Home Patrons the Real Bene
factors.

1t is purely selfish motives that
cause people to patronize mail
order' houses. They think they
can buy little cheaper than at
home. which as a rule, is not true;
but suppose it were true, they are
building up outside stores at the
expense of their own home mer-
chants. The effect is not noticeable
at once, but the home stores and
home market must depreciate as
the home patronage is withdrawn.
If good stores AND home market
are not valuable why is it that
land is worth several times as
much when close to a good town!
In this connection it should be
noted that the newspaper publish
ers, with rare exceptions, are loyal
to their home and country. Few
persons sending away for goods in
order to save few cents know
that every editor can get two or
three times as much for advertis-
ing space from the mail order
houses as the home merchants
pay. But the editor looks ahead,
he knows that as the home mer-
chants are starved out the need of
the mail order houses advertising
will decrease.
The merchants are often to
blame. An Oklahoma editor was
at the depot and saw a farmer get
a set of harness from Chicago.
He tried to prove to the farmer
that he could have bought the
harness of a local dealer just as
cheap, etc. But" said the farm
er, this is the first time / ever
knew there was harness shop in
town. I have taken your paper
five years and have never seen a
word in it about harness"
1t is not the men who donate
city parks, build churches and
libraries WIN are the great bene-
factors to their towns, for they
are few in number, but the men
who set the right example by pat
ronizing home institutions even
when they think they can do a
little better by sending away
The newspaper should try tc
arouse interest in trading at home
for it is of vital interest to both
town and country, eventually af'
fecting the price of real estate

cry industry and activity. Clay

Everything
for
Poultry.

Those who are fortunate
enough to have a flock of
poultry this season, should
take care to keep it in con-
dition as chickens are the
best money-makers you can
have. We have everything
that practical poultry men
use to get the best results
from their f1ocks. Ground
oyster shell and grits to fur
nish material for the shells
and Lees Egg Maker to keep
them in condition and supply
egg-making materials. This
preparation never fails to in-
crease the production of eggs.
If you want to make your
poultry pay the best profit
possible you need these
things. They will pay for
themselves several times over
