General swapp,ng Of Hats.

More than one gentleman guest at
the Farmers Bah" Wednesday night
went home during the early morning
hours with his head barred to the icy
ozone and more than a dozen had
their domes covered with hats other
than their own There was a grand
mixup OF hats due to the crowded
condition Of the wrap rooms and, as
early as 10 O'Clock, men began
searching for their "skypieees." When
leaving time came, many, unable to
find their own, selected a similar one
rather than go home bareheaded and,
as a result, there has been a general
trading back and forth ever since,

ECKERT KNITTING co:

Makers of sweaters, knit coats, etc.
At 923 10th Ave. N, is the place of
business and it is some hive of in
dustry to drop in and look over. This
company has reputation for excep-
tionally fine quality goods at a very
low price. By buying direct from
them the middlemans profit can be
saved. The garments put out by this
concern are becoming more popular
each seasOn-the reason lies in their
practical service, convenience and
comfort Their sweaters are strictly
pure wool, hand made, and knit to fit.
They are showing the largest assort-
ment of good styles including the
ever popular and deservedly so, heavy
Jumbo" Stitch Coats at considerably
lower prices than elsewhere. The
business was opened up some five
years ago by Mr.. E. L. Eckert, presi-
dent, and O. P. Eckert, secretary of
the company, and Fred Eckert, man.
ager of the St. Paul office. Stores
are maintained at 1911 IL Nicollet
Avenue, 597 Wabasha Avenue, St.
Paul, and at the factory office at 923
10th Avenue North. The product is
one of merit, durability and pleasing
appearance and is finding great favor
among users of knit goods through
out the breadth of the Northwest and
to certain extent outside.

CLOVER LEAF CREAM
cry.

This institution is located at APO
Twentieth Avenue North. 1t is incor-
porated under the laws of Minnesota
with an authorized capitalization of
$z5O,OOO. The president of the COM
pany is Mr.. Charles A. Nelson, who
has been personally engaged in the
dairy business for thirty years. One
thing which lies very close to the
success of the institution is the fact
that Mr.. Nelson is the owner of a
group of five farms just north of the
city limits, on which three hundred
and fifty COWS are MIXED and the milk
turned into the establishment every
day. The extent of the operations of
the company may be judged when it
is known that three thousand gallons
of milk, three hundred gallons of
sweet cream and from two hundred
and fifty to three hundred gallons of
cream for churning purposes are
handled every day. Each day from
eight hundred to twelve hundred
pounds of butter come from their
churns. Hence Clover Leaf Creamery
Company butter is always absolutely
fresh. The entire mechanical plant
was installed under the supervision of
the City Health Department, and all
modern scientific precautions taken
for the protection of the public in the
manufacture of this commodity Sixty
people on the pay roll, thirty wagons,
several heavy auto trucks, fifty-six
horses take care of the delivery end.
The major portion Of the business is
with the grocer. Clarified by machin-
cry, pasteurized by machinery, stan
dardized by machinery, bottles cleaned
by machinery, filled by machinery,
capped by machinery. Economy. eff
cheney, quality, all at the maximum
conspire toward this perfect product

pany.

This business has been going for
eight years and the public has been
pleased with the service, and received
the benefit of quality goods for just
that length of time. Meats, fish and

of the line, but there are many &C
cessory features and all conspire to-
ward an unusually we'll rounded re-
tail stock for meat market. The
best quality of comb honey and ex-
tract is specially at this place, choice
porterhouse, liver, lamb chops, pork
chops, poultry, dressed or undressed,
ham, sausage, lard, pickles, and other

J. F. DVORACEK.

If you are going to use the tele-
phone, you will call on the Tri State
for North 100, or if the Northwestern
is the one in your place, you will call
Hyland 9011. Either of these num-
bers will give you communication with
the J. F. Dvoracek Drug Store at
1921 Washington Avenue North. You
will not be missing the mark either,
for the ]. F. Dvoracek place handles
clean, attractive and complete stock
of goods, not only in the drug es-
sentials proper, but all those access
sorry and supplementary lines which
go to constitute the frst-c1ass pl1ar-
macy and drug store supply of the
present day. This store has been es-
tablished here at 1921 Washington
Avenue North for some twenty-five
years, and was originally known as
the Shumpik-Robertson Drug Com
pany. Mr.. Dvoracek, the present
owner, succeeded the Shumpik-Rob-
ertson Drug Company on Nov. II,
1917, and has conducted the store
since that time. In addition to the
we'll and carefully listed stock of drugs
and drug sundries, the snappiest of
prescription work is done; and then
in the accessory lines can be found
Eastman Kodaks, with supplies, sta
tlonery, tobaccos, confectionery, ETC.
A handsome soda fountain fills one
corner of the floor space and is blessed
with continuous patronage Mr.. Dvor-
acek has succeeded as a result of up
tO-date, progressive measures.
