EVERY FARMER NEEDS 

 A GOOD TELEPHONE 



ITS CHEAPER TO 

 TALK THAN WALK 



A telephone on the farm is a "saver" in a great 

 many ways. It increases the working force by 

 decreasing the necessity for so many trips to 

 town and to the neighbors. It adds security by 

 providing means for quick communication in 

 time of misfortune and distress. There is no 

 question as to the teleplione being a paying in- 

 vestment for the farmer. The only question is, 

 which telephone is the best for the farmer to buy? 



Stromberg- Carlson 



Telephones 



are built better than the ordinary telephone, so 

 that they are especially adapted to the farmer's 

 use. Every piece and part that go to make 

 up a complete telephone are made by skilled 

 specialists in our own plant — the largest inde- 

 pendent telephone factory in the world — made 

 with minute care and thoroughly tested before 

 leaving our hands; that's why they give best 

 service, that's why there are more of them in use 

 than of all others combined, that's why it is the 

 telephone to buy. Many other good reasons are 

 contained in our new book, "How the Tele- 

 phone Helps the Farmer," which will in- 

 terest you if you are going to buy one or 

 a hundred telephones. Write today — 

 ask for book 36-L — we send it free.

Before j'ou buy roof- 

 int,' for any building, from 

 a small poultry house to the 

 largest mill or factory, it will pay 

 you to get samples and complete 

 proofs of quality from the oldest mak- 

 ers of ready roofing in America. (We 

 originated the roll of roofing ready to lay 

 with fixtures packed in the center.)
