at 100000. The lowest was in
1882 when. in the period of the World
Conference for Reduction Of Arma-

These Are
Days For
Refrigerators

With the temperature way up
high the thoughts of most house
wives turn towards electric re-
frigeration. Recently installed in
the Clarence Hughes home on
Fourth Ave. S., Minneapolis, was
a large Shelvador refrigerator sold
to the house by the Aalbu and
Erickson Sales Service, whose ad
appears in this issue of the paper.
This box comes highly recon-
mended and is handled by a reli-
able firm which gives a guarantee
with all boxes sold.
Husbands interested in having
the proper refrigeration to end
food wastes should see that their
wives are provided with an cleo
trio refrigerator this summer.
1t might be wise to allow the
firm mentioned above to demon
strate what they have in the way
of electric refrigerators. When you
call them, ask for Ernie A. Erick-
son.
