Some time when prices for beef |

. the, the members of some of the j
I granges in Berkshire county, Mass., j
co-operated in defying the high prices '
; of the meat trust and getting their own j
j fresh meat at a low price. Some of the I
I farmers raising young stock agreed to- j
gether to kill oil' stock as it was ueoded !
, to supply meat, taking turns and dis j
I tributing to each other and to other j
' members of the grange at a lower price (
than meat was selling for in tbe mar- j
ket. Two important grange ideas were !

j fined over half a century ago by the

I tion of this international limit has not

j nearby settlers, never loath to seize
j a"u opportunity for a quarrel with their
j neighbors on the other side of the in

Give you some IMOmr CAfTQ
Mr. F. L. Shaw, manager J| A Kj JL AmJ MLmd JL AM L JL kJ
of our vehicle interests, bought
two buggies from the same house the other day. One cost $ 18.00 more than the other. Then he took the buggies
all apart to see just why one was higher priced than the other. Here is what he found out:
B° f h buggies had exactly the same teat and back, same size body, same wheels, shafts and everything else, except
that the higher priced one had 14-oz. cloth trimmings instead of Keratol, found in the cheaper ; a leather boot, instead
of rubber ; a better axle, and the finish on the woodwork was slightly better, but not very much.
Read the difference—and learn how easily price can be raised without changing the grade, in a buggy.
