Going Out of Business!
Yes, that is a fact. I have traded my business
property here for a farm in Merrick county, and must
make a reduction of the stock here to the extent of
three thousand dollars.
To do this, I must offer some exceptional bargains.
All goods carried will be 'sold at actual cost, with the
exception of the grocery stock, which must be kept up.
We have a line of hardware, work clothes, auto
tires, shoes in endless variety, as well as rubber goods,
and in fact all the stock which we are carrying, which
includes some Reo cars and Rumley separators and
