Every farmer should have some
writing paper and envelopes printed
with the name of the farm and himself
thereon. 1t is cheaper than buying
blank paper and envelopes in small
quantities and gives an impression of
up-to-dateness to the farmer using such
stationery. Call in and see samples at
the MESSENGER Office when you are in
town. You will be surprised at the
cheapness of printed stationery.
