Of ii.
1t would be the easiest matter in
the world for the railroads to do this,
and with the kind permission OF the
high salaried funcuonaries OF the
railroads l wiz suggest that the
most practical and conclusive de-
monstration that they could make for
our benifit would be freight train
loaded with apples, melons. prunes,
peaches, spuds, ETC., and then hauled
10 market at actual cost OF trans
portation, plus a reasonable profit
on the investment in order that the
people may see just how unmerci-
fully they are robbed by not own
ing the railroads themselves.
We have all sorts of schemes and
devices to show producers how to
produce more, but when It comes to
iisposing of their produce they are
as helpless as babes in the woods.
The Grange was organized for the
farmers benefit, but it takes hold o.
the little end OF the farmers pro-
blem By concentrating Its efforts on
buying cheap for the farmer, when
as q matter OF fact the amount thus
saved In a year will just about pay
his lodge expenses. II g powerful
Organization OF this sort would take
hold OF the problem OF selling the
Sarmers produce the benefit would
be incslculable, but for some reason
not made plain this important mat
ter has received less attention than
the Insignificant matter Of buying
cheap. We hear much Of "over pro-
duction" but that is 8 word to lug
gle with to fool the producers. OY-
reproduction should signify that more
is produced of given article than
the people can consume, but as a mat
ter of fact there is always q place
somewhere in the country where
what is a surplus in one locality
could be consumed IL we could
only get II TO that particular
point Olcs since / have been here
I had my potatoes to rot onf mY
hands, and the very day l hauled
them out to dump them in sink
hole rad in q Kansas paper where
potatoes we're selling st s1.e0 a
bushei. That meant that you could
have had $500 per 100 pounds for
your spuds by paying sl.S0 to get
them to that market,
n is not so much the lack OF
markets that is worrying US as a
means OF. getting to the markets.
Then we might be in position to
entertain new methods OF production
and get some benefit from the et-
forts of the gentlemen who are
teaching us how to produce most.
But for one am not worrStns
about producing more OF my land
than now produce but | am greatly
concerned about what am going to
do with what l now produce. A
demonstration on this point Is in
order and as above suggested |
think the railroads can give that
demonstration IL they care to di-
vulge some OF their methods OF
ssinning the people.
