Carter Grain Company Moves.
In order
to increase their facilities for handling their ever-increasing
wholesale and retail grain business, the Carter Grain Company has
moved from their old quarters on Seventh Street into the P. E.
Parker warehouse east of the Santa Fe track on Seventh Street.
Carter
Grain Company has purchased the big warehouse, and their office,
retail and wholesale business will be, as in the past, combined.
They extend thanks to their customers of the past and ask a
continuation of their orders for all kinds of feed stuff, which the
company is in better position to fill than ever, owing to greatly
increased floor space.
