THINGS MADE IN TOPEKA.

Nothing better for the development
of Topeka in a material way has been
Undertaken by the members of the
Commercial club than the campaign
which they have started to help the
factories of Topeka along their way.
One Of its chief features is the display
each week in the club rooms of the
products of one or more of these fac
tories.
1t is regrettable truth that for the
most part the people of this city have
little or no idea of the many and
varied products which are made right
at their very doors. Most of them are
articles which are in common use and
which every family needs for its pur-
poses to a greater or less extent in
the ordinary course of their lives. That
these things are Just as good as SINH
lar articles which are made elsewhere
is evidenced by the fact that they are
able to compete on equal terms in
other markets. In fact it is in mar
kets outside of Topeka that most of
the local factories sell their wares. This
is because Topekans, and the retail
merchants are included in this classifi-
cation, are more or less ignorant of
the fact that SO many things which
they need and sell are made right at
home here 1t is not an unusual con-
dition of affairs it prevails in al
most every place where there are fac
tories 70 any extent.
But this is no good reason for a con-
tinuance of this order of things There
are also many excellent reasons why
things should be otherwise in this re-
spect. If the articles manufactured in
Topeka were consumed on the home
markets to a large extent 1t would
mean that the manufacturers making
them would so increase their business
that they would make their plants
larger and do their business on a much
bigger scale. This would mean more
opportunities of employment for labor
ers and workers of all types including
the skilled. These would have to come
for the most part from outside the city
as there is apparently more work in the
city just now than there are workers
for it.. This would mean an increase
III the population of a most desirable
sort of citizens.
Therefore, in boosting the factories
the way is paved for a realization of
benefits on all sides because an in
creased population means increases in
business in every line. No reason ex-
lists why Topeka should not become a
large manufacturing center. With it's

excellent transportation facilities, its
[desirability as a place for workers to
make their homes. it is an ideal place
for such activities. A step In this d.
rection will be made by the develop
ment of the existing manufacturing
plants here. If they are made to be
unusually successful others will come
here quickly. In displaying the prod
ucts Of the local manufacturing plants
the Commercial club has paved the
way to help this work along. 1t is up
to the people of the city generally now
to go to the Commercial club rooms
and see these displays. learn for them
selves just what is made in Topeka
and then make up their minds to pat
rcnize home industry.
