a SIMPLE REMEDY
ONE OF THE WAYS TO CURTAIL
OPERATIONS OF TRUSTS.
—
HOME PATRONAGE PRINCIPLES
Systems That Oppose the Advance
ment of Rural Towns and Agri
cultural Communities.
Never before have the people of the
country been so awakened to the im
portance of home protection as they
are at present. The wide knowledge
spread by means of the public press
as to the operations of the great trusts
and how the masses are made to serve
the more favored classes is having its
effect. The residents of agricultural
communities are beginning to realize
the dangers of business concentration
in sections of the country dominated
by the capitalistic classes. They are
fast becoming aroused to the truth
that this concentration is a menace to
the prosperity of the nation, and di
rectly affects every producer, every
laborer and every citizen of the coun
try who depends upon his work for
support
J. I1C UU11U1I1& up VI LIUSLO WUJ
menced less than a score of years ago.
At the same time there were other
systems inaugurated that tended to
wards robbing the home towns of
business and concentrating this busi
ness in the large cities. One of these
systems, most notable in its injurious
operations and its force to draw
wealth from communities where it is
produced, is the mail-order system of
business. None will say that this sys
tem is illegitimate, but no economist
can show wherein its principles are
sound. By the system communities
are impoverished and kept from pro
gressing. He who will give study to
the basis of country development will
see that it is the labor employed that
not alone enhances the value of the
farm lands, but builds up the towns.
When there is little to employ this la
bor, the result is depression, stagna
tion and non-progress. The great evil
of the mail-order system which has
grown up, is its taking away the
means that small towns have of em
ploying labor, and the drawing from
each community the profits in com
mercial transactions that represents
the wealth that is procured. It is
sophistry to claim that the resident of
a community who sends his money to
a foreign town and saves the ten per
cent, that may represent the home
merchant's profits, is not a factor in
impoverishing the community. While
the saving may remain in the com
munity the employment of labor essen
tial to every business is given to the
foreign place, and the home town is
robbed of this employment giving
power.
Every dollar that is sent away from
a community where it is produced
either by the tilling of the soil, by the
growing of live stock, by the work of
the day laborer, or by the storekeeper,
impoverishes the community to that
extent, and this dollar ceases to be
any factor in the advancement of the
community. Presuming that there are
in a community 2,000 people, suppose
that each one of these 2,000 people
send away to some foreign place $50
per year. This in the aggregate is
$100,000 per year that goes to the sup
port of a foreign town. Suppose that
each one sending his money away
saves ten per cent.; the savings for a
year would be $5, and in ten years $50.
Ix>ok at the other side—$100,000 busi
ness per year would support in the
home town five good stores. Each one
of these stores would give employ
ment to a number of hands. The small
percentage of profit that would be
made would be retained in the com
munity and be invested in new enter
prises. Year after year there would
be a continual increase in the pros
perity of the town, and the building
up process would add to the value of
all the town property, and to the
farms within the trading radius of the
town. While by sending away the
farmer would in ten years' time save
but $50, whereas by patronizing the
home town the profits that would
.come to him in substantial increase
in real estate values would be ten
times this amount. The building up
or the town would Improve the home
market, affording every producer on
the farms better prices for all his pro
duce.
Then there is another thing, the
town supports the churches, the
schools and other public institutions.
The efficiency of these institutions are 1
dependent upon the life and activity
of the town. Where poor towns exist
the schools do not receive the support
that is necessary to make them good,
neither are the churches of the high
standard they should be. Home pat
I ronage means good schools, good
churches and all conveniences that
add to the pleasure and enlightenment
of a people.
All the residents of a community
have common interests in it_the
banker, the lawyer, the doctor, the
merchant, the farmer, the day laborer
—all have equal interests. Thus we
find that a community is in realitv a
large cooperative assembly. What is
of interest to one is of material inter
est. to the other. Blit more important
than all is that by a practice of the
home patronage principle the possibili
ties of building up trusts for the con
trol of industries of the country are
reduced to the minimum; in fact, a
strict adherence to this simple princi
ple of building up and protecting home
industries precludes the building up
of harmful trusts and combinations.

MADE USE OF HER LEGACY.
Aunt's Bequest of Use to Ease Niece's
Feeling.
When people asked Miss Amanda
Green what she received from her
aunt in the city as a legacy, Miss
Green always smiled grimly and step
ped toward her fireplace.
“Aunt always said she should re
member me in her will," Miss Green
would say, “and although 1 knew the
family traits. I did calculate on a few
hundred dollars, she being worth
somewhere up in the hundred thou
sands. But what she didn’t leave to
her son all went to the college where
he got his education.
“It was stated in the will that 1
was to choose ‘any remembrance
from among the household furnish
| ings that I wished.
“I chose this pair o’ bellows,” and
j Miss Green would lift a well-worn
| article from the peg where it hung.
! “Some folks wouldn't sense the fun
I've got out o' these old things. Aunt
Rebecca wouldn't ever let ’em be
used for fear they'd start the fire up
too much. I've sat over a dying blaze
in her fore-room with my eyes on
this pair o’ bellows till it seemed as
if my gaze would fetch ’em right off
their hook!
“Now I take ’em down, even when
’tisn't necessary, and I work ’em back
and forth hard as 1 can. and it eases
my feelings so that by the time I hang
’em up I'm ready to say: ’Poor old
Aunt Rebecca!' instead of—well,
something quite different."—Youth's

TEACHER WAS ALL RIGHT.
Hjfd Answered All Questions in a Sat
isfactory Manner.
I was staying over night with a far
mer, says a writer in the Chicago
Daily News, and after supper we were
talking about educational matters,
when I mentioned the fact that I had
passed a schooihouse about two miles
west of his farm that afternoon and
that the female teacher, who was
standing in the door, was an intelli
gent-looking girl.
“Yes, l got her the place,” he re
plied.
“Then you are what is called the
moderator? You had to ask her vari
ous questions to see if she was fitted
for the place?”
“Well, not so very many. I asked
her about the Rocky mountains and
the Atlantic ocean and who Shake
speare was, and she answered right
off. Then I said something about
Turkey and how many times 10 went
into 80 and her answers showed me
she was right up to the mark. Then
1 asked her in case my old woman
died during the summer if she’d mar
ry me in the fall, and she said she’d
be durned glad to, and I told her to
bring along her duds and take the
job.”
