The Long continued depression of Trade which has so weighed upon the commercial is Likely to be productive of one beneficial result so far As Canada is concerned. The Long credits which wholesale firms have been accustomed to give to the retail houses in order to Foroe Trade had the natural consequence of leading the retailer to pursue a similar course towards his customers. Long credits have encouraged in the consumer extravagant and unnecessary purchases. Such a state of things might go on without serious inconvenience being Felt so Long As business was brisk and Money plentiful but in the Day of string ency the unnatural looseness with which Trade had been conducted could not fail to bring about a reaction. The customer then found it necessary to restrict his orders for two reasons first to Cavise he could no longer obtain the accustomed credit and secondly because he had already been induced to anticipate his actual requirements. Under these circumstances there need to no Surprise Folt that Trade became slug Gish As when the overstocked retailers found they could no longer dispose to readily of their goods it became necessary for them to curtail the extent of the orders they gave to their supplying firms. Mean while the storekeepers obligations would to maturing and it was found in Many cases impossible to get in sufficient Money to meet them. Hanco numerous failures. It appears that the evil of granting such Liberal terms of credit is now so fully appreciated that a combined movement has been made in Montreal with a View of conducting Trade Honc foreward on a More prudent basis a hitherto the plan has been to give six months credit. Now Twenty two wholesale dry goods firms have come to an agreement that hereafter payment upon Spring goods shall be at four months from the 1st of March and on fall goods at four months from the 1st of september. The hardware Trade of the same City has also made a similar step in the direction of shortening credit As the following circular signed by eight of the loading firms goes to i1 we the undersigned hardware Mer chants hereby give notice that on and after this the goods and articles hereafter enumerated will be sold by us on four months terms of credit or subject to 3 per cent discount for Cash payment Viz Cut nails Cordage window Glass paints and oils Putty dry leads ochre and the commercial papers All agree that four months is a sufficient length of credit for any retailer whose business is conducted upon a sound basis and that All his customers whose patronage is Worth retaining should be contented with a like amount. The truth is that far too Many Farmers in Canada have contracted the vicious habit of buying on credit when they might just As easily pay Cash for what they in quite. If there were a More general resort to ready Money payments by those have the Means to make them the Trade of the country would be carried on upon a much safer basis and individuals would gain in peace of mind and sense of personal Independence.
