The farm- er is considered a good stolen car prospect, and if the stolen car broker finds a fertile field for his wares in one farm community, he may go back again and again, disposing of his cars in that vicinity. That is why whole fleets of stolen cars are some- times driven back to the cities by de- tectives.
