FH « i n /...flRII'A UK r Thn public is hereby eaiitiotieti against a fraud that in being i in posed upon this community. It ia it well known fact, that the Empire Mills, of thin city, are manufacturing a grade of Flour much superior to that shipped hero from other points. No well known is this fact that it lias become almost impossible for our brokers and other dealers in foreign Hour to sell their goods to our mer chants. Finding they could not compete with our homo mills by an Inmost compari son of goods, they have resortod to the following fraud. The Empire Mills have printed on their sacks “Empire Mills Hii.vuu IjKAf, Columiiuh, Ga.’’ The fraudu lent brand is of same style of typo ami color of ink, “Em pkkok M i llm Nilvkh Leaf, Columiiuh, (U." and filled with an inferior grade of li >ur, By this deception they propoao to swindle tho consumer and endeavor to injure the reputation so universally enjoyed and justly deserved by our mills. Consumers, beware! When buying flour see that the oltl reliable name, “K-M-I’-I- K-E,” is on tho sacks, and take no other. th.tsi-: a Ttt A 99' H K U It I KM.
