selves the vast amount they are an
nually losing by not being prepared
to handle their products The apple
crop is being sold at SOC per bushel
this season, and | am sure if we had
a cold storage plant we could get
$50 per bushel next spring or be-
fore. With cold storage, all our
hogs, cattle and sheep could be
slaughtered and packed at home,
and sold to the consumer south and
east of us.
Now let us follow the hog and see
what a round he takes, and see the
unnecessary expense before he comes
to the consumer. The local buyer
goes out, buys the hog and ships
him to Kansas City. The railroad
gets the freight. The local buyer
gets his profit, The wholesale job
Der gets his profit. The railroad
gets the freight back The retail
man gets his profit, The consumer
pays the bill Now most of this
could be saved,
Now, we have only mentioned the
meat and apple crop, What we
want is Harrison industries built
