SUBSCRIPTION RATES
Feed is expensive nowadays. Every possible
ounce of it must be converted into beef or milk or
working energy for the teams.
Stock lacking the protection of a good barn con­
sumes most of their feed in fighting the cold—or
lacking the cool refuge of a properly insulated barn
during the heat of summer, becomes indisposed and
loses weight.
Feed converted into animal heat doesn’t make
beef or milk or money.
The essentials of a good barn are good materials,
proper ventilation, sanitation and insulation.
Let us figure with you. It’s our business. We
know how. There is no obligation to buy.
We have a number of different designs to choose
from and will consider it a favor in being able to
quote you prices.

Y OU can seldom determine the real value of
a shoe by its appearance. Merchants, themselves,
are often deceived and cannot be certain as to what the
shoe is actually worth unless it is cut up to see how it is
made.
Nothing equals LEATHER for making good shoes.
Many substitutes for leather are often used — where they
cannot be seen — because they are cheaper than leather.
But you may be assured of honest leather-built shoes,
correct styles, and all-around satisfaction by purchasing
The Friedman-Shelby All-Leather Shoe
In the "All-Leather” line you will find shoes at every price, of
every style, for any purpose—the various brands included are
“Atlantic” shoes for men; - Pacific” shoes for women, ’ Red Goose
shoes for children; and “Honesty’’ heavy work shoes. ALL­
