Farmers living in the vicinity of Wingham have been heard to complain that; there is not a sufiioient market for their produce in Wingham and that those who send their staff: to Toronto or taome other large centre obtain Roach better prices. They say that it is all right for those who produce some par- ticular article in large quentitie©, Quell as those who make a specialty of eggs, or dressed poultry, or butter to send their produce away, but that on the mixed farm they do not produce sufii eient of any one artiole to make tine possible, and they are thus compelled to dispose of there produce in Wing - ham, We have taken the trouble to sift tbe matter a little bit, and we find that the very farmers who complain are doing absolutely nothing to make conditions better, and, in fact, are doing consider- able to make them worse. Many of them do a lot of shopping by mail, send- ing the cash away to Toronto or Mont- real. They do not obtain any more for their money, quality being equal, and they do a lot of harm to themselves. It would be very much better if those who are so positive in their complaints would co-operate with the residents of Wingham in the endeavour to make this a better market. All that is neces- sary to accomplish this is to enable our merchants to increase their business. They would then increase their help and we would have a better and a busier town. This condition would attract out. aside capital and new enterprises and in- dustries would follow in the natural or- der of events. As "nothing sueoeeds like success" the chain should bo added to link by link. The first step, however, is for every farmer in this vicinity to realize that he has a personal and vital interest in the welfare of Wingham, just as much as any resident of the town itself, and the most reasonable way to show that interest is to confine his purchases as far as possible, to the merchants of Wingham. Some of the townspeople also have been guilty of this fault of shopping by mail, but there is evidenoe of an awak- ening on this subject in Wingham, and Most of the citizens are finding out by experience, if they have not previously found it out by the application of common sense, that it is neither pro- fitable nor wise to send their cash to snail order homiest It is not profitable, because it costs the oity stores more to do business than it costs our Wingham merchants, and the prices are not as reasonable me those charged by local dealers for an equal quality of goodo. If it is not profitable, it is certainly not wise to purchase away from home, and there is the added reason that doing so is injurious to the town and every in- dividual in the town. And so we say to the farmer, be fair, be reasonable, be wise. Help no to build up Wingham, and the benefit will be as mach yours as ours. Your sons and daughters would not have to go to the cities and be subjected to all sorts of temptations, but could obtain employ- ment at home, and both farmers and townspeople would have more opportun- ity to enjoy life. Wingham would be a better market town and a better commercial and industrial centro. Again we say, "Do your shopping in Wingham." FARM PROFITS May be largely increased by knowing the exact condition of the farmer's market, and by learning of the best method in farm practice. This is precisely the sort of information the Fanners' Weekly Sun gives in every issue. It has no equal as a Farmer's Business Paper. Good fanners rely on it. For price see our clubbing offer.
