On the first of the year every farm
er should take an inventory of his
worldly belongings, figure up his ex-
penses for the past year, and deter
mine how much he has made or lost
during the twelve months. Every
farmer should keep set of books,
and be able to tell at the end of the
wear where he has made and on what
he has lost money. He should be as
methodical with his accounts on the
farm as a merchant is in his store.
He should know at the end of the year
what interest he has made on invested
capital, and the return yielded for
his labor. When the farmer appears
in the role of the shrewd, keen bust
ness man. when he knows the value
of his labor, when he knows what it
costs to raise for the market horse,
a COW, hog. bushel of corn, then
he will know what to ask for his pro-
ducts, and he will find some way to
get it.-St. James Journal.

Home Patron a ne


If people generally could be brought
to realize the Importance of support
ing home industries, home merchants
and home tradesmen, the community
in which they live would be much
benefited. 1t is a great mistake to
go away from your own town to pur-
chase articles that can be obtained at
home, just to save few cents. Ev-
cry dollar sent away for goods that
can be furnished by home merchants
cripples business just that much, and
to that extent is a detriment. The
longer dollar can be kept in circula-
ton at home the more good that dol
lar will do the town; and the more
you benefit the town in which you
live, the more you benefit yourself.
Almost every small town sends hun
dreds of dollars yearly to the large
cities for goods that can be had at
home, just as good, and very nearly as
cheap, thinking they are deriving i'm
mense benefit from the few cents
saved, seemingly forgetting that local
dealers and tradesmen are entitled to
their patronage. What the people OF
the smaller towns need to make them
more prosperous and happy is dispo.
sition to aid each other in all legiti.
mate ways, cultivating dispositions of
friendship rather than jealousy and
suspicion. There should be less fault
finding, less back.biting, and less con-
tumely than is generally exhibited.
If all will make up their minds to
spend their dollars and dimes at home,
thereby enrichiDg each other to the
extent of the profit on articles bought
and sold, it will be money well invest
ed, and it will return ten fold in the
future, and be the means of building
up their town. Every penny spent at
home is benefit to somebody, while
every penny sent away is damage to
the community. One fact is I'M
doubtedly overlooked by people who
send away for goods, and that is, the
more business you give your home
merchant the better he is enabled to
give you low prices; and the same is
true of tradesmen and mechanics
