WEALTH BY BILLIONS
VALUE OF FARM PRODUCTS FOR
THE YEAR 1907.
VIVA THE EARTH PRODUCES
Aqriculturalists Have It in Their
Power to Curtail the Operation Of
Trusts and Prevent Unequal
Distribution Of Money.

Farms of the United States in 1907
will produce more wealth than all the
gold mines of the world have produc-
ed in 20 years. Conservative estimates
place the value of all farm products at
approximately $1,000, 000,0 900, or about
5000, 100000 more than their value in
1906. The farmer is the magician, the
alchemist, that makes use of nature to
enrich the world. The farmers corn
crops alone average billion dollars
q year, and all the other cereals an
other billion, with cotton, tobacco, hay
and flax worth another billion, and the
fruits, garden truck and animals a few
billions more. Thus it can be seen that
the farmer, produces wealth greater
than taken from it by the miners for
its precious gems and minerals. There
Is no other foundation for the wealth
and business of the world other than
the land. Men cannot eat gold; the
coal is only useful to him as a means
of utilizing what the earth grows;
there is nothing in the mineral world
that will sustain life, or anything that
Is necessary unless mortals eat, drink
and wear clothes. When there is
abundance of agricultural productions,
there are prosperous times, and fam
Inc when the opposite occurs. The
whole financial fabric, the entire COM
mercial system, is dependent upon the
farmer, and his work.
One billion dollars is an amount be-
yond the comprehension of the aver
age man. The life of an individual is
not sufficiently long to count it cent
by cent should he work ten hours a
day, from his tenth year. until death.
This is the average value of the corn
crop alone that the farmers of the
United States produce yearly.
One would believe that if only a
small portion of the vast wealth,
which the farmers produce could be
only retained in the agricultural COM
munities, there would be class of
rich men greater than in any CONNER
cial community. Yet statistics show
that for the amount Of wealth yearly
produced, the farmers are retainers of
only small portion of it. The tend
ency is toward concentration of
wealth in great financial centers 1t is
in these places, and by the control of
this great wealth, that trusts are built
up, and the machinery put in opera
ton that Systematically draws from
the Agricultural sections the great
wealth produced. Farmers can, if they
will, bring about a change by a sim
pie adherence to the home trade prin-
ciple; by patronage of local business
institutions instead of the concerns in
the large cities. D. M. CARR.

the amounts that represent the sur

Quite often women through their anx-

nothing. If you desire to purchase
$40 or $40 worth of groceries, the best
place to buy them is at some re-.
sponsible grocery establishment in
your own town. You can see what
you are getting, and you know that the
goods must be good or you can re-
turn them. When you get premium
with a lot of soaps or spices or ex-
tracts, you will find that while the
goods may appear all right, there is a
great chance of fraud that you little
look for. The bars of soap will be
OF light weight, poorly dried, made Of
cheaper materials, and would be dear
at your home store at hak the price
that you are compelled to pay for
them. The spices will be half ground

made from fruit flavors, but out of the
dirty-looking coal.tar, a by-product of
gas-manufacturing. and even the teas
and coffees will be of the poorest kind
and doctored up to look we'll. Then
how about the premiums? You will
find that they, too, are of the cheapest
class, and could be purchased at the
local store for half what they are
represented to be worth. Women are
only doing their duty in trying to as.
sist their husbands, but too often they
waste money by patronizing premium
and club concerns that operate from
distant cities in small towns and ru-

CRIES OF THE SIREN,
Alluring Promise Made in Exaqgerat.
ed Advertisements to Gain Trade.

Don't be robbed" "Save the profits
that your storekeeper makes" and
many like catch phrases is the princi-
pal advertising stock of the concerns
who claim to sell at Wholesale"
prices direct to consumers. Their ar
guments appeal to women and men
who have little knowledge of CONNER
cial methods. 1t is the appeal of self
ishness that wins for the concerns
who seek business among the resi-.
dents of farming districts rather than
any merit that the arguments present
ed may have.
There can be little doubt as to the
mail-order way of doing business be-
ing permanent fixture in the mercan.
tile world. The fact cannot be dis.
puted that in certain lines of goods
which are offered as leaders" lower
prices are quoted than like goods are
generally sold at in local stores. But
the average price on all lines cannot
be lower, character and quality con.
sidered, than the same goods could be
sold at by the local merchant.
The business of the big mail-order
concerns has been gained by extensive
advertising and continuous aggressive
work. 1t has been the apathy of the
merchants in the country towns that
has allowed these concerns to take
trade from under their very noses"
Conditions that allow the steady drain
of money from the agricultural dis
tricts and small towns to the big cities
are to be deplored. There cannot be
doubt as to the evils of the mail-order
systems as factor in the concentra.
ton of wealth in the great financial
centers, and the resultant building up
of trusts. For the past quarter Of a
century the trust evil has been con-
stantly developing and keeping pace
with it, is the mail-order system.
Much like the leprosy, it's progress is
such that the evil has firm foothold
ere serious attention is paid to it. The
cry Of 'Save the dealers profits" is
synonymous with kill the industries
of your own town; help US bind the
trust ties firmer about your own
hands" Don't be a traitor to your
home town, even though there is a
promise of small saving in cents and
dollars. Do your part to head off the
business concentration evil.

silver was yawning open-empty.
1t wasn't the psychological moment

state of affairs that could often be
relied upon to furnish diversion for
the sprightly twins. 1t often led to
such amusing complications that the

lilly, uncertain how to proceed with
the little comedy, opened the purse
in her hand. Batchelder, mistaking
the motive, said imperatively:

TO be sure, they could not know that
