A Correction.

In last weeks paper, in regard
to the flour that Is being sold
through the Farmers Union
Warehouse, it was stated that
it was being sold from the ware
house cheaper than in the local
market. Merchants of the town
state that this is an error, that
the same grade of flour can be
sold by them at the same price.
This correction is made because
the statement of last week was
printed with the understanding
that the flour being handled
through the warehouse was the
same grade as that sold in the
local market.
