g g ‘ «g ■L1!! " * 1' The Sherman County Harvest. To the Trading Public of Sherman county I wish to thank all those who have given me a share of their pat ronage since my purchase of the Sherman Trading Co. in Moro. I want to earn the good will and esteem of everybody in Sherman county, not simply by being a “good fellow,” but by giving every one a chance to buy goods at right prices. To do this I wish to announce right here that this is a cash store and will be run on cash principles. It is not one of the kind that takes the money from one and sells another on time, both at the same price. Goods bought at invoice from the Sherman Trading Co. are now on sale at as low discounts as the goods will stand. These discounts are worth to you five and ten per cent and even better on some goods. It is evident that it would take considerable effort to re-mark these goods, hence selling them by discount. But new goods purchased will be marked and sold at as low figures as similar goods may be obtained, not only in Sherman county, but in the Willamette valley as well. f Beside discounts as above • I have a large I number of articles which I • am going to sell for* cost. They are goods which I will not carry in regu lar stock.' In conclusion 1 want to say to anyone wishing, to take advantage of the prices set by my store that you can do so on a 30 or 60 day basis by calling and making arrangement W . F.
