Who can use Old Marge’s Manor’s abilities?

Rules Questions: Doomtown

Old Marge’s Manor says the following:

The controller can use ghost rock on this deed to pay for action cards or gadget abilities during shootouts.

React, Boot: Before making a play, move all ghost rock counters (not bounty) from a card you control to this deed.

Noon, Boot: Place 1 ghost rock on this deed.

Unlike most deeds, the abilities are not “Controller React, Boot” or “Controller Noon, Boot”. So who can use them? Is it only the owner, even if they don’t control the feed? Can both players use them as they see fit?

Abilities on deeds lost the “controller” part at some point as intended to avoid superfluous wording. It should be treated as if it said “controller react, boot” or “controller noon, boot”

You can use the ability on a deed if you control it, and it isn’t an “owner” ability.
