WHAT THE GROWER GETS

Mrs. Mary Montford of Trenton
New Jersey, recently contributed the
following to the Peoples Forum" OF
the New York World.
We reproduce it in our columns be.
cause we know it will be read with in
terest:
81 have been very much amused at
the letters you have been running in
regard to the commission merchants.
The other night | went out to supper
with commission man, and when
some cold cabbage was brought OF
the table he told us what it cost
One case holding about sixty head
of cabbage was bought by him in
Philadelphia for $1.05. The freight
was 80 cents, the commission mer-
chant dealer kept 1914 cents for COM
mission, and the remainder, 1874
cents, was sent to the farmer In Flor
ida. The wood in the case was worth
more than 1914 cents. In other words,
the farmer had the large sum of 121s
cents for the crate, and gave his cab
bages to the commission merchant.
"This farmer will not be in favor of
the profit system, because it has him
skinned. Several farmers of this Sec
ton are looking for another system
in place of the profit system. Can you
blame them? Twenty-Five cents
freight was added to the above case
for freight from Philadelphia to Tren-
ton, and the cabbages sold in Trenton
| for cents each, netting So.
Last year when shad were running
well, one old fisherman sent 1000
packed in ice to a New York firm
which he notified by mail and tele
graph. Three weeks later he got
word that his shipment had spoiled
on the docks, and he got not cent
He lost his labor and the cost of icing
Three or four young fellows that were
helping him never forgot the expert
ence, and they are now in favor of q
system that will do away with the
profit system. Can you blame the
young fellows for being rebels against
the system? Some of you city chaps
Will wake up some day when the ap
piled energy of all the farmers thai
have beenx stung good and hard By
the presetn system is directed to Sc
curing a better one"

MORE ABOUT THE FADs OF
FASHION

Good DR.. Adam Clark, made famous
by his commentaries on the Bible,
says that the English beau of the 14th
century would present in the eyes of
the present century the most fantasia
cal appearance. The good doctor
says:
/ HE wore long, pointed shoes, fas-
tened to his knees by gold or silver
chains; hose of one color on one leg
| and of another color on the other;
short breaches, which did not reach
to the middle of his thighs; coat of
one-half white, the other half black
or blue; long beard; silk hood,
buttoned under his chin, embroidered
with grotesque figures of animals,
dancing men, etc., and sometimes or
namented with gold and precious
stones
That was the height of fashion, he
says, in the time of King Edward Ill,
and he says that it dated back to pa
triarchial days, and cites as proof Jo-
seph's coat of many colors.'
Women's costumes were equally as
fantastical, and did not escape the
criticism of the times.
| DR.. Clark quotes an extract from a
sermon on the Luxury of Dress" by
one of the preachers famous in his
day. The spelling which is given is
very much antiquated, but is the En-
glish in vogue at that time, which was
before the time of dictionaries:

England is becoming alarmed over
the increasing emigration from that
country of the very class of citizens
whom they least desire to spare. The
outflow of sturdy artisans and farm
hands has reached an annual average
of 26S,000. They go mainly to Cana
da, Australia and New Zealand, where
alluring inducements are held out.
The effect in England is inevitable.
Farmers and mechanics find it impos,
sible to get the help they need to
carry on their business, and skilled
labor is increasingly difficult to OBJ
tain.

slashed Petticoats.

At the sight of the word petticoat
one is apt to start in these days, and
say, What. are there any," There
are still few and the newest ones
are slashed. The slash is made at the
ankles on each side.
These are particularly popular in
Paris just now, but many have come
to US also. White embroidered ones
may be had with the fashion-required
slashes, and there are also some good
satin petticoats laced up the sides
with softer satin ribbon.
