Keep Printing ai Home
During the pant week or two then
have been numerous representatives o
outside printing concern* in our town
Moat of theme representatives we ar<
pleased to say have solicited orders fci
only such work ss was impossible fo<
t ie lo-al printing plants to turn out
s ieh as loose leaf records, blank book
Hod special ruling jobs, which of cours*
i iey are in a better position to handlf
than the local printers Some of them,
however, possibly those whose ordfi
b toks were not filled with the abovf
mentioned kinds, have sought to ex
tract orders for letter beads, envelopes,
legal blanks and other forms, whicl
right fully belong to the local printers
a>id it has come to our knowledge that
in a few instances the local bushiest
men have "fallen" and given order*
fon this work to our out-of-town, and
possibly out-of-tlie-state, competitors
We do not censure the representative*
of these foreign concerns for they are
out for any and all kinds of business-
they can get, but it does look as if the
local business men who have patronized
them In this way have not given the
matter proper consideration. As a
matter of principle every job of print-
ing that can be done at home should be
kept here, if in the cost there is a dif
ference of a few cents or even dollars.
But in nearly every case the local
printer's price will be found to com
pare very favorably with that of the
"Roe & Sawbuck" concern and the
quality of work in most cases, better.
The local printer has his business and
investment here, publishes a newspaper
and through its columns boosts the in
t"rests of the local business man many
tinifts the amount he might save on his
out of town printing bill.
Another thing. Did you ever stop t<
consider how much more of an incen
tive it would be to the publishers of th<
newspapers to know that the local bus
iness men are backing them, withtheii
business support, instead of sending
their orders away? Let's keep thit
business at home, folks, a* well as all
other business that can be done here,
which will make conditions better all
around.

BUSINESS, from ditch digging to banking, needs
building as a stimulus at this time, building investments,
if made with reasonable prudence, are enhanced in
value with the increase of population.
If you need a home or a building do not hesitate a
day longer in going to work on it.
PRICES will not be lower until production is in-
creased; costs will not go down until quantity production
permits us to avail ourselves of the economy of the
maximum efficiency of labor and machinery.
To increase labor efficiency, to increase production,
to lower prices—
