way up on North Main street about
where the store Of Tapp Brothers q:
Henshaw are now located They he'd
load OF groceries. some overalls and picket
ropes. the latter being staple articles in
this county at that time
IN the fall Of ISL. Tom Trickey told
Farmer that Hess and Getto sold sefenty
pounds OF ear corn for a busheI. They
were freishting at that time and most
OF the dealers who sold feed corn would
give three half bushels OF ear corn for
4 bushel. and when the ears were large
any farmer could tell about how much
corn the teamster would get for a bushel-
Like many others Farmer went TO the
store OF the two merchants 70 trade il
order 10 get seventy pounds OF ear corn
Tor a bushel.
In 1874 when the grasshoppers came and
devastated what little crops had s=T-
vived the drouth. Farmer was breaking
prairie down on Deer Creek and trdng
in Derby. The people had 70 MONEY and
the little stores at Derby were unable

one day he came 70 Wichita and went

this was a ground hog case and he would
have 70 furnish him with tobacco enough
70 run him until the breaking season
opened the next spring. Peter said:
Farmer, this is q pretty tough propo-
sition because you have not traded any
with Us for over 2 year. and all cur
regular customers are hard Up"
He called Mr.. Hess into the consulta-
ton and Hess finally said: Peter. lets
leave Farmer have the tobacco" He
took his tobacco home and al winter he
and his friends sat b. the fire Of cotton
wood and smoked their pipes % peace
and contentment- When the breaking sea
