To All Of Our Many Lancaster County Customers and Friends:
Thank you for giving us the opportunity of doing business
with you and for the fine cooperation you extended to our
company this past year.
As we start a New Year, it is usually customary to look
back over the past year and see what we have accomplished. As
we did this, we found that more HORNCO Feed was used, by far.
than ever before in our company's history. In fact for 12
straight years more HORNCO Feed has been used than the year
before. For this we can thank only you, our many fine customers.
It is indeed a pleasure to do business with the people of
Lancaster County.
During the coming year our company will be doing
everything in our power to make HORNCO Feed and HORNCO Services
even better than they were in 1968.
We are indeed looking forward to another year of pleasant
business relations.

‘‘Service makes the Difference”
APPLY LIME
ON FROZEN
GROUND
Don’t hesitate to apply lime, even if the ground
is frozen. The freezing and thawing action of
Winter helps disseminate the lime, assuring you
a properly balanced soil, ready for Spring
plowing. And remember, liming pays in extra
bushels and tons of crops and forage.
