The other day a merchant in a
nearby town saw farmer re
ceiving goods at the station from
a Chicago mail-order house, says
the Muscotah KAN Record:
The goods were in his line and
the same had been carriedin his
store for years. He approached
the farmer and saib:
Il could have sold YOU every
article YOU have there TO" less
money than you paid the Chicago
house, and saved you the freight,
besides
Then why on earth didn't you
say so?" answered the farmer
Il have taken the Muscotah
Record for years. and have never
seen a line about your selling
these goods. The Chicago house
sent advertising matter to me
asking for my trade and they go'
it."

Newspaper the Farmer :

In an audience composed most
" of farmers recently, says the
Nation CID Gazette. one OF the
speakers expressed the mutual
friendship between the farm and
newspaper in the following, says
an exchange:
LAS a rule the farmer has no
Ifirmer friend than the country
press. The home paper Is dlstlr-
city the farmers own paper,
supported directly and indirectly
by farmers, who compose the
backbone of the subscription list
of the publisher, and largely for
what the enterprising merchant
advertises. Now. brother let us
not forget our friends. Let US
see that our subscription Is paid
a year in advance; we can DO 1t.
The man or the paper that
fights my battles shall have my
support. Another thing, the
merchants advertising are the
ones who make it possible for US
to get good local paper. The
man or local firm who is tco pen
urious TO advertise and help sup
port the local press has no right
