Low Rate to Tidewater.

with proper facilities, which the
millers could easily provide for them
selves, flour can be lowed from Mime
apolis and Intervening points to New
Orleans at. a cost not exceeding 5 cents
a hundred pounds. The naughty
trunk line n1agnates would need to DO
considerable unbending in order to re-
cover their flour traffic after it once
started down the river. It would be
feasible for the. millers to control the
facilities which they establish on the
river, and as they would scarcely make
lower rates themselves on wheat than
flour, or might even arrange matters
SO they would not need to carry wheat
at all, the perennial trouble OF dis
elimination in :. rates 3 against flour
would have an end. Flour would get
to Europe on an equality with wheat
and the millers would enjoy the pleas
ure of getting on top and swinging
their heels against a burden OF dis.
elimination that has been on top OF
them for a long time" "-..... .-..z.. -

NOW NEGLECTED
TALK OF RIVER FLOUR ROUTE IS
REVIVED.
The Northwestern Miller Calls Atten-
ton to the Neglected Opportunity
for Water Route and the Timeli-
ness Of Seeing What Can Be Done
About 1t.

Why do the -four millers knuckle to
the railroad transportation baron
when the broad Mississippi flows right
by their doors? This old question is
being asked again now that the traffic
managers have shown strong discrimi-
nation against the finished wheat
product, making it almost necessary
for the millers to quit the business.
The millers have nothing to say
about the operation of railroads. They
must submit to whatever rate is es-
tablished. With the river they can
do as they please. The Mississippi is
willing servant to any master: and
knows nothing of ton miles and diff
ferentials and rates.
The river route has been used sue.
cessfully since before railroads We're
built for carrying logs and lumber to
market. Coal has been carried by the
| river route since the first mine was
dug and the Mississippi carries every
day on it's bosom tons of nliscellan-
eous freight at cheap rates.
| Yet it is pointed out with wonder
that the millers do not hire steamers,
build large barges and send their flour
to the gulf by the water route. Rail-
roads have the advantage for speed
but not for economy. A season of
river freighting Of flour might give
the rail transportation barons cause
Luz Sei1OuS thought.
Navigation Season Long.
River navigation is available from
the south up as far as Cairo all winter
I and sometimes. as far as st. Louis
The river is open to Minneapolis until
late in the fall and earlier in the
spring than the great lakes. The
original expense of the carriers :woule
be insignificant when the elimination
of worry, rate figuring and sparrine
I with executive officers is considered.
I The Northwestern Miller this weel
devotes much space to a discussion O.
the question. 1t says in part:
1.-THE Mississippi river is the great
est neglected opportunity in America
Probably two-thirds Of the surplu
wheat of the United States is grow
west of the river, and the millers VIII
