New Year Greeting.

To our friends and patrons in Adair
and adjoining Counties.
We certainly feel very grateful in
deed to our many friends and patrons
in Adair and adjoining counties who
have contributed so largely by their
liberal patronage and words of praise
to the wonderful success of our consoli
dated business in the past year, and
want to thank you, one and all through
the good old reliable Adair County
News which we feel and know has been
largely instrumental with its popularity
and large circulation in enabling US to
do the enormous amount of business
which has far acceeded our most san
gum expectation.
While The T. w. Buchanan Hardware
and Implement Co., and the Lyon Bug
gy Co, have received very liberal
patronage in this territory for several
years past, and while we felt confident

solidated and Incorporated with in
creased capital stock, to The Buchanan,
Lyon Co., Wholesale and Retail, would
enable US to buy in larger quantities,
ship in carload lots, thereby saving our
customers money on our entire line.

years business for the new Company,
that it has been a success far beyond
our most sanguine hopes or expectation,
which give us increased courage and de-
termination to begin the new year 1910
determined to make it a banner year.
We have made large contracts for
every line of goods we handle in antici-
patton of the already heavy advances
on every thing made from leather, iron
or wood with still larger advances pre-
dlcted by all the leading Manufacturers
In the country owing to the extremely
high price prevailing in new material.
notwithstanding these heavy ad-
vances with the advance contracts we
have made, it will enable us to sell our
customers and friends the coming sea-
son at practically old prices and in a
number items at reduced prices. As
quite number of our friends among
the retail merchants throughout our
territory know we have been in posi-
ton for some time past, saved them not
only freight, but considerably in the
price also on such lines as Collar pads,
collars, wagons, harness, buggy harness,
saddles &C.. over prices charged by
manufacturers and Jobbers in the cities.
1t affords US great deal of pleasure
to announce to our old customers among
the retail merchants, and we hope
large number OF. new ones that we will
be in position the coming season to save
them freight also in most cases consid-
cradle in price on anything in the inn
