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. . * > ^ ‘ a' New Company to Be Chartered Here Harry W„ Thomas R. and John E.
