Have More
Cheap Apples

We purchased this week large
lot of small tumble pack apples.
We have had them carefully sorted,
and will sell them while they last
at Coo per box.
Butter and eggs are not content
to remain in one place long at a
time, they are continually on the
move. This week they are taking
a trip downward; best creamery
butter retailing at 48c per h.; ranch
butter at 3Sc per h., and we are
now able to pay but tic for eggs.
Tuesday we cut the price of flour
1Oc per sack, and from all reports
still further declines are in sight.
Snow Drift Shortening declined
again this week, and the new prices
now in effect surely make Snow
Drift a mighty cheap shortening,
as we'll as a mighty good one.
Matches refused to follow suit
along. with other commodities, but
instead they advanced $1.00 per
case, making the new retail price
10c per box or 8 for 25c.

Who was that new fellow work

take care of the rush every Satur-

will not permit the expense of put

this time, but we will endeavor to
have sufficient extra help to ham

We wish to thank our patrons for

be able to give you much better

Fruit i'm General

The cold weather of March 27-
% killed most of the peaches and
other early fruit from Virginia west
ward to northern Arkansas and
southern Kansas, and from Tenn
essee northward to the southern
parts of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois;
also there was severe damage done
to these early fruits as far north
as Nebraska and central Illinois.
The apple crop of Arkansas and
Virginia seems to have been re-
duced to a small fraction of a nor
NAL yield. However, the peaches in
Georgia and east Texas escaped this
frost damage, and fruit prospects
generally in California are excel
lent. ..

Wheat

The condition of winter wheat
throughout the country is generally
favorable and good growth being
made. The damage from the recent
freeze appears to be negligible and
very little winter-killing is report
ed. Rain is needed in Wyoming.
Hessian fly is prevalent in all Sec
lions of Indiana, but no damage re-
ported as yet. Some fly damage is
reported from Michigan.
Seeding of spring wheat is prac-
tically completed in Iowa and is
progressing well in Washington.
The acreage planted in Indiana will
be small. - @< -

We just received a new lot of al

Eggs! Eggs!
Eggs! Eggs!

You should now put up few eggs
for winter use. We just received
a new barrel of water glass, the
last one we will have this season.
Put up in 1 quart jars, per jar
40 cents.
Put up in 2 quart jars, per jar
rs cents.
Directions
for using Water Glass as an Egg
Preservative:
Use one part to eleven parts of
recently boiled water which has
cooled, stir until thoroughly mixed.
A stone jar is the most suitable
vessel to use.
Two eight-gallon jars are suffi-
cient for thirty dozen eggs, using 3
pints of this solution to four gal
Ions of water.
The jars should be absolutely
clean. Place the eggs (ncne that
are cracked) with the small end
down, which is best done by fitting
the jar to a slanting position; then
pour the mixture over the eggs
until they are submerged at least
two inches below the surface in the
liquid. Cover the jars to prevent
evaporation, and store in a cool,
dry and dark place.
Eggs preserved as above will
keep in good condition for about
one year. Care should be taken in
selecting only absolutely fresh eggs
dirty eggs should not be used or
eggs that have been washed. Spring
eggs keep better than summer or
fall eggs; infertile eggs will keep
better than fertile ones.
When taken out of the preserva-
tive for table use, rinse the eggs
thoroughly with water; before boil
ing puncture the shell with pin.

Arsenate of Lead is Cheaper

Because a very large proportion
of the apple orchards Of the east
and south will have no crops this
year, the manufacturers of spraying
materials find themselves up
against a pretty small market for
their products. This has resulted in
big cut in price on sArsenate of
Lead.
Our list is now as follows:
200 pound drums ---..--.-.$42.OO
100 pound drums .......$22.00
Four pound packages -----------8Sc
We have a supply of several
standard brands and are prepared
to fill all orders promptly.
We do not anticipate further de-
clines this season. However, if the
wholesale price does go lower we
will follow at once.

CHEAP HOG FEED

We have a few tons of wheat
that contains more or less smut,
making it unsuitable for chicken

hogs. We are selling it at very

Per hundred pounds, $1.75; per
ton $1,000.
Add $500 per ton for grinding.
We also have few tons of
good, clean wheat that has been
somewhat damaged by fire. This
makes excellent poultry or hog
feed and is bargain at same
