MORE GOOD ACTIVE SALESMEN WANTED OREGON NURSERY COMPANY Orenco, Oregon “Plant Dependable Trees” Department A CORRESPONDENCE The last of the fruit bloom, the winter apples, are now out and fruit men are anxiously awaiting the pas sing of the next week or ten days until danger from frost Is over. Smudge pots in the big orchards are in readiness in case of ’emergency and many owners are closely watch ing their thermometers to be on guard. The outlook in the apple crop so far is good and hopes are that the project will yield as large a crop of the fruit as the year 1919. of ---and in low price, quality is maintained During the thirty-five years that this company has been designing and tailoring high grade, made-to-mea sure clothes, whenever it came io a choice between the maintenance of quality and the cheapening of our product, Kahn quality has never suf- feted—the Kahn standard has never been lowered. On the other hand, by creating through Kahn quality a great de- ntand for our clothes, we have nat- urally been enabled to produce in great volume, and that single advant age has been sufficient to keep the price of Kahn Clothes always within the reach of gentlemen of moderate means and of careful buying habits, The soundness of this policy has proved out in practice—today the Kahn Tailoring Company is the world’s largest producer of fine, tail- ored-to-measure clothes. Such exclusiveness of design, such careful hand tailoring, such all-wool purity of materials and such perfec- ticn of fit apparently Justify prices far in excess of anything that Khan dealers will ever ask you to pay. Particularly at this time the sur prising economy of Kahn clothes is an unanswerable argument, and I am ready to measure you for perfect fit ting clothes of quality. J. M.
