Gentlemen—I want to write and thank you for
the splendid treatment extended me while at your
office during the marketing of the twenty-four
double decks of sheep belonging to John Viall,
my son. I also want to thank you for the splen
did sales you made on the shipment.
The feeding sheep at $3.60, and yearling feeding
wethers* at $4.65 were the top of the market on
both grades, and our fat sheep, considering the
condition they were in, sold very well at $3.75. I
appreciate that they were not as fat as they should
have been.
This is my first business with the Bowles peo
ple, and I assure you that I am perfectly satisfied
with your service and sales.
. Very respectfully,
E. B. Viall.

W. E. Dailey, a farmer near Akron,
Ohio, has instituted proceedings in
tbe district oourt against the two land
men, charging fraud and deceit. The
case will, it is said, when it is called

tional facts in the manner in which

either through mistaken locations or
unscrupulousness on the part of land
dealers.

man of the extra gang employed by

The
Lamp That
Saves The Eyes
Children naturally never think of
possible strain on their eyesight when
poring over a fascinating book.
It is up to you to see they do not ruin
their young eyes these long evenings
by reading under a poor light.
The Rayo Lamp is an insurance
against eye troubles, alike for young
and old.
The Rayo is a low-priced lamp, but it is constructed on the soundest
scientific principles, and there is not a better lamp made at any price.
It is easy on the eye because its light is so soft and white and
widely diffused. And a Rayo Lamp never flickers.
Easily lighted without removing shade or chimney; easy to clean and re wick.
Solid brass throughout, with haodtome nickel finish; also in many other styles and finishes.
