We have been running our flour mill now for six , months and haye been
trying to introduce our gooda through the local merchants, as we thought that
the best way to do it; but this seems to be a failure as our merchants say they
are not able to, get the people of Liberal and vicinity to use this Home Made
Flour. They don't seem to find any large amount of complaint on the goods'
but they simply don't seem to be able to get this flour out. Now the time has
come when we are goipg to see if the people1 of the country adjacent to Liberal
are hot willing to use home made goods if assured that they are getting an
article as good as is shipped in. You know that there is always a great howl
made about patronizing7 home industries. We are now giving you that oppor
tunity. We are now going to give the farmers a chance. We have been
giving the grocers the opportunity for six months. We have an experienced
miller and are paying him as good a salary as any mill in the country and we
have as good machinery and process as any mill iv the country and also ' have
as good wheat as any place in Kansas and we are making as good an article as
any shipped in and we guarantee every sack. t
We are going to give the farmers and flour users of the country around
Liberal a chance to buy their flour at wholesale price. We can afford to sell
our goods at home for less money than by going off in a new territory and are
GOING TO DO IT. We know that the people are not going to pay fifteen
cents per sack more for their flour if they can help it and we are now going to
give them an opportunity. We are going to sell our flour at the mill door to
any one who comes after it and guarantee it equal to any flour sold in Liberal
at the following prices.
' Best Patent "Pride of Liberal" $2.10 per hundred
"Lily" Second Patent $2.00 per hundred
All Mill Feed at Market Prices
Bring your wheat to the mill and exchange if you wish or we will give you
all or a little more' for your good milling wheat than any other elevator.
Come in and see us and we will give you a square deal. We expect to be a
farmers mill from now on and put our goods out direct to the people.
We will run a delivery for the city trade two days
in the week, Monday and Friday.
