HOME MERCHANTS
AND ADVERTISING’
One of the most notable facts
connected with a country newspa
per of today is the large increase
in the amount of advertising of
local business houses. The change j
has taken place gradually, and
i_i....i_i _a_:_
iiao utui liiaiALU ^o^v.uauji uuim^
the past year or so. It is highly
significant and an inquiry as to
the cause of it is of great profit,
not only to those in the newspa
per business, but to every business
man and citizen of our town as I
well.
The change, in brief, means
that local merchants have found
it necessary to call attention to
their goods because of the im
mense competition they face, the
most deadly element of which is
that from the great stores of the
large cities. These great establish
ments advertise their wares most
lavishly, and the metropolitan
newspapers which contain their
advertisements are distributed
over the country, some one paper
of which enters nearly ever home.
The result is that these metropoli
tan establishments have built up
an immense mail trade.
In our town and indeed in most
of the towns hereabouts, there is
no occassion for this out-of-town
(Copyright, by McCluro Syndicate.)
buying. The duty of citizens in
the matter is plain, and where
other things are equal, support
should be given local dealers.
Our merchants have invested
their capital, have erected build
ings, which are the pride of the
town and have established con
cerns which are almost metropoli
tan in character. They have built
up our little city, and it is only a
fair return that they have the
city’s trade. To turn trade other
wise, even in the line of small pur
chases which are great in the ag
gregate, is to invite the decline of
property values in our own town.
The voters will have a chance
at the bond issue amendment
again in September. This will
build the towns and cities, and in
so doing will advance the state*
The countryman will not be af
fected in the least in taxes chang
ed under the bond amendment,
but should be patriotic enough to
advocate its adoption and thus in
crease the value of his property
by permitting the towns and cities
io grow. __
When you want any article of |
merchandise buy it of any reput
able home dealer, that the profit
may remain to enrich the com
munity. Send your money abroad
only for what you cannot pur
chase at home. Home talent,home
labor, home industry, home capi
tal, and home pleasures are things
to be fostered, encouraged and
patronized.
This year’s wheat crop, the
largest ever raised in this country,
is estimated at 900,000,000 bush
els, or about ten bushels for every
man, woman and child.

One of the pressing needs of!
the hot season is a belt that will

shirt tail down.
Making; a Good
Crop
Is a very important matter with the farmer.
You cannot make a good crop without good
tools to work with, so it is VERY IMP OR i'AN I
that >ou equip yourself with plenty of GOOD
TOOLS if you expect to farm successfully. No
man ever made a success on the farm who did
not equip himself with the necessary tools and
implements for doing good work.
^ I have a complete line of the famous Moline
implements of all kinds, and it will pay you to
investigate the merits and the prices of these
implements. They are the latest improved,
are honestly built and are sold very reasonable.

Col. Henry Watterson of the
Louisville Courier-Journal refers
to Mrs. Pankhurst as “Old Hell’s
Delight.” Those old Kentucky
colonels, when they get a few
mint juleps under* their belt, of

by their right name.
Claud L. Coger formerly editor
of the Sharp County Record has
bought Geo. H. Trevathan's in

of the the best newspaper men in
North Arkansas.
In New York City six prominent
men have been sentenced to jail
for election frauds, and 16 others
have been given heavy fines for
the same offense. All the election
