We always make a good substantial reduction by the dozen or case, as the expense of handling is much less. Ask us for the price on a case of the brand of Corn, Tomatoes, Peas, or String Beans, that you are using, and see how much mon ey you can save by buying by the case or dozen. We will make up cases of mixed canned goods giving you the case price. I I WILSON BROTHERS & COMPANY , ky TELEPHONE tv EIGHT OH THE MIHOTE No tim wasted in wait ing for rigs from the Ontario Livery.
