STINSON'S CLEARANCE SALE! notice a steady increase in business TU"E have just taken our Inventory and find everything satisfactory. We can Irom year to year, which is certainly gratifying. For this we thank the people of this community and surround ing country. Gradually we are learning the lessons we were taught at our mother's knee: "That in unity there is strength." How would property in Dakota County advance in price if each and every one of us sent our dollars to another state, thus impoverishing our own county and building up some foreign corporation, who does not pay taxes and who does not help support Our schools and our churches. The answer invariably would be; with no towns and no Rural Mail Delivery, all farm property would decline. Does not it stem then to be the side of reason from a financial standpoint to buy from your home merchant, when you are able, nine times out of ten, to buy fully as cheap, after deducting freight. Your home merchant is e'.ways anxious to please you, and when you receive anything from him that is not satisfactory, he is more than anxious to exchange with you or give your money back, without expense to you.
