MAIL ORDER cATALOCS

The Rapid City Journal states thai
recently close to a thousand dollars
was paid to the postoffice of that city
for the distribution of their catalogS
to places in the state. The company
gets away from the zone postage law
by shipping several carloads of cata.
logs 90 Rapid City by freight and then
mailing them TO the people who live
inside of the third zone from there.
This does away with an enormous ex-
pense and shows how they can COM
pete with the local merchant when 1t
comes to selling goods. The Journal
also states that the company keeps a
large supply of catalogs on hand at
Rapid City and when requests are
made to the home office for these, the
same is forwarded to the city in this
state to be filled at a much less ex'
pense thar If the house complied with
the request from the home office. This
is a grave injustice TO the newspapers
and other periodicals who use the
mills legitimately, and also is a source
of danger to the success of all local
business. 1t would seem as If the local
merchant could spend almost anything
in advertising 20 his home customers
so as to cut out this menace n pre-
serve the business for the home deal
ers. II Ia also another instance OF tho
harm which the local merchant has TO
contend with when he does not let his
customers know that he is supplied
with the articles of merchandise which
they require. II mail order houses can
use these methods, this great amount
of labor and all of this detail In adj
ministrative expense in order to get
customers. how much more necessary
is IL for the local dealer to keep his
wares before the public and do all
that he can to keep the community in
which ne lives from spending their
money away from home. Dollars spent
in answer to the mailing of these cata-
logs all go out of the state and little
or none at all. m back in
the way OF good for the very people
who take advantage of the prices
quoted therein. II the home merchants
tell the people what they have
to sell, then the mail order house could
not go 10 ali this great expense 10 do
business, and still make money. There
Is a little moral attached to this tale
and 1t will bear study.

strangers and were being introduced
to the local lei In pure jest, w
were then introduced to a competitive
editor, and to carry out the fun, we
shook hands. This started the CONVEX
sation, and the strangers suggested
that we took a "fall-out" occasionally
at each other in u papers. We re
piled negatively, and this brought out
the truthful statement that such tao
tics are old-fashioned and out of date
The time was when II was thought
that an editor was weak, and had
missed his calling, if he did not abuse
his competitor, and in turn was abused
by him. II all made good reading-or
good sport for the readers, who
either took sides, or made up their
minds that both adverse statements
were true, and the standard of the
country publisher was thereby seri-
ously lowered.
These times are past. The newspa-
fills a logical place in the community.
The editor no longer asks the adver-
tiser to use some space, just to keep
the paper going, but on the contrary
admonishes his advertiser not to use
the space unless ii is going TO result in
a definite advantage, and the editor can
now entertain the sheriff in his place
of business without fear cf his spring
ing a foreclosure instrument.
In the same bunch of men above re-
to, there was one who boosted
that at one time back in the dim and
dutsy past, he was IN attache OF a
country printing Office, but now he was
a salesman. We did not spill the
beans. but we could have told Mr..
Salesman that if he had stayed by the
game, end had piled it with
he same diligence he had the sales
nan game. he would be making more
money than was represented by his
monthly salary.
But, having made such progress in
recent years, what is ahead for the
publisher? We believe there
s a brighter future than there has ever
,een in the past. The country pub
Usher must take his place in his COM
nunity, push his business, and at such
,rices that he will be partially indie
PENDENT of this or that little fellow who
las had a few thousand dollars left
lin, and believes he is ordained to die
ate to the less fortunate publisher,
waste no time tearing down the other
elbow, but rather glory in his sue
esses, and keep in mind the profess
ion as a whole rather than his one lit
lie cog in the great wheel, have faith
n the future, and he will be rewarded.

SANITY is RETURNING

Argus Leader - Conservative labor
leaders at last have begun to speak
words of caution to their union mem
bers against further strikes for bigger
pay and shorter hours. They point
out that when wages are raised and
hours are shortened, the cost of pro.
duction is increased which calls for
another increase in wages which in
turn results in another boost III prices.
They are frank to say that this pyra-
miding of increased wages and living
costs cannot go on indefinitely. that
the mad race must stop soon, and that
the sooner it is stopped, the less will
be the disaster both TO industry and
to labor. They declare for an armis-
tice against strikes and further wage
demands while the government ex-
hausts its remedies to stop profteer,
ing and to start prices once more
downward. If these efforts fail. wages
will have to be permanently adjusted
on a higher level; but nobody will be
any better off for labor will be paid
iOi Dut l0utSt ClOlIluS anu lOOu 4
cost more and there will be nothing
more to show at the end of the year.
The cause of the trouble is not far
to seek. For FIVE years, the world has
been destroying wealth. Millions of
men stopped production and became
consumers. The worlds surplus stocks
were exhausted, its raw materials used
up and its production cut in half. The
result was a shortage and a shortage
always means high prices. The rem
edy Is to increase production. II this
is done. the world will gradually begin
to accumulate a surplus stock once
more. Prices will begin to fall and
living conditions will grow more %tolera-
BILE. Instead Of demanding shorter
hours which means decreased produc-
ton and consequent higher costs labor
should cooperate with capital in the
task of maintaining production at a
high point for the greater good of all.
There are many indications that Ia
hor is beginning to take this view. for
the workingman suffers greatest from
an industrial paic. The president of
the locomotive engineers has spoken
his word of warning to the railroad
men. He has urged them to be salts
fed with present wages and present
hours and to cooperate to make the
item of transportation cost the public
as little as possible. The employees
of a big southern steel plant have
voted against a demand for shorter
hours, taking the position that the
country needs greater production in
stead of less. This is .ine; but labor
which made many and great sacrifices
during the war. has a right to ask
that they be met half way in this
worthy movement. The profteer must
be brought to look and the employer
must be content with smaller profits.
That wages will permanently settle
upon q higher scale than before the
war Is likely: and this Is desirable.
But the adjustment must be reached
upon a iivabie basis for all; and the
best way to start the adjustment on
q fair and honest basis Is for every
body TO get down to work and to bring
production up to : high point as soon
as possible. Then prices win fall.

WORK is THE SOLUTION

Minneapolis Journal = Ninety-nine
out of a hundred young persons who
feel the prompting to reform their
%neighbors and uplift the world have
neither the proper knowledge nor the
adequate talent. If they yearn to sac
rifice, let them sacrifice their grandi-
cose aspirations and sublime conceit
by getting out and hoeing corn, or
milking cows, or cooking meals. or
scrubbing floors.
The hard work of the world is what
counts. Producing something to eat
or wear is the mnin performance.
Doing that, one cannot go wrong
Whereas prescribing your rules for
others conduct Is a business which
has more often been wrong than
right, which has filled the world with
woe. The kaiser is the last great
"uplifter," who on the plea of kultur
caused 1000, 900 men to be killed and
persons to be injured. Most
zealots have worked mischief. al.
though few on such an exalted scale.
What the American people need
right now is to go to work, to pro-
duce. to save dollars. Work will solve
a lot of hocus-pocus to boot. What
America and the world requires from
all OF US just now is production. But
too many do not care for so dull a
business. They would rather reform
everybody else, regulate everybody
else's habits, prescribe rules for So
ciety in general and hand down moral
decisions for all to obey. They burn

SELECT PIGS FOR BREEDING
Animals Should Not Be Pushed, but
Kept Growing Nicely to Develop
Bone and Muscle.

Pigs selected for breeding purposes
should be kept growing nicely. but they
must not be pushed, for the whole OBJ
ject of their feeding is to make them
stretch out and develop bone and
muscle In place of fat. They should
be continued on growing ration. A
little skim milk and shorts make
good ration. A small amount of
ground oats and cracked corn will help
develop and insure normal growth. But
corn should be used sparingly as II Is
too fattening for pigs. Remember that
these pigs should also have an album

MUSIC OF AMERICAS
GREATEST COMPOSER
PLAYED BY HIS WIFE

After her recital before large au-
dience in GAINESVILLE o.. Mrs. Edward
MacDowell was warmly praised by the
GAINESVILLE Signal for her interpreta-
ton of the music of Americas fore
most composer 1t had the following
to say of her work:
"One of the most gifted pianists
who has appeared before GAINESVILLE
audience in a long time, Mrs. Edward
Mcdowell delighted her hearers
with her piano recital at the home of
Mrs. Charles Francis Chappelear. In
playing the Mcdowell music Mrs
MacDowell proved herself pianist of
wonderful feeling, splendid technique,
and clear warm tone. In hearing the
music as it was played Monday night
it seemed like an echo of the past,
since many of the numbers were
played by the composer himself for
US. While 1t is superfluOus to speak
of her technique, too much cannot be
said of the value to the music stu
dent of this opportunity that beauti-
full and traditional Interpretation of
the MacDowell music together with
Mrs. MacDowelrs wonderful rythm
and tone. The large and enthusiastic
audience demanded repeated encores,
and seven extra numbers were played
before the final close of the recital"
Mrs. MacDowell will appear before
an Albuquerque audience next Satur
day at o'clock in the Presbyterian
church, under the auspices of the
Fortnightly Music club.
