WILL IMPROVE
;, armers & Merchants Telephone Co.
One of Monroe'S Growing
Enterprises.

From the first the Farmers &
Merchants Telephone Co. has been
ono Of Monroe Citys most success
tuI business enterprises. From a
few phones it has grown month by
month and the plant has had to be
enlarged from time to time. Once
more the capacity of the company
has been reached and more lines
can be put in. This however will
soon be overcome as the company
IS arranging 70 put in 1000 or 5000
feet of cable and other improve
ments. The question Of putting the
cable under ground is being serious
ly considered This plan has many
advantages, altho there are disad-
Vanta5es. The stock of this com
pany is owned by Monroe people.
1t is purely home enterprise and
deserves the support and hearty CO.
operation Of every person who is
interested in building up Monroe
City and her enterprises. To talk of
working for home and then failing
to stand by the Farmers & Mer-
chants Telephone is to use words as
tinkling symbols only it is not
! practically standing by your home
and dong your part to make Mon
roe City a better and more prosper
GUS town.
No telephone company in a town
like Monroe City gives better service
than the Farmers & Merchants and
its number of phones has been con-
stantly growing so that now if a
person desires to talk to the great
est number of patrons of telephones
in and around Monroe City the
Farmers & Merchants Telephone
Co. must be used. The number is
constantly increasing. Telephone
users cannot afford to be without
the F. & M. system. During March
II new phones were put in and
others are waiting and will come in
at the earliest date possible. If you
are still out better arrange to get in
both the home and place of bust,
ness. Monroe City should stand
together in all her enterprises, and
she has none more prosperous than
is the F. & M. Telephone Co. Dc
your part toward making it more
prosperous.
