Apples
in Mid-Winter
ALONG about the middle of Decem
ber or the first of January apples
o cost epiite a bit more than they do
now. The price keeps ci"C UP from
then on. Sometimes it is a difficult matter
to obtain cootl apples in tho early sprinu at
any price. To be sure of a supply all win
tor it is a first-rate plan to lay in as many
lmvMc n vmi will want. now. Put them in
gold storage with us. You may send for a
box as often as you wish. Our cost for
stoniKe for small quantities for the season is
only 25 cents a box. Wc make lower
rates for larue quantities. The cost of
storaiTe is a ureat deal cheaper than paying
the high winter prices. Then too, you are
sure of netting your apples when you want
thorn. Wc are prepared to fundle any
number of boxes.
