LET'S LIVE AT HOME

One of our prominent business
men has given us copy of n pare
graph which has impressed him and
seems to us, also, to suggest very
potent cause OF our present business
depression. 1t reads as follows:
The Southern Farmer gets up at
the alarm of a Connecticut clock,
buttons his Chicago suspenders to
Detroit overalls, washes his face
vania pan. SITS down to a Grand Ra-
pids table, eats Chicago meat and
Indiana hominy, fried in Kansas
lard on q ST. Louis stove. Puts a
New York bride on a Kentucky
mule. fed on Iowa corn. Plows a
farm covered by an Ohio mortgage,
with Chattanooga plow When
bed time comes he reads a chapter
from a Bible printed in Boston and
says Il prayer written in Jcr tsaIrm,
crawls under a blanket made m New
Jersey, to be kept awake by South
Caroline dog, the only hcn.r product
or the place, and then wonders Why
he cannot make money raising cot
ton"
Just as we have all doubtless been
guilty of these or similar ofTenses
against our ncighbors and ourselves.
so may we all. by united effort create
demand for home products by di
versifying our interests and becom-
ing indeperdent,-in other words by
living at home

See Your Creditors.

Have you seen your creditors and
have you tried to pay at least a
part of your debts? Just remember
one thing creditors have obligations
many of them pressing ones, too, to
meet and unless they can collect
some money to meet a part of what
they owe then they will soon get to
to place where their credit, too, will
be exhausted and then how can we
expect help from them another year +?
Business depends upon the circula-
tion of money. Let's try to put as
much as we can in circulation by
paying as many debts as we can.
1t Is highly important fcr our future
welfare that we try to do this. If
you have the money pay all you owe
III you can't pay all pay some
