COMPLETE LINE OF FARM MACHINERY, REPAIRS, HARDWARE, STOVES, &C. J ust now, I want to call especial attention to the Ontario Grain Drill I have sold this Drill to the farmers of Fulton county for ten years, and for sowing wheat aud phosphate it stands without a peer. The Steel King Wagon One-third lighter and stronger than any other wagon built. It has an axle that cannot be broken and is fully guaranteed. These wagons are used on the mountain every day by C. R. Spangler and J. W. Mellott in their heavy lumber hauls, and give best of satisfaction. CORN HARVESTERS Farmers were a little slow about taking hold of Corn Harves ters at first, just as they were with the Reaper when it first came out; now, farmers would as lief cut wheat with a cradle, as corn with the old fashioned corn cutter. ALL ORDERS FILLED PROMPTLY. W. H. NESBIT, McConnellsburg Nothing adds more to the refinements of home than good music. To have good music you must have a g6od instrument. There are good bad and indifferent instru ments, and to the unskilled eye they look much alike. The unprincipled dealer is likely to make you pay a first-class price for a fourth-class instrument. I have lived in this county since my birth, I am a taxpayer and in a position to make good any business transactions. Buy your piano, organ, or victrola trom me and if it is not all right you can come back at me. There are families in every part of this county that have purchased instruments from me. Ask them about me. Perhaps you want to trade your organ for a Piano, or Player Piano; or your Plain Piano, for a Player. See me. Let's talk it over. L. W. FUNK. It's Victrola Time And it's saying a good deal but it's true, that there never was as large a line of talking Machines in town.
