leader in her d.15 just as it is now. It doesn't give off smoke,
soot or gases that might smell up rooms. It gives more heat
with bright steady flame that won't creep up to scorch piel,
cakes. And ITARL OIL is jmreh all burns no wast I

dlgje IhewIleft (So
to our friends and
NEIGHBORS of Morrow County:
After 12 years of pleasant business relations with
you it is not easy to announce our retirement from the
commercial life of the county. Nevertheless, it is an
obligation that must be met and we wish to tell you that
the business of the Jackson Implement Company has
been sold to Mr. Mervin Leonard of Walla Walla, Wash.,
who assumed the management on February 1 .
It is not the intention of the Jackson family to leave
Morrow county. We have other interests to claim our
time and we hope to be counted among you for many
years to come. This is the land of opportunity and it is
our desire to participate in the development of the rich
agricultural possibilities.
In parting, let us speak a word in behalf of our suc
cessor. You will find him fully qualified to carry on the
International sales and service as he comes from a man
agerial position with one of the larger International
houses of the Inland Empire. Your continued patronage
will be deeply appreciated.
Sincerely yours,
JACKSON IMPLEMENT CO
