Time to get out into the fields! There's a busy season ahead for all of us. Now let's think a little about work clothes. When your sliirts and overalls are roomy and comfortable when you can bend, stoop and reach, without feeling least restraint then work is easier to do. And when you know that no matter how rough you may use your work clothes, they will "stand up" and take punishment day after day without ripping or tearing then you're equipped for work that isn't half so hard as if you are not properly dressed. firlerco Work Shirts and Overalls We recommend these to you. They're husky-built, well-made, comfortable fitting garments that you need. There's lets of room for pulling and stretching. Every point of strain is re-inforced to give strength. . Let us show you why they'll wear, and give comfort - and why the price is just what you'll like to pay. Come here for your work clothes. We will sell you the kind that sati&fy. Work Shirts, $ .96 to $1.25 . Overalls, $1.25 to $1.75 Murdock Mercantile Co. Murdock, Nebraska returned to the ranch, where they are looking after their cattle inter ests. Rev. and Mrs. A.
