"Speaking of children," said that busy piece of money, "why don't people look ahead a little? They think they are giving their hoys and girls a good start in life, when as a matter of fact they are handicapping them heavily. "You and 1 know what it means for young people to make a start in the city. We know how many more good chances there are at home—or ought to lie. Yet lots of folks, thinking they are saving money, tear down their county town instead of building it up, by buying everything possible from the cata log houses. "When the children grow up they must stay on the farm or go to the city, for no town can grow and offer opportunities to a young man unless its merchants are patronized. And few boys, seeing how close the sheriff is behind the business men of his own town, will stay there while the distant city attracts them. "The good people have forced their boys and girls into the fearful grind of the city by their own shortsightedness. The home town goes downhill, while the mail order houses get rich." "Farm values are always higher if there is a good live town in the county," responded the $50 yellowback. "When the fanner sells out and retires he fan get a stiff price because he sells location as well as land. Why, farm land around C'enter vills here—where folks keep their money working right around in a circle so that it gets back to them—is worth a quarter more than around Mossdale, where the land is just as good. But the Mossdale country has the mail order bug. "It is human nature to want a good town to come to once in a while, and we are all willing to pay for a live town's ad vantages. The people in the Mossdale district send all their money to Chicago and the other mail order centers. Conse quently their land is worth less money. They haven't figured yet that no territory, drained of its cash constantly by a city which buys nothing from it in return, can offer any inducement to investors or newcomers. A good local market is worth money to the owner of farm land, and you can't have a good market if there is no live town. "Some people think the local furniture dealer, the cloth ier, the grocer and the hardware man are robbing them be cause there is but one or two stores of that kind in the town. 1 hat is one excuse for mail order buying. "Here is proof to the contrary: City people are not a bit smarter than country folks, and they fall for the catalog with the pretty pictures just the same. Why, I heard that Omaha sends $250,000 a year to one eastern house that has a fascinat ing scheme for selling soap. Now Omaha has a lot of good stores, big ones, and competition is so keen that 'robbery' is impossible. People there have some other excuse for 'buying a pig in a poke' T suppose, and they get trapped the same wa X" (Copyright, 1914).
