This Day in History: 1955-04-09

A.J. Winter and Son advertised their new garden department. They had a special sale on renting lawn rollers and fertilizers for twenty-five cents a day. Most fertilizers were priced at $2.25 for a fifty pound bag. Lime was sixty-five cents a bag and top soil was fifteen dollars a truck load. Their store was located where the old post office was on Ramapo Avenue near the train station. (Bristow)
