largest amount of good could be attained
by buying in bulk or by wholesale. This.
| think, | could demonstrate if it was my
purpose to do SD. Capital invested in
manufacturing keeps a large per cent, at
home. There is the amount of the sales,
the material, its cost in a great measure,
the labor, the sale and consumption of the
products of the country at home. Now.
we must consider the vast sum expended
for agricultural implements by the farmer,
the exhorbitant prices paid, coupled with
the fact that all the money now expended
goes away from home to make others
richer and VIC poorer, when it is in the
power Of the Grange to manufacture all
these articles ofprime necessity at a saving
from % to 80 per cent. at least. For illus
~tratiOn, | will take the price of the Avery
Plough, large size, which Is sold by agents
ut from SIG to S22. or something near that.
Now, | assert that it can be stocked for
81 .50-that all the other fixtures can be
purchased OF manufactured for SO. But
say the whole cost S9--you see, on q single
plough, 81 will be saved. So in reference
to almost every other implement used.
In my next | will propose a plan think
entirely feasible, and speak OF the superior
advantages possessed by Tennessee IA a
manufacturing point. G..
