Rotten Cotton
we trust, has had its day. In
spite of all the good things we
have, some of us will hollow
“hard times.” This has to be.
It always was, and always
will be. “Variety is the Bpice
of life.” There’s various peo
ple in this old world of ours,
and to go further, there's var
ious flours on our market.
There’s various ingredients in
some of it, too, to lessen the
cost. It will tell on the con
sumer after awhile. Act wise,
try our Pansy Brand Flour,
fresh from the mills. It’s
cheap now. The price of
brendstuff in general has
dropped 20 per cent, or more
in the last two weeks. We
never turn off a barter in the
chicken and egg line. Butter,
too, at this writing, is in de
mand. We’ve added a few
hundred dollars in the dry
goods, shoes, etc. line. We
bargained for the best stuff
c'irect from the weavers. We
are not able to give it away,
neither can we exist long by
selling at cost. We meet any
and all prices. Bring us your
barter. We are great swap
