We have been so fairly treated by the citizens of Butler and Bates county during the last year in the way of extending us their trade. That we intend to reciprocate this year and make cheaper prices than was ever heard of in Bates county before. We hada large trade last year and while we sold goods eheap we intend to reduce the prices this year by increasing our trade. The only way that good goods can be sold cheap is a large trade and for cash. We are large shippers of the farmers products, chickens, geese, Ducks, butter and eggs and will at all times give you every cent we can for it. Aud you must always take in con- sideration the cheap price we are selling goods at. Someone may at times offer you a cent more for your produce than we if they do find out before you sell to them how they are going to sell you goods in return for it. Remember their is two ends to every string. Our basis of busi- ues will he to sell goods at the very lowest price they can possibly be sold at and pay the highest cash price for produce that we can possi- bly pay and save ourselves and if youcan make a better trade with your produce or make your cash go further at any other house than you can with us the man you trade with will starve to death.
