The Dollar Spent at Home
Is the Dollar That Counts
Few people realize how many debts a dollar can
pay or how many articles a dollar can pnrchase when
it is kept going. You pay your doctor, he pays his
merchant; the merchant pays his landlord, the land
lord pays his builder; the builder pays his laborer or
his artisan and they in turn pass it to the grocer, and
it goes back round the circle.
In the cases enumerated above, one dollar has
done the work of six. Every dollar kept in Jackson
and kept in circulation can contribute to the support,
comfort and happiness of from erne to ten people
every day it circulates. Sent to another city its pur
chasing power and debt-paying power goes with it,
and is ended with it, in so far as we are concerned.
Of course, we realize that there are certain ar
ticles. which are not, and cannot be produced here
and must be purchased elsewhere. In cases of this
sort everyone knows that the wholesale rates are the
cheapest and that less money leaves the town if goods
are purchased wholesale. It is in the wholesale pur
chase of goods that your retail merchant performs a
useful and necessary function. He makes a study of
the markets and of your wants and orders at the
lowest wholesale prices. Competition holds his pro
fits to a reasonable figure, and whatever they are
they remain at home.
Every article bought away from home the com
munity loses the cash represented in the retailers’
profit as well as the manufacturers’first cost. Again,
when you are in hard lines you call on your local
dealer to extend you credit—you wouldn’t think of
asking the out-of-town man to do this. Why should a
man ask favors of his friends and neighbors and send
hisfavors all away to strangers?
When vou pay cash, pay cash at home, and let
the cash stay where you will have another chance at
it. Maybe it will come back to you. If it does notit
will come to your neighbor, and vou ought to think
more of him than you do of a corporation away from
home.
A prosperous community must produce more than
it consumes, and the more home production and uni
ted efforts are encouraged the better off the commu
nity will be. Buy at home.
