The benefits OF a telephone for a
farmer are SO numerous that they
suggest themselves. The volume
of business that a farmer can do
and stay at home is astonishing.
The farmer that has a telephone for
one month is satisfied that it is no
longer a luxury but a necessity.
says the ST. James Gazette Moth
ing of Importance occurs but he
knows immediately The current
news Of the day war news, ETC., is
received at home. He can, if he
wishes, have the papers read to him
by a friend in town. Then if a ma
chine breaks down he can 90 to the
phone and find out if the extra one
can be had at once-if not, when.
He is in touch with the daily mar
ket reports. The doctor can tie
summoned and consulted at any
time. The condition ola sick friend
can be learned at home.
