Plans and methods rela- | tive to the operation of Omaha's hay | market were discussed. This was char- acterized as a very successful meeting, since hay men and the club’'s committee are in accord on all points, and though no details are yet given out it is con- | fidently expected that Omaha will get itself on the map as a real hay market | before fall. PRICE OF GOOD BUTTER HAS MOVED UP AGAIN Best creamery butter, at wholesale, or to the trade, either in pound cartons, or In tubs, is selling at 3 and the No. 2 grade at 33 cents per pound. This is an advance of 3 cents per pound since Feb- ruary 1 In New York City, the advance In but- ter prices has been ter than in Omaha. February 1, there the best creamery sold at 30%, ‘wholesale, while now it has gone to 38 cents per pound. Owing to the scarcity of cream, or but- ter fat, creamery men are not anticipat- ing much lower prices before May 1, at which time the cows will get out onto grass and the output of milk and cream will be much greater. After that time it is asserted that it is very probable that prices will take considerable of a drop. It takes but a minute of time to save dollars when you read The Bee Want Ad eolumns. ‘Good-bye Dyspepsia No More Gurgly Brash, “Lump of Lead,” Bad Digestion, Heartburn or Stomach Troubles.

Already the factory is flooded with orders for this wonderfully popular model. In a word, the ‘‘Six-46'’ is an eminently safe auto- mobile investment. It is a good car—not merely because we say so— but because its owners have conclusively estab- lished this goodness in the gruelling tests of more than a year’s actual road work. Here, then, is one substantial reason for the over- whelming demand which the ‘‘Six-46’' enjoys. And there is another—a basic reason which has made this record possible. Time and time again, we have stated our policy of serupulously avoiding any expression in Paige advertising which might savor of exaggeration or misrepresentation. We make an honest pro- duct and we propose to sell it in an honest way. But, facts are facts, and we boldly and fearlessly claim that the Paige Fairfield ‘‘S8ix-46’' repre- sents more actual dollar-for-dollar value than any other motor car on the market. If this appears to be a broad statement we invite you to check us up by inspecting the car, rid- ing in it, and conducting any comparative in- vestigation which you may care to make, Despite the fact that our manufacturing facilities have been tripled, we are facing an immediate shortage of Fairfields, and the spring retail season is only a few weeks off. Just stop for a minute and consider the significance of the statement when we tell you that, so far in 1916, we have marketed more seven passen- ger cars than any othér manufacturer in our price class. Also, ponder over the fact that this month we shall ship approximately 25 solid train loads of the Fairfield model exclusively. Last year, you will remember, there was a long Paige ‘‘waiting list.”’ Hundreds of people delayed their purchases until the last minute—and were then compelled to accept sixty and ninety days delivery—or com- promise on a ‘‘second best.”’ So, be fair to yourself. Protect your own good in- terests. Go to the Paige dealer—place a cash deposit in his hands—and make sure that you will receive the car of your choice. Understand, we do not claim to make the only good motor car, nor do we ask you to believe that our Fairfield is the best American make. But we do most emphatically insist that the ‘‘Six- 46"’ offers a greater value for its price—$1,295 —than any other antomobile produced in this country or abroad. Furthermore, you will heartily agree with us if you will permit the Paige Dealer to give you one thorough demonstration—just one. It is by no means our purpose to ‘‘stampede’’ motor car buyers into early or ill-advised purchases, but we know that a shortage is coming and of- fer this information in a sincerely helpful spirit. And now let us say a word about the car itself. First and foremost, we want to remind you that the Paige Fairfield ‘‘Six-46’’ is a tried and proven success, But, please don’t forget—you must act quickly. Get your order in now—before it is too late.
