Support Home Industries. Whenever a plan la suggested for tho development of the town the first sug gestion, Invariably, Is "Bring In more Industries." It is customary to throw out nil sorts of Inducements for the locntlon of fractorles, Including oxemp tlon from taxes for a time, free sites, houses, and these methods have contrib uted so much toward building up hurt dreds of prosporous municipalities that their wisdom can not be queslloncd. Anything that will add to our desirable population, that will give employment to mon who support families nnd thus contribute to Uio general welfare, is at nil times desirable. Hut tho neonlo who Join heartily In tho work of bringing In new industries, nnd who show tho greatest enthusiasm over this feature of the public work In which nil good citizens share, some times are tho first to forgot that tho now industries brought in nnd the old ones already hero rcqulro continuous Bupport and fajling to get it, become nhindrnnco rather than an aid to development. Wo are apt to overlook, too, tho fact that the homo merchant is entitled tq as much consideration as tho factory which wo hnvo obtained by special effort. The merchant la n necessity ovon more so than tho factory; for who carea to Hvo in n community whore thoro are no stores, or where tho stores nro closed and tinned nnd the mor clmnU have raovod nwny, forced to other fields by luck of patronage? Tho rotnll store, properly conducted, is an industry that should. linv tho sup port of ovary loynl citizen. Our pride in tho home town Is measured by our willingness In support iU merchants and it Industrie!. It is rot necessary to build a Chinese wall around our communityto reftlM to buy outaiua when We caii do so to advantage. But tho mnu who vill,wnd away fur something that ho can buy at home on us good or bettor terms needs "education njiij lacks loyalty."- Some time), unfortunately, the vary ono who should bo least liable to this critlcium tho loonl merchnnt, In given to sending abroad for things which ho ought tq i!SXlrSIfl iHilRnbgrg, Then, again, thoro In tho. fnrnior who finds it easier lomnll his order to u big city than to coma to towjUj;; Often ho Is handicapped by'bad. roads "and thus hits n valid ex cuse. But lin ought to bo able to buy by mail from our own merchanto tut sufoly and ns mlvantngoouBly as from Homoone lit distance with whom ho htm no acquaintance. If he is not furnished tho facilities It Is timo fbrl tho Improvement of our merchandising muthodfi. And lie ought to liuvo good roads that would mnko n trip to town a pleasure. Itfuch romnjno to ho dono to streng then our locnT businoas interests. Wo ought to glvo renl support to nny move that will tend to keep our monoy ut home.
