BERG BROTHERS.

Because of the high prices prevail.
ing for milk and the high cost of
operating milk routes many milk deal
ers have gone out of business and
there was danger that in many sec
tons of Superior there would be a
shortage of milk especially for the
children and babies. Berg Brothers
Immediately added milk to their gro.
Gerry stock at their store, 1923 Bel.
KNAPP Street, as a means of accommo-
dating its customers and others to
purchase wholesome and fresh milk
at the very lowest cash prices. The
cash and carry system is in vogue at
the store and each customer is re-
CURED to bring his own container.
The success of the effort depends on
the patronage given the store by the
public. The sale of milk at II or IL
cents it is said will enable the farmer
to get a fair price for his milk and
at the same time enable the city con
m to get it at a fair price. Berg
Brothers store is noted for the high
grade stocks of groceries always to
be found there and the prices asked
are always as low as can be found
anywhere,

THURE NELSON,

Thure Nelson, grocer, at 1910 Tow
err Avenue, is one of the dependable

ronage he turns his stocks over sew
eral times yearly and thus is enabled

his customers who have discovered
the savings they make on bills of gro
ceries purchased from Mr.. Nelson,
