DOVEY & SON Would respectfully call Hie attention of TIIE FARMERS OF CASS COUNT Tj who contemplate purrhaidng w-O-oisrs, to the justly celebrated STUDEBAKER WAGON, believing it to be just the one and the one which gives UNIVERSAL SATISFACTION BECAUSE : FIRST. It is made of the i"t selected l!It ANA TIMBER, the sunic being cut at the proper season of the year, piled under sheds, properly dated, and al lowed to remain there from 3 to 5 years. SECOND. The wood-work, thoroughly seasonedi is shaped by the latest improved machinery, and put together by the BEST WAGON" MECHANICS IN TIIE WORLD. THIRD, tt ia the best ironed and painted wag on in the market. FOURTH. The thimble-skeins are made cf select iron, and weigh from 4 to 'J3 pounds per set more than any others made and therefore do not break. FIFTH. The Skein3 are set by patent Skein-setters, thereby making a perfect running wagon. SIXTH. It in the only wagon in which tho SLOPE-SHOULDER SPOKE is used, hence they hare the best wheel which is actually the foundation of tho wagon and should bo carefully examined by PERNOXH PI ItCliAMf X. SEVENTH. It is sold only by responsible parties, and every wagon warranted to give entire satisfaction. EIGHTH. Teamsters will tell you it is tho best wagon on the road. NINTH. The Studebaker Brothers arc practical workmen, attend to their busines9 personally and do not entrust it to the Foremen, as i generally the case in large Factories hence tho su periority of their work over all others. TENTH. And combining all the above resons in ONE ft is the BEiT wagon when NEW and GOOD when OLD. Call and examine before purchasing elsewhere. E. O. DOVEY & SOX.
