TRADE AT HOME
Why Farmer Should Glue
His Support to the
Local Merchant.
PRESERVES HIS OWN MARKET
Depreciation of Village Property
Must Inevitably Mean Deprecia-
ton of Agricultural Property
and Encouragement of
Monopoiv.

Copyright. 1906. by Alfred c. Clark.)
The most serious problem that con-
fronts the rural towns and villages
of this country is the competition of
fered local enterprises by the cata-
logue houses of the large cities. 1t is
problem for which a solution must
be found if the prosperity and sta
bility Of the nation is to stand.
And the solution of this great prob
lem lies in the ham; of the people Of
the towns and villages and the farms,
especially the farms.
The people of the rural communities
have everything to lose and nothing
to gain by sending their money to
the catalogue houses, by passing by
their local merchants and sending
their dollars to the concerns who have
absolutely no interest in their COM
munities.
These catalogue houses do not pay
taxes in your town; the local mer-
chant does. They do not build side
walks in your town; the local mer-
chant does. They do not contribute
to the building of roads over which
the crops of the farms are hauled to
market; the local merchant does.
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1907-01-19

In disposing Of that he is absolutely
dependent upon his local merchant,
and by his patronage of the catalogue
houses he has killed competition, and
must now take whatever is offered for
what he has to SELL
Mr.. Farmer, are you helping to kill
the goose that is laying your golden
egg?
Are you sending your dollars to the
catalogue houses and by so doing kill
ing the local industries of your town?
Are you putting your merchants out
of business. and creating monopoly
that will pay you what it pleases for
the products of your farm?
If you are doing these things it is
time for you to stop and consider the
future. You will have to look but a
little way ahead to see the result, and
it will not be an attractive picture that
greets you The prosperous COM
munity of which you are now a part
will fade like the summer flowers be-
fore the winter winds, and almost as
quickly.
1t is the fact that there is a market
within close proximity to your farm
that makes your acres valuable. The
men who maintain this local market
for you are the men who cause the
railroad trains to stop at your town.
Take them away and soon the town
will be wiped off the map. The
churches will close for lack of support.
The schools will cease to be pride,
and your sons and daughters will lack
the opportunity that is theirs by right
of birth, and your acres, that are now
valuable because they lie in close
proximity to a market, will show a
depreciation that will astonish you.
Your interests are identical with
those of the merchants of your town.
By sending your dollars to the city
you may cause the merchants to close
their establishments, but when they
are forced to this they can pack their

MANY SOURCES OF SALT.
That from Natural Springs Is Gener.
ally Most Nearly Pure.

The purity of salt depends upon the
source from which it is obtained and
the sanitary conditions under which
it is prepared for the market. The
supply of common salt, the most in
dispensable of all the seasoning sub
stances both as a relishing condiment
and a well-nigh universal food. pre-
sentative, is exhaustless, yet even so
there is salt and salt, says the Pic
torial Review.
Formerly salt was obtained by evap-
Grating ocean water, a process that
left many impurities in the residuum,
to say nothing of it's exposure to all
kinds of dirt in its shiHment from sea-
ports. The Turks island or rock salt,
which is still largely used in pork
packing and in the manufacture of ice
creams, comes to the United States
in holds of vessels continually sub
jected to dirt and foul odors. Upon
it's arrival it is again handled, then
packed in coarse burlap bags, permit
ting dust to sift into the salt. In this
condition it reaches the consumer.
Latterly, however, the product of
salt springs has largely taken the lead
in this country not only for table salt
but for meat packing. The annual
production from this source in the
United States reaches more than 49,
0O0, 900 bushels, the state of New York
In the vicinity of Syracuse furnishing
large proportion of this important
supply.

Iona Lived Parisians.

M Rouse, the Oldest member OF
the Institute of France, who will be &c
years old next May, is prepared tc
prove by statistics that Paris is the
city in which life is prolonged more
surely than in any other in the world
There are enough octogenarians in the
French capital to form good-size6
town of their own-namely, 1O.5O9. A.
the population of Paris was in 1901
little over 100000 this gives $50 oc-
tcgenarians to every 100000 inhabi-
tants. 1t also appears from the fig
ures of the veteran statistician that
Paris has $40 nonagenarians, 80 OF
whom are in their one hundredth yeaS.

Mr. Mosely does not admire US

NEVER TIRES
Of the Food That Restored Her to
Health.

my food was killing me and didn't
know the cause writes Colo young
lady. For two years 1 was thin and
sickly, suffering from indigestion and
inf1ammatory rheumatism
ct had tried different kinds of diet,
plain living, and many of the remedies
recommended, but got no better.
Finally, about five weeks ago,
mother suggested that I try Grape
Nuts, and 1 began at once, eating it
with little cream or milk. A change
for the better began at once.
To-day 1 am well and am gaining
weight and strength all the time. I've
gained 10 lbs. IN the last five weeks
and do not suffer any more from indi-
eestion and the rheumatism is all
gone.
IT know it is to Grape-Nuts alone
that owe my restored health / still
eat the food twice a day and never tire
of it." Name given by Postum Co.,
Battle Creek, Mich
The flavor of Grape-Nuts is peculiar
to itself. 1t is neutral, not too sweet
and has an agreeable, healthful quail
ity that never grows t1resome.
One of the sources of rheumatism
is from overlooking the system with
acid material, the result of imperfect
digestion and assimilation.
AS soon as improper food is aban-
doned and Grape-Nuts is taken regu-
1arly, digestion is made strong. the or
gans do their work of building up good
red blood cells and of carrying away
the excess of disease-making material
from the system
The result is . certain and steady
return to normal health and mental
activity. There's reason" Read

They do not help to build school
houses for your children; the local
merchant does. They do not assist in
the support of your churches; the
local merchant does.
But there are some things the cata-
logue houses do for you and the
first and greatest of these is to assist
materially in bankrupting your COM
munity. The dollars they take away
never come back to you. They will
never help to make city of your vii
lage. They will never increase the
value of your real-estate holdings by
making local improvements
Let US look at the subject from the
standpoint of the farmer, for it is the
farmer who is the greatest patron of
tie catalogue houses.
The town or village one, two or
three miles from his home is his mar
ket for the butter and eggs and other
produce of his farm The half dozen
or more merchants of the town, each
anxious to obtain his full share of the
business of the community, maintain
a competition that affords to the
farmer at all times top prices for the
products of his farm. 1t is these half
dozen merchants that make farm
profits possible; the profits are in no
way due to the catalogue houses of
the cities.
But the farmer persists in sending
his dollars to the city. He wants a
buggy, or a set of harness, or pair
of stockings, or any of the necessities
or Injuries of life, and to get them he
takes out his mail order catalogue and
looks at the finely printed cuts, reads
the well written description, and, pass
ing the local merchant by, the mer-
chant who has purchased his produce
at the best market prices, the mer-
chant who has helped to build the
community, he sends his dollars to
the catalogue house in the city and
takes what they choose to send him.
What. is the result?
One after another the doors of the
local stores are closed, and where at
one time there were half dozen mer-
chants, each bidding for his share of
patronage by offering fair prices for
that which the farmer had to sell,
there is now but one merchant who
has a monopoly, not only of the SELL
ing, but of the buying as well, and he
pays what he pleases for the farmers
produce.
The farmer can continue to send his
money to the catalogue house in the
city for his supplies. but he cannot
send his produce to the same place

The unfaithful Servant.

Thomas Jefferson never spoke
truer word than that the art of gov
srnment consists in being honest. Ii
,ne gives little thought to the sub
ject he will be surprised to discover
hat nearly all failures in government
.an be traced to dishonesty of one
kind or another. Either the politicians
seeking office have not been honest
with the people in appealing for votes,
or the men in office have sought their
personal profit rather than the general
good. The recent indictments OF pub
lie officers in different parts of the
country have called renewed attention
10 the evils that follow betrayal OF
trust. Men have used their official in
auence for their private gain They
have regarded the power put in their
hands not as a trust to be admins
tered for the good of all, but as an OPP
portunity to enrich themselves, or to
advance their political fortunes at the
expense of the public. This sort OF
conduct is what John G. Calhoun once
called an attack on the very essence
Of a free government" One of the
yravest evils of the present time lies
IN the general glcrification of financial
success. There are many who admire
the Smart man who carries through
what he undertakes, and they do not
care whether his methods are honor
able or not The man who enters upon
office poor and leaves it rich is envied
by these persons. They applaud his
ability, and forget the moral ship
wreck that he has made of his life.
They forget that in the long run a
man reaps what he sows; that unfaith-
fulness in early life means contempt
in old age What more pathetic and
moving sight is there than gray
head, once honored, bowed in disgrace
over the disclosure of a life of indif-
ference to the finer moral standards.
The great mass of the people are
honest, says Youths Companion; they
abhor fraud and deceit; but they have
great patience with the vagaries OF
any public servant in whose honesty
Of purpose tiiey have confidence. The
unfaithful servant may prosper for a
while but the day of reckoning surely
comes.

Resnect for Old Glory.

Respect for the national flag is
growing, but it is not yet so universal
and deep-seated as it should be. Pop
ular sentiment has found expression
in legislation which has to do with
various phases of the subject, and
great deal has been done in this way
and through appeals to patriotism to
discourage the improper use of the
Star Spangled Banner. But the cru
SADIE may have to be carried farther.
The st. Louis Globe-Democrat men
tons with disapproval an incident
which occurred in it's city. At GER
tain charity bazaar held there a large
number of flags were offered for sale.
were left unsold There were no Of
fers for the flags until a certain actor
came along. He was induced to affix
his autograph to the flags, whereupon
they went off like the traditional hot
cakes at a dollar apiece. The circum-
stances move the Globe-Democrat to
adverse comment. Much of this is
caustic and aimed at the actors evil
dent love of advertising himself, but
the real point is here: I'VE believe
there is a law against using the United
States flag for advertising purposes"
There certainly is, at least in some
states, and the spirit of that enact
ment should be respected everywhere.
Unquestionably it was hattering to the
vanity of the actor, who is not of those
ranked as the great dramatic geniuses
of the age, to find that his autograph
gives enhanced value to the flag, but a
proper appreciation of Old Glory and
what it stands for would stamp this
sort of thing as a degradation instead
of an honor to the stars and stripes.
OF course every one will be glad that
deserving charity profited by the
sale of the flags, but how much more
creditable it would have been had the
banners not been debased to vulgar
advertising purpose!
