PATRIOTISM AT HOME

Patriotism should begin at home: extend out
thence over the country; thence the State
and Nation The patriotism that does not include
its own nest. its own family and its surround
ings is not much patriotism. nationally any
other way We should all think of these things con-
tinually for they are vital to best interests and
welfare and the best interests OF family,
friends and neghbors. There is always argument
on both sides Of any question, but the basic facts
remain. just the same, and should not lose
sight Of those basic facts As a rule goods can
be purchased in the home town as cheap in
other towns or cities not all things. but the ma
jority Of the commodities which Some
articles may be a bit higher once in a while but it

But even il it did cost trife more to trade
at home than to send money away to the cities
still i would be cheaper in the long to buy at
home and let the money circulate around the
town. each dollar doing a hundred dollars worth
OF business before it finally slips away.
II we do not build up town, and all our
interests in it, for homes or anything else will fall
flat and we will all lose out. Any way you want

UNTHOUGHTEDNESS

We are sure that the people who Patronizes

disc business, sold a guarantee that would

It is very ungratefu indeed for a man to ride
to town over a road that improved through
the energy and progressiveness OF home mer
chant then let peddler sell him a lot of goods
that are not worth carrying home, and we are sure
that those who patronize the peddlers do not think
of this side of the proposition realize that
from the substantial guaranteed, and well Sc

secure much better goods at the same price

side of this proposition, and be a little more
thoughtful. there would be room the streets

A writer has truthfully said: Your ship will
never come in unless you have sent out One
which you have not sent out may find its way
into your harbor weighed down with gems and
wealth untold but it will not be the result Of
your doing You may find a fortune or inherit
one but if you. gain it yourself you must play
the game. The effort of everyone to get ahead
in the world makes for progress and creates more
wealth. Without that incentive things soon would
come to a standstill. The person who is not con
nually striving to do better is not standing still
he is going backward. One must either go for
ward backward. Just try standing still in bust
ness. You find that someone comes along and
givse you a push in one direction or the other.

WHERE THE FARMER SUFFERS

The price of farm products are down. close to
the 9l4 level That would be fine if other eom-
modities down in proportion. But high
wages still prevail in the cities in all lines. This
means that the manufacturer and wholesaler must
continue to charge the country merchant high
hight prices for his goods The country merchant
in turn must charge the farmer in proportion to
what he himself pays to the manufacturer whole
saler. Very simple and easily understood, but
anything but satisfactory to the farmer.-Ex.
