Paved Streets and Mud Roads
YOU,
Mr. Farmer of this community!
* / J*" f., *9*8 .
Do you know that you are paving the
streets of the city and neglecting the road
to your own farm?
Do you know that the mail-order mag-
nate is riding in comfort over smooth
thoroughfares while your wagon way he
mired to the hubs in mud?
Keep your dollars at home, spend them
with the local merchants, and they in turn
will help bear the taxation burden of
building good roads in this community.
The mail-order man assists in bearing
none of your burdens, he only takes your
dollars, and you and others like you are
contributing hundreds of millions of dol-
lars annually to feed his greed.
Every dollar spent at home means added
wealth and additional improvements in
this community.
Why not put your own wagon on a
well-paved road?
Think it over.
