—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, April t, 1971 22 Life on the farm just wouldn’t be the same without the nearby country store. On many a day, a short trip to “Sinclair’s" was all that was needed to keep.a project going. Country stores are amazing in the inventories they keep, and their proprietors are extraordinary in knowing not just what merchandise they have on hand and exactly where it is, but also in knowing all their customers and something about the many applications their products are used for. It's service on a person to person basis, not by number. And if you came without your wallet -- well, that was okay too. Modern in a good many ways, the good old country store is old-fashioned in relationships with customers That’s the way a farmer likes it. We never had much of an in ventory for anything at home on our farm except for all the sizes of bolts we seeming u never needed and different things (old parts, mostly) Forage-ability PLUS! The big-capacity Field Queen 7600 from Hesslon. Unmatched in its class! Model 7600 is also available with a 350° rotating truck spout that lets you blow forage to either side of the machine Unique hydraulic rebevel grinder (optional) lets you maintain knife bevel right in the field which we saved in case we needed them some day. Of course, the bolts and parts we needed were almost always those we didn’t have on hand. Or even if we did, it was the one we just saw the day before yesterday, but couldn’t remember just where it was. Then a day after we purchased a new item, we found the old part we had kept for a “rainy day." Just the same, it saved time and aggravation to solve the problem at "Sinclair's.” Stocking everything from fen ceposts and dishes to birthday cards and plumbing supplies, the country store is just what the farmer needs to accomplish his many tasks. Where else could a man who wears the hat of a dozen or more professions find the merchandise he needs? The country store is a corner grocery, hardware store, paint shop, ice cream parlor, drug store, apparel outlet, builders’ supply house, and “5 and 10" all rolled into one. Life on the farm surely wouldn’t be the same without them. i For Dairy & Poultry Farmers - the new I I MARTIN V-MODEL semi-liquid spreader j I (patent pending). < !
