The Lowest Chicago Price OF
a Piano

Everyone in Chicago knows that the
way to secure piano at the lowest
price is to telephone, write or call on
Lyon & Healy This firm exhibits the
largest and most varied stock of pianos
in the world. Over 1000 instruments
are displayed side by side under their
roof. All of these pianos are sold at
low, fixed prices, which are the same to
everyone.
The foundation stone of Lyon &
Healy S success is to have every piano
they sell act as a missionary, that is,
be instrumental in selling many other
pianos for them.
Lyon & Healy now offer to ship
pianos to persons at a distance at pre-
,cisely the same prices they ask for the
goods in Chicago. Furthermore, they
make speciality of selecting instru-
ments for persons at distance. Skilled
pianists go over the stock and pick out
exactly the tone quality the correspon-
! dent desires. This plan works SO we'll
that Lyon & Healy's shipments to the
country are now very large.
The advantage of buying a piano
from the great Chicago music house is
self evident. There is nothing to equal
the pianos that Lyon & Healy offer at
$l5O and upwards. In the 20 great
makes that Lyon & Healy sell you will,
of course, find steinways, Webers,
krakauers, Washburns, and, in fact, all
the most desirable instruments of the
day.
Write for their new and very beauti-
full catalogue entitled "a Piano Book. I"
Address Lyon & Healy at 10 Adams
Street, Chicago.

Farm Pointers

When the corn is in the crib
And you have some leisure time
Fix your fence.
After dining on spare rib
And feeling extra prime
Fix your fence.
Keep the cows from going through
In your neighbours fields to view
The corn stalks as they grew.
Fix your fence.
When the ground is frozen hard
You won't need to brace your pcs I
So fix your fence.
Pail the slack in bout yard
Where you find it needs it most.
Fix your fence.
Begin the new year right,
Be sure the wires are tight
And try with all your might
To fix that fence.
1t will make your neighbor smile
When he sees you hard at work
On that fence.
But you'll find it worth your while,
For it never pays to shirk
Fixing fence.
So go at it with will
And don't let up until
You can say I've filled the bill
Fixing fence.

CUT UP THE BIG FARMS.
senator La Toilette Tells of Wiscon.
sins Experience.

In speaking of the immense wheat
farms In this county this morning,
Senator La Toilette said that Wiscon-
sin raised wheat until her land was
practically ruined, by the constant
drain upon the soil.
Finally the state was forced to adopt
the diversified crop policy and the
farmers began raising clover, corn,
vetch, grasses and hay and milking
cows, and today the land is replen-
ished in strength, the income from the
dairy business alone is over $4,000,
600 annually and he predicts the same
final outcome in eastern Oregon where
the large wheat farm is made to pro-
duce the same crop year after year
without cessation.
81 was amazed at the copper pro-
duction of Montana, the boasted cop
per region of the world" said Sena-
tor La Toilette to the East Oregonian
"and yet last year Wisconsin dairies
produced as much wealth as the entire
copper belt of Montana and think of
the difference in the class of country
In Wisconsin we have the small, rich
farms, the progressive country settle
ment, the country school house and
church, good country roads, thrifty
settlements which have every conven-
ience of the city combined with the

Praise for A. c. Ruby.

The Portland Oregonian says Of
A. C. Ruby's horse business m this
city; The Pendloton stockman who
has already imported $50 stations
from Europe for breeding purposes
and is about to start on trip to pur-
chase 100 more, is rendering a great
service t" the live stock industry of
the state. The importation of high
class animals means n grading up of
our horses and the infusion of blood
that will show in the build of draft
horses in this state for all time to
come. The livestock industry will
not only receive an impetus in the
number of horses raised, but a still
more important benefit from the inn
provement of the stock. Whether he
engages in the breeding Of horses,
cattle, sheep, hogs or poultry, tho
man who introduces new blood is a
public benefactor.
