TWO SIDES TO THE QUESTION.
Patronage Of Home Stores Depends
Much Upon the Merchants.

How often do merchants complain
about the farmers and others sending
to distant places for goods, while at
the same time the farmers are forced
by the merchants to send their pro-
duce to some other place while the
merchants ship in the same class of
products that the farmers are send
ing out?
In the home patronage matter there
is nothing so wholesome as reci-
procity. Do the merchants always
give preference to homegrown pota-
toes. to the products supplied by the
local hens, to the output of the local
creameries? Do the merchants al
ways show a good example by patron
izing their brother tradesmen? Or
do they at times send to the city for
the clothes they wear; the piano for
their daughter. the wagon they use
in delivering goods, ETC.?
There are a lot of narrow-minded,
short-sighted men in the mercantile
business as well as on the farms
There Is lot of selfishness in the
average of humanity, and this mani
tests itself now and then in censur-
ing others for doing that which we
feel justified in doing ourselves.
Many merchants seem to think that
there is only one side to the home
patronage proposition; that it is the
duty of the farmer to buy everything
at home regardless of whether the
merchant buys his flour from the
home mill, or whether he sends away
for the potatoes which he sells, in
stead of buying them from the local
farmers.
Then. again, merchants are as blind
now and then to their own interests
as are the farmers. The merst ant
seeks to squeeze the last cent of
profit from the farmer and thereby
loses trade. as well as the farmer
trying to save a few niggardly pen
MES and getting bit" by the distant
mail-order concern. There is such a
thing as equity, be 1t understood, and
there Is such a thing as coaDensation.
The merchant who gives the farmers
of his community a square deal and
shows the proper kind of enterprise is
hardly ever heard complaining about
the mail-order house or the depart
ment stores injuring his trade. But
the merchant who is intent upon play
ing a dead cinch" game is forever
bowling. The home patronage matter
is mainly up to the merchants of
the small towns. People resid-
Ing In the country are pretty fair
minded. They want decent treat
ment. They like consistency. They
will even pay the live. reliable. honest
merchant a higher price for goods
than they will the distant mail-order
concern or the surething department
store. or the scalliwag merchant who
is always out to beat somebody out of
a few cents.

Too Many Small Towns.

Economic laws regulate town build
ing. In certain locality there can be
too many towns For towns exist
ence there must be a certain amount
of trade, a volume OF business sum-
Client to give employment In the
trades and industries to the residents
OF the town. Some people deplore the
fact that conditions are changing SO
as to drive some towns out of exist
ence. Many, of these places have no
natural right to exist. Perhaps their
geographical location in the district
is not advantageous. Their existence
takes from better located town a
certain share of the support it should
have. In farming community where
the population is only sufficient to
support town of thousand inhabi-
tants It is foolish to presume that two
towns Of thousand population eseh
can be properly maintained. In his
message to congress President Roose-
welt expressed his views in these
words: Il believe 1t is good policy for
our government to do everything pos
sible to aid the small town and the
country district; 1t is desirable that
the country merchant should not be
crushed out" This is not mere senti-
ment. 1t is an economic truth. The
interests of the farmer and the III
borer are closely intertwined with the
interests of the merchants of the small
town. When one suffers adversely
there is reflex action upon all other
residents of the community. When
the farmers as class are prosperous
the merchants and others engaged in
other than farming industries enjoy
this prosperity. The quicker all good
citizens of agricultural districts recog-
nize the true relationship of one to the
other the better it will be for all and
the higher will become our citizen
ship.

EFFECT OF MULCH.
u Does Not Retard Blooming Of Straw
berry Plants.

No. This question has been settled
for 20 years. So long as the top of a
plant is exposed to sunshine and air,
so long will any mulch be impotent to
retard its developing and blooming
If plant like strawberry plant be
kept entirely covered with the mulch.
the development will be retarded, but
in that case the plant is likely to be
destroyed by the mildews that will de-
velop.
1t used to be believed that placing
straw around tree or around a plant
would keep its roots cold and thus
delay blooming. This was desired to
carry the tree or plant beyond the
time of killing frosts. But it was not
difficult to prove that the state of the
roots had nothing to do with the
time of leaving out of the tree or of
its budding. In one of the demonstra-
tons to prove this. grape vine with
its roots in the frozen ground, which
was also covered with snow. was car
ried into a greenhouse and exposed to
the light, heat and sunshine The
leaves came out as usual. though the
roots could not supply moisture. OF
course the exhaustion of the moisture
in the vine resulted in its destruction.
tree or plant can be kept back
from blooming only by covering it and
thus protecting ii from the influences
that cause it to bring forth leaves and
blossoms. The first activities of a
tree or plant come from energy stored
up in the form of starch from the
food taken the previous year.

HEN STEALS A DIAMOND.
Aristocratic Fowl Loses Its Life as a

Mitchell. s. D.-While walking

man. stopped before one in which a
friendly hen Of the Buff Orpingion va,
riety stuck out its head. Mr.. Belts
tapped the bird on the side OF its head,
and the sparkle of a diamond ring
which he was wearing attracted the
eye of the hen. Quick as fash its
bill struck the brilliant. and in a sec.
oud the hen had transferred the dia.
imond from the setting to It's craw.
Mr.. Belts hurried over to Secretary
Scallin and wanted to know II the hen
was for sale. and explained his
anxiety. The owner was not present
and the secretary could not say.
Warm water was poured down the
throat OF the chicken and 1t became
sick. but did not give up the diamond.
Later 1t died. and after little surgical
operation the diamond was secured.
