Our little furry Of snow three weeks
ago, which passed off almost as quickly
i as 1t came, was perhaps harbinger Of
the disastrous snow storms that have
blockaded business in some parts Of Ind.
lana, Michigan, New York and eastern
states. In many places the snow was
Il from a foot to twenty inches deep on q
level, the drifts being from three to ten
feet. We doubt If there is now parti
Gle Of snow in Dakota and the weather
during the day is simply perfect. III
To close ont the stock Of Studebakel
wagons now OH hand, I will make prices
4 for cash. that are lower than the whole
4 sale factory rate. The wagons are new
and frstrclass and have Studebaker Bros
full guarantee as to soundness. They
: will be sold cheaper than any wagons
I that have ever been sold in this country
/. and cheaper than they can be bought In
car lots at the factory. The only reason
for making these rates is to close ou1
stock on hand. They must and shall &c
soon.
