certain party went to Sioux Falls,
paying fare both ways, and bought a
cloak, made by the same house and
of the same number, and of the same
goods both in weight and value, and
paid for the Sioux Falls cloak $l8,
when the buyer could have got the
home cloak for $l5. Counting differ
ence in price of cloak, fare and per-
haps dinner, the Canton party lost
about IS by going away from home to
do a little trading. Every time our
home people go away or send away
for goods they get skinned. Give
your home merchants a chance to
save you money before patronizing
outsiders who would give you no cred
it If you lost every hog and steer on
the farm. Our Canton merchants
buy just as cheap rs the merchants
in larger towns, and a sell cheaper,
because their expenses are lighter.
