BUYING IN
DISTANT CITIES

People sometimes tell the home
merchant that he does not sell as
cheap'y as metropolitan stores on
mail order houses in more or less
distant cities.
Any person wishing to com
pare the two scales of prices should
inquire whether the distant store
was selling the same goods. Second
grade products can be made to look
very handsome in a catalog cut. But
the home merchant can not float
that kind of goods. They come
back to his store too easily.
1t is amusing to see the bother
people will take for thrilling sums
they think they are saving. They
will travel many miles, spend street
car fares. pay for luncheons, hotel
hills and tips. They get tired and
foot-sore tramping around over
grown stores separated by long dis
tances. They wait for change, carry
bundles, and pay express. They
pay a high price in money and
energy for supposed economies.
When you buy goods away from
home you rarely take them back.
The bother and expense looks pro-
hibitiye. When you buy at home
you would return them il d~issatis-
fled. This takes the time of clerks.
frequently the goods have been i'm
jured while in your hands.
Where it is so easy to return
goods, the customer must be given
both the worth of his money, and
something suited to his needs. A
higher grade of salespeople is thus
required in the home store. T
make a sale that will stick so near
home. the customer must be given
intelligent advice.
Thus the public demands from
the home store more competent ser
vice than it exacts from the dis
tant merchant This means addi-
tional expense. which is counter
balanced by lower rents and like
economies. when you consider how
generously the home store responds
to al kinds Of demands. reasonable
and unreasonable. the range of its
prices is remarkably low.

undiscovered delicacy. In fact grape
fruit at reasonable prices is a very
modern product and really good
grapefruit is largely an America
product. That Is to say the govern
ment p~omologists have done a great
deal in the way of improving its
quality as we'll as TO lower it's price
by encouraging its propagation.
Tropical fruits are now cheaper
and more abundant than they form
erly were and the temperate zone
fruits are no longer rotting in one
section while another section is
without them. The consumer pays
q good round price, of course, but
he a ALWAYS get what he is will
irg to pay for. The producer can
always sell what he produces. He
does not have to haul a wagon load
OF apples in a neighborhood
traversed by mud roads and feed
them to the hogs if the neighbors
will not buy them at his price or
theirs.
Milk was much cheaper thirty
years ago than it is nowadays, but
a. wasn't certifide. 1t wasn't even
alleged to be sanitary. The floor of
the cowbarn thickened in winter ant
was carried nj by the wagon load
IN the spring to fertilize the garden

ton OF whether or not the county
shall be bonded for the purpose OF

II the farmers can afford 20 Va
against bonding. no one else should
worry a great deal. The Press has
done the best Il could TO give them
all the Information obtainable,
There is no further argument;
nothing more TO be said. The

PAUL
GLADSTONE

Paul GLADSTONE has advanced in
his political aspirations and is
now a full-fledged candidate for the
nomination for United States Sena-
tor. Having faithfully served the
PEOPLE OF Idaho as a candidate for
the gubernatorial nomination ever
since the adoption OF the direct pri-
mary law he feels that his services
should be recognized by promotion
and hence at the coming primaries
he win offer himself as a candidate
for the nomination for United States
Senator. 1t is a perfectly harmless

Well. Clag is to be a candidate o

without success, he now proposes 10

with the ~Progressives should be
decidedly better than with the Re
p~ubllcans or at least will be settled
al am earlier date. The Progress
sive party has undying and unfaloer-
ing faith in the peopleZno question
about that! Each member OF the
organization has the most implicit
faith in himself-and hence in con-
ference the party has supreme con-
fidence in the people, "of whom
they are which"
When GIBSON and Martin and
Broxon and Cruzen and Clagstone
and Smock gather together there Is
gathered the Progressive party and
also the 'people!" And thus be-
ing assembled it is an easy matter
to secure an expression of the peo-

GOOD OLD DAYS
WE DIDN'T HAVE IT.

There Is much of fiction and
Muchausenism woven around the
virile subject OF the present high
cost OF living, and some people are
Inclined to give credit to the yarns
that have found place in the popular
mind concerning this ever present
and pressing subject. The Louisville
Journal of recent date has the fol-
lowing interesting article on this
question.
Evidently the determination to in
ycstigate the cold storage business
OF the country, as we'll as the pres
cnt day cost of living, has aroused
memories Of other days in the mind
OF 'Marso" Henry Waterson. In
an editorial which recently appeared
I'M the Courier-Journal he says:
The high cost OF living isn't a
myth. OF course but there IS q good
deal OF fiotional literature about how
cheap many h~igh-priced articles and
commod lies used TO be. A minor
poets lay contains a line to the eff
feet that once upon a time "our yer
cheapest meal was eggs"
THAT was true i'm the laying sea-
SON But there were long periods
during which many persons went
without eggs. Eggs are scarce used
TO be the familiar statement where
rs &c is 10Y eggs are high priced
The laying season used to begin
in springtime. when the hens got
their first green forage. 1t lasted
through the warm months. Few
eggs were produced i'm cold weather.
Hen feeding was chiefly for the pur-
rose of keeping the fowls alive until
spring. IL was the rankest empricis
when an effort was being made u
get hens to lay regularly out OF ca
SON.
Thirty years ago in rural KEN
lucky eggs were sold as low as 8 or
{ cents a dozen when they were
plentiful. but in off season the egg
gourd WAS empty most Of tn time
Eggs were preserved n BRINE, in
bran. in various ways recommended
by housewives who exchanged ex-
~perienees at quilting parties but il
cold storage is bad-and it is when
e results in long stored products be-
ing fraudulently sold as fresh
home storage was worse. When
eggs were scarce those to be had
were often what the late Polk Mil
ler's waiter described as 'omlelet
eggs or scramble eggs when the
hotel had to fry or boil eggs
IN stock.
In the good old days we hear so
much about spring chickens we're
either eaten in the summer, and
when they We're real or eaten in
sorrow and disillusionment in winter
when they were merely scribby little
hens sold rs spring chickens. Now
adays broilers are available at
almost any time. but are high priced
when they are produced out OF sea-
son.
