Announcing New Owners of LUSK FEED STORE

Effective September 1, 1947, Tom Moody and son, Hubert Moody, purchased from me the Lusk Feed Store.

They plan to operate the store in the same location, just west of the C. & N. W. depot, and will carry the same line of feeds. They are men who know livestock needs, and will operate a fine store.

While expressing appreciation for the fine patronage given me, I hope my customers will give the new owners the same consideration.

Harry Brown Buys Lusk Feed Store

Harry Brown has purchased the Lusk Feed Store from Herb Moody and changed the name of the business to Ranchers' Feed Service. The change was effective Saturday.

Mr. Brown is a native son of Niobrara County. He was reared on a ranch in the Keeline are and was employed by the McNeil Construction Co. at Lance Creek for several years. Recently he has been selling Moor Mans' feeds. 

Mr Brown said that Ranchers' Feed Service will continue to sell the complete line of Mead feeds plus the complete line of Moor Man's. With these two lines, Ranchers' Feed Service will be able to offer the two top feeds needed in this area, he says. He plans to do considerable calling on ranchers in this area.

Mr. Moody has no immediate plans other than to take a vacation. He has operated the Lusk Feed Store since September 1947.
