to as set forth would be found to be
OF untold benefit:
If the local merchant is not sup
ported it is only a matter OF time
until he is obliged to go Il OF bust
ness. If he does this it is likewise
a question of time only until the
farm values decrease, as a dead town
means low land values. The way to
kill a town is to send your money
20 the mail order houses.
A dollar circulating in a commun-
ity works for that community. A
dollar sent to one of the mail order
houses ceases to work locally. A
dollar turned over every month with
for the local merchant but for the
farmer as we'll. If you gave all your
trade to your home merchant it would
mean that that dollar would bring
you something, at least. If you send
it to a mail order house it means
that the turn over value is eternally
lost t the community.
But o say that the local merchant
charges you more than does the mail
order house. Does he? Did you ever
stop to figure the cost of an article
from a mail order house, counting
every cent required to land the goods
at your door, and compare the total
price with that offered by your local
merchant? Or did you look at the
catalog price simply and compare
that with local prices?
Have you, like many others, said
that the local merchant did not carry
a sufficient stock to fill your de-
mands? If so. have you stopped to
think that you, yourself, have not en-
couraged him to do so? Time was,
before the mail order houses reached
Out with their tentacles, that large
and complete stocks were handled
by all country merchants and no one
ever said that the merchant was "
exchanging. Nor does he today. all
things considered, charge you a cent
more than his goods are really worth.
In nine cases out of ten the goods
carried are OF a much higher class
than those sold by the mail order
houses.
Won ro, INV :, Mill canar1tnr from
a mail order house for as low rs
$l2 but is it worth even that much?
Can YOU. if any part is broken. re-
place It promptly, or at a slight cost?
One Of this class Of separators has
one part which is very liable to break
age and when this occurs it is neces-
sary that an entire new bowl be OBJ
tained, and from the factory in the
east. This bowl is of cast iron and
the freight is consequently high.
The same part on the separators sold
by the local merchants may be re-
placed for not more than a two-bit
piece and may be mailed to you for
three OF four cents. This is only
one of the many things which we
could mention in connection with the
mail order houses.
If you purchase any article from
your local merchant and it proves de-
fective in any way your money is
promptly refunded, or else you are
given a perfect article in its place.
Will the mail order houses do as
much for you without much waste
of time and considerable correspond
ence? Will they pay the freight,
in all instances, either way on defec-
tive articles?
If you will make all your purchases
Carson City daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1907-1930, 1913-08-26

from your local merchant it will mean
rhat he will be Obliged to increase his
sales force in that he may promptly
care for YOU demands. That in turn
will mean that there will be a greater
demand for farm products, which
Will naturally act to increase farm
values. II, as is the case in MANY
small towns, $4,000 a year is sent
to the mail order houses it means the
community has lost, and for all time,
double or treble that amount, yea,
more than that. 1t means that the To-
cal merchants have lost the profits
on that amount and that you in turn
have lost much through not having
a local market for your own products.
You are really more of a loser than
Is the local merchant, as the buying
from mall order houses tends to
cheaper your land through killing the
OF your towns.
Give all your business to your local
merchants and let them know that
you are intending to pursue such a
course for all time and it will not
be long before they will be in a po-
s1tlon TO quote you prices which will
compare favorably with those of the
mail order houses. Give your local
merchant all your trade and instead
OF buying by the dozen he will be
sending for gross lots. The more
he buys the less will be his cost, and
you will be the one who will profit
thereby. By and bye he will be buy
ing in carload lots and you will be
Getting your goods still cheaper.
While you are doing this for your
local town and are getting your Goods
at home where YOU can see them and
where you can buy on credit, your
farm is growing in value, Tor the
simple reason that your trading point
is a busy center. The towns are .he
barometers OF the country. y. poor
town means a poor country, as a rule.
A live town the reverse. You can
make your town whichever you see
tit, and all to your own personal
profit.
Which is better, send from $1,000
to 5000 a month to the mail order
houses and lose that mount for
ever, or keep it at home and spend
it with your local merchants where
there is an ever chance that you will
see some OF it again? Why not build
up your oWn community rather than
Chicago, New York or some other
! place far removed:
