Strongly built of the best' possible material the Columbus wagon gives the most satisfactory service for the longest period of years. There is no secret in the notedly long life of the Columbus wagon. It is the result of the methods employed in construction. There is igo wood in this wagon which has not been air.dried under shelter from one to two years. The axles and the spokes of the wheels are hickory; the hounds, -olsters and sandboards are oak, and the bottom of the box is straight - grained flawless pine. These are just a few examples of the care whlich is taken to make this wagon as reliable as p)ossible. The result is that the Columbius wagon is unbeatable in reliab~ility and endurance. Conmo in and examiine it for yourself. WVe know you will be pleased. Pickens Hardware & Grocery Co~ Get Valuable Premiums Free by g a Using Our Profit-Sharing Plan 8 Dyortraing a J. WV.
