Then, if the local public will remem
ber this fact when they enter the
store of Bannon and Company they
will readily see' one of the reasons
why we urge "Buy at Home." Here

Holding a most prominent place
among the "Home Industries" of
Oregon City is the firm of Farr
. Bros., whose place is located at 903
Seventh Street. This firm conducts
a business which is of great impor
tance to the business activity of our
city. Besides operating a Modem
Market, they buy live stock and all
kinds of farm produce, for which
they pay the highest cash market
prices, thus putting many thousands
' of dollars in circulation each month,
which finds its way, or should be
spent with the local business houses.

"Home Industry" and their modern
establishment and piogressive meth
ods merit the support and co-operation
of the citizens of Oregon City and
this vicinity.

HUNTLEY BROS.
It Is not every town the size of
Oregon City that can boast of a
store such as, Huntley Bros. Com
pany, This should create a feeling
of local pride among the citizens,
which, together with the fact that
they compete in prices with any like
establishment in the country offers
the best reason for patronizing this
local business house. In drugs,
books, stationery, pictures, athletic
goods, paints, leather goods, talk
ing machines, kodaks and numerous
other lines this house carries a stock
which guarantees satisfaction, and

an establishment which is a credit to
Oregon City, and you can buy goods
as reasonable from him as in any
store in Portland or any mail order
house then why not support the
man who supports your city?

Loyalty to Home Industry is the
first step to a city's growth and pro
gress and as to the grocery trade
Oiegon City people can secure their
every need at the local stores at the
lowest market prices. If any one
should doubt this let them visit the
store of V. Harris, where they will
find a complete line of staple and
fancy groceries, which are sold at the
lowest market prices. There is no
occasion whatever to send away for
groceries. Let the local stores sup

merchants that help support you.

sanctions the motto of buying at
home.
DUNMIRE'S GROCERY STORE
A store that merits the patron

stands for progress and loyalty to

Streets. This Btore always carries
a select line of staple and fancy gro
ceries, which are sold at the lowest
market prices, while honest dealing

PRICE BROTHERS
When it comes to clothing, the
citizens of Oregon City and vicinity
certainly have no couse to purchase
clothing elsewhere, for rnce .Broth

ner beyond reproach. At this store
will be found a line of clothing and
gents' furnishings, which for style,
and quality are not surpassed, and the
prices are always right. This, to
gether with the fact that the house
stands behind every article sold,
should prove as an inducement to
patronize a "Home Store." Price

compete with prices with any cloth
ing store and remember it is a lo
cal enterprise.
THE C. C. STORE
It is only just and right that the
people of Oregon City should pat
ronize our local stores, for they can
sells at prices just as reasonable as i buy the same articles here, and at
anv house in any large city. Just
compare their prices and their line
of goods with any other establish
ment out of town and you will ar
rive at the conclusion that Huntley
Bros, is deserving of your patronage.
WILLIAM MCLARTY

HOGG BROTHERS
The "slogan" of today, is "Pat

stores that go to make up your city,
and a store in Oregon City that is
well deserving of local patronage is
the one conducted bv Hogg Broth
ers. This house deals in furniture,
carpets, bedding, wall paper, crock
ery, oils, paints and in fact every
thing required to furnish a home.
The prices quoted on all goods car
ried by this house are just as low,
and in many cases less than asked by
outside houses. The proprietors are
Oregon City boys, who live here and
spent their money here, the servic
es and treatment accorded is of the
highest standard and their stock
comprises gopds of the best quality.
These facts help to furnish a convinc
ing argument and point out the reas

ment can be proven by a visit to the
C. C. Store, where is carried a stock
of dry goods, shoes, dress goods, no
tions, etc. The store is located at
Tenth and Main Streets, where every
courtesy will be shown their patrons,
and where goods are sold at prices

"Square deal" and it is a local busi
ness that will appreciate your patronage.
D. M. KLEMSEN
Special mention should be made of
the grocery store of D. M. Klemsen.
on this page of "Home Industry,"

it is one of the new business houses of
Oregon City, and another is that a
select line of staple and fancy grocer
ies are carried, which merit the pat
ronnage of the local public. Mr.
Klomesen is a man who is honorable

public. He believes in patronizing
nome industry , and he has met with

OREGON CITY SHOE STORE
If you can buy shoes in Oregon
City, which for quality, style and
price will equal any bought in any
other town; if you can receive just
as courteous treatment and honest
dealing from your local shoe mer
chantthen why not patronize the
store at home. Just ask yourself
these questions. This can be done at
the Oregon City Shoe Store, located
at Seventh and Main .Streets, where
you will find a complete line of foot
wear, embracing tho most celebrated
makes and the leading styles. So
when you need a new pair of shoes.
just stop and think and ask yourself
why not buy at home!
The purpose of this article is to set forth the various convincing facts regarding the local busi
ness institutions o Oregon City, Its object is to briefly state the numerous reasons which justify
the patronizing of Home Industry." It is a message to air those who have the interest of their
city at heart, to sound thinking people who possess a spirit of local pride, as well as those anxious to
get the most and best value for their money.
There are many reasons why the business houses and institutions of Oregon City should receive
the support and co-operation of every man,. woman and child in this vicinity,' and by following out
these reasons, not only helps to build up and advance your city, but also aids in the progress of con
ditions, in which all are interested.
The first one of these reasons which we wish to impress upon your memory, is the fact that
the stores and business houses of Oregon City carry the same line of goods, the same articles in every
branch that is carried by stores in large cities, or by any mail order house here at our stores will
be found goods from every quarter of the civilized globe.
Second: our merchants sell their goods just as cheap, and in many cases cheaper than you
can buy them from out side stores, after taking into consideration the incidental expenses before
they are delivered at your door. t
Now just stop and reason with yourself; Does it not seem reasonable that a store paying
from five to ten times the rent that a sore in Oregon Ciy pays, where they are under a tremendous
expense, would have to realize a larger profit off their goods then who pays this profit? You- if
you send away for your goods. It is true, the public is presented with glowing descriptions and pic
tures of goods in catalogues and circulars, telling of the great advantage and the money saved by
sending away for your goods. That all looks very well on paper but did you ever stop to think
that it is hard to tell the quality of goods from a picture. Then, too, if you purchase an article from
your home store and it is not satisfactory the merchant stands ready to make it good and he
MAKES GOOD without any further trouble or delay.
The merchants and business men of Oregon City have always pursued that Conservative Course,
based upon moderate profits and square dealing. They stand ready to meet all competition if they
are given a chance. As a convincing argument to this statement let us suggest that you take any
article compare the qualiy, then the price with the same article sold by out-side houses and see if
the prices quoted by the local merchant are not of uniform rank. This is a fact and only needs to
be tried to be proven.
Following these two above reasons for patronizing "Home Industry," we here present another
of equal, or even of greater importance. This is the aiding in the growth and progress of your
city. By supporting local enterprises, means more business and that means a larger city, which in
time calls for more manufacturing industries, and more manufacturing establishments means that em
ployment is given to more people. Thus, you can see the result of patronizing your local business
houses.
If you are a merchant, a physician, a lawyer or a laboring man it is to your interest to help
support your local business houses- for what benefits one, will eventually benefit the other.
Patronize each other pull together and you will soon see the great results.
If you are a farmer, do your trading at your nearest town. It means an increase in popula
tion, wnicn in time gives you a greater demand lor your produce and an increase in prices. If
Oregon City is your nearest town then why not do your trading there? Give the merchant your
business, who pays taxes and helps to build good roads in the county.
Then, another thing is not local pride worthy of consideration; don't you want to see your
town grow and prosper? Every local citizen should possess a feeling of local pride in his town suf
ficient to justify the patronizing of "Home Industry." Supplement this with the fact that the
same goods can be bought in Oregon City at the same price as elsewhere, and there leaves no just
cause for going out of town or sending away for your needs.
The local business man pays to keep up the town. He employs local people in his store, and
is all in all a source of revenue to many homes.
If you are a poor man and mis-fortune comes to you, the local business man is always ready to
contribute to your help if a subscription is taken around for any just cause he always "Comes
Through." Would any store in the large city do that? Do you think you can get a dollar out of
the mail order houses for any local cause well, just try and see how politely they will turn you
down.
The writer could fill pages, giving just causes and reasons for supporting "Home Industry,"
but if the reader will only stop to consider what it means to support the town that supports him,
then we feel that the reasons here given will suffice. '
Oregon City today is a good town- it is above the average for its size, but it can be made a larg
era greater city and a more thriving municipality if only the proper encouragement is given to its
local business institutions. And this fact goes a long way in building up a city. It is this reason
that has helped Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland and Seattle to become the cities that they are
today. Then, why not make Oregon City a large and prosperous city? It can be done and all
will prosper by it if the citizens will pull together and stand as a unit for loyalty and support let
the slogan be onward and upward Patronize HOME INDUSTRY.

W. L. LITTLE
The confectionery store and vari
ety store of W. L. Little are entitled
to a space on this "Home Industry"
page. The various articles to be

lago of five hundred inhabitants. In
my home and in every other home in
the village and surrounding commun
ities, there can be found from two to
five catalogues from mail order
houses. The catalogs contain pic
tures and glowing descriptions of all

mouse-trap to a piano. The pictures
are fascinating to the would-be put-

We have tried the ordering busi

months and wasting considerable
