A Large Line of Stock Food and Remedies
I want all farmers, and others interested in stock and poultry, to know that I carry an unusually large and well assorted line of Foods and Remedies for Horses, Cows, Sheep, Hogs and Poultry. Below is a partial list: - International Stock and Poultry Foods and Remedies. Sal- Vet and Sal-Vet Remedies for cows and Poultry. Lippencott's Roup, Gap, Cholera, and Canker Remedy for Poultry. Pratt's and Hess's Stock and Poultry Preparations. Foutz, Barkers, and Harvells Condition Powders. Sloans, Barkers, Kitchells and Kendalls Liniments. Daniel's and Young's Remedies, Including Absorbine.
Gombault's Caustic Balsam,-Save the Horse,-Kow Kure, etc.
Paints and Varnishes
Labor costs more than material in painting and it is very poor economy to try to save a dollar or two (which in reality you do not save because good paint covers more surface) when painting your house or barn, by buying poor material and not only spoil the job but also the surface for future work.
We carry the SHERWIN-WILLIAMS PAINTS AND VARNISHES in stock and you can always get what you want at any time, better buy your paint from a merchant who carries the goods in stock and who will guarantee you your money's worth rather than from some one miles away that you do not know, and therefor take a chance on the quality, or from some one who pretends to save you the middle man's profit by direct shipments when he is the middle man himself, you cannot get more than you pay for.
MAIL ORDERS for drugs and medicines receive prompt attention.
