He kept the books jor a week and all of the tlate-nut sandwiches he could eat. llo-er noticed that the farmers of the southern California were ycn ors, off than he was.

He began thinking about thi. and he concluded that if all the roadside stands were placed together in a location right in town, thev would do better.

He explained bis idea to I red Bet k. a friend who was an advertising fellow. Fred thought it wa a good idea too. So together they started looking for a big field in town where the farmers could bring their vegetables. i imd it o.lti' tlie I(J i 1NI si i i i U1 fy'-X' 1 "7" or years back in history the mini' of Jan Ken is kimiira told tie.
