HKJHKST PmCES ALWAYS PAID FOR PRODUCE JAMES PATTISON & Co. Our Motto â€" "Smau. Pkokitt and Qiick Rktibns ''- The following is from a Vernon, B, paper. It is worth while to slop and think KCiiously what this sending of rpouey to mail order concerns means locally. Il SW j me.ins poorer schools, poorer roads, hiijh- |er taxes, unomployiiient. To buy cheap- 'er things cheaply never did and never will mean prosperity. I "There is involved in this thing of I sending money to large cities for goods I which can be purchased from the home I merchant, the quosi ion of local prosper- jity. It is a poor pulicy to tear down the ' busii;ess stiibility of the home town in I order to swell the prosperity of the laree ;«:ty. I "In the long run there can be no gain to anybody patronizing foreign business concerns at the expense of local ccncernii. If local merchants cannot get sutticient I business to pay the expense of operation, ' it nieatiri that smalK r stock.« will be cairied and the range of selection will bo re- ' stricted. It means th\t fewer clerks will be enrployed ; it means that fewer houses will be liuilt or rented ; it means that the growth of the local town or city , will be retarded. This means that in the long run that the amount of ta.te.s ' which the rural districts will h,tv« to pay I will be increased or tLat the public high- j way and other conveniences which make I fur bjtter thiols will be sacriticed. ! "This thing of sending out money in I large volume which should be spent at ' home always strikes back some way or other. The school teacher may send ' away for her itowns ; the boarding-house keei>er away for his needs. Then coine.s tbe cry that revenues from local taxation l-ecuuse of decreautd business are not adc'iuale to meet expeniea. Then sch')ol lieards are confronted with the neces.sity of cutting salaries ; the patrons of the boarding house become fewer ; the .sign 'for rent' is seen conspicuously posted on buildings. "The whole iiueation of local better- ment is involved in this foolish ni.-iil or- jder craze. If a cuniniunity is foolish enough to s])end it.s money abroad which should be si>ent at home, then that comniuniiy must satisfy itself with poor- er schools, churches, roads, theatres, nieui-lookinv! towns, everybody in debt, mortgage! forclosed and general business deprursion. "If tbe people would cut out the mail ordt^r nonsonce for six months, there would be a local prosperity which would surprise everyb<Kly. When all the people learn that their own community is most worthy of consider.ttion, when they learn the folly of bui Iding up gret>t cities at the expense of their own local towns, '.hen they can he called ra'ional, and nut till then." 4 SWP means Sherwin-Williams Paint (Prepared).

Its Curious Race Course With Go ae You Please Rules, Horse racing Is u favorite sport the world over, but It Is doubtful whether any nation can boast o( such a curious race course or claim more remarkable Ideas of tbe sport lUnu tbe Mnltesc. Once a year the rond skirting Sllema harbor Is reserved as a race course, and (he people turn out In thousands. There Is no regulation of the course. The crowd simply clears out of tbo way as tbe horses come along. Tbe jockeys ride without bridles or saddles, and each carries n whip In either handâ€" one for bis own mount, tbe other to keep back any horse which may try to overtake lilni. We saw one of the spectators deliberately trip a borae up by putting his leg out, nt grave risk to himself. These things, however Incredible as they seem to sportsmen In this coun- try, are taken as quite a lunttcr oC course, and consequently hardly n year goes by without a fatality of some kind. All things considered. It Is not likely that the "go as you please" rules or this Maltese derby are likely to com- mend themselves to other turf anttiort- ties.â€" Wide World Magazine.

Owing to the small margin allowed for expenses by \\\i C P. It. on excursion tickets it waa also unanimously decided not to have the usual annual excursion.
