earmarks of q combination. They are
all the same price on handling
charges, all the same price on storage
charges, all raised the same time.
You ask local man what wheat is
worth and he will probably tell you
65 and 81 cents or whatever the price
may be. You go ask another man
what he is paying and he will answer
something like this: "Well, now, I
haven't had any price for a day or
two excepting that I had orders to
met competition"
But before the raise in handling
charges and before the independent
buyer was knocked out they were not
always ready to meet competition.
Prior to 1906 we had always bought
sacks for from to cents. But i'm
mediately after the San Francisco
earthquake sacks advanced to II
cents. We are told there was scar
city Of sacks; however you could get
all you wanted at the price, IL cents.
Four or five years ago the rancher
paid $3.50 to So per day for harvest
hands, 6h cents for sacks, so cents
per ton handling charges, and sold
his wheat at from so to IS cents per
bushel. How do we find It today?
The rancher pays from SO to 81 per
day for harvest hands, 10 to IL cents
for sacks, rs cents per ton handling
charges. And what does he get for
his wheat? The same old price 65
cents to 81 cents per bushel. Why is
this? How'long will It continue?
How long can the producer stand It?
Everything that he has to buy contin-
ually advances in price, while what
he has to sell remains the same old
price or lower. These are questions
the rancher should study. What
would like to see is that the rancher
gets little of the prosperity as well
as the trusts.
However, II you have any money
left after paying these exorbitant
charges, please remember I am still
selling barbedwire and nails.
