This would only add further troubles to the com- plications of the ment and they enough as it is. Secondly, and very seriously, the retailer in the small town would be forced into an unnatural ‘competi- tion with the mail order houses, who would depend upon the government to assume a lot of the expenses which they should assume themselves, Thirdly, the First, rural free Tucilities are a very heavy deficit delivery routes, utt adequate postoftice depart- are unsutisfactory ‘the farmer would really greatest loser by a parcels He would receive much less for his products on account of the changed conditions and the difficul- ty of finding a ready market, this would necessarily and surely be brought about by a parcels post, The advocates of the parcels post are endeavoring to create an impression in the minds of the farmer that he would buy his necessities at a very pufl and all much less price than he possibly can get from a local dealer. Now, even if this be true and open to very se- rious doubt and argument, he would find the market for his products tak- en away or would have to dispose of ||Il m at less money d consequent- the value of his farm would be p.n-.ul\ reduced on account of these changed conditions, The real danger is that the parcels post will bring about the same kind ot a system of centralization as now prevails in Europe and the follow- ing results would obtain: The town or village would cease to be the religious, educational and so- cial center as before. The people of country communities would flock to cities to add to the evils of an al ready congested population. Real es- tate in and about the deserted towns and villages would materially de- prreciate in value. And this would have its effect upon the outlying farm lands as had been found in sev- eral instances where a like condition came about from different reasons Should the small country stor disappear, the farmer would lose a convenient market for his small pro- duce, which may now be exchanged for merchandise at the nearby coun- try Furthermore, with the | withdrawal of the small country merchants and the decay towns, the farmer would ftind his market for larger products greatly restricted and he would be compelled to haul his grain and other crops = much greater 4lis|}mw than at th present time. The farmers in Europe live in i} lages. They go to and return from the land they farm every day. They do not live on their farms as we The stores in these villages are ver: small.

The small dealer simply has to content himself w the business he can pick up from .- boring men and others who are too peor or too ignorant to buy from home.
