PARTNERS IN TOWN BUSINESS.
A village, a town, city is a part
nershlp. All of us here are in bust
ness together. Ownership of property
is individual, but our prosperity as a
whole is closely bound up in each
others interests. If you have a house
to rent, goods to sell, labor to sell,
your success in getting good price
for such service depends on the pros
perity of your neighbors. If they are
DONG well, they will pay fair prices.
ana as times go, these prices tend to
rise On the other hand, if your
ne1ghborS are not succeeding, they will
haggle for the last cent for your

prices for these services will tend to

prosperity of your neighbors, thereby
they become less able to do anything

COOPERATION THAT PAYS.
Plans are now being made by two
great railroad systems for conducting
experimental farms along their routes
In order to show to the farmers what
can be done in the way of agricultu1 al
production. Other railroad systems
are devoting their attention to similar
enterprises and many concerns not di-
rectly connected with agriculture as a
business are spending money in its
promotion. Nor is all this expenditure
of money purely philanthropic, al
though it contains this element. The
railroads are interested in the devel-
opment of the country, in the increase
of crops along their routes aside from
the philanthropic feature because of
the indirect benefits that come to
them chiefly in two ways, in the in
creased freight tonnage and in the
larger number of prospective patrons
that will naturally live along the line
of the road. In the same way, closer
relationship and more friendly feeling
between the town and rural commune
ties of Kansas will work to the bene-
fit of both classes. The town man fills
an important place in the CONNER
cial life of the state; likewise the far
mer performs a work that is highly
and these classes are neces-
sary to each other. And the spirit of
cooperation that should prevail be-
tween the two will result to the adj
of both.-Salina Journal.
