PREPARING FOR
IT,. A BIG BUSINESS
J. w. Moore Going After Bus
iness This Year Harder
Than Ever Before

j.. w: Moore returned on
Thursday of last week from the
Twin Cities where he went ab-
out ten days before to attend a
convention Of the implement
dealers of the Northwest. He
also visited the whosale houses
with which he does business and
made arrangements for the next
seasons business. After hear
ing what the speakers said at
the convention and the advice
the wholesale men gave him, he
came home with a determination
to go after things in a way to
surprise everybody. The first
thing he did after returning was
to enter into contract with The
Tribune for $3.50 worth of ad-
vertising space to be used dur
ing the season. and since then
has been fixing up his implement
sheds for the reception of the
many carloads Of goods which
will reach here a few weeks.
Among other things he will
this year handle a cream
separator to which is attached a
one and a half horse power
gasolene engine, a sample of
which will be here in his first
shipment. The outfit will retail
at about $125 and is the handiest
thing ever got together for the
benefit of the farmer, John says.
He will have at least one Big
Four gas tractor on the ground
here for immediate delivery in
case of sale, and expects to doa
big business with this engine.
He sold five tractors last
summer in the face of the hard:
times, and there is no reason
why he should not double the
sales this year.. =.
