To quickly rid a coop of lice,
take it away from the buildings
and scorch it inside and out with
blazing straw like singeing a
chicken. The coop will catch
fire, but a little water at hand
will take care of that.

Shoes
As you all know, shoes are advancing in price,
but we are glad to say that' we are still able
to sell a great many shoes at old prices. As
long as we have them at the old prices we
will sell this way, so we think it will be to your
advantage to buy early.
Wire and Wire Nails.
We bought a carload of wire and wire nails
last October which did not reach us until the
10th of January; and1 it was lucky that we
did buy early, for the wholesale price has
made several advances since that time. We
are now offering wire fence to you at prices
we would have to pay, if we were buying now.
As long as this lot lasts you will get it at Jan
uary prices.
