A FARMERS VIEW.
Why the Mail Order Houses Gain
o Their Greatest Advantage.


Their Greatest Advantage.
The following is letter which was
written by a farmer to the Engle.
wood Tribune last week. 1t gives a
farmers idea and also agrees with
the method that many Garden City
merchants have taken for competing
with mail order houses. Almost every
farmer will trade at home, but you
have to let him know what you have
and the price and invite him to come
and see you. That is the way
to effectively fight the mail order
business.
"If. the mail order houses get $4,000
out of the county each month that be
longs to the home merchant, as you
say they do, the fault is with the mel
chants themselves. The big Chicago
houses give us prices on everything
they offer for sale. They tell us what
they have and what they want for
it. OF course we get soaked once
in while, and if we do we try some
other house. Most of the home mer.
chants who advertise at all don't
quote prices. They neglect to tell
US what we want to know, the prices
and the goods they have. OF course,
we can go to the store and ask the
price of this and that article but you
don't know how it is, one does not
know what he wants to buy exactly
when he gets in a store, and here is
where mail order houses make the
hit. They send US their advertising
matter in our home, and we read II
when we haven't anything else to do
and every member Of the family who
reads this stuff usually finds some
thing he or some other member Of
the family wants, and many orders
are made up and sent in at Just such
times.
Fright here is where the home
merchant falls down. If he talked
up his business to US in our homes
the same as our mail order houses d.
the people would be in to see him
the next time they come to town
and In many cases extra trips would
be made to get the things at once
we didn't know we wanted until they
were brought to our attention.
'The home merchant can save the
expense Of getting out a catalogue
We people read the home paperl
more carefully than we do the cata
logue, and read them every week
and if the merchants want to tall
in the papers they must put thei
ads in so we can know that h,
nine times out of ten sells his good
as cheap as the mail house, and Of
many things he is much cheaper
but how are we to know it if he doe
not tell us about it. A merchant mus
not think that even his best custom
ersknow his goods so we'll that the
can tell what he has without bein
told.
| 1T is none of my business how tn
home merchant runs his business
but 1 don't like to see those roast
in the paper about us who have
little stuff shipped in once in a Will
and never anything said on tn
other side.
There are always two sides to
question, and / have given you min,
If it is worth anything you can te
it"-In Garden City Telegram.

Fred. r. p. Waterhouse then read
the report of his Investigations into
the rubber industry in Ceylon, Ma
laya, and Java. Mr.. Waterhouse
gave a review of the conditions which
he encountered in the course of his
tour of investigation, answering all
questions that were put to him by
the members present
In regard to the relative value of
the Ceara or Hevea rubber tree-the
former the ,one now planted in the
Islands and the latter the one more
generally found in the great rubber
districts--Mr. Waterhouse said:
Il certainly believe that the He
yea or Para rubber tree will pay
better than the Ceara If the climate
is warm enough for it. If, after ex-
pertinent, 1t is demonstrated that
Hevea can be grown here so that
they will mature In say six or seven
years. should advise planting them.
They are. as a general thing, far
more productive and, the bark being
thicker, the tapping offers a less So
rious problem than with the Ceara."
How do our methods OF handling
the latex compare with those that
YOU saw in use in other Ceara dis
tricts on your tour OF Investigations?
was asked of Waterhousc.
| Il consider ours to be In advance
of those In use In most districts"
came the response. In many IN
stances managers complained OF trou-
bles that we have learned how TO
guard against with saiety-ior en-
ample, the coagulatins OF the latex
between the time that 1t Is drawn
from the tree and its maj deposit in
the storehouse.'
