would turn Rex Beach green with
envy. Mr.. Dow is well acquainted

at each entrance to get inside and
take advantage of the ream of the
offerings presented in the establish
ments regular semi-annual cleanup

at the beginning for they found the
goods included in this sale all cream"

crowds kept croWding in and although
the clerical force had been practically
doubled in anticipation of the rush
the closing hour found the store we'll
filled With people who had to be
waited on after the shades were
drawn. "From every standpoint the
opening was q success said Adver-
Using Manager S. H. Youens last
evening. From a standpoint of the
number of sales made in one day we
set a new RECORD for the store yester-
day. Seventy five per cent of the

prosperity note that is well worth
considering.'
The sale will be continued for bout
two weeks and will end with the usual
great dollar-day sacrifice.

MILK YIELDS MORE THAN GRAIN.
H. S. Curtis, of PaIouse, Shifts From
Wheat Growing to Dairying.

Palouse.-Curtis, one of the most ex-
tensive farmers in the Cedar Creek
district, north of Palouse. who has re-
Gently been shifting his activities from
wheat farming to stock raising, has re-
turned from North Yakima, where he
purchased a thoroughbred Holsteln
bull, five years of age, said to be the
best that could be purchased in the
valley.
Mr.. Curtis. has go cattle on his farm
and has 100-ton silo, using ensilage
as a winter feed. He is milking FL
COWS and shipping the milk on the
Spokane & Inland to Spokane. He says
that his monthly milk checks have av-
eraged $3.50 during the winter.
There has been sudden realization
among the farmers in the Palouse dis
trict during the last few months that
dairying and stock raising are much
more profitable than wheat growing,
and as a result the demand for dairy
COWS is far in excess of the supply,
and farmers are securing the stock
districts in this state and Oregon in
search of the thoroughbred animals to
form the nucleus for dairy herds.
