The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1913-05-20

Our cities have sprawled out over
the surrounding country since trolley
cars developed, pushing back the
farms and market gardens 1t is
now easy for the city man to live far
from his Office and for the farmer to
go to town. But the trolleys have
made it harder for the farmer TO
bring his produce to town because
they have built up passenger traffic
and almost neglected freight. The
street-car fares for a city family of
five persons come to about seventy
dollars year. The same family's
bill for trolley transportation of food
probably would not come to twenty
five cents a year. As the income of
steam railroads from freight is more
than three times that from passeng-
ers this seems rather significant.
Professor King found that trolley
lines running into Philadelphia were
not only hauling little farm produce.
but that It was not possible TO handle
that economically. For even when a
load OF fruit and vegetables is picked
up outside the city there must be a
transfer before it can come in to the
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1913-05-20

Suppose this same grower lives on
trolley road running into a city like
Dayton, Ohio, which has advanced
trolley freight facilities. He may
live fifty miles from the market in
stead of twenty-five. He starts from
home at four in the morning, after
good nights rest, and hauls his load
to the nearest trolley station. Per-
haps he has a shipping platform on
his own farm beside the track, and
piles the stuff up the night before.
About five o'clock the car stops and
takes his shipment to market; little
later he boards passenger car bound
the same way, arriving ahead of his
stuff. After selling his shipment he
starts home on the trolley, arriving
by noon.
Trolley rates on such shipments run
between eight and fourteen cents
hundred pounds, according to distance
and classification. The farmer can
send in a ton of produce for about two
dollars, and his trolley fare for the
round trip will come to another dol
lar at communication rate. As he need
not miss meal at home, and spends
only three mornings each week going
to market, the cost does not exceed
four dollars, including time His team
works six days a week on the farm;
he works four and half there.

THE TROLLEY ROAD TO MARKET is
THE FARMERS GREATEST Opportunity

Every year each person in this
country pays a bill for hauling stuff
by rail and boat. 1t never comes in
the shape of bill, of course. But
there are countless direct and indir-
ect charges to be met nevertheless,
and they make up a good share of the
living cost.
First, comes railroad freight, about
twenty-five dollars yearly per capita.
Then there is steamship freight, about
two dollars. Then express shipments,
about a dollar and half. Finally
there is very tiny item of only eight
or ten cents person year, which
stands for all the freight and express
carried over our trolley roads. But it
is an item that must grow in future.
Last summer the city authorities of
Philadelphia set a college professor
looking into the local market situa-
ton. When he made his report, the
Investigator, Professor King an econ
omist in the University of Pennsyl-
vania, attached great Importance to
the fact that the trolley roads were
bringing very little farm produce to
own.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1913-05-20

One of the large interurban trolley
systems running to Philadelphia
through a rich farming and truck
region is now developing freight bust
ness under the direction of Edward c.
Spring, a manager with experience as
a traffic man in Indiana and Ohio,
where trolley hauling of farm stuff
has reached high state of develop
ment. Mr.. Spring looks for great
progress during the next five years all
over the East. During the past win
ter he has been talking to farmers on
his lines, as well as to consumers in
the city, and this explanatory work is
backed up by direct service.
A farmer on this system, for exam
pie, has hundred bushels of pota-
toes that he wants to sell. Hereto
fore he has shipped them by railroad
or hauled them by wagon, taking his
chances of hitting good market, and
perhaps chance on the honesty or
ability of commission man. Or he
may have been compelled to dispose
F., of his potatoes soon after harvest,
| while prices were low and shipping
facilities poor, because he lacked stor-
age facilities.
The trolley system has an interest
not only in carrying those potatoes to
market, but in seeing that the grower
gets fair price for them, that he
sells through a trustworthy commits
sion man, and even in providing stor-
age that will enable the grower to
wait reasonable time to take adj
vantage of a favorable market.
When he is ready to sell the farmer
calls his local trolley agent by tele-
phone and tells him what he has for
shipment. The trolley agent sends
word to the Philadelphia terminal of
the system, where prices are secured
from commission men who have been
investigated for responsibility. When
a quotation is obtained it is sent back
to the farmer; if satisfactory he
brings his produce to the trolley line.
Thus instead of chance shipment, to
take the market as it happens to stand
when the produce arrives, the grower
knows what he is to get before it
leaves his hands, and makes no mis-
take in selecting dealer.
Furthermore the trolley company is
interested in having enough freight
to haul at all times so it can fill cars
partially loaded with daily shipments,
or can make up trainloads to be for
warded at night, when lines are. not
busy. To meet this condition ware
houses are provided at convenient
points along the line, and farmers
may haul non-perishable produce
there, to be taken when a carload is
ready, or to be held for favorable
prices.
The trolley people take no risks of
fire or other emergency, but their
warehouses are constructed to guard
against freezing, and the advantages
of having such freight make them
willing to give free storage for per-
iods of two or three weeks. The
grower can haul vegetables to the
trolley warehouse and have them
ready for quick shipment the day he
gets a satisfactory price. He is not
compelled to sell out if prices drop
suddenly while he is hauling.
Real Aid to the Farmer
This phase will undoubtedly be ex-
tended as trolley freight grows. AL
ready the interurban lines in the Mid
die West, with big farm traffic, have
provided storage for tobacco and

Philadelphia markets, on account of a
difference of track gauges between
suburban and city lines.
In the Middle West the trolley
roads have developed large traffic
in farm stuff, and their methods are
now being studied by traction men all
over the country.
What Is and What May Be
What the trolley road to market
means to the farmer may be shown
in a comparison of costs.
A market grower lives twenty-five
miles from a city market, to which he
hauls load of produce by team three
days every week. He leaves home
with his load at four or five o'clock in
the afternoon and reaches market
round midnight. Going to bed for
four hours, he is up early next morn
ing to sell his produce The start
back home will be made before noon.
and he arrives in time for supper.
With schedule like this he must
spend four days each week going to
market and only two days on his farm.
His horses are hardly fit for two full
days OF farm work. He ought to have
a bed and warm meals in town. The
total cost for team, board, and his
time for each trip to market runs
somewhere between six and eight dol
lars.

VITAL STATISTICS NEEDED

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 22.-The new
ly created children's bureau, i'll the dc
partment of commerce and labor, OF
which Miss Julia c. LathrOp is chief,
has Just issued its first monograph
plea for the complete registration Of all
births. The pamphlet points out that
not a single state in the Union has a

and that in 1910 the New England States,
Michigan and Pennsylvania were the
only states where laws were sufficiently
good and sufficiently well enforced to reg

of ten is poor registration.
The childrcn's bureau finds that this

hampering the work for the study and
prevention of infant mortality. This
country, according TO the best estimates
available, is now losing 100000 babies

that at least half Of these lives could be
