Waveland Independent, 2-11-1954 ? WALTER J. HARPEL

The Walter J. Harpel Seed Co. is located at Shannondale. They process and supply Harpel's Hybrid Corn and field seeds. Genial Walter Harpel was the International Corn King in 1947. Walter, owner of the Walter J. Harpel Seed Co. at Shannondale is one of those progressive business men who have shown his appreciation for his success by his attention to civic matters. His willingness to become a cog in the wheel of community progress, whenever united effort is needed to put over some movement or project advanced for the good of the community has always been taken for granted. His quiet assumption of responsibility not only in connecton with his business but in regard to other matters as well, has often lent a feeling of confidence to others interested in the same movements.
