Why not stop at the farmers wagon yard? Shade for your buggies, good
stalls for your horses, telephone connection all over Marlin, ice water to
drink. Your trade highly appreciated. The main reason your trade is
wanted so badly is that the feed is only 5 cents per head and it takes a whole
lot of them to come into dollars. Why not come to the farmers wagon yard,
respectfully, B.F. Cronch, yard manager.
