JANUARY ASSORTMENT
SALE
WHY does people send away for Groceries?
Because we do not quote the price that we
could sell goods at, on the same conditions. They
get the cash in advance. They don’t help pav
your taxes. They show goods only on paper.
When you are in hard luck ask them for help
see what they say. But after all we are here
for business and must have it and will appreciate
your patronage, below we will quote a few
items which we will sell on the same terms as
any mailorder house. For cash.

Fred Pinckney last Tuesday took |
the road drag and went from his place
clear to Gene Miller’s farm, and then
again on Wednesday he went from
home to R. D Hendrickson's place
and the road is in just as good shape
as it was any time last summer. This
goes to show what a man and a drag
can do even in winter time. If each
farmer would do this along his place
it would not take him at least over
an hour, then every one would have a
good road to town, but as it is when
the farmers go to town it takes them
from 30 minutes to three hours longer
over such rough roads, besides the
wear and tear on your team and
wagon as well as being hard on a per
son to ride over these roads. The
carrier wishes to thank Mr. Pinckney
very much for the good it does him
when he gets to and travels on ti ls
road.
