14 sacks of seed wheat,(>0 sacks
of Fairbanks whole wheat Hour,
over a thousand dozen eggs,the
demand far exceeding the sup
ply. The same store imported
no lettuce, rutabagas, cabbage,
carrots, currants, cauliflower,
blueberries or strawberries. In
addition to this, the same con
ea rn sold a great quantity of
home grown radishes, tomatoes
cucumbers; tomatoes etc. All
produce had to come up to the
standard of outside merchandise
and prices paid to the farmer
were very fair. As this store is
one of many located in the same
town it can be readily seen that
at least some produce is sold.

and is a soap of the “skat” vari

declare the substance superior
to any any soap manufactured.
