Sit
yer & Sons SPiano tfactoriei
Has fouj gigantic plants In ens eoTsrlng,
with sectrlc power plant and lumber yards
23 acres of ground. vThey are locatad In
the town of Sieger, ill., 29 mile from Chi
cago, and are supplied with lumber from
the mills of Messrs Steger k Sons', who
own thirty thousand acres of virgin forest
located in the state ef Wisconsin. ... rv ;
These facts are cited to give you a basis
from wh'cH to reason. With so enormous
a plant, capacity 20,000 pianos per year,
with vast purchases of supplies for spot
cash, with the neccessary capital to buy the
best of miiierlal and the best of workman
ship, the prospective buyer needs no furth
argument to prove that Steger & Sons are
In a position to give greater values for the
money than any other piano establishment
ment In the world.
It takes great execute aqillty to manage
such a gigantic factory successfully and af
ter the pianos are built the great problem Is
how to market them with the least expense
possible. ; ' ' ,
The resourcefulness of Mr. Steger was
equal to the' occasion. Backed by $2,000,-
000 capital,' he threw open the doors of the
"Bank of Steger," placing credit and capi
tal in the hands of a network of Pacific
Coast agencies on the Ingenious plan of
monthly payments from dealer and custom
ers, (a pure! Steger inuovatlon) in place
of long time' given to firms, who represent
state agencies, thus placing the small deal
er on equal footing with the larger dealers.
The wholesale prices to dealers are bas
ed not on their capital or their individual
business, but on the distribution of 10,000
pianos yearly for the states mentioned a-bove.
- It Is doubtful whether the three larrest
piano houses on the coast market this
many pianos during the year.
Don't you see that Mr. Steger has solved
the problem of marketing the finished pro
duct of the largest piano factories in the
world with the lesst possible expense to the
consumer?
. This Is an age of keen business competi
tion and ilvalry, and the successful mer
chant is he who Incurs the least expense in
marketing his goods.
Messrs. Steger & Sons, with their Im
mense capital have solved this problem for
their representatives.
Mm. J. V. Steger, starting life as a 'me
chanic, without a dollar, stands the most
unique figure In the world today. The
wisest in pisnodom wonder wonder what
will be the next move of this mighty finan
cier for no oue can circumvent him.
Inside or out, the better the light, the'
better the Steger piano shows up,, for from
top to bottom the material used is the best
money can buy. ,

One of the smoothest skinners that
has ever struck Lexington tarried
with us for several weeks. He travel
ed under the name of H. P. Prowty,
while here, and probably would have
been in town yet had not one of, our
business men tumbled to his game
and gave him a good trouncing. Lex
ington has no use or room for swind
lers or dead beats. Other towns will
do well to look out for him.
