BONNIE WALKER, Prop. ^ K K k V É H B K P90K mb maws W e bought Florsheim Shoes "I’m mighty glad to get back to Centerville,’' said The Rolling Dollar to. the 1900 Dollar, “That Scott Val ley ia no place for m e Poor crops there this year, so the merchants have lots of business. That is no joke either. Those people send all their money away when they have any, and when there ia no cadi for money or ders thsy still have to eat Where do they go? Why, to the .merchant they passed by when they had the cash. "Poor years ago there were twice as many stores in Scott Valley, but the mail order bug bit the people so the stores closed up. Everybody was busy saving money by buying from the catalog houses. “Now oops are poor and cash mighty scarce. So the folks are going to the few storekeepers left and asking for credit—and getting it of course. Yet the merchant has to borrow money from the bank to pay his bills because he is carrying such a load of credit, for a man who isn’t patronised when you have the cash can’t be expected to have much ready money when cash ia short. “The bank would not loan the moet'of them enough to live on for a year, or until the new crop came in, so the storekeeper is the only crutch to lean on. Where would tha^e people be if all the stores had closed up? “Over on Plains Creek conditions are different It ia a new country, and like Scott Valley the farmers de pend on one crop. But they realize that without the stores they would be gambling with little to gain and everything to lose. Pdblie sentiment is all against buying elsewhere. If the merchant has not in stock what ia wanted they expect him to get it for them. Consequently the merchants can carry the farmers un til they get their crop money, and nobody suffers phys ically or financially. Plains Creek people know they would be cutting their own throats by patronizing the mail order houses and forcing their stores out of busi ness. The storekeeper is really the banker of the com munity, but he is willing to be as long as he gets a fair ‘A catalog house has only two ways of selling, ’Cash with Order’ and ‘Collect on Delivery.’ Where the fanner has to wait a year for his money how can he meet those conditions if that is the only way he can get what he needs? “The storekeeper in hfltee districts has about the worst job on earth. If his people have' cash he doesn’t get it. If they are abort of cash he has to borrow money and pay interest so that he can give those peo ple what they must have until they can get some cash again. And then he won’t see them in his store again until the crop fails another year. "I wish one of those Scott Valley people would gsk a mail order house for a year’s credit The clerk who opened the letter would fall dead.1 Copyrighted 1914.
