What MARMILL Has Done For Markham
In five short years Markham Village has been materially altered. No longer is it a sleepy unknown village "a million miles from nowhere." Markham Village is known throughout Ontario and the rest of Canada, and as far as the West Indies - through the production of the famous Marmill Scientifically Mixed Feeds, at the great new feed plant that towers over Markham Station. Summarized Marmill has: -
1. Provided regular employment for a number of men and boys.
2. Provided a greater market for locally grown grains.
3. Made Markham known by extensive publicity to the outside world, with a view to attracting other industries to Markham and so supplying more employment in Markham.
Marmill has always stood for progress and greater Markham prosperity. So it will always.
What Markham Prosperity Means to You
As Markham progresses, so will all residents prosper. Increased business for local industries means better education; and better place in which to live, to learn, and to work.
You too, can help. Wherever and whenever the opportunity occurs, its up to the youth of Markham to boost their own village - to propagate to the outside world just what Markham stands for, with its great scientific mixed feed industry.
A Word on Scientific Farming
Some of you will no doubt later be directly interested in Scientific Feeding. Reesors Marmill Limited are ready to help you - to advise and instruct you on proper feeding methods, to give you the benefit of their experience and research in this all important branch of scientific farming.
Just as an automobile is a surer, speedier, and more comfortable mode of transport, than the old push bicycle, so are Scientific Mixed Feeds as superior to the antiquated home mixed feeds, in the results produced.
An Invitation
The Directors of Reesors Marmill Limited invite you to visit and inspect Markham's wonderful new feed plant. Make up a party and phone Markham 96 and make necessary arrangements.
