N A ] Montgomery W ard & Co. The Mid-Winter Special Sale by Mail for 1919 begins Wednesday, January 1st. The 120-page book of special bargams——about a thousand in number—should be dellv- ered in your home by that time. In the selection of mer- chandise for the sale we tried to be partlcu]arly careful both regarding quality and prices. We knew it would have to be a bargain book, but more than that,'the goods must come up fully to the standing agreement we have with our customers—satisfaction guaranteed or your money back. Purchases for this sale were niade long in advance, and in every case we have given the customer the benefit we were able to derive from our buving early in large quantities. It was the plan to have every one of our customers receive this Sale _. Book. However, the United States Governments through the War In- dustries Board asked for curtail- ment in the use of p@pér, ‘and to -meet with that regulation we have been compelled tolimit ,the number of Sale Books issued. Here and there may be cases where : some of our customers do not re- - ceive this January-February Sale List. We have reserved some to send to such of our friends as may Chicago ; Kansas City i , machmery Fort Worth Please Write the House Nearest You not have received their copy and are writing us for one. Of course, we shall be very glad tosend you one - at your address immediately under those circumstances, if you will- kindly write as early as possible so that your request reaches us before they are exhausted. Meanwhile, don’t wait; get at these bargains as early as posgible. If your book has not arrived, do not hesitate to Special Sale is so full of bargains that we do not want any one who has dealt with us to miss it; - All lines are included, from ladies’ coats and dry goods, groceries, farniture, and household equip- ment, to gasoline engines and farm Portland, Ore, -~ ask your nelghbors for theirs; this The clipping Mr. Innes sends gives editorially one of those ‘clever, lying. - } defenses of the packers evidently di- | rect from packing trust headquarters. It is an attempt to discredit the famous investigation made by -the. federal trade. commission. Readers .of the Leader will recall that not léng ago the packers called in a number of edi- 74 3 tors of so-called farm papers to ar- S ° range the details of a new defense ‘ 1.campaign. The Leader has carried the 4 testimeony of the owner of Successful i Farming, for_instance, at this meet- ing that he would do what he could to restore -packing trust reputation. The Farmer and Breeder must- have been £ in this gathering or very near, ' }‘k It is hardly necesfiary to publish a g.‘ list of such traitorous papers, for they FoB give themselves away, and then, too, % their number, like the number -of th- - evil spirits, is legion. If they do not &1 carry special interest propaganda di- % rect, they fail to state things that are: i happening in the interest of the farm- ' ers and they fill up with stories of how ‘profitable farming is. ‘This same issue of the Farmer and Breeder which Mr. Innes refers to has a story purporting to show that hog raising is more prof- 4 itable than banking if the farmer is § only industrious and intelligent. No | other line of trade would tolerate this kind of drivel in its trade paper, and farmers can take it as a sign that | what pretends'to be a trade paper for them is a kept sheet. e FROM AN OREGON FARMER . Eugene, Ore. Editor Nonpartlsan Leader: ~ For some weeks, -since - receiving from your national secretary a bundle. of hterature containing copies of your . h? e intended becoming a subscnber I/have held: off thinking I might be- come’a member of the League and get it as part of the fruits of membership. Times are hard with me and $16 seems hard to lay up after living, or rather existing, costs are met, but my * heart is"and hag‘been for years in ¢ true accord with lines of work sucl }\ s _as the League is domg To my mind" ' yéur organization is one of the best. }\ I like its readiness to co-opérate in ! what other leaders are doing with and through other organizations: with the S same end-—industrial emancipation— “in view. - 4 Just at thls time 1t is a wise | being_ taken to. co-operate with t ;| Chicago Federation of Labor. I thmk Mr. Nockels head and shoulders above Mr. Gompers m wise attacks upon the enemy. All that/I can now do is to sub- scribe for the national organ of the League to the end that I may keep'in f: touch -with what is being done.
