What Plugging Did!

Have you heard about Stone of Idaho? He's worth
your time and attention.
Perry Stone lives Roberts, in the Egan Bench
district. He had ranch of size which he grew
wheat and things generally He had good crops when
there market and he had poor crops when there
WAS good market He went broke and lost his ranch
Did he whine? Did he call his neghbors together and
talk and send petitions for relief to the government?
If you think he did, you don't know Stone.
He set his jaw leased $50 of farmland, friend
going his security and bucked down to work. That
months ago. He powed and planted every foot of that
farm to russell potatoes Once his seed was in, he went
out and contracted to sell his coming crop of ubers at
$lS5 per 100 pounds Then he went back to the farm
Mnd cultivated and coaxed his plants day after day. from
lsunup to shutdown Just he is harvesting and de-
verng to his market the greatest single crop of potatoes
ever known in Idaho
Stones yield is running 275 bags Of 100 pounds, or
900 bushels to the His total yield will be 1890 900
pounds, and from he win receive S57915 After pay
ing all expenses of rent, seed etc. he will have $4,000
ito show for his work of six months, his risk and his
pluck.
That's the story of Stone of Idaho and his little get
rich-quick scheme.
