THEHOMETOWNF1RSTBUYING IN OWN LOCALITY TENDS

TO KEEP THE MONEY AT

HOME.

If YOU OW MOSPERAENHtLPSupposing All Were Catalog Buyers,

What Would Be the Result?-L.

Why, Our Town Would Soon

Be Gone.

Industry is the basis of all prosper-ity-back of industry is demand.Without a demand for its goods orservices no enterprise can live, butwith it all thrive. It follows thenthat where there is the greatest de-mand for the goods and services ofthe people of a community, there willbe found the greatest prosperity.Money has no intrinsic worth; its

value is derived from the labor it rep-resents and every dollar spent in acommunity stands for an equalamount of labor in that place, pro-vided all of the dollar remains in thecommunity. 1‘50 per cent goes tosome other town or to eastern fac-tories, then only the remaining 50 percent represents industry in the hometown. This is the great economic rea-son why loyal citizens should patron-ize their home industries. In buyingarticles produced in their own local-ity all the money spent is kept athome, it employs labor and produceswealth and prosperity. Of coursehome production can not supply allour wants. Our demands are too !flir-ted and we must draw tu some extent,on all parts of the world, but it Is notto the interest of the people of thistown to buy goods produced or sold inChicago or New York when the samecommodities are produced or sold athome.. If you want this community to pros-per spend and Invest your money athome.The man who habitually sends his

money east to the big catalog housesI, either ignorant of these fundamen-tal economic principles or he has agrudge against his own community. Ineither case he Is a detriment to thecommunity, a handicap upon Its prog-ress and prosperity.Every man who earns a livelihood

or draws a salary in a community Issatisfying a certain demand. Heshould therefore create an equivalentdemand by spending his money, No faras he can, in the community where itwas obtained. If he does not do thishe is taking away from his communityand giving nothing in return; he isrobbing the community of Its re-sources, bank account and prospertfe.

Population Is invariably drawn bybusiness activity. The growth of linecities is due not so much to climaelcor social advantages as it is to theopportunities afforded of earning aeveehood. Some 20 or 30 years agoapproximately two-thirds of the pop-ulation of the United Slates was Inthe small towns and country districts,with only one-third In the cities. Nowthe situation is just about reversed,two-thirds of the people are in toecities and only one-third in the coun-try. And this growing congestion isresponsible not only for the high costof living but also for most of the ex-isting social and industrial evils. Itis not for us to say whether or notthese Influences and tendencies canbe resisted; they are wrong and det-rimental to the best interests of thenation and we should use our best en-ergies b.!, correct them. Education,right living and right buying and sell-ing will do much to reverse the tideand get the social machinery runningIn better, healthier and more prosper-ous channels.One of the powerful factors that has

helped bring about these undesirableconditions is the lure df the cataloghouses, which tend to rob the eoult-try districts and small towns of alarge part of their local business andprosperity. It Is not that better val-ues can be obtained from these out-side concerns; It is not that their ser-vice Is better. Experience and faircomparisons have In many cases dent°nitrated that better results may besecured by patronizing the home mer.chants. It is simply the lure of thefar-away and the fascination of theprinted page.

MINES AND MINERS

The Bunker Hill Mining & iponoeneating company, operating mines andmills at Wardner-Kellogg, Idaho, Mon-day began disbursement of the regu-lar monthly dividend of $66,400. Thiswill make the payments for the cur-rent year $523,200 and the grand total$14,484,950.

Enraged over the accident recently,when two of their fellows lost theirlives and several others were injured,500 men employed on the Allouez oredocks at West Superior, Wis., whohave been on a strike since the acci-dent, refuse to resume work until con-ditions, which they claim caused theaccident, are removed.

The stockholders of the NationalMining Co. at a meeting at hfullan.Idaho, Tuesday, increased the capitalstoch from 1,250,000 to 2,000,000share': The company has arranged tospend $300,000 in development work,which will include a 500-ton concen-trator and a two-mile electric railwayto convey the ore from the mines tothe concentrator.

Anent Cattle Shortage.

Dr. A. D. Melvin, chief of the Gut-ter States bureau of animal industry.estimates the annual loss from tuber-culosis In livestock at $23,000,000.Texas fever and cattle tick cause evenlarger losses, says Chicago Retaiers'Journal.These and other facts are set forth

by Edward Marshall In au article onthe beef shortage, published la theMay number of the Housewives'League Magazine. In seven years, be-ginning with 1907. Mr. Marshall shows'while the population has averaged toIncrease by ,more than a million anda half, each twelvemonth the numberof beef catths In this country has di-minished by 15.636,000, or neatly 30per cent." This, he says, "Is the Mgreason at the back of high beefprices."These conditions are not improving.

From January I to March 10 of thepresent year there was a decrease of77,951 In the receipts of cattle at sixbig western markets. This is shownby the figures compiled by the bureauof animal industry. Mr. lLarshall saysIn his article that the shortage is real-ly world-wide. The European marketsare suffering almost as much as thoseof the United States. Neither SouthAmerica nor Canada has IV Istiolusof cattle and cannot be looked to asa source of supply. "It Is evident,"says Mr. Marshall, "that we must relymainly upoe our own resources." Hecontinues:"According to the census we have

29.000,000 more peoPle to feed than-we had twenty years ago. and Ameri-cans are the greatest meat eaters inthe world. A recent careful official es-timate show' the annual consumptionof meat per head of population it, dietinned States to be 162 pounds, ofwhich beef constitutes so pounds andyea/ lei pounds. Thus we annuallyeat, each of us, more than his own av-erage weight In beef. This averageconsumption Is 35 pounds per headgreater than (Irma Britalke and 40pounds greater than that of Gensanyand France'Obviously, therefore, our troubles

Iles much deeper than the packinghouses of Chicago. Kansas City, andet Louis. For the moment, settingaside the argument that we eat toomuch meat and might with wisdom outdown our consumption, the fact remains that we must increase produe-lion or find ourselves coafroated bya notable meat famine, with Watt meet111 for sale held at prices level! higher-really much higher- - than they are atpnetont. This Is not de to any treat;the conditions have boo created bythe population as a whole."

A Good Collector.

A good collector is as resourceful asan old-time Yankee peddler, and thatis going some. Incidentally be ismade; he may be born with certaintraits that are needed in such a man,but they, are nothing more than rawmaterial until hammered into shapeby practical experience, says NationalHardware Bulletin.We know a merchant who had been

trying to collect a considerable bill fornearly a year without success. Thecustomer in question was one of thatkind, which is good so far as his fi-nancial ability was concerned, but badas to his disposition to pay; still hisbusiness might be worth considerableif he could be Induced to pay withoutbeing forced. Coming down to hisstore one morning this merchant sawa couple of pretty Daughters of theRevolution stop his customer on thestreet and without much difficultysmile him into a liberal donation for afair. The merchant went on into hisstore, related the incident to hiscashier, a bright, attractive young wo-man, and said, "Go down and tacklethat man, see if you can get a settle[neat." About ten minutes later thecashier returned, bringing a check forthe full amount. She dimpled slight-ly as she handed the check to the pro-prietor; "I was real nice to him," shesaid.This merchant went through his

ledger and from his knowledge of mostof his customers, was able to select,out of a number of bills that werehanging Are, several that his cashiercollected without difficulty.We often hear the question debated

as to whether or not a woman makesa good collector. From what we haveseen we do not think the question re-quires any debate. A man who hasany chivalry about him can be reach-ed. as In the instance cited in theforegoing, when he is pretty near Im-pervious to anything else outside aresort to the courts.A wide-awake young woman can be

developed Into quite as skillful a col-lector as the proprietor himself. Wedo not recommend this, however, asa blanket proposition; there are debt-ors that can be handled better by oneof the men in the store if he knowshis business, and there are some whocan be handled only by the proprietorhimself. The merchant who handlesthe credit end of his business in asystematic way, will use whichevermeans as In his judgment will bringthe quickest returns.
