their doors ; newspipers have to
quit ; the hotels go out of busi
ness ; mechanics move away
schools and churches dwindle
sidewalks go to wreck ; building
wouid be vacated , unpainted ant
dilapidated ; strangers would take
one look and flee. Isn't tha
precisely what would happen o
an entire couuty was populated
with people who bought every
thing in Chicago ? Who would
buy a farm so located ? Be a
