Local Merchants Sink
Knife Into Big Prices
Boston, Model and Sullivan's Leader
Store Have Important Messages
in this Weeks Herald.

There is a general trend for de-
cidedly lower prices in foodstuffs and
wearing apparel, and merchants are
endeavoring to get their stocks re-
duced before the actual slump comes.
The season for the purchase OF
winter goods is much later than US
ual in this section and the Sank Cen
tire business men are this week using
much of the Herald space in quoting
very attractive bargains in depend
able merchandise.
The Boston Store has a two page
spread on pages IL and 13 of the
second section in which the an
nouncement is made that every artl-
Gle in this splendid stock has been
reduced 20 per cent or more:
The Model Clothing and Shoe
store are using all of page five, first
section to call attention to the many
bargains of decided value found
in their clothing and shoeNtock.
Thos. Sullivan's Leader Store mon
opolizes the greater portion OF page
eight, first section in which very at
tractive prices are offered in Ladies
Ready-to Wear and Dry good. Pru--
dent buyers will study these adver-
tisements closely and profit by the
opportunity to purchase Winter mer-
chandise at very advantageous
prices. 1t is not conceivable that
for many months at least
prices on the class of merchandise Of
fered will reach the low level set by
the Sank Centre merchants in this
weeks issue of the Herald. ~

SENATOR JOHNSON
DISCUSSES EQUITY
SAUK CENTRE FARMERS HOLD
MEETING TO PLAN ORGAN
IZATfQN HERE
Want A FARMERS ELEVATOR
SENTIMENT FAVORS ISSUE
WILL MEET NEXT SATUR-
DAY EVENING

Declaring that through co-opera-
ton, such as is offered by the Farm
ers Equity Association, farmers in
Sank Centre and vicinity would find
the only solution to better marketing,
Senator A. johnson, of Kingston,
laid the plans of local organiza-
ton before a large delegation of
farmers at the Commercial Club
rooms Saturday evening.
The meeting was called by friends
of the Equity, for the purpose of
sounding out the farmers, and learn
ing the sentiment, locally, regarding
the establishing of farmers eleva-
tor here.
Senator Johnson went into detail
in explaining the work of the Equity
association in the state to his audi
ance.
He showed how in few years,
the farmers had established an ex-
change of their own in Minneapolis,
and in the face of the heavy odds
presented by the firms which are
members of the Chamber of Com
merce, had succeeded in carrying out
their plan and are now building a
large exchange of their own.
Mr.. johnson explained that it
would take a capital to establish an
elevator here. He called attention
to the expenses connected with the
building and operating of such con-
Germ, and estimated that the cost of
building would be at least $4,000.
According to advices at the meet
ing Saturday, there are already a
number of farmers in this locality
who are members of the Equity.
Some of them, they say, were en-
ticed into joining on the promise OF
an organizer who visited Sank Cen
tire about month ago, promising
that the association would give Sauk
Centre farmers an elevator in time
for this years crops.
This organizer, so the story goes,
has since departed to parts unknown.
Mr.. Johnson promised in behalf OF
the state organization, to either give
the farmers their elevator or refund
the money to those who bought
shares only with the understanding
that an elevator would be built here
this fall.
The sensiment of Saturdays meet
ing was in favor of completing the
local organization, and it was agreed
to hold another meeting at the
rooms of the Commercial Club next
Saturday evening to complete the
organization.
! About $4,000 worth of shares in
the Equity are now held by Sank
Centre farmers. a"-a.s
at is the plan of the Equity" said
Mr.. johnson "to see to it that the
farmer received the cost of produc-
ton, plus little profit, and to put
into practice the scheme of handling
our produce so that it goes, direct
from the Producer to the Consumer,
and to away with the mlddle-man,
who alone is responsible for the high
cost of living
