THE POWER OF A
TEN DOLLAR BILL

Consider the power of ten
dollar bill when it is spent at
home. 1t works like magic. 1t
circulates. 1t pays off hundred
obligations. 1t creates business
and puts people to work in our
community. But the ten dollar
bill that is sent away to the OUT
of-town house does nothing for
our town. 1t becomes dead to us.
1t is out of commission forever as
far as our town is concerned. We
never see it again. Let us. then,
give power to the money, we
spend. Leh us remember that
our best investment is that power
money we spend at home.
Do justice to your city by trad
ing at home. It's money that
you spend at home which makes
your city prosper and at the same
time means more employment
and bigger business. The mer-
chants of Yerington are prepared
to serve you faithfully and we'll.
They are deserving of your pat
ronage.
Spend your money where it will
be respent.

ed upon to account for his stand
ing in and his services to the

hard work in the greatly expand
ed program Of activity, which the
church has laid out for the next
three years.
1 Money will be needed but the

the total sum, for the western do

1is expected in raising the money
the new program requires. The
total cost to the Pensioners in the
| diocese of California, will be q
| little less than three cents day
/ Not a town or hamlet in the
| west but has its campaign com
mittee, SO that local communi
cants of the Episcopal faith may
expect a visit within the next

FARMER, LABoRER
AND PR PRIEToR

The typical farmer has every
reason to be opposed to bolshevik
radicalism. Though he works
with his hands and is a laborer in
the most literal sense, he is also
a proprietor capitalist, if you
please, and an employer Of labor.
AS a consumer he naturally favors
reasonable prices for commodi-
ties in general, as seller OF pro-
ducts he as inevitably deplores
industrial disturbances affecting
the prosperity Of the market, and
as an employer he is out OF SYM
pathy with abnormally high
wages and unreasonably shorten
ed hours. The agriculturists, who
form nearly third Of our popu-
lation, are and have need to be
loyal to established institutions
are and have need to be conserva-
tive force in the country.
| Organizations which advise the
farmer to adopt radical and SO
cialistic measures as a means te
secure special privileges for thu
| farmers as class, are advocating
policy which if carried to Z
final conclusion could only NEAR
the wiping out of the individual
ownership of landand farms II
this nation. Farmers as a ruiz
see this danger.
