How did the medical system kill a hardware store?

According to the estimated 2009 census the population is 9315, a 2.4% decline from 2000.
As mentioned the nearest big box stores are a little over 30 miles away. South of there in Mountain Home Arkansas is where Home Depot, Lowes, WalMart, the only book store, and a few other well known chain stores.

West Plains, MO is east. There they have a Wal Mart, Hirsch's Farm store, Manard's, a chain drug store, Pennys.

Ava is north of there with a WalMart and a couple of building supply stores.

The nearest town is Gainesville, population 632. Gainesville has a couple of auto parts stores, a decent building supply store, bank, medical center. Our screwy for profit medical system killed a very good hardware store a couple of years ago.
