GIBBONS Send in Your OrtUr for Canned Fruits Now. I wisj to thank the ladies of the town who have placed orders with me for canned produce from the farm ladies which are to be deliver ed some time in the latter part of the summer. This will be great help to the ladies on the farms and to you top. We cannot put the price ^oh this produce now but whatever the market price is at the time of deliv ery will be our guide. If there are others who wish to be supplied for the winter I feel sure that we can get you supplied with home canned produce at a reasortable cost. Give the farm ladies a chance and I feel sure there will be a good guarantee on each jar sold. No Demand for Butter. As there is no demand for our farm butter at the club market I have tried to get the best methods of saving our farm butter. The recipe for this is published elsewhere in this paper. I wish you would read it and try this method of keeping butter. I am not guaranteeing this but it seems to me that it is worth a trial anyway. Tbe Club Market. The club market so far has been a success and we appreciate the help that every one has given us to mase it so. We hope to build up this mar ket and have one of the best mar kets that you can find. If there are any suggestions as to how to make it a success we will appreciate them mn/?h Wp have the market twice a week, every Friday at the Court House and every Saturday at the Mill. Now if you can't get to one come to the other. Our object in the Hom? Demon stration work is "To Make the Best Better." Let us all get together and do this. I would be very glad if the ladies would send me a list of what they have to sell and I would be able to N OF THESE 1G MEN'S SUITS i that haven't been | J i to fit both Men and . ; .ITY CLOTHING at 5 ! >F THE NEW AR7 I - ' f NG MEN... e Serge Suits .00 colored pen stripes .50 .
