AMONG THE FARMERS.
Mr. Farr Starts Out to Canvass For the New County Directory.
Mr. W. E. Farr, who has been canvassing the city for the past two weeks for
advertising and subscribers to his new directory of St. Joseph county, with good success,
starts out on Monday next to canvass in the rural districts.
Mr. Farr will visit every farmer's home in the county for the purpose of
procuring every name accurately and obtaining other information necessary to make the work
correct and complete. He will be found a very polite and pleasant gentleman to deal with
and as he is widely known throughout the county he will no doubt meet with a cordial
reception wherever he goes. Our farmer friends should cheerfully give him all the
information desired in order to help along his commendable enterprise. Mr. Farr intends
to go carefully over every part of the county.
