The North Platte Mill & Grain Co. are now completing- improvements to their mill and elevator costing five thousand dollars. With these improvements they will
be in first class condition to handle all kinds of grain with the minimum amount of labor and their milling department will be one of the most complete in the state for turning-
out an absolute high grade flour. Every sack of this flour will be guaranteed to give'entire satisfaction or money refunded.
In order to introduce this flour into every household in North Platte and Lincoln county we have decided, commencing Saturday morning", August 28th, to offer as
an inducement a special low price on same retail at less than wholesale price, so that every family rich or poor, big- or little can afford to try a sack of this flour and be one
of our many satisfied customers. v
Until further notice we quote the following- prices for cash only, delivered to any part of the city in any quantity ranging1 from one sack to a carload as follows:
Best XXXX High Patent per sack $1.35 I Graham Flour per 24 lb. sack.. f . . . ,G5
Rye Flour per 24 lb. sack. ...''. ... .65
Corn Meal per 24 lb. sack 45
Shorts per 100 lbs j 1.00

These prices and goods are only to be had at the Mill or at R. N. Lamb's North side Grocorv Store. We make delivery at ten a. m. and four p. in.
Our phone number, until we can get our new office built, is 7, The Iddings Co If Jou have no p'une drop us a card or call at office. We solicit the patronage of all
the citizens who believe in encouraging home enterprise and thfiriby b lilding up a 1 trer -tt I more enre j.'hin r city to give our goods at least a fair and impartial trial. Do
not let your grocery dealer persuade you that they have somethimg as good or better rrndg elsewhere b r insist and t.ike nothing else excepting that made by North Platte
Mill & Grain Co. In this way you will convert the local de.trler to patronize home industries and in tin 1 he will help build up a larger and more enterprising- city.
