A0i DlOChs
Work has been resumed at the

"A new machine has been receiv.

manufacture OF what is known
as the continuous hollow circular
block for silo building. The
blocks are cast with a perfect air
space between them and are re-
lnforced and held together with
steel ties from inside to outside

having no waste of ensilage and
is proof against all danger of
freezlpg, in consequence of the
continuous hollow space bet ween
the inside and outside blocks.
Fhe company has orders for
three of these silos already and
as their advantages become
known there is no question but
that this concrete block silO with
continuous hollow space will be
in great demand.

Clothing company opened up their big
new store they stocked up for one of
the best seasons business ever
known in this country. Mr.. Grow had
visited all of the large clothing and
gents furnishing manufacturing
houses of the east and ordered the
best and most up-to date stock ever
shipped to the northwest. Now, the
surplus money which the merchant
and farmer depended upon lies on the
ground and buried under the snow,
including hundreds Of thousands at
dollars worth Of flax and wheat that
will not be threshed until spring.
Mr.. Grow does not propose to car
~ over his stock another year and as
a result announces a one-fourth OF
sale which includes every article in
his store. This means. that you are
able to purchase 81 90 worth Of
goods for Is cents, and every article
you buy is guaranteed to be just as
represented. Curing the many years
that Mr.. Grow was in business in this
city the buying public learned that he
sells nothing but high class goods and
his line purchased last summer was
chosen with special care, owing to
the fact that in again engaging in
business he desired to induce his old
friends and customers 10 come back
to him, and by giving extraordinary
values he knew he would get them /.
Now these values will he sold al one
fourth off and without question this
sale is one of the greatest bargain of,
ferings ever made by any merchant
in the city.
