The merger idea is talk 8 old in

there was incorporated wi state

Douds-Leando is two litt towns

gion. 1t now turns out - the in

at Leando; George Rambo and Gilbert
McGill who have general stores at
Douds. a. A. McCrary, lumber dealer
at Douds, and fourteen prominent farm
ers and stockmen of the vicinity. The
purpose of the company is to effect a
merger of all the mercantile business
of the two small towns and to establish
hot more than two stores instead OF
the large number of establishments
struggling for a living. The leading
consumers among the farmers Of the
county have been interested in it and
the big merger is to be operated partly
as cooperative concern for the bene-
fit of the farmers. The region is a rich
agricultural section and the farmers
are generally wealthy, and this new
company will be abundantly able to
control all the business of the town.
