A few days ago one of our mer
chants got on to the fact that a
man had a bill of groceries COM
ing to him from a Denver con-
Germ, and suggested that he COM
pare prices. The bill amounted
to about $34. After figuring the
whole bill up at the regular pri-
ces of the home merchant, the
man found that he could save
$1.05 by trading at home. As the
Denver shipment of groceries was
sent subject to approval, he had
them sent back and bought the
bill of the home merchant. One
is: Merchants should advertise
regularly and let people know
what htey have, and give pric-
es on their goods. Another is:
People should give the home mer-
chant the first chance at bills
before sending their money out o,
town, never more to circulate in
the county. If these two policies
