It is importAPt that farmers
should be informed as to the object
and methods of this Curb (MbrkeL
It does not cost them one penny
to hrlng Qtieir produce to Athens
and put it on salo for all the ex
penses are borne by the citizens
and neither are they required to
sell tlielr produce at markets, but
they ran peddlo it over town aad
sell tlielr! regular elastomers or
others if they prefer.
The object and mission of this
Curb Market are to bring buyer
and seller together, that they may
deal first hand and direct with
one another.' It will cut out com
missions or middle men. When the
local demand of any article Is sup
plied, Mrs. Troutman will investi
gate other markets, so that the
farmer will know just where to
ship his stuff. If he has perishable
produce he can put It in the cold
storage plant and'thus preserve it
Our farmers complain that they
cannot. find a market for their
surplus produce and this fact
deters them from planting such
crops. But with a Curb Market,
such ns will be inaugurated in
Athens, a sale will be found for
any and every manner of produce
a farmer has, and it is not neces
sary to waste a day .peddling from
house to house over town, but ‘6h
certain days he has only to (bring
ft to the Curb Market and there
meet the citizens and buyers.
IMPORTANT
MOVEMENT
f * ...
And let me urge upon our citr
ons, and especially our ladles, the
Importance of attending these Curb
Markets. In so dClhg they not only
render valuable service to their
city and/ aid the farmers but they
cap buy fresh and at first hand all
manner of country produce and have
the pick of the market They can
meet these country people and af*
range .for any special article their
need. •
“I consider this Curb Market one
of the most important movements
ever inaugurated In Athens. It will
enable our farmers to grow other
money crops than cotton, and put
cash in circulation, which of course
will help trade. By all means at<
tend the openinr of the Curb Mar
ket in Athens. The first market
will be held next Saturday morn
ing, May 6th. Let' us. all attend It
and make that day a red letter
day for Athens. . * >

There -are two things that ’could
