tween the consumer and tie pro-
Queer of farm produce. The plan
as we understand it is that the
agents of the express company
in the city will accept orders for
country produce from housewives
and dealers, and place these
orders, either with individual
farmers who have registered
with the express company, or
with the secretary of any far
mers' association. The express
company will then receive from
farmer and deliver at the home of
the producer in the city any
produce which may be sent. The
company agents will also keep
the farmers advised of market
conditions and see that he gets
all the information which they
can collect, and which may be
helpful to him in supplying the
consumer.
This general plan has been
followed by some of the English
railroads for a number of years,
and there is no apparent reason
why it cannot be worked out
successfully by the express COM
panies in this country. The
parcel post has become a strong
competitor of the express COM
panies in the ordinary exchange
of packages between communities
and cities. But the parcel post
cannot do what the express COM
pany in Texas proposes to do,
namely, act as soliciting agent
for the farmer. With their
organization in the cities and
their equipment of wagons,
there is no reason why the ex-
press companies cannot grad
ually make a house.to-house cam
vass and build up for them
selves a large trade in the car
riage of eggs, butter, vegetables,
fruit, etc. Before the establish
ment of the parcel post, such
a proposition would have re-
ceived scant attention from the
express people. They were in
that arbitrary, dont-care-a-hong
attitude. But now that the parcel
post is making inroads on their
buiness, they become seekers
after BUSINESS. instead of mere
independent receivers of it.
If the parcel post shall have
done nothing more than convert
express company agents into
courteous business men it will
have been worth while. Wall

mer is himself really to blame
for many of the ills of which he
complains. We have known far
mers to blame merchants for not
buying eggs of them, preferring
to go to the cold storage house.
When we ask the merchants why
this is so, they say that they can
not depend on the farmers eggs,
but do know what they are get
ting from the storage company.
We have heard farmers blame
merchants for shipping in pota-
toes from Minnesota, when the
farmer would sell them to him
for less money. We ask the mer-
chant what he has to say about
this, and he says that the farm
er's potatoes are big and little,
while those from Minnesota are
graded, so that he knows just
what he is getting.
Now the interests of the farm
ers and bankers and railroads
and merchants, when you get to
the bottom of it, are all the same.
Together they clothe and feed
the community. No class of men
can permanently succeed unless
they are at bottom honest and
understand their business. 1t is
no use for the farmer to under
take to play any tricks on the
merchant, nor for the merchant
to try any tricks on the farmer;
for all attempts of this kind
must in the end fail.
Nor is 1t any use for them to
imagine that they have opposing
interests. In this as in every
thing else, when ''one member
suffers all the members suffer
with it," If farmers would CO.
operate for the purpose of mar
keting their products, would
standardize or grade them, so
that every merchant would know
just what he is getting, farmers
would be able to feed the towns
near which they live instead of
their being fed from sections
hundreds of miles away. If the
merchants would reorganize their
business in such a way as to de-
crease their waste, it would vast
ly help the farmers by giving
them a larger proportion of the
consumers dollar.
The merchants would help the
farmers a great deal if they
would pay cash and insist on
cash payments, and on being
paid for the service they render,
say in delivering goods. A but
cher in Chicago, when asked to
give the expense of distributing
meat, stated that this expense
was II per cent, while the total
expense of conducting his bust
ness was Fl per cent. This illus
trates the wates that is going on
under ordinary methods of mer-
chandising; and from this the
farmer suffers in having to take
a lower price for his products, so
as to enable the merchant to con-
tinue in his expensive methods. /
