Show PAGE SIX BEAR RIVER VALLEY LEADER, THURSDAY, AUGUST 21, 1830 -- TOWNS" DOCTOR SAYS sszKisna aooo mm aiivaoi oiaid asnjMOD x.Noa But it is ten to one that your stores are not as poor as lots of people think them to be. Your stores can supply you with most anything that you may want to purchase. In this day and age of standardized merchandising, with present distribution system, any merchant can take care of his wants, if he wants to. Of course, if your merchants really are so far behind the times, or lack gumption enough to supply your needs and likes that is different All of this is said with the full realization that there are still some "store keepers," running "supply depots," who have "clerks" instead of "sales people." But you are responsible if you have good stores or poor ones. If you continually buy from outside, you turn yourself into a walking, talking advertisement for a bum town, and who wants to live and have other people know that they live in a dead community ? Also, if you live in the town, especially in a small city, your social life brings you in contact with your fellow citizens, you assocate with them; and can you really feel just right in socially fraternalizing with them, when you know that you are not giving them a fair shake ? Put pourself in their position just what would you do? And as a tip to merchants let me add business goes where it is nvited and stays and comes back to the place where it is well treated ind served best. Maybe you have a perfect right to feel that your local merchants are behind times in the way they do things and the mechandise they carry, but are you doing anything to help change the situation ? "Not my lookout," you say Well, let's consider it in this way: If, in your estimation, your stores and merchants are poor, it is not going to make them any better for you to tell everybody about it, and when you are in need of something to buy it mail order, from a peddler, or go to some other town. On the other hand, if you will give your local merchants a break, and offer to buy from them you will be performing not only a service to your community, a good turn to your fellow citizen, but you will be doing yourself a favor. This isn't a matter of community boosting or civic loyalty or civic welfare it is purely a matter of good business might be good business, on part. If you live in a town you, or those who provide your livelihood, are in business or they at least earn a living in the community. If you own real estate, there is that much more reason why you should go out of your way to see to it that your community gets all the business possible, but you don't have to own two or three store buildings, a house and lot, or be a stockholder in a bank, in order that it pay you a profit. Therefore, it is not only your duty, but it is your business to see to it that the community gets all the business from yourself your and everyone else you can influence; also, it is your businss to see to it that your town is not looked down upon, as it surely will be, if its stores are behind the times.

Bur-ban- k, 5 NOW THE FUEL SPECIALIST Feed Pax Quality Feeds Rivalry between the old line coal dealer and the oil burner dealer is fast disappearing. Instead of fighting the inroads of modern automatic heating equipment the retail coal man is setting up oil tanks and going after his share of the increasing demand for fuel oil. A recent survey discovered 512 dealers in 320 American cities who sell both coal and oil. The coal dealer is learning that it In pays to be a "fuel specialist." these days of scientific heating he is called upon to supply the kind of fuel best adapted to specialized types of heating plants. If his customer burns coal he must know whether "egg," "furnace," "nut," or "buckwheat" will give the best results in that particular house. If the customer operates an automatic oil burner he must understand the characteristics of the three grades of fuel oil used in this type of heating plant. The recent survey by the Bureau of Mines and the U. S. Census Bureau shows that there are now 535,000 oil burners in American homes, using one and a quarter billion gallons of fuel oil a year. During the past six .years the number of domestic oil burners has increased at an average of 100 per cent each year. for Profit We now have a full line of Dairy and Poultry Feeds. Growing Mash.
