Belle’s Box – 127

This entry is part 129 of 342 in the series Belle's Box

Read about this series of posts, regarding items in a box originally owned by Belle (Lamunion) Fellows Tinker here. The cast of characters is located here. And, there is an accounting of people about whom I have little information here.

E.T. Meredith, publisher
Home of Successful Farming Pub. Co
Des Moines Iowa

127f

I can’t read the postmark on this card, which is addressed to:

Charles
Tinker
R1
Manton

127b

9-30/19
Bring over
some Corn
Ties right
away.
C.E.S.

The only reasonable reference to “corn ties” that I have found, talks about the process of making corn shocks. Since this card was mailed on the last day of September, it makes sense that the writer was shocking his corn stalks. Charlie Tinker was a jack of all trades, he probably had a certain type of corn tie that the local farmers wanted to use.

Who C.C.S. is will remain a mystery without further information.
