Prices
lenient
The break has come. For some time prices
paid for your farm products have been low. Ir
is but natural for you to want lower prices on
the farm implements used in producing your
crops.
Announcement is made by
the Oliver Chilled Plow
Works o a general price re
' duction in their lines that
brings prices to the basis of
1918. They are the first to
make this reduction and are
taking the loss that the move
brings for there has been
little reduction in labor or
material as their contribu
tion in hastening a return tf
normal conditions.
This is your opportunity to
secure new, up-to-date Oliv
er quality implements that
will help you produce a full
crop, and get them at a price
in line with the reduced pric
es on your farm products.
