DISTRIBUTION THE REMEDY.

Marysville, Wash, March 5, 1913.
Editor The Ranch: -Complyin with
your request to all your readers to
express themselves about state dis
tribution of farm products, l wish to
say that it is the only solution to
bring the producer and consumer to-
gether with the least expense of
handling the products.
1t is in the interest of all but the
commission men. But to be the most
effective it should be made a national
and state business. Bureaus of crop
statistics and distribution of products
to prevent Cutting some markets
while others are unsupplied should be
established. But until that time, the
cities should undertake the business
of our present commission men.
What these take in profit is not all
the harm they do. AS the store
keepers in any city of any size can
not rely upon the local ranchers to

exercise a great deal of caution or
you will leave enough for seed this
summer There is no excuse for
caterpillars at all if you do as we sug-
gest. One of these innocent looking
rings is good for about ZOO of the
pests, the most detestable of the
crawling creatures. Let's start a
campaign and put an end to them
and never let them know what has
happened to them.
