Bob, I too am calling up some childhood memories, but as I recall there was a Wards Farm Store.
It was similar to a Tractor Supply, catered to the farm/ranch customer. It was a division of Montgomery Ward but in a separate location.
Montgomery Ward did have an extensive catalog sales department. It was "almost" as big as Sears. MW had about everything that Sears did, except for the big ticket items, like house kits. They may have even had those, that was many years ago.
We rarely used the mail order though, that cost extra for shipping. We would just go pick up what we needed, the warehouse was right there at the store, took about 30 minutes for them to pull the order.
That was why we used MW instead of Sears, MW was close by, Sears was on the opposite side of town. Sears didn't have a local warehouse, so anything from the catalog had to be shipped.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
