Business Hurdi'ns.
I Visited a fr'.ontl in a nearby
town not long ago. I had not been
tq see him in over a year. 1. knew
nearly everybody in that town and
learned to like several of her lead
ing bu. iness men. I always asked
about the various RcciniUntan.r.-’s
when 1 failed to see them while
there. ,
I will call the town of my friend
Itopeville; but that Isa t what the
postoitice sign says. While talking
to my friend Bill (whose name is
Jack) I asked him how Mr. Brown,
the fertiliser dealer, was getting
along. He said "Why, huv't you
heard. He sold fertiliser oh credit
last yenr and he's in the asylum
now.
I knew 2 other fertilizer dealers
In Hopeville, and I thought I'd ask
about them. Bill (Jack) told me
that Mr. Piddle sold guano on credit
also last year, and he's In the poor
house now, Mr. Fiddle sold 278 tons
of 8-3-3 on credit; he's on the chain
gang —offense -whipping a cash (?)
customer.
That was sad new's ta me and a
couple of tears trickled down my
vest and lodged In the crease of my
britches. Being a fertilizer agent
myself, I asked Jack, whose name is
not bill, how it all happened. He
said—"Well, you know, all of these
men were great believers in peddling
out the milk of human kindness."
I replied—"That's so, but they
should not have put it into bngs.
Then Bill explained it all: "Mr
Brown sold his stuff to his friends
who promised to pay him when
they sold their cotton—they haven't
sold yet. Mr. Piddle was to be paid
when they got through hauling, but
they apparently have not. finished,
(Where they bought 200 bags, they
hauled only 199, so you see, they
ain't thru yeti
He stopped talking. I asked him
what happened to Mr. Fiddle, He
said—"Mr. Fiddle expected a set
tlement from his mllk-of-human
kindness friends “next week" and
"on the first” and by “May 10th.'
The fertilizer companies paid their
dealers nearly a dollar a ton for
handling and storing and selling
and delivering their goods—that is
-they allowed them 4 per cent from
the cauh price of the stuff when
they got it in the early spring.
Nobody blamed tire farmers oi
the guano agents. Ten-cent cotton
and 50-eent corn won't pay debts
The guano companies got their
money (mostly), but after the deal
ers got thru paying Interest and li
censes and handling expenses and
losses—they had no other cource ex
cept the asylum or poorhouse or
chaingang. Of course, they could
have shot themselves,1 like many oi
them did, but we ure certainly hav
