Dparance

Home patronage In everything is
what makes . community wealthy.
II means high prices and a home
demand for everything the farmer
has to sell. A man who sends his
money away for what he can buy at
home Is q town wrecker, and the far
mer who sends away for stuff he can
buy from home merchants, all things
being equal, Is . farm wrecker. Out
aide prices are made to catch stran-
gers, and the catalogue fellows skin
everybody who deals with them. The
catalogue houses have made millions
N afew years. Could they have done
% had they given customers the quail
ity Of goods advertised? Community
interest must sustain our county
against outside sharks.
