Why use that old grain drill il 1T
is not doing satisfactory work? You
know that you cannot afford to waste
much seed with that old drill as, at
the present price of seed, it will not
take long to make up the price of a
new drill. If you have no drill at
all but sowing your seed broadcast,
have you ever figured what your
grain costs you and then also figure
the difference in the yield you will
receive in using a drill that sows
your seed at an even depth and also
sows it evenly over your field?
We carry the Van Brunt Drill in
10, IL and IA Single Discs. These
single disc drills are also inter-
changeable for a double disc or a

Minnesota Paints

Now that spring is here, why not
let us get busy about painting up
those houses, that we have let go
without a good coat of paint for pro-
lection against the storms and rains
of the year.
Last year you said you would put
it off a year and let it go; don't do
that this year as the lumber is rot
ting to a greater extent than it
would cost to give it the necessary
paint to insure you good protect ion
and insurance against loss from de-
teriOration.
Let us figure with you on what
it will cost to cover your house, as
MINNESOTA PAINT goes farther
than any paint on the market when
it comes to covering, as it is pure
White Lead, Zinc and PURE Linseed
oil paint ground together under five
ton grinders.
Give us the size of your buildings
and we will tell you what it will
cost you to cover it with MINNIE

AreYouDoing Your Share?

Mr.. Farmer, the share that you
will have in helping Uncle Sam and
standing back of your country is by
planting every acre of land that is
in any way available for crops. The
different states are beginning to
realize this, and Wisconsin, for in
stance. is being organized in a sys-
tematic manner to carry out the
league Of farmers and to have every
one act as a unit in providing the
necessities that are sure to be de-
manded of the farmers in this coun-
try in the very near future.
Have you planned to put in every
available acre that you can? If not,
now is the time to get ready and do
your planning, and while you are
planning do not forget that you can
not depend on hired help as you could
a few years ago, so it is up to you
to get the machinery that will cut
your labor and put you in a posi-
ton to get over as much land as pos
sible with what dependable help you
have.
We carry a complete line of the
JOHN DEERE labor-saving farm ma
chinery and our stock is set up ready
for your inspection, as we feel that
the farmers are entitled to SEE what
they are buying before they pay for
it.
If you are in need of any machin-
cry whatever do not forget that our
stock is very complete at present,
and according to prospects it will
pay you to place your order as soon
as possible

From now on you will be asking
for a DAYLO instead Of Flashlight,
as the judges in the EVER READY
contest last fall decided that the
prizes should 60 to the persons who
handed in the name DAYLO. The
prize of $4,000 was to go to the per-
son handing in the best name. The
judges decided on Daylo and as there
were four contestants handed in the
same name, the Ever Ready Company
sent a draft of $4,000 to each one
of the winners.
Why didn't we guess Daylo; easy,
itsn't it?
We carry a complete line of Ever
Ready goods.
