Hudson Davis Company buyers, after trips to New York, report a wholesale purchase of Fall and Winter dry goods ready to wear shoes and millinery for seven stores. They emphasize quality, low prices, and passing savings to customers as their policy and secret of success.
A local retailer markets a large ready-to-wear selection at prices far lower than competing shops. Wool dresses, serges and tricotines reflect this season’s fashions, priced from 6.45 to 29.85. Ladies coats from 7.50 to 27.50, suits in serges and velours from 19.95 to 38.85, with colors including navy and reindeer.
Hudson, Davis and Company pooled their millinery buying in New York and offer the same hats at lower prices. The department is open for inspection whether customers are ready to buy, promising big stock and value.

A fragmentary market notice describes domestic bleached goods and oils offered at low prices. Mentions 36 inch width brown domestic material and a price around 1.00. Reads like a late 19th or early 20th century trade ad with unclear garbled text and partial phrases.
