MAKE FARMER TRADE WELCOME.
Forty merchant of Haker City, Or.,
have agreed to give $2.50 per month
each for tho next two year, for the
maintenance of a rent room for farm
er. Here I a movement well worth
emulating by merchant of all cltle
and town where farmer' trade 1
particularly Bought after. It keem a
pity to Ktop at thl point, however.
Why not build around thl Idea until
the merchant could get all poHKlblo
benefit out of their InveNtnient?
If a rent room I to be maintained,
why not organize your club along
broad llni'H, ao It can do many thing
benlilea maintain a rest room? Let
It take care of all advertising which J
can bo done for the benefit of all.
A ati InHtance, the expenditure of
$100 per month for a refit room would
be a much better Invoatment If anoth
er $10 per month was added for at
leant the flrnt year, to advortlne the
rest room and the many other attrac
tion your city ha to offer for the
entertainment of vlaltora. '
A neat little folder containing half
tone of the rest room and a full de
Ncrlptlon of all the conveniences sup
plied, xhould bo put In the band of
every farmer, no he could thoroughly
underHtand what you are doing for
him, and this work could all be taken I
care of by the custodian of the room.
Thla Is a gMl way to fight mall-order
houses, a they cannot maintain such
conveniences In your city, and where
you have an advantage It always pays
to take 1L
A farmers' rest room should be a
part of the suit of club rooms of each
business men's club and It will be
greatly appreciated.
Women who have made a long drive
In the country like to have a place
where they can brush up, pu Mielr
hat on straight, and leave their heavy
wraps, lap robes, etc.
This room should certainly have a
custodian who Is able to give any In
formation needed, and the secretary
of the club can fill this capacity with
out Interfering In any way wjth his
other duties, or, If he has enough
work to use a stenographer, a lady
can be employed and put In direct
charge of the women's part of the
rest room.
Merchants who know every nook
and comer of tho town can hardly
realize how lost country people feel
I when they go to town. They are en
tirely out of their element, and most
of them are like fish out of water.
They have no place to sit down and
rest and no place to meet each other,
no place to take care of the demands
of nature, They wear themselves out
I carrying their, wraps and purchases
around and as a result are In a great
j hurry to .get out of town again,
j Make It easy for them to rest, and
make them feel at home, and they
will stay longer , spend more money
and come oftener.
j The rest room, If properly managed,
i will take all tho dread out of a trip
to town, and once your country people
i cense dreading a trip to town they
:vlll come oftener, and as they become
I more and more In touch with city
Ways, their wants will spread out over
a wider range of goods, and they will
become better customers.
