520    I've seen a fly make a bull switch his tail is a homespun 
       quip attributed to Emerson Carey, the powerful salt 
       magnate of Hutchinson, Kansas. True or not, the quote 
       epitomizes the fearless and tenacious character of the 
       legend who became Reno County's benefactor. Young, 
       awestruck Carey arrived in boomtown 1880s Hutchinson and 
       went on to create an immense empire. Coal, ice, salt, 
       strawboard, egg cases, bags, soda ash and streetcars -- he
       presided over it all. From Carey's sleeping in a coal yard
       with a quarter in his pocket to the founding of the 
       exclusive Willowbrook community and attaining a net worth 
       of more than $15 million, authors Lynn Ledeboer and Myron 
       Marcotte relate the epic story.".
