ARE DOING A
GREAT BUSINESS

AN An Immense Trade In Cen
+r,l Idaho Colntr, Sum
Total is Surprising.

The writer wonders if it ever
...,rred to our readers how
much nu business some &c OF the n, local
srms f'T are really haadling. Take
t,r'i for instance, the Simon Bros
.os .osst market: Did you ever stop
~ .n' think how many. beeves and
h,gs h this firm sells weekly y our, our
,ns ,st the harv est season and how
'ut aTtpnsive their trade territory
m;oht be? We confess we never
did but our curiosity got the up
u~' asr hand this week and we were
,n ,imply astounded when our ques-
tions were answered, as perhaps
WI, NAV be when we tell you
/ what we learned.
Every citizen of Cottonwood
md vicinity has no doubt realize d
/ that we have one of the best
/ eo,,ipped and cleanest meat mar
/ kets in the country, but the pro-
/ nrietors are usually so busy and
4 are 50 unostentatious that one
i would never gather the impress
sion that they are handling an
4 immense amount of business for
such a small town and are killing
more animals daily than many OF
\ the shops in the large cities.
We were informed that during
the past several weeks they have
killed from "a to Is beeves each
week and about 20 hogs a week,
and that this is no exceptional
thing during harvest each year.
While the harvest season is their
busiest time, their trade is by no
means light during the entire
year and their large refrigerator
plant is usually filled with the
meat meat killed for the local trade
and outside shipments.
At the present time this firm
is issupplying meat to one of the
leading restaurants in Grange
vile, the meat market at Ferd..
nand, several work crews on the
lo,al railway, between twenty
and twenty-five threshing crews
on the prairie and is also ship
ping its products by parcel pos
to all parts of the surrounding
country.
The firm also does a large bust
ness in cured meats and lard
supplying many of the small
stores throughout the uppe
country, and, with its fresl
meats, makes parcel and express
shipments to Vollmer, Reubens
Lapwai, Fem, Grangeville, Wi
mona and into the country tribu
tary to Sites.
In fact, many of the travelling
men passing through the countr,
stop here and take home choic
cuts of meat for their Sunda
dinner, and many residents O
1eighboring towns send in dali
mail order for what they need i
the meat line.

hnest meat markets for its si2
