A Radio Investment That Will Pay Interest is an Atwater-Kent The farmer who has no automobile or no radio set today, is at a disadvantage in selling his produce His car is invaluable in getting him around, and into town, without taking all day. But his radio set is even more useful, per dollar invested, because with it he or his family can sit (fawn at home and “listen in” on the market reports and the crop or weather predictions, and then he can shape his whole selling plans in the full knowledge of what the market of fers at different national market centers at the clos ing hour of each day. The farmer needs his radio and it is good business investment to have a radio in the home. Atwater Kent radio sets are listed by thousands of Atwater Kent owners as the most desired radio set of all. The amazing popularity of the Atwater Kent radio is built upon its wide range of selectivity, its persist ent efficiency day after day, and its reputation for all-round performance.
