he really ought to. When you speak
10 him on the subject, he will tell you
his trade demands it and he must
handle certain brands. This may be
true in a few cases, but we know for a
fact that some of the dealers when
asked what cigars they would recon-
mend. will invariably mention an put
side brand. This is not only an in
Justice to the home manufacturer, but
thew mislead the purchaser, for if he
is posted on the grades of cigars that
are sold in Aberdeen he knows that
every brand Of outside cigars sold here
finds its equal if not its superior
among the goods manufactured in
Aberdeen.
In reading the above, you will
see at a glance that not to boost for
the home made product is poor bust
ness policy. There are a number of
retail dealers in Aberdeen who buy
10000 or more OUTSIDE goods per
month. Each one who does this is
keeping two cigarmakers out of Aber-
deem and employing them in New
York, Pennsylvania and other east
ern states"

BUY YOUR HOME CIGARS

Recently the Aberdeen cigar-mak-
ers union issued the following circular
urging the encouragement of home
industry by buying homemade cigars
and il applies just as much TO Brook
ings as Aberdeen:
Gentlemen: Cigarmakers union
No. 275, has had its attention called
TO the combined efforts of all Aber-
domains to do something whereby our
city would be benefited. Our mem
berShip consists of men of modest
means and il is not possible for us to
make a cash donation to the budget
fund, but We are willing TO aid in any
other way in which We may be of any
use to bring about a better understand
ing between the business men and the
consumer.
In line witt. this, we would like to
point out a few weak links in the chain
that should bind together all classes
in Aberdeen into one body with one
aim in view-patronize home industry.
ITO show this weakness in our chain
We are compelled to cite a few matters
pertaining 10 our trade. We think the
same a be applied to any other in
dustry in the city and the same re-
suits would be obtained as in the cigar
industry.
One of the greatest and most fire.
quently made mistakes of the business
man is that he has the idea that if he
talks, 'patronize the Aberdeen mer-
chant he has done his full duty. He
usually forgets the main part of his
duty, which is to lead with a good
example. For instance, he will have a
New York or Pennsylvania cigar in
his mouth when he is telling a Gus
toner not TO send to Chicago for his
clothing and groceries.
The retail dealer who depends on
the home trade entirely, sends more
money out of the city for cigars than

The TOWN THAT JUST GROWS

; There are in this country some
towns that JUS grow like Topsy. They
are not numerous (for towns that are
left just to grow just die but they
afford interesting examples.
There We're reasons why they just
grew. They were sometimes halfway
between two better towns. They were
a convenient stopping place, a neces-
sary evil.
The houses are out of line and out
of repair, because they like the streets,
just grew.
The people are often shiftless and
poor, because they, like the houses,
just grew.
Heaven help the town that just
grows. 1t must have had great natural
advantages to have just grown in COM
petition with liver towns. But it lacked
real people. 1t could, with these self
evident advantages, have been so
much better, brighter, bigger. But the
people were willing to let it just grow.
1t might have been SO much cleaner,
happier, Weather. 1t might have
been a rose; but it just grew-and the
thing that just grows is a weed.
It's people sent away for their goods
and left their own town just to grow.
They enriched other towns and left
their own just to grow.
Reader, how about your town? 1t
may seem to be doing fairly we'll, but
is it doing well as it might? Are
you taking an interest in its affairs?
Are you helping elect good men to Of
fee? Are you spending your money
here at home where it will continue to
furnish capital for this towns people?
Are you interested in the things pro-
posed for this towns increased pros,
perity and improved appearance?
Or are you leaving the town just to
grow?

Mule Sales May Reach 100000.
uiton.-Mules continue 20 be ship
ped out Of Galloway county to the st.
Louis market, and the sale of fat by.
birds this week total about 100 head.
The seasons mule sales have now
reached approximately $50 head, and
they have brought about $450.OOO, II
is estimated that there are still 600
mules ON feed In the kingdom, and
the total sales for the season ought
to reach 100000. Several of the big
feeders are feeding their second lot
for the season, several having almost
90 head ON hand. The concluding
sales will be made in less than two

has been a great aid in fattening the
mules in short time.
