Dry Goods
Farm Machinery
Mr. Farmer, your Government
is calling upon you to raise more
food.
Can you do this without proper im
plements or without soil aids? Never in
the history of this country, except dur
ing the Civil War, has the farmer re
ceived such high prices tor his products
Machinery prices are higher too, but not
in the same proportion.
Will you save money by doing with
out a plow, cultivator, harrow, or some
other necessary implement? Will you
save money by neglecting to buy a bind
er, a manure spreader, or a grain drill?
Think it Over. Remember too,
that we bought at last year's prices, and
can sell at much lower figures than pres
ent market conditions permit Call and
see a complete line.
Our spring dry-goods are bpcrinning
to arrive. More yet to arrive thru out
the month. Come in and look at them
even if you are not ready to buy.
The best way to economize in these
war times is to huv crood quality, staple
merchandise. Don't buy cheap, shoddy
goods. It doosn't pav, and this store
doesn't have them in stock.
