Standard Goods Bear Trade Mark.
The live town furnishes market

merchants pride themselves on their
ability to serve the buying public,
They ill their stores with merchandise
Of standard quality which should
make and keep customers.
In previous articles We have shown
how a good town contributes to higher
farm values and how farm prosperity
may he directly and greatly influenced
by the presence of II good town, This
being the case, there Is n natural rela-
ton between country and townspeople
which many perhaps have not thor
oughly considered
Same Goods, Same Price.
A live town with live merchants
who are broad minded enough to look
beyond present day profits invariably
affects land values and the desirability
Of the countryside as a place to live.
Let it be remembered that standard
made goods bearing registered trade
mark sell for the same price the world
over. and the manufacturers guaran-
tee Of quality stands behind them in
the village store as well as in the large
city mercantile emporium.
Any manufacturing concern which
will permit itself to be tempted into
turning out goods which do not bear
It's name or trademark is a mighty un-
reliable institution II its dealings
with the mail order house are fair and
honest, why does it try to shield itself
from public discovery?
Price and Quality.
The lower grade goods and sec

and are sold almost exclusively by the
retail catalogue houses or ten cent
stores to consumers who have not All

who consider the price rather than
quality
Buying your Decessaries at home and
selling your produce at home is what
makes and keeps the home market

If you would be known and not

would know and not he known live in
the city
God made the country. and man
made the town What wonder that
health and virtue should abound and
least be threatened in field and grove.
But. while man made the country
towns, God is to be thanked for them
They have been as lamps of life along
the pathway of humanity and religion.
Within them great men have been
born and great minds conceived and
developed. Behind their walls freedom
has fought her noblest battles. They
have stood on the surface of the earth
like great breakwaters, rolling back or
turning aside the swelling tide of OPP
preston. Country towns have been the
cradles of human liberty. They have
been the active sentries of almost all
church and state reformation.
Towns Not Dead-Only Sick.
We refer, of course, to live, prosper
Gus towns, not places that are dead
and ready for the last sad rites. OF
course there are many towns which
are not dead, only sick. They need II
tonic to quicken their pulse; they need
general treatment by Il community
specialist or, better still. they should
consult their pride and their conscience
and awaken to Il full realization Of
their position and condition.

best market possible for his products
He will naturally find it IN live

merchants and business men. These
men are not only making good mar

For Universal Good.
They see beyond the results Of one
days trade and realize that there is
something more in life than mere
money making. They are actively in

ditions from an educational. social,
moral as well AS financial standpoint.
Effort in this line is not confined to
the town alone, as the magnificent
benefits extend beyond the corporation
limits. The town is made community
and trade center for farmers as well
as townspeopIe where there is a lively
