AN OBJECT LESSON
TO HOME ADVERTISERS.
An exchange contains the fol
lowing, and while there may not
be a word of truth in it, so far
as its actual occurrence is con
cerned, yet it presents very for
cibly a condition that in fact ex
ists:
“The other day a lojal mer
chant happened to see a farmer
receiving some goods at a freight
office at the depot and noticed
that they came from Sears, Roe-
buok & (Jo., the Chicago mail or*
der house. He noticed also that
the goods were right in his line
and the same he had carried in
his store for years. He immedi
ately approached the farmer and
said, “I could have sold you eve
ry article you have there for less
money than you paid the Chi
cago house and saved your freight
besides.’ ‘Then why didn’t you
say so?’ inquired the farmer. ‘I
have taken two. county papers
for a year .and have never seen a
line about you selling these goods.
Sears, Roebuck & Co. sent adver
tising matter to me asking me
lor my trade—and they got it.
If you have any bargains why
don’t you put them in the paper,
so we can see what thbj are?’
That ended the argument and
the merchant went up to corral
other non-advertising merchants
and explained to them that Sears,
Roebuck & Co. was ruining their
business.”
There is a mail order problem.
The effect upon trade in some
sections of the country has al
ready been felt to the extent
that small retail dealers have
been forced to quit business.
The worst is yet to come, and
it’s time something was being
done by the retail merchants of
the country to stop the terrible
slaughter of their own interests.
The mail order people are doing
a greater and greater business
every year, and of course what
they gain is lost to some local
retail dealer. What is the rem
edy? Give them plenty of their
medicine. “Fight the devil with
fire,” so to speak, by judicious
advertising.
This article is not prompted
by any selfish desire on the part
of the editors of this paper to
fatten their own pocket book.
The advtee to advertise would be
given, if we had the opportunity,
even if we were not in the news
paper business. It is the only
remedy for curtailing the trade
of the great mail order concerns.
It is the methods used by them,
and is the only way they can be
successfully competed with. If
the local dealer expects to sell
the goods he must take some
pains to tell of his wares and the
prices of the same, as the mail
order man does. In fact, the
former has the great advantage
that he is on the ground and is

Or, do you want to know something of tho
composition and character of that which
you take into your stomach whether as

Most Intelligent and sensible peoplo
now-u-Uiiys Insist on knowing what they

Dr. 1’ioreo believes they liavo a perfect
right to insist upon such knowledge. So ho

personally acquainted with the
people with whom he has to deal.
He has better advertising facili
ties in the local weekly paper
that visits the home and is read
around the fireside of the verv
people to whom he expects to
sell. If the mail order man
could afford to use the space of
the thousands of local papers over
the country their power would
soon be felt to a much greater
extent than it is to-day, wheu
they are depending upon their
giant catalogs and occasional ad
vertisements in local papers.
Have you ever noticed their ad-
vertiseing? Noticed how particu
lar they are in the minute descrip
tion of the goods and that the
price is always very prominently
displaved? That is good adver
tising. Their catalogs are pre
pared in the same manner. A
buyer knows just what he is buy
ing before be orders and the firm
agrees to refund the money if
the goods are not satisfactory.
One big wholesale firm—one
of the largest in the entire coun
ty—one that has built up its
enormous trade by catalog—has
just issued a booklet on the
“mail order problem,” in which
they advocate the Bame remedy
that we suggest above—a free
and judicious use of printers’ ink.
It will pay any retail dealer to
read this booklet and it may be
had for the asking.
The Item is not a calamity
howler, but we desire to go on
record as having sounded a note
of warning. There is a mail or
der problem and it ftiust be solv
ed, if it is solved at all, by the
local retailer, and the solution is

WHAT ARE YOU DOINd?
The following, taken from Vil
lage Life, will apply as a remind
ed as well to those living in the
larger town or city as well as in
the village:
“What are you doing for your
village? Not to make it better
for the visitor, but to make it
better for yourself, and for all
the people who live in it. In
these days there is so much that
each can do, and one person can
do so much. It is safe to say
that no village will lag behind if
there lives in it one person who
realizes how much better it
might be who has the courage of
his Knowledge. It is so easy, so
simple, so expensive, to begin to
improve the village that there is
no excuse for doing nothing in
that direction.
A village improvement associ
ation with one member is better
than none. The first one ever
organized had but one member
for several years, and that one a
woman. If there is a live im
provement society of any sort in
your village, it is well. If there
is a society which is not alive,
or if there is none, it is up to you
to see that somethiug is done,
and right away, to get life into
the existing society or get a new
one goiug.”
