For years the farmers of the Camel
chan valley in British Columbia sold
eggs at low prices, taking their pay
in "trade" at that. Sometimes they
thought they we're not getting as much
as they ought, but being producers,
they did not expect much anyway.
If they thought much about it they
probably thought that the consumer
was not paying enough for the eggs
he ate, and they considered him rather
a miserly fellow.
They woke up one day to the fact
that the consumer was not such bad
fellow after all. During all those
years, they discovered, he had been
paying a smashing price for their
eggs and, having a mistaken idea that
the producers got the money, had been
thinking that they were rather grasp
ing lot of fellows themselves. Having
walked up and made these discoveries,
