Lincoln Mutual

The Lincoln Mutual #2 was formed as a cooperative by several of the area granges (Spring Creek Grange, West Deep Creek Grange). Initially it took over the buildings of John Raymer and Company when it was founded in 194_. When Billy Hopkins retired in __, they took over the space of the adjacent Reardan Meat Market. They provided groceries, butchering and frozen goods storage. At the plant north of the railroad tracks, they also provided gasoline and farm hardware as well as delivery of bulk oil products to farms.
