Home Gardens Cut in Half the H. C. L.Better Plan For One in 1920.

Home gardens have cut in half the cost of providing their owners with foodstuffs, is the statement made' by several local home gardeners.

One dozen tomato plants should yield tomatoes valued at $9, while a 100-foot row of corn netted the owner corn valued at $2.50 and a 100-foot row of beets produced $2.00 worth of beets.

Represent a Closely Woven Combination of Sentiment and Investment Its value is never forgotten or impaired with age. The advance in diamond prices, which has been brought about as the result of the world war, has in no way affected the demand for diamonds. And we have no reason to believe that diamonds will ever be lower in price or a better investment than now.

You can look with safety to Dickinson's for expert advice when buying a diamond, whether you contemplate a modest stone at $25 or a finer one at $1,000 or more.

Diamonds are easily misjudged and should be purchased only at places of known reputation and reliability. We are diamond experts and positively guarantee each and every stone we sell.

The latter, It is alleged ordered him to take over the power in Hungary and thanked him for his services to the Hapsburg dynasty.

IUTRH"

It's all in selecting the furnishings ! The proper selection means taste, refinement and that indescribable something we call "atmosphere." Some furniture is stiff and awkward while other furniture is graceful and "restful" and pleasant to look upon. The latter is to be found on our sales floors in a multitude of charming designs. The beauty

and grace of each suite or individual piece seems to be trying to out-do all the rest. Everything which you could possibly want for every room is here. There are exquisite suites and individual chairs and rockers, tables, lamps and any number of other interesting things. The prices are most moderate and the values very unusual as you will know.

WE OUTFIT" Wo

AND WE ARE PROVING TO MANY THE ECONOMY AND DESIRABILITY OF BUYING NOW There are many reasons why furniture will go higher: none why it should get cheaper for months and, perhaps, years. Demands that cannot possibly be met; extremely high wages; scarcity of desirable timber and many other things all point to higher prices. We advise purchase now of anticipated needed furniture.

In planning your home there is nothing of so great importance as the inside the heart of the home. Your Furniture, Rugs and Draperies should be selected in accordance with a well-thought-out plan. An unwise selection can prove very expensive. In other words, it is not so much a question of HOW MUCH you in

vest, as it is one of PROPER SELECTION. You can secure benefit from the experience of others; you can also come here where we specialize on home outfits and thru years of experience in the planning and arranging of homos get the greatest possible customer satisfaction at the amount the customer desires to invest.
