tory as Extensive Dealers in Produce, Poultry and
Eggs.
----------
This is one o f the institutions that
has materially aided in the develop
ment o f this section o f the state and
has especially been instrumental in
aiding the progress o f diversified
farming in the community.
They
furnish the farmer with a most ad
vantageous market for produce,
poultry and eggs that is o f great
economical value to the public.
Their prices are far more favor
able than would be secured by the
people if they had to ship elsewhere
for it is a well-known fact that this
house pays the top o f the market at
all times.
One o f the recognized principles
o f farming along scientific lines to
day is the raising o f poultry and
livestock. It is because o f the ex
cellent service and the desirable
market afforded by these well-
known dealers that this feature is
receiving more attention from the
farmer today and progress along
this line is particularly noticeable
in this community where the produ
cer knows that he will receive the
highest price for produce, poultry
and eggs.
Another feature o f the satisfac
tory service o f this popular house
is the courtesy and accommodation
which marks their dealings with the
producer.
This establishment is under the
direction o f conscientious and com
petent business men and they have
associated with them only such as
sistants as can be depended upon to
render the most courteous service
and the most efficient.
They are
always ready and willing to give you
.he latest quotations and those wish
ing to market their produce to the
best advantage will do well to get in
touch with this well-known house.
We are pleased to compliment them
and to give them in this review the
prominent position that their pro-
• resave and reliable policies have
