TO Lower HIGH
COST OF LIVING
Object of Bill Before Wis
consin Legislature.
PLANS DIRECT MARKETING
state Commission to Assist In Getting
the Producer and Consumer Nearer
Together and Thus Cut Out the
Profits of the Mlddlemen.

Madison, Wis, Feb. S.-The first di-
rect movement to lower the high cost
of living that ever has come before
the Wisconsin legislature is contained
In bill introduced in the assembly
by Speaker Merlin Hull. II puts the
consumer in the cities in direct COM
munication with the farmer, country
aealer and merchant. Parcel post and
express would be the principal me-
iiums of transportation.
In eject, this bill would wipe out to
large degree the high profits that
now go to the middleman. Mr.. Hull
has statistics showing that farmers re-
ceive only 4e per cent of the retail
price of the food products that they
sell. The remaining 54 per cent is
contained in the dealers and retailers
profits and in transportation.
The object of the measure is to give
the farmers the benefit of a direct
system OF marketing whereby they
may receive higher price for their
commodities and at the same time
give the consumer much lower rate.
The bill provides that the industrial
commission shall make and publish q
list of persons who desire to buy farm
produce direct from farmers, cream
cries, cheese factories and country
dealers. The commission is authorized
to advertise that the state OF Wiscon-
ain Is prepared to furnish a means for
this direct marketing. City persons
could file applications with the COM
mission. furnishing references as to
honesty and ability to-pay and they
would be listed
These consumers would be grouped
In the lists SO that a farmer really
could determine the kind OF produce
desired. The farmer would deal di-
rect with the consumers and the serv-
Ices of the merchant would no longer
be required.

o lilies, pure and splendid! ~
o lilies, holy and white!
! greet with a Christians greeting
Your lessons OF love and light.
You bring to my mind a picture
OF One who was spotless too,
Who took for His world-read lesson
A sermon of faith from you.
o lilies, joyous and stately!
With never thought of pride,
What treasures of trust and sweetness
Come with you at Eastertide!
What zest for a holy living!
What hope in a Christians death!
What gentleness, charity, beauty,
You teach with each fragrant breath
Do you know that the dear Lord Jesus
Rose in His kingly might?
That the world is His royal capture,
And Heaven His throne of light?
Glad may ye be, and singing,
Like me, to the Christ above,
For blessings on those who give you,
AS tokens Of Easter love!
