The Losing Side of Mail Order
Trading.
Mans Garbus, a German farmer of
Iowa, has discovered that the benefits
which appear on the surface a< attach
ing to the mail order plan sometimes
spell disaster, and has written a very
interesting story of his views in a lead
ing farm paper. Here is a part of his
story:
"We farmers need awakening to the
“Nine years ago my farm was worth
$196 an acre; to-day I’d have a hard
matter to sell it at SI67 an acre. It is
‘too far from a live town'-so every
farmer has said that wants to buy. He
wants a place near schools and churches,
where his children can have advantages.
I have awakened to the fact that in
I helping ‘o pull the town down, it has
i cost me $5,500 in nine years.”

grave.
on a green hillock, and a grave on the
i sunny southerly side. That is it.
Thither I hasten night and day, and in
patting the soft grass I feel as if con
veying some sense of love to the little
sleeper far down. Do not reason with
me about it; —let the heart, in its sweet
delirium of love, have its own way.
Baby was but two years old when,
where we must think and plan. I am
one of the slow German farmers that
had to he shown, and I am now giving
my experience that others may profit,
for knowledge is more expensive now
than ten years ago.
"Twenty-nine years ago I begun my
farm career. I had an old team and
$T>0. Our furniture was mostly home- j
made chairs, cupboard and lounge
made from dry goods b xes, neatly cov
ered with ten-ccnt cretonne Ly my girl
wife. We rented HO acres. Being
a boy of good habits. I got all needed
machinery and groceries of our home
merchants on credit, until fall crops
were sold. The first year was a wet
wiiaon und I did riot make enough to
pay my creditors. I went to each on
the date of promo ■ nnd explained con
ditions. [>aying us much as possible, and
they all carried the balance over anoth
er yt or. They continued to nrcnmmo-
dite me until I was able to buy a 40-
arre tract of my own.
"As soon as 1 became owner of these
few acres the mail order houses began
a-nding m- catalogues, and gradually 1
begun sending my loose chunge to them,
letting my accounts stand in my home
town, where 1 had gotten my accommo
dation when I needed it.
"We then had one of the thriftiest
little villages in the State good line of
business in all the branches, merchants
who were willing to help an honest fel
low over a had year, and a town full of
people who cuimi twice u week to trade
and visit. Our little country town sup
ported n library, high school, hall team,
ar.d we hud big celebrations every year.
"A farm near a live town soon doubles
in value. 1 sold my 40 acres at a big
sdvanc • an I h >ught HO acres, gradually
adding to it until I had 200 acren of the
best land in I own. 1 then felt no need
of asking favors, and found it easy

came almost daily to our door. I regret
to say that l was the first in the ci unty
to in V e ii)i a neighborhood loll and send
it laj a mail order house. Though we
got hi* every once in a while, we got in
the h ibit of sending away for stutT.
"Gradually our merchants lessened
their k:nf goods for lack of patron
mge. Finally we began to realize that
when we needed a holt quickly for ma
chinery, or clothinin for sickness or
death, we ha 1 to wait and send away
for it, which wasn't so pleasant. One
by one our merchants moved to places
where they were appreciated, and men
of less energy moved in. Gradually our
town has gone down; our business
houses are ‘tacWy’ in appearance, a
number are empty; our schools, churches
and wa'ks are going down; vre have no
hand, no library or hall team. There is
no business clone in the town, and there
fore no taxes to keep things up. Hotel

It is the tissue building, curative ele

An Auto Accident
With the last drop of gasoline gone,

roadside, fully six miles from S’.ruth-

was overj iyed wh-n he si>', approach
ing through the dirkness. the glimmer
, of a lighted lantern. A low ramble
soon gave evidence that the light was
attached to a vehicle of some kind and
soon a wagon drawn by two stout horses
hove into sight.
! "There’s a five-spot in it for you if
'you tow me into town,” hailed Umson.
The driver readily consented,
j For an hour or more they rode in the
approaching dawn.
Just before they reached the village,
Umson cabled to the man on the wagon
seat;
"Pretty eariy to be on the road, isn’t
; it?”
"Yes,” the driver returned; "but I
j have to be out early to get all over my
I route. ”
While he was handing ou; the five
dollars, Umson inquired:
"What is your business?”
And he nearly dropped in his tracks
when the man replied:
"I peddle gasoline in the village.”
