lMPoVERlsHEs THE COUNTRY.

The prosperity of any town depends
largely upon the success Of local bust
ness enterprises, and every citizen of
a community should realize this and
help advance local interests and work
against influences which endanger
these interests, such as the mail order
catalogue houses, etc.
There are numbers of so-called
Farmers papers and other cheap Pc
riodicals which are continually advo-
eating city buying and advising their
subscribers to patrOnize the city mar
kets, setting forth as inducements
wonderful bargains. These publica'
tions do this for the benefit of their
advertisers, who support them, and
they know that they are doing great
deal of harm to the country merchants
by drawing away from them their
trade without which they will fail in a
short time.
The longer a dollar is kept In circu-
iation in one place the more good 1t
will do, but when it is taken to an out
side point it is taking that much from
the place, and making it much less
prosperous. When a customer goes TO
an outside town to buy goods the
profit Of each transaction which would
remain in your own town and go from
dealer to dealer is sent away, business
is curtailed, and the RESULT in time is
that the city becomes poorer and poor
er, and eventually is known as an in
significant place, not worthy Of the
title of village.
A town will keep pace with its chief
trading point. If the principal bust
ness interests OF the town fail SO will
the town itself, the price of lands and
produce depends to a great extent on
local conditions, and if these are not
good the land will dwindle in value,
but, If the merchants and citizens gen.
orally are prosperous, the value of
town property will increase, new set
tiers will come and the town will be
built up and prosper.
The success and supremacy OF mail
order houses means the enriching of
some corporation or distant firm at the
expense of numerous home merchants,
1t means concentrating capital and
population at the expense of the coun-
try towns and villages, it means the
failure of individual mercantile enter
prises, and in time will do away alto
gether with a home market, upon
which depends almost entirely the
prosperity Of any city.
The interests of the country mer-
chants are closely allied with their Gus
toners, they select and sell the best
their market can supply, their adver-
tisements can be depended upon and
their goods are reliable, and can be re-
turned if they are not all right. You
cannot return catalogue house goods.
Customers can visit their home store
and see for themselves what they are
purchasing, but when they order
The Ladysmith news and Ingram news. [volume] (Ladysmith, Wis.) 1905-1906, 1905-12-09

through mail order catalogues they are
buying entirely on chance, and in
many cases statements of mail order
houses in their catalogues are entirely
unreliable and cannot be depended
upon. The country merchants are in
general progressive and enterprising:
they are always working for the good
Of their town, they pay good proper
ton Of the city taxes, and encourage
local enterprise and improvements.
The commercial clubs of the differ
emit towns are all composed Of the To-
cal merchants, and it is well-known
fact that town without a commercial
club Ia now considered as unprogres-
sive, and every one knows what good
such organizations accomplish. They
build up the town, make improve
ments, establish new industries, and
look after the interests OF the town In
general, and If there were no mer-
chants there would likely be no COM
mercial associations, SO that the credit
of the substantial influence which the
commercial club has in making town
q commercial center, and in obtaining
good legislation for it and the sur
rounding farming community in mat
tiers OF vital interest to it's citizens is
due largely to the local merchants,
through whose efforts and support
such an organization is kept in exist
ence, so that if the people residing in
the town and nearby country wish to
be ranked as progressive, and to be O.
factor in commercial interests, they
must see that their home merchants
are supported in every way and en-
couraged to do their best for the city's
interest, for a town is always judged
by the number and class Of its stores.
II this is done the mail order houses
will not last long, and the retailer Will
have no need of worrying about their
rightful trade being taken to city at
a distance The cooperation of the
people with their business men Is all
that is necessary and locality where
this rule is followed will soon be rank
ed at the head of progressive CONNER
cial and Industrial centers.-St. Paul
