Last fall in a small manufacturing town in the Middle West' a factory was compelled to close because of lack of demand for its products—many men were thrown out of work—and the consumption of meat in that one town alone dropped ofF over $80.00; per mnth. When people are out of work, they simply cannot buy abun dantly of the farmers’ produce and the financial predicament of the ag ricultural communities is further ag gravagated. "The farmer is dependent upon the city worker to buy what he raises— die manufacturer is largely depend ent upon the agricultural communi ties to buy what he makes—and if hie goods are not sold, his employees ore thrown out of work and their buy ing power is crippled, which imme diately effects the sale of farm pro duce—banks “tighten up” and the condition becomes worse than before. “Thus we have an endless circle of dependencies—which explains our recent business depression. “Right r.ow, everyone wants busi ness to "open up”—but most of us wait for the other fellow to make the first move. “Mind you, I am not saying that the fault is with the farmer, or the manufacturer, or the banker, or the dealer—or any other one class. It’s _ everybody’s fault lt’s everybody's problem—and if everyone will do his * full share without waiting to sc-e whet p the other fellow is going to do the 5) problem will soon save itself. I “The farmer should buy what he reeds,this is nothing more than com mon sense—because If a man really needs a thing he pays for it whether he buys or not. “Credit, as applied to so basic an industry as agriculture should be stretched to the limit. “The manufacturer should do ev erything within his power t. kee > the wheels of industry moving, even though it may be necessary to tempo rarily at a loss. By so doing he is keeping the city man employed, thereby insuring his purchasing pow er and safeguarding the iunire of the manufacturer’s own interest “Of course, when you com 1 right down to it, few of us are rca 1 • phi lanthropists at heart. Wo Ameri cans, of the great middle class—in cluding farmers and implement deal ers—are inol’e interested in our own little problems than in the matter of “saving the country.” “But it isn’t a question of plnlan — thropy. It’s a question of good busi _ ness—a question of doing a thing be cause it will pay—a question of con structive selfishness and I m not trying to “pass the buck” to tne other fellow. Right now, I am lining u my little business in accordance with this prescription—l am going t*> sell farm operating equipment for cmsid -1 erably less than the manufacturing costs—with terms that take into enn ! sideration the financial condition of the farmers of this community. But jof course, that’s a subject for th< ad vertising pages instead of editorial columns.” The Ideal Purgative. As a purgative, Chamberlain’s Tablets are the exact thing required.
