necessary for him to pay on an
out-of-town shipment, and he
took the goods home with him
in the wagon that day. He is now
convinced that it is good thing
to find out what the home dealer
can do for you before you spend
your money. You are not treat
ing yourself fairly unless you
follow this farmers example
unless you get home figures. You
may save by doing so. But if
your home dealer does no better
than to meet the out-of-toWn
competition-if he is able only to
give you quality for quality and
price for price-there is salts
faction in dealing with home
folks that one does not find in
the cold-steel methods of the big
city institutions, where the Gus
toner is merely name and a
number in a book and where per-
sonality does not enter into the
transaction. And besides, it's
worth something to see the
goods before you buy them-and
it's worth something to be able
to take the goods home with you
in the wagon the same day. |

This Farmer Saved SS.15

A farmer went into a certain
Kansas store recently and said
to the dealer: 81 have an order
here for $22 worth of merchan-
disc that / made out to send
away, but, as a matter of fair
ness to you, l want you to figure
on the bill. I have been told that
our home merchants can't meet
the prices of out-of-town con-
cerns-and / want to know"
And the dealer said, ga chance
at your business is all l ask"
The farmer read off the items
from his list. The dealer wrote
them down, placing after each
item his regular retail price.
Then, he added the figures, and
the farmer found that by buying
at home he could save $3.15 on
the bill. The dealer then showed
the farmer the goods, the ar
ticles in every instance being of
equal quality, and, in some in
stances being superior in quail
ty to brands and makes noted on
the farmers list. The farmer
not only bought his bill of the
home dealer, but he saved the
$3.15 on the purchase; he saved

GOOD BOOSTERS

Hecla Journal: c. S. Lowell and
w. M. Lee of Kancvillc, Ill.,, spent
a couple of days in Hccla this week.
MIR. Lowell has been here several
days looking over his farming and
ranching interests near Ludden and
east of that place. The first of the
week he met MIR. Lee at Oakcs and
from there they went to Lchr, N.
D., to look over cattle ranch
which they own and operate. AT
present they have over GOO head of
cattle on the place. On the place
east OF Luddcn they have $50 head.
These two gentlemen are both
prominent farmers in their home
state and live in a section whcN.
land sells around the 5000 mark,
but for all that are two good boost
ers for this section of the Dakotas.
Mr.. Lowell erected on his place at
Ludden last year larger and more
modern house for his tenant than
you can usually find and when ask
ed about it stated he had made it
there and would leave it there.
That kind of nonresident land
owner is quite an asset to the coun-
TRY. Mr.. Lee expects to return
home this week. going by way OF
Elkton. S. d.. for a visit enroute
but Mr.. Lowell will remain for a
few days.

JAMES HARNESS PASSES

Death came to James w. Har-
ness at the home of his sister in
,Oakcs OH Saturday, August 18th.
He had been gradually breaking
down the past year, his ailment
coming from brain trouble. Fun
'cral services were held from the
M. l.. church on Monday at three
O'Clock, conducted by Rev. James
Opic. The remains were laid to
rest in Oakes cemetery.
James w. Harness was born Ian.
29, IS46, in Lincolnshire, England.
and was therefore 68 years, 8
months and IA days old at the time
of his death. He came to America
at the age of nineteen and settled in

failing health they moved to Ir-

and in June brought her brother

many young men at a SIX O'Clock
dinner. The table was beautifully
decorated with flowers, the chief
point of interest, however, being
the birthday cake, which was top
ped with-a number of tiny can
dies. When the delectable and sub
stantial eats which came first were
disposed of, the candles were light
cd, after which, according to GUS
tom, they were blown out to deter
mins Just the number of years he
fore the guest of honor should be a
bride. We all know there were six
candles left brightly burning after
that first terrific puff which Miss
Mabel gave, and somebody who
had a mathematical turn of mind
said that thirteen went out, which,
according to modern thought,
would indicate just the right age
at which a girl should marry, but
those who know Mabel best think
the sign completely at fault.
After the cake and about every
thing else was eaten, the party cx-
ercised their activities on the lawn
for while; then, following up one
lof the conditions of their invita-
ton, the young ladies took their es-
corts to church; and because we
have reason to believe that some
unregenerates among the number
would not have gone under other
circumstances, the celebration ac-
complished a really bene6ccnt end.
We extend to Miss Crownhart our
best wishes that she may have
many happy returns of the day.
