Building Dallas, Oregon CP i i m m m to GREATEST STOCK OF MERCHANDISE IN WESTERN OREGON To give you an idea of the size of our store, we give the following comparison: If all the stocks of groceries, hardware, drygoods and furniture in the city of Dallas were combined our stock would more than cover. If the live floors of our store were put on one floor, it would cover a space 40 feet wide and 820 feet long, or more than as long as two blocks in the city of Dallas. To buy for a store of this size, we must buy in enormous quantities. We buy direct from the factories and in such large quantities that we get the lowest jobbers' prices. Therefore we can sell for what our competitors pay, and still make our profit. We advertise no prices, but guaran tee to duplicate any prices given by our competi tors. Don't forget our great SATURDAY SUR PRISE SALES. They mean dollars to you every time you come. Walter L.
