ttock of pianos to dispose of.
ANOTHER HOUSE IN SAN FRANCISCO.
The J. Raymond Smith Co. have opened a new
music store at 2126-28 Sutter St., San Francisco,
and will handle pianos and musical merchan-
dise. This is the second new store opened in San
Francisco since the fire.
SMALL FAILURE IN PUEBLO, COL.
The Loftus Music Co., Pueblo, Col., have filed a
petition in bankruptcy with liabilities at $1,000.
The company had only been in business about
one vear.
WILL THEY MANUFACTURE IN CANADA?
The growth in popularity of the Haines Bros,
pianos in Canada was the subject of a chat with
a well-known dealer from "across the border"
the other day, and he ventured the opinion that
in the near future it might be deemed wise for
the Foster-Armstrong Co. to establish a branch
factory in Canada in addition to their immense
city of factories at Despatch, N. Y. There are a
number of vacant factory plants in the Province
of Ontario which could be utilized without delay.
Moreover, the manufacture of Haines Bros.
pianos in Canada would do away with the pay-
ment of the tariff which now is rather heavy on
American pianos entering Canada.
The Baldwin piano is well represented in Colo-
rado, some of the agencies being H. L. Martin,
Loveland; O. P. Zottman, La Junta; J. W. Fer-
rell. Castle Rock, and L. B. Taylor, Longmont.
T. M. Armstrong, Fort Worth, Tex., has taken
the entire store at HOG Jennings avenue, to ac-
commodate his growing trade. He formerly had
only half a store.
a well-known dealer remarked
Kurtzmann Piano.
Continuing he said, " I have sold a good many different makes of
pianos, but I never have found any which proved more satisfactory
in every way than the Kurtzmann.
It is attractively gotten up, has
splendid musical qualities, and it wears. People who buy them at
once form an advertising strength in their favor."
A word to the wise is sufficient. The Kurtzmann piano has
been before the public for several decades, and it is made as good
as we know how to build it.
