Prices Cut and Recut
As New York Stores
Push Price War
Electric Mixers Open at
S46.50 and Wind Up at
1896 Before Day Ends
BY the Associatsd Press

NEW YORK. May 30.-To buy
or not to buy, that was the 34th
street question yesterday.
The busy thoroughfare's two
main department stores, Macy's
and Gimbel Brothers. and other
city merchants are engaged in a
price war after the Supreme
Courts decision on fair trade.
Macy's touched of the battle
yesterday with announced 6 per
cent cuts on about $500 items.
Competitors followed suit, and
Macy's cut again. and again, and
again. So did the competitors.
Customers roamed the stores
but held back, waiting for prices
to continue to fall. Many returned
merchandise, then made re-pur-
chases at the reduced prices.
Here are some examples OF yes
terday's price cuts at one store:
Electric mixers, fair-traded at
$3.50, opened at $43.5o. They
then were cut successfully to
$40.89, 1894 and 1896.
A $3.50 fixed-price best-selling
novel was $4.23 at the start of
the reductions. During the day its
tag changed to 1894, $3.74 and
finally $500.
A vacuum cleaner price-fixed at
$89.95 was cut to $84.50 and again
to $79.43.

as we have in the past"
Abraham g. Straus. a large
Brooklyn department store, saic
that "our customers will imme.
diately enjoy savings of up to II
Iper cent"
Meteorologically it was a poor
day for price war. Rainy weather
kept many shoppers at home.
But it was a field day for the
comparison shoppers. These are
people sent out by one store tc
find out what another store is
selling and for how much. In
one department store an observer
expressed belief there were more
comparison shoppers than GUS
toners.
That was the New York picture
Elsewhere. things were different

A few price cuts in branded
lines were reported in New Haven

Roof Garden Prize Nugget Has TWenty-Year History

At midnight, December 8, at the High School Gymnasium, a huge, solid gold nugget will be given away to some lucky person.
 This nugget is not just an ordi- nary nugget because it has a his tory. Twenty years ago during the summer mining season, this mug get was found in the sluices at Quigley's mining ground on Big Hurrah Creek in the Solomon area by Rube Cremer, local pio- neer.
 He states that the flash of yell low almost blinded him and that he had to put on colored glasses before picking it out of the sluice box. All the miners in that area stopped operations and came to see this wonderful brilliant ob- ject. After hours of debate as to whether such an object could be gold, the Solomon miners decided that it was gold in the purest form.
 Since that time, MT. Cremer has carried the nugget covetously and continuously in his pocket and now he has kindly consented to turn it over to the Pioneers for their Roof Garden.
 So, folks, be sure to be at the Pioneer Roof Garden, December 8, because someone will be the proud owner of this nugget before the evening is over.
 Three other valuable prizes will be on display in Polet's Store this coming week so stop by and see for yourself.

HOW TO STAPLE FENCING

J. w. writes: ''There are three
sizes of fence staples-short, medium
and long. When go to the dealer,
I always buy the long ones.
When I build fence 2O-40-60 or
80 rods long, 1 always stretch the
whole length at one stretching and
when I drive the staples 1 never
drive them in tight but leave from
one-fourth to one-half inch out so
the wire can give either way.
With this method a snow bank at
one end of 40-rod fence can pull
the wire down, and when the snow
melts, the fence will stretch right
back again. 1t can take up the slack
out of the whole 40 rods; while if it
is stapled tight to every post, it will
break the wire or let it hang loose
between the posts where the snow
bank occurred or COW reached
through the fence.
This goes for woven wire also. We
have some fence which has not
been re-stretched for 10 years and
it is still reasonably good"
