Emilio Deigado has opened A new

street from which he is selling home
raised and home fattened beef Of
superior quality. The use of our
own local products is OF such great
importance now when the railroads
of the country are lore than CON
tested with traffic, that we look with
great favor on any enterprise that
eliminates the expense and waste OF
shipping our products a thousand
miles to be prepared to be shipped
back to us again for consumption,
thereby entailing the payment of
freight twice, and a profit three or
four times, on articles originally pro-
duced right in our w communities.
We hope to see the day when our
people will request home products
and thereby enable our local mer-
chants to handle the same instead
of forcing them to go elsewhere for
merchandise in order to suit the
whims of their customers. i
