«Whe Day light Store’’ ———S——o—————————————— OUR NEW FALL Amer ARE YOU PREPARING FOR WINTER? We Have Not Advanced Our Prices on Building Material a $1.00 Because of the European War. In fact we were never in better condi- tion to give you bargain prices on build- | ing material. We have been shipping from our BIG MILL at Hart, Louisiana, to our Butler yard several car loads of choice Long Leaf Yellow Pine Lumber ‘that is manufactured especially for barns, sheds and out-buildings. You should be preparing for win- ter. Feed will be high, and if your stock is well protected from the cold winter rains and snow it will cut your feed bill almost in two, and-save you ten times the cost of the building. _.We just unloaded a car load of our rubber roof- ing. This roofing is made of long fibered felt, thor- oughly. saturated with the best roofing cement pro- curable. This roofing requires no painting when laid. In fact the extra heavy coating makes it pos- sible for it to go without attention for years. This roofing is 36. inches wide, and the roll con- tains 108 square feet. We also furnish, free of charge, sufficient nails, caps and cement for the laps. By buying in such large quantities we are | able to sell this roofing at a very low price, and it is especially adapted for use on all flat roofs, chicken houses, hog houses, porches and out-buildings of all kinds. ; We have Galvanized Corrugated Iron in all the lengths it is made in, AND IT IS FULL WEIGHT; no short measure in our iron—we weigh it over our scales when we receive it and we see that it comes up to the standard weight, therefore our customers get full value for their money when buying iron of us. You can cover your buildings for $3.00 per 100 square feet with our Ex *A* Red Cedar Shingles.

He left seven children and many friends to mourn his departure. The Fair. The tenth annual Bates County Fair has gone into history. The as- sociation had to do with the wettest . week known here for years. It rain- ed every day, but in spite of- such a handicap the fair was really a suc- cess. While the crowds were not record breaking, they were lafge for the kind of weather and roads the | people had to face. The exhibits were of a high order, but not nearly so numerous as they would have been under more favor- able weather. The association is in yood hands, ¢ and if every reasonable expectation could have been realized it would have put the association on a better footing financially. Having done so well under such adverse circumstan- ces none should become discouraged; and the general public will rally to the support of. the association next year. A full report of the exhibits and ribbons won is impossible this week, but we will try to have it next week, or soeogn asthe secretary can fur- nish if.

It was the last dinner of Miss Gladys, Floyd and Clarence before leaving for Columbia and the elegant dinner was appreciat- ed and enjoyed. Mrs. Warnock said she had seen the children grow from infancy to maturity right by her and she wanted to give them their last meal in Butler. It was a thoughtful, tender courtesy. The Springfield Leader says, al- luding to the Civil War: ‘Missouri was the scene of terrors that equaled anything Belgium has suffered. Mis- souri, being somewhat divided in its sympathies, suffered considerably from the ravages of the war until the Union side drove the Southern side from the state. In order to do this the famous order No. 11 was issued. This provided for burning all the propérty in several counties in West- ern Missouri. These counties were Southern in sentiment, and the torch drove the inhabitants from the State.” Floyd W. Atkeson came home from Martin City where he ‘had superin- tended the bottling department in the Koche Dairy during vacation, and has returned tothe College of Agri- culture in the University. His broth- er, Wendell, formerly an employe of this office has entered the school of Journalism in the University, and Clarence has entered the High School in Columbia. So that. W. O. finds himself alone, but he will remain here and look after business as usual. We understand Miss Gladys will esp house for the boys in Colum- ia. Our Business is increasing daily THERE IS A REASON F. A. Taylor the enterprising young auctioneer who lives.in southwest Shawnee was in Tuesday and made usa pleasantcall.
