Conditions Governing Our i"" ■■■*—' 11 1 — 1 Credit Business During 1904. Owing to the shortage of crops and available supply of money during the past year, we will necessarily be compelled to adopt more stringeut and exacting rules governing our treatment of credit tales. These things are unavoidable and we cannot control them iu any manner. We are not bankers, therefore our supply of cash Is often exhausted. The same thing, it seems, will apply to many of our customers, and we have adopted theee non-chaugeable rules for 1901: Conditions of Credit: We will extend credit as a matter of accomodation to such customers as we have found to be honest, trustworthy or liable by law. We do this only to accomodate our patrons. We will not and cannot sell as cheaply for credit as for cash. We aim to make a difference of about 10 per cent on all purchases. Thirty days is as long as we can carry any account profitably, and interest at the rate of eight per cent will be attached after 60 days, unless specifically arranged to the eontrary. We will not open any new accounts unless bankable note, with interest^rom date, is tendered as payment therefor. All acco un t s grow with age aud are usually larger than the customer expected. To avoid this you should not buy on time, then there will never be any controversy at time of settlement. Our books are what we go by and not our customer’s memory. Always buy with cash. 6. M.
