[image: a pen and ink caricature of a balding man with a large mustache, dressed as a country gentleman. He has a rooster, crowing, in his left hand, a scroll with writing on it in his front jacket pocket and a rake in his right hand. He stands in front of a fruit tree with a chicken, potatoes, a turnip, and an ear of corn cavorting around his feet. A sign stating "Real Estate For Sale" is in the far background]

                   WILLIAM EATON, CAMDEN.

A MAN who farms for pleasure With all his might and main, Director of the Camden Mills, With Real Estate in train---- Just this is William Eaton. On crops and cows he dotes, But 'tis on hens most steadily They say he casts his votes, Authority you'll find him On each green thing that grows--- From early "cuke" to Hubbard Squash, Both root and branch he knows. Sir, Eaton's like his produce--- None better to be found; His judgment and his mind Are wholesome, ripe and sound.
