Unfailing Evidence of Prosperity.

Evidence of the prosperity of the
western states is furnished by figures
made known by the Southern Pacific
Company in San Francisco recently
as to the number of freight cars load
ed this season. The average loading
on the lines of this company III Cali
fornia is greater by 600 cars per
month over the same period last year,
or about 200 cars p Gay.
Railroads have been heavily press
ed for rolling stock because OF this
sudden demand for service Only the
hearty cooperation on the part of the
shippers has made it possible to keep
all the traffic moving The large fruit
firms have instructed their agents not
to delay or divert shipments unneces-
Sariy. and have issued circulars to this
effect, for the principal difficulty has
arisen from movements in the eastern
States.
The Pacific Fruit Express, accord
! ing to an announcement made by
| President Sproule OF the Southern Pa
cihc Company. has ordered 1000 more
refrigerator cars Of the latest design
This number, together with the lot OF
1000 only recently ordered. will bring
up tliis lines total equipment to 100.
100 cars. representing an investment
OF over $20,000,000 al to be available
on July OF next year. in time for tho
1918 fruit crop.
The new cars are designed especial
" for the fruit packages peculiar to
California and the west and will load
easily and economically They will be
fitted with the Bolfn collapsible tanks

OCEAN TO OCEAN HIGHWAY.
Goodyear Rubber Co. Contributes Big
Sum for the Cause.

Impetus, to the tune of 100000. ha!
been given the proposed oceanic
Ocean National Highway by the Good
year Tire and Rubber Company, o.
Akron, Ohio Over one million dol
lars has already been pledged, ano
some of the largest makers of auto
mobiles and accessories have yet tC
be heard from.
The plan, as originally outlined by
! Carl c. Fisher, of Indianapolis, and
his associates, provides for the pur-
! chase of materials for the building of
a stone highway from New York to
/ San Francisco. to be completed in time
/ for general use to the Panama Expo
sition in 1915. 1t will take ten million
dollars to provide 5000 worth OF ma
terial for each mile. but one-tenth OF
the amount has already been secured
and the surface has only been scratch
| ed
We'll do it." says Mr. Fisher
The only thing that | am anxious
about is getting the job done in time
for the Big Fair"
F. A. Sieberlng. President OF the
Goodyear. voices the general attitude
OF manufacturers toward the project.
The need of national highway
from coast to coast" said Mr.. Sieber-
ling. has ben so obvious that its pos
sibility. in fact its almost definite as
thing in the world. The plan propos-
ed by c. G. Fisher, of Indianapolis, is
the first practical plan to my knowl-
edge, that has been advanced.
''In pledging its pro rata OF approx
mately 100000, the Goodyear Tire
and Rubber Company feels that they
have done nothing remarkable or un-
selfish. We look upon tie pledge as
a movement on which we will expect
to realize dividends. The fact that the
industry is supporting this move ar
CUES. to my mind, that the manufac-
turers look upon the project in the
same light.
In my opinion, the move will sue
ceed-it deserves to succeed. and the
men behind it are calculated to see
anything they back gets its deserts.
In other words. they are business men,
and it takes business men. not poll
ticians, to do all OF the really big
things OF today"

ESTABLISHING HOME TRADE.
Local Merchant and Customer Will
Find Honesty Best Policy.

Truth is the essence of all that is
righteous. He who receives the re
spect of his fellow men lives up to hi:
word If you are merchant in YOU
town and advertise in the local paper
as to the value and quality OF things
you have to sell, live up to your adveT'
vertisement The truth of your adver
tised statements should be your stock
in trade, and profit and success will
be the reward.
Truth is essential to the home mer-
chant to found popular trade. Rely
ing on steady patrons for success he
must contine himself to straight and
narrow path in business dealings con
corning advertised statements.
Truth also can advantageously be
adopted by many possible customer
Of the home tradesman. In every com
munity there is always to be found
some one working out of harmony
with the great majority sheep are al
ways straying from the flock, and un-
der different guses and excuses they
continue to accept the brilliantly col
ored offerings of mail order houses 10
the detriment of small dealers of their
own town In doing this they are not
true to themselves or their neighbors.
They do an injustice to people and
places with which their whole lives
are Ii ked in intimate relationship and
excuse themselves with the thought
that they are dealing with a 100000
600 concern in large city. They sell
their birthright for a mess of pottage.
They have the opportunity to be true
10 their home town, but turn deaf
ear to the pleading OF the local mer-
chant whose failure. if this should oc
cur. is often wondered at by this same
neglectful element.
A hourishing campaign is being
prosecuted by all the large mail order
houses in the couhtry. They are Hood
ing rural districts with alluring lit
imaginable article of general use. Take
erature," offering bargains" in every
their catalogues, their booklets their
offers, and, allowing for freight and
mailing costs. compare them with the
same class OF material for sale by the
local dealer or which can be secured
for you by him in as short a time as IT
takes the mail order house to send it,
making the nescessary allowance OF
time from the moment you mail your
order. You then will discover some
Slight INSTALLATIONS on your part. In
many instances you will get by home
trade what you want in less time for
less money.
The truth of this has been proved
time and time again, but in dealing
with large mail order concerns only
the price shown in big letters is sw2l-I
lowed as pleasing morsel. while
cidental cost in time and money and |
that greater cost. injury to your town
and neighbors, are lost sight of for the
time.
