There is no building big enough to hold this stock and we have to cut it down. Anything you can use, it will pay you to try us first. We want to cut the stock down low enough to get into the Harness Shop. It’s easier to move money than merchandise. All those working for the Ford car want to get up and dust now because it will soon be over.

The Drug Stores of O’Neill offered the agent Vaccine at 6c a dose less than he could buy it by the ton from the Govern ment. But he said it was no good. Yet one of the best farmers in the North country got vaccine from the agent at 18c per dose for eight head. The next day six were dead. This talk of getting anything cheap from the government don’t go down far with men who know. Heavy Weight, Light or Dark Colors, Pretty Patterns Flan- Oft 7E nelette, 10 yards for .

Any time any farmer or hayroan or any one else who is a good fellow, can run an ad for sale or exchange in my ad free of charge and my ads go farther than any ad in O’Neill. The old timers who fought high taxes are gone. If the young men do not wake up pretty soon we will be taxed out of the county. Anyone who gets $12.00 per day from the farmers can afford to do something. Any business man in O’Neill would be glad to do the things for nothing which the agent gets $3600.00 for doing.

DOC The agent says himself the farmers are capable of running their own affairs. So why should we pay him $3600. 3600 Dollars is a lot of money for to charge for writing letters for the farmers. I will do what he is donig for the farmers free of charge. The state pays him $1200 and that’s all ht is supposed to get. The county treasurer only gets $2000 and it costs him pretty near that much to pay his bonds. Anytime any far mer or anyone else has something to sell they can run their exchanges in my ads free of charge. Any time they want any letters written or vaccine ordered I will do it for them for nothing. There are only 300 work ing days in the year and providing he worked half that time for tne farmers it would figure a salary of $24.00 per day. If the farmers gave me $3600 a year I will earn it. I would go up on the reservation and steal fat cattle for them for $3600 a year. I would not print what I would do for a farmer for $3600 a year. 1 would shoot Lloyd George for 36c. I don’t think the agent has any kick coming. He has been paid ten times over for what he done for the farmers. He calls visiting farmers homes work. I suppose it is hard work to go out and visit a farmer and eat chicken and pies and cakes and butter, eggs, tur keys, fresh pork with dumplings, drinn nice fresh milk, eat big slices of home made bread. This is sure hard work. I wish I had a job like that. I wouldn’t want any salary at all. All I would want is invita tions. Apples, / OCp per dozen .

How much did it cost per day for the county and state to keep the agent here last year? There are 365 days in the year. Subtract 72 holidays and 52 Sundays and say only half the time was spent on his house, would leave maybe 150 days he worked. Divide $3600 by 150 working days shows he was drawing $24.00 per day for eating the farmers chickens. Last year wher\ I wanted to sell my store to the Farmers Union, he printed a piece in the paper. He says: The farmers should not go into the merchantile business as the goods get old and the turnover is slow and there is really no money to be made. That what the farmers need is an Elevator. I suppose if I would give him a good size tip we might have changed hi» views. But when he found out there was no tips coming ——mmmmmmmmmmm——■—' u ■ n he fought it out and I did not sell the store. But the value of the merchandise has in creased enough to buy an elevator. All week long I have been getting letters from all over the state from poor devils ’ who have been cruhsed out of business by the same kind of stuff they are now trying to put over in O’Neill. I know every farmer in Holt County and outside of one or two there is none who wants to see this kind of work. Every man who knows any thing knows that every one else must work for a living and that we all can’t be farmers. Everyman can not make a living on the farm. It takes a farmer to farm and a Jeweler to fix watches. When you ask the clerks for merchandise and they tell you we are out, ask for me. It s easier for a clerk to tell you out than it is to go and get it for you. Charlie Stout says he can get you vaccine for five per cent less than the Government price in ton lots. 16 Ounce Bottles of Howells Best Catsup . ddC 10 Pounds of the Best Rice
