The PARCEL Post.
H II a Success or Failure? Two Diverse
Opinions.

Is It a Success or Failure! Two D1SeIse
Opinions.
We print below editorials from two
leading newspapers on the parcel post,
both based on official reports from the
u. S. Department of Agriculture, but
opposite in their conclusions. So far as
the farmers of this section are concern
cerned we do not learn that they are
making much use of the parcel post.
Many have had for years private custom
ers in the cities to whom they have ship
ped by express or freight, and they prob
ably continue doing so.
PARCEL POST ELIMINATES THE MIDDLE
Portland Evening Express
Officials Of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture have been testing
out the parcel post as means OF mar
keting eggs and have found it highly sat,
isfactory. The department has shipped
466 lots, consisting of 9, l31 eggs, to vari-
GUS parts of the Nation and upon arrl-
val at destination only 327 eggs, or
three and one-half per cent of the total,
were broken, Ten dozen eggs can be
shipped in one contalner a distance OF
$50 miles at cost AT cents per dozen.
This includes the cost of transportation
and container.
Maine postal authorities advise that the
farmers and farmers wives of this State
are utilizing the parcel post extensively
in selling farm produce direct to the con-
sumers and excellent results have been
obtained.
Last winter when eggs were being
sold by retailers at from SO to IS cents
to the consumer the farmers were re-
ceivinp only 20 and rs cents per dozen
for their product, giving the middleman
from 80 to 40 cents on each dozen eggs
he handled. The parcel post system OF
marketing entirely eliminates the middle
mans profit and divides the profit OF the
middleman among producer and con-
sumner.
