There was another sudden change in the temperature Sunday afternoon and night. The wind blew a regular gale about ail day Sunday but the temperature reached as high as 42 above zero.

In 1910 we handled 16 carloads of flour, more than all the balance of the merchants in Rensselaer handled. We are not trying to boost ourselves as a better merchant or better salesman than others, but give the credit to Aristos flour that has made us more friends than anything we have ever handled. We have just unloaded our first car for 1911 and if you have never tried it, we want you to give it a trial. We will return your money if it is not the best flour made. x JOHN EGER.
