Binding Twine Will bo Cheaper
R Kleiner of this county is just
back from a -trip to Lansing, Kan.,
where he went at the instance of the
territorial hoard of agriculture,
to made some kind of arrangement
with the binding twine factory u> j News- Pencil Pushers
furnish its product to the Oklahoma
wheat grower this season as a means
of escaping the extortions of the
twine combine He was very
successful in accomplishing his pur-
pose and closed a contract with
the institution to furnish Oklahoma
farmers with at least ftt)00,0U0 pound** MANT
«>f twiue at a cost of HJ cents per j
pound in 5,000 pound lots and 9 cent
per pound *in orders under that
amount. The freight rate on the
same to Oklahoma will increase the
cost about 1 cent a pound making 9i
cents per pound laid down. In view
of the fact that the farmers paid all
the way from 12$ to 16 cents per
pound for their binding twine last sea-
son, the value of Mr. Kleiner's trip is
apparent.

.. Bargains
There ure merchants who advertise bargains and when
you go to buy them the clerk tells you they "are all sold" or
the price lias raised. Then again, there are merchants who nev-
er advertise a bargain unless they have it. We belong to the
latter class, and when we say we have bargains you may depend
upon getting them at the prloes named.
I Look at this list and see what you can save by doing
! your trading here:
' _
r FLOUR.
We sell the celebrated Choctaw and Acme flour at
$2.50 per hundred; Rival and Supreme at $2.70 per hundred.
We bought before the raise and can sell cheaper than merchants
who bought later.
