PRICES HERE AND ELSEWHERE

Of More Than Passing Interest to the Economical Buyer. In this era of high prices people ■ are ever alert for an opportunity to save money. That Rensselaer offers as many opportunities to do so as any town in this country -we believe to be a fact. For instance, we noticed a grocer’s advertisement in a Kentland paper last week where he was offering as a “Saturday special’’ a 49-pound sack of hard wheat flour for $2.79, cash. The same day anyone could buy a 49-pound sack of hard wheat flour in Rensselaer for $2.15. This is only one instance out of a great many that might be mentioned. But probably a large number of people took advantage of the “$2.79 Special,’’ not knowing that a “$2.15 regular” existed in a neighboring town. Rensselaer has an opportunity here. Let us take advantage of it.
