Jasper County Democrat, Volume 16, Number 101, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 25 March 1914 — Don’t Bite, Mr. Farmer. [ARTICLE]

Don’t Bite, Mr. Farmer.

A bunch of steel range Salesmen are at work in Jasper county at present with teams and wagons, trying to sell ranges to the farmers, and no doubt they will find many ■who will buy, as did a recent sewing machine agent who worked the country hereabouts. The Democrat advises its readers to buy of the local dealers, who sell reliable goods at a reasonable price and are right here if there are any “come-backs” to complain about. It is very foolish to buy goods of strangers, who are here today ana away tomorrow, and to whom you have very foolishly given your haiM cash or note for about one-third' more than you could have bought the same article for from the home dealer. 1
