BARKERS BEST J ust at this time of year when farmers are hauling manure it takes a rattling good shoe to stand the wear. Barkers Beal are made or old fashioned bark tanned kip skin and come as near standing the acids of manure as any shoe we have ever had arid they are as near water proof as a leather can be made. Take a look at a pair, you’ll like them if you like good shoes. MENS $3.00 Charlie Voglewede The Shoe Seller
