Many people who make their living out of town sends off to New York, Chicago, or 9ome other big Northern or Western city and buy many of the things they could buy at home. In a recent issue of the Tradesmen a farmer cave some michtv cood advip.e on this subject, which all of us should heed. This farmer gives the follewing reasons for buying his goods in his home market: Because my interests are here. Because tiie community that is good enough for me to live in is good enough for me to buy in. Because 1 believe in transacting business with my friends. Because I want to s-ee the goods. Because I want to get what I buy when I pay for it. Because my home dealer "carries" ma H'hpn T am run ahnrt, Because every dollar I spend at home stays at home and helps work for the welfare of the city. Because the man I buy from stands back ot the goods. Because I sell what I produce here at home. Because the man I buy from pays his part of the town, county and city ,taxes. Because the man I buy from gives value received always. Because the man I buy from helps support my school, my church, my lodge, my home. The Voyage.

I'm sailing on, I'm sailing on, From infancy to age, And toil's the cargo that I bring To win my heritage, The waves of trouble buffet me, The seas of sorrow roil, Yet no disheanenment shall be To keep me from the goal. I'm sailing on, I'm sailing on, Through mist, and 9torm, and rain, Fair akipq and clondv alternate - I In days of joy and p_in. Where lies the port toward which I sail I know not, near or far, Yet of its winning I'll not fail, For love's my guiding star! Molasses Cookies.
