pump- ing, sewing machines, washing machines and churea, plow castings and repairs of all kinds. Farmers, come and see for yourselves. See the New Line Hand -made Opaque WINDOW • SHADES — AT THE BOOKSTORE OF — 0. W. PAPST, SEAFORTEf, ONT. Still They Come, AND -- There's Room for More. We wish to return our thanks to the farmers and others ha this vicinity for their very liberal pat- ronage during the past three months. We are now in a better shape than ever to attend punctually to our largely increasing thisting and Chopping trade. We are pleased to find our efforts to give satisfac- tion in both quantity and quality have proved satisfactory to our patrons. To those who have not yet given us a trial, we say by all means do so, and be convinced this is the lest place in this country to • get your gristing done, We have on hand and to arrive • a large quantity of Manitoba wheat, which we hope will add to our steadily increasing flour trade. We g uarante our flour as good or be - ter than any manufactured in this part of the country, and will con- tinue to sell at prices which -will defy competition. Dealers and others call and see us and get quo- tations before purchasing elsewhere. Remember the place, Seaforth Roller Mills, near the railway freight sheds, formerly known as the Red Mill. W. 11.
