excell which is very evident in this season’s showing.
It pleases ine indeed to see the number of satisfied cus
tomers that supplied their wishes w ith'Coats, Suits and
Dresses last week. And as new numbers are arriving
l
daily, there will be a strong selection for Easter week.
Styles for Spring and Summer are so different from
the garments of previous seasons that the old coat or suit
is quite passe.

There isa certain snap-a variety of vivid brilliant col
on ngs--in the new garments that gives them a certain chic
which we usually associate with Parisian Garments.
But the Palmer garment provides a better fit, repre
sents the acme uf good value and always renders satisfac
K

My suit and coat parlor is now full of chic
garments of the latest cloths and colorings-gaber
dine poplins, velours, French serges in all the
popular shades: Gold, mustard, gray, magenta,
and navy with a varied line of checks.

The Norfolk Press wants to know
why it is that the big creameries are
paying more for butter fat at O’Neill
than they are at Norfolk, when the
distance and freight rates are less
from Norfolk to Omaha and Sioux
City than from O’Neill. The Press
notes a difference of at least two
cents. In reality it is from three to
four cents and it is a fact that Nor
folk producers could ship to O’Neill,
pay the transportation rate themselves »
and still get more money for their
product than by selling locally or
shipping direct to Omaha or Sioux
City, even though the same cream
might be hauled back through their
town. The reason is that O’Neill is
located on the old site of the Garden
of Eden and has a thriving creamery
and as a result there is competition for
the cream. Cream buyers pay more
