derstandings are bound to happen in this world.
 The prosperity of one always
 reaches out and includes others; one good new building helps the adjoining property; a prosperous precinct helps the city and prosperous city must of necessity help the surrounding community, the county and the state
 A friend hands us the following let ter, and while it only deals with one phase of the big question, it applies to every business from printing to plant ing. As ia concrete example, take The Sun. Some fifteen people are de- pendent on it for living. If the work that is sent to Kansas and Cali fornia was all centered here, the men who send it out would get results from thirty people here for the ten per cent they seem to think they are saving, with twenty per cent profit. Aside from that they would be build ing up business and a home town worthy of the name.
 Hans Garbus is a farmer in Iowa. He wrote a letter the other day, be- cause he wanted to place on record the story of how he helped to pull his own home town to pieces. 1t sum- marized his experience, and that of his neighbors, in neglecting their home town merchants to "save" money by patronizing the mail-order houses. This letter is a human document Hans Garbus writes just as he would tell us, and it rings true. Let every chamber of commerce and commercial club hand this to their farmers--it ought to be read in every town and hamlet in the West. ..s
 "We farmers need awakening to the fact that we have unmistakably reach ed the period where we must think and plan. l am a farmer that had to be shown and l am now giving my experience that others may profit, for knowledge is more expensive now than ten years ago.
 "Twenty-nine years ago began my farm career. l had an old team and $50. Our furniture was mostly home made-chairs, cupboards and lounge made from dry goods boxes, neatly covered with ten-cent cretonne by my girl wife. We rented eighty acres. Being boy of good habits l got all needed machinery and groceries of our hometown merchants on credit until fall crops were sold. The first year was wet season and I did not make enough to pay creditors. l went, to each on date of promise and explained paying what 1 could, and they carried the balance over another year. They continued to accommodate me until l was able to buy a forty acre piece of my own.

 The ban is now removed. Unless we get busy now, if we do not progress, then the fault is ours. It's up to you investors and home builders. The big need is greater now for homes, new and modern business blocks, stores and apartment houses.

HOW TO BUILD UP THE
 OLD HOME TOWN

The building up of community or city is man-sized job. "It takes all kinds of people to make world," is just as true of town. The peevish- ness of few business men, ranchers or stockmen should not result in clas- sifying all the same way. Of course, one kicker can crab more than ten good boosters can overcome, yet there are more boosters than there are kick CTS, at least that is so in most towns and communities.
