I’m After the
Storekeepers!
Mostly my
g
business is with
the farmers. But this week I’m after
every storekeeper in this county. I
want one dollar from every one of
them—for a year’s subscription for
The COUNTRY
GENTLEMAN
Why? Because in the very first issue
that you’ll get, if you hustle your
dollar right over to me, there is the
beginning of a series of articles called
Big Country Merchants.
There will be ten of these
articles, telling how ten
men in ten towns sue
ceeded in making them-
' selves known as the
biggest country mer
chants. There’s no secret
of their success that isn’t
open to every storekeeper
in this country. Don’t
you want toget into their
class? Don’t you want
increased farmers’
business?
Of course, this article is
only part of all the help
in the September 13th
issue—there are a lot of
other articles and stories
about farmers and farm
ing for storekeepers and
for farmers and farm
women, for gardeners
and orchardists and poul
trymen. And yet 52 big
vital issues cost only one
dollar, about two cents
apiece ! Why “hold out”?
