indicating confidence in our town, how

indicating confidence in our town, how
in the world can We expect outside peo-
pie to have any confidence in the place.
A town to have good business, must
be held in confidence by the trading
community, and If we work in way
that tends to destroy that confidence,
we certainly destroy our business. Our
dealers sell goods as cheap as can be
sold anywhere on legitimate living
profit, and it is certainly to our own
best interest to patronize them.
Z. Barnes & Co, the enterprising ma
chine dealer on Benson Street, are out
this spring with a full line of first-class
farming implements. They have been
very careful in selecting their goods,
aiming to get only those which have
been thoroughly tested and found per-
fectly satisfactory. Among the number
of machines they handle, we notice the
following: The Van Brunt, Prairie
City. Badger, Hoosier and Union seed
ers; the Beloit and Surprise plows;
Conqueror cultivators; John Dodd
rakes, and buggies. carriages and
wagons of every description. Farmers,
if you want anything in the line of
farming tools, come and talk to E.
Barnes & Co. before buying.
What is the use of going away from
home to buy anything that you can
buy for the same money at homer
What is the use of going to other mills
to get your feed and flour ground when
you can get it ground at Virgin &

will deliver feed, bolted corn meal and
flour to any part of the city, or on
track at short notice. Prices are very

c.. b. & n. MATTERS. President
Traer. of the Chicago, Burlington &
Northern Railroad, was in the city the
latter part of last week, looking after
the right of way and other matters per-
tanning to the road. Congress has been
petitioned for the privilege of building
new bridge across the Mississippi for
the railroad. 1t will probably cross the
river at or near Eagle Point, in this
county, to a point near Dubuque, Iowa.
A company called the Wisconsin & iowa
Bridge Company has been organized
with capital stock of $1,000, 900 to
build it. All the stock is said to be
sold. The company is anxious to begin
work on the bridge as early as practic-
able and the necessary legal prelimin-
aries can be arranged. The c., b. & n.
have also procured by purchase and
contract, blocks of land in the center of
the city of Prairie du Chen. on which
will be erected at an early day around
house and car shop facilities. This will
be considerable OF boom for Prairie
du Cdien, as it will bring to that city
quite number of men necessary to do
the company's mechanical work, and
indirectly no small volume of business.
