Thai is sheer lack of enterprise. Hut nianv of them told me, nn the occas ion of my former visit, that they had for year been discouraged by indif ferent trentment by the business men nnd their nrttunirntiuiw of the towns of the vnlley; that, instead of gmng ltfOnl producers a full opportunity to iircatc and maiutaic a local market for thoir pnducts, they appeared over-ready to ie the importing job ber the 'edge' on everything he Iiun dlud.
