THE COUNTRY sTOREKEEPER.

oTegOu FdItnct
The country storekeeper has been
the target at which the promoters of
the various so-called cooperative con-
Germs have directed their fire in order
to facilitate the disposal of stock.
He has been pretty badly vilifed and
a good deal has been said to infame
the minds of people in his neighbor-
hoo against him.
Now, if it be true that new and
more modern merchandising methods
can be put into effect, which are of
real advantage to the people of any
community SO be it. We undergo
constant evolution and, like the in
PRODUCTION of the jitney, if greater
efficiency can be developed in mer-
chandising,. that will mean the
greatest good to the greatest num-
ber, by all means let's have it.
But let us consider the home mer-
chant, from the broad angle of his
position in, and his relation to, his
community. The country merchant
is dependent upon the prosperity of
the people in his neighborhood. He
is a factor in its home life. He is
a good citizen He is taxpayer. He
helps bury the poor and does his
share to support the schools and
churches. He extends credit to the
honest and needy, and is friends in
time of trouble.
The country merchant is student
of conditions in his locality. He buys
goods best suited to his trade If he is
possessed of the qualities of good
business management, he is able to
buy at prices which will enable him
to sell on an average as low as goods
can be bought through any channel.
Occasionally it may be true that GER
tain LEADERS" may be offered by the
big mail order houses or the big
stores, which leaders" are intended
to create the impression that they
sell lower and can give better service
than the local storekeeper. But on
careful analysis and when all things
be taken into consideration, the local
merchant will give the service and
furnish the accommodation in many
ways that no foreign concern can
possibly give.
1t is, of course, the privilege, and,
in fact, the duty, of every individual
to buy where he can get the most
for his money, but if the methods and
prices of the local dealers be careful
ly considered, we believe the result
will be a more kindly feeling and
greater and more enthusiastic sup
port will be given him.
