In our last ad wg maciG mention of our CLOTHING, and wo arc
glad we did, for it brought us a lot of new trade, and it was a re
minder that hurried up our regular customers, and the result is
that we have had the biggest clothing trade this spring we have
ever had in the history of our business. We still have some left
and more coming in.
Our SHOE TRADE has been just as
ood. We had run out of those Ladies'
Dollar Shoes, but we have been lucky
enough to get a lot more ot them.
bee our OXFORDS before you buy
a pair of new shoes.
This week we want to speak to you
about some things that you need right
now. The time is here tor GARDEN
PLOWS. We have them; they are
more complete than ever, and they are
cheaper than ever. Why tramp your
ground with a horse, when you can avoid
it so easily. Price only 2.35.
This is a picture
of the best and
easiest running
LAWN MOWER
made. We have
tried several kinds,
but can't find any
to touch them.
They are self-shar
pening, and we can sell them to you at
$2.50 and $2.65.
ICE CREAM FREEZERS
$1.90 to $2.25.
We have 2 doz. of those Mattock, Garden, and Field Hoes like we had
last summer at 45c.
Dunn Edge Mowing Scythe. This is -counted the best. 48 cents.
They were 65 last year.
We got our GLASS JARS in early. Get prices before you buy; also '
on Jar-tops and rings. See the jar we sell at 7 cents. It is as big as a
10 cent one. fa
SO-BOSS-SO TZZr-something that will do the work. 75 cents
a gallon.
We have the goods this year to get rid of the tly. If thev bother your
stock, use So-Boss-So. If they bother you in the house, use Continental
Screen Windows and Doors 20 and 25c for windows; 85c to $1.00 for
the doors; and then, for the flies that get in when you open the doors, use
genuine Tangle foot fly paper, 4 double sheets for 5 cents.
Screen Wire is cheaper than last year, 8 to 12 cents a yard.
We have just received 5 dozen more of those 25 CENT BROOMS,
same that you pay 35 cents for elsewhere.
If you wish to PAINT your house or barn, you will do well to talk the
matter over with us. At the high price of oil, you will be surprised how
cheap and good we can do it for you. White lead is only one-quarter of
a cent higher than ever it was. Just measure your house around in teet,
multiply this bv the height, divide bv 600 and vou have the number nt
gallons it will take for one coat.
We have added PLOW POINTS and Bolts to our stock.
Store open from 6 in morning until 9 at night, except Saturday and then 10 at night.
