If we’re gonna continue doing business like this, is there any wonder people say, *no one can make money farming.* Maybe^ypu can't and could be tnat .i d fail' too, but one thing for sure those cows from Page are still coming to Rappahannock.

If a man stays in the farming business from Page (or Tim-Buck-Too) I for one, believe he can if he lives in Rappahannock; that is if he wants to.
