HELPS FOR TOWN BUILDERS.

Strangers to a town form their
opinions as to its people by the ap-
pearance OF the business places and
the residences. In a town where the
buildings are dingy and dirty, and the
show windows of the stores are care
lessly arranged, it is evidence that
there Ia a lack of enterprise. 1t pays
the business men of town to be care
full as to the exterior appearances of
their places of business.
Small towns usually contain but few
expensive residences. 1t matters little
how inexpensively built residences are
If the buildings are kept well painted
and the yards neat and clean. This
is evidence of the good taste of the
people.
In many towns in country districts
there are hitching posts placed here
and there before the stores. It. is gen
orally the case that where the hitch
ing post is found, unless the street is
well paved, there is mud hole.
Every town that Is incorporated
should have regulations as to the
placing Of hitching posts indiscrimin-
ately in the streets. There should be
set aside some side street that is CON
venient to the business portion of the
town, where the farmers and others
can hitch their teams instead of in
front Of the stores.
Good sidewalks give the strangers
to town favorable impression of
the place, and also they are an advan-
tage In many ways and may prove a
matter of economy through the pre-
yention Of accidents that might give
cause for damage against the town
corporation.
Nearly every small town has It's
public park. 1t is often noticed that
these parks are little cared for. They
are public pastures and serve no good
purpose as places where the people
OF the town can meet evenings Tor
social intercourse. People OF towns
should take pride in keeping the pub
lie parks in good condition. They can
be made beauty spots with but little
effort and expense.

WIDENING THE FIELD
MAKING GREATER OPPORTUNITY
FOR SONS OF FARMERS.
BUILDING UP THE HOME TOWN
Some Causes for Complaint Which
Can Be Obiterated by the
United Efforts Of the
People.

doW often do We hear It said that
the young man has not the opportun-
ity that the young man Of q score Of
years ago had. How great is the COM
plant Of trusts and combinations
which control industries to the detri
ment of the smaller ones in business.
ana how often is reference made to
business concentration in the large
cities at the cost of the smaller
towns
Innovations in business methods
have been many. 1t may be said that
this is an era OF economical methods:
that evolution is going on continually
broadening the field for individual
enort aud making possible the opera
ton OF mammoth enterprises. There
can be no doubt as to the detrimental
ehects upon small towns OF this busi-
ness concentration in the larger cities.
Pessimists deplore the lack OF oppor-
tunity for the young men OF to-day.
At the same time the large corpora
ttons put forth the cry that there Is a
scarcity of the right kind of material
for important places of trust. How
evident, and that is, small towns being
kept from advancing narrows the
field for the young men who would
otherwise enjoy an opportunity to en-
gage in business.
Travelling to the large city for en-
ployment, the youth. perhaps. seeks a
clerkship at moderate wages. There
nf 0th "a ret
compete with in the race for success.
His field is narrowed. 1t is not often
that he has fair competition, and IA
vorttsm he finds Is one OF the obstruc-
tions in his way. One of the cures
for this condition Is 70 devise means
OF enlarging the scope and Importance
OF the socalled country towns.
There is no economical reason why
the large city should have the bust.
ness that rightfully belongs to the
small t-vn. There is no saving in
buying goods at distant point even
though small percentage may be
saved directly Whenever resident
OF community sends his money to
some other community for the neces
stiles that he requires, he robs his
own home town of a certain amount
OF business. Employment is given 70
the people of the large city instead OF
the people Of the local community.
1t has been estimated that more
than SO per cent. Of the trade goe.
from some communities to larger
cities. II this trade were given to the
home town, 1t would Immediately dou
BILE its business importance and give 8
corresponding increase in employment
tor the people. This means that the
population of the town would be in
creased and the opportunity for en-
gaging in business would be greater
Not only this, but 1t is an established
principle that values of farm lands tc
great extent are dependent upon the
activity of the town near which the
farms may be located Thus it is
plain that II the sons of farmers
would have greater opportunities oper
to them for engaging in business, il
can be increased by closely adhering
TO the home trade and home protec
ton principle, which widens the loca
field for individual effort in business
