THE PLAN

l. Every article in our store will be plainly
marked at lowest cash price. This
price is for those of our customers who
come to the store, pay cash for the
articles and carry them home.
. For those who desire we have an eff
cient delivery system. Deliveries will
leave our store promptly at 900, 1000
and 1900 a. m, and 2:30, 400 and 500
p. m. For this service we will make
the nominal charge of cents for each
order
3. We will cheerfully extend credit for 30
days to anyone who is entitled to it, and
for this service we will make the charge
of | cent for each dollar or fraction
thereof
In other words, under the new plan YOU
will pay for just what you get
This new system is not an experiment.
1t has been tried out in the leading stores in
many other towns and in every instance it
has been a great success. We have made
4 thorough investigation of the plan, making
trips to other towns and studying all the de
tails, and when we saw how enthusiastically
other people had adopted it we knew it was
Just the thing for Mineral Point.
Let us show you how it works out BY
the following prices, the old and
the new.
First we will compare list of prices to
the consumer who comes TO the store, paws
cash for the articles and takes them away
with him
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1918-01-03

Second, we will show prices to the Gus
toner who asks delivery but pays for the
goods at store or has them sent c. Q. d:
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1918-01-03

You will notice that under the new
method we will give the same service that
we are at present and still undersell our old
prices. We can do this because we are ma.
terlally reducing our overhead expense by
cutting down the number of our deliveries.
Besides this we can make further savings by
securing larger cash discounts from our
wholesalers.
We are starting something absolutely
new in Mineral Point. If the people wi,
show us that they want something of this
kind we will show them that we can sell,
them the highest grade of groceries cheaper
than they have been buying them.

PRICES WILL ADVANCE
Government Control of Stock Feed
Prices Removed in Kansas.

Wichita, Kan, Dec. 21.-FIour mills
and stock feed concerns have been re-
leased from most of the regulations
controlling them by the food admin
lstration, it was announced by Federal
Food Administrator Innes today.
Prices of shorts and bran are no
longer under control except that mar
gins of profits by jobbers and retailers
are still limited on a basis of a maxi
mum of So to 81 a ton.
Control of prices of oil cake and
other stock feeds also is lifted.
The fixing of the price of shorts and
bran was put in effect at the request
of farmers, but it worked against their
own interest and caused a great deal
of complaint The price was fixed so
low that the demand for such feed
increased abnormally and created
shortage, particularly for dairy cattle
Mills will return to the old COM
petitive basis and it is anticipated I'M
due profits can be checked thru action
of local price boards.
Following the food administration
order, mills, jobbers and dealers here
announced that big jump would be
! registered in Topeka in the price of
bran and shorts. They declare that
as this market is governed by the
eastern market
They declare that the price Jump
is because of the fact that the price
of the commodities under food ad-
ministration rules was abnormally
low. The price of shorts before the
cancellation of the food order here
was $1.43 a hundredweight, and $1,33
for bran.

MANY WILL COME
Immigrants Will Flock to q. s.
From Europe
As Soon as the FloOdgates
Are Opened.

Washington, Dec 21--Immigrant
faborers from Europe will come pour
ing into American ports the minute
the floodgates are opened. This is the
forecast today of officials and diplo-
mats who have given study to the
problem.
Even with the war-sealed lid, over
10000 immigrants slipped into the
United States last year, official figures
show.
AT the bureau of immigration a
rush, exceeding anything previously
known is eXpected-largely from
southern European countries.
Ship passage will be hard to get for
some time and this will operate as a
check-but within six months. unless
legislative restrictions are imposed, or
unless foreign governments take meas
ures to hold their people, inbound
steerages will be packed with immi-
grants, officials believe.
Overcrowding of the labor market
and reduced wages will follow any
such inflow of 1aborers. labor men
say. Demobilization of Americas army
will add to this difficulty.

ASK AID FOR IRELAND
st. Mary's College Students Urge
President To Intercede for Celts,

st. Marys, Kan, Dec. 21.-An en-
thusiastic mass meeting was held by
the students of ST. Mary's college a
few hours before their departure for
the Christmas vacation, their object
being the adoption of resolutions re-
garding self-determination for Ireland
The president of the college, the Rev.
w. E. Cogley, S. J.. addressed the
meeting, touching on the solidity of
Ireland's claims, and basing his ap-
peal on the preponderance of Irish
names on the student roster. He was
vigorously applauded. After the meet
ing the following telegram was sent
to Secretary oseph P. Tumulty:
THE president and faculty of ST.
Mary's college, together with the stu
dent body in mass meeting assembled
beg to urge upon the president of the
United States, the Hon. Mr.. Woodrow
Wilson. the propriety of bringing be-
fore the peace conference the claims
of Ireland to the right which all ma
tons have of determining the form
of government under which they shall
live.
I'VE are persuaded that a failure on
the part of our representatives to ex-
plicitly demand for the Irish people
the same rights of self-determination
which President Wilson has SO elo-
quently accorded to other peoples
would cast suspicion on the sincerity
OF the professions that we have made
in entering and bringing to victorious
conclusion the war against the autoc-
racy and despotism of the central
powers"
