their hike from New York to

due for big parade on March 3. suf-

clothing.
Most of the mixers had taken the tip
of General ROsalie Jones and Colonel
Ida Craft in regard to the type of cos

Corduroy shirts and Norfolk jackets,
therefore We're in the ascendancy, while
large shOes-"shOes easy TO the feet
were everywhere conspicuous.
The famous canton flannel cloak, de-
signed by the doughty general as G
result of her Albany tramp, was also
included in most of the marching equip
ments, while the slaves that were found
OF SO much assistance on that historic
march went far toward lending a tone
of determination to the army. There
was no decree as to The head gear best
calculated TO Withstand the rain and
snow and sunshine OF the march, and
in consequence, decorations of every de-
scription were in evidence.
These bObbed above the knapsacks
Of the pilgrims wherein was. stored
Plethora of suffrage literature and vase
line, the first to feed the aesthetic
temperament of farmers wives along
the way, and the second to mend the
marchers. On the whole the band be-
fore its start from New York made a
very business like and military show
ing.
The suit cases belonging to the
marchers, with their changes of linen,
more vaseline and absorbent cotton,
preceded them under the convoy of the
advance agent Of the army Two au-
tOmObiles were required for this pur-
pose. to say nothing of the little yellow

w ton bill. as it passed the
house of representatives this year, con-
tains a provision apprOpriating $4,000
for the establishment of a division Of
markets in the department Of agricul-
ture- This little item may prove to be
the forerunner of a great national eff
fort to reduce the cost Of living in
the United States 1t is often asserted
that the high cost of living springs, in
large measure, from the tolls levied by
the middleInen, through whose hands
pass the commodities from the farm
and the factory where they are pro-
duced, on their way to the consumer
With reference to the products OF the
farm, 1t is found, wherever an inVeSt1-
CATION is made, that if the producer
gets the price the consumer pays he IS
well satisfied Secretary Wilson esti-
mates that the products of the farm are
worth $4,000, 100000 to the farmer. The
consumer. he thinks, pays about S13,-
I 0G0.OO0,OOO for them In other words,
distribution represents $1,OOO,OOO,OOO
and production $4,000. 600, 900. The man
who furnishes the land, buys the fertil-
iZer. plants, tends and harVestS the crop
gets Sc for his work and for his CAPT
! tai invested, where the man who mar
kets. it gets. seven.
There are those who feel that the price
the farmer gets is enough. What they
would like to see is a consumers price
that would add only reasonable per
centage to the farmers price There
are others who think that If the mid
dleman could be eliminated and the
intermediary Of exchange, whereby the
consumer gives his money and the
farmer his products. could be two Co
operative Organiza lions, one to buy and
one to sell-One representing the con-
sumner and The other the prOducer-the
cost of living might be materially re-
duced.
Profit in Eggs.
A picture of what reduction might be
made is to be gathered from a state
ment with refernece to market cOnd1-
lions in New York. Farmers sold ST.
OO0,O0O worth Of eggs in that city last
year When they reached the consumer
farmers received S1,S25,OO for the cab
bage they sold in Gotham; the consumer
bought il for S9.125 go. The price Of
milk was magnified until the $4,000,
