The Department Of Agriculture has

prices at which they are WHOLESALERS

We do not know why the people OF
the District OF Columbia should pay

cuts and distributes the carcass, and
yet that is the figure.
Farmers, although they are admit
tedly getting good prices for their pro-
ducts at this time. receive very little
II any of the great increases In the
prices OF food products. We have
found during the course OF our inquiry
that the two.ycar-old steer on the
farm can he bought today just as
cheaply as II years ago.
j am gathering proof now which
will demonstrate that the food pro-
ducts OF the American farm are being
sold in foreign countries cheaper
than in the United States. This Is
not due. as some have said. TO the eX-
cess OF production over consumption
and tho necessity for getting rid of the
surplus abroad. II Is due to the local
combinations. 10 very low transporta-
ton rates within the United States
and to the eXaction of a smaller per-
centage OF profit by retail distributors
