cludes the cost Of transportation and

thOrities advise that the farmers and
farmers wives of this state are util-
izing the parcels post extensively in
selling farm produce direct to the
consumers and excellent results have
been obtained. Last winter when
eggs were being sold by retailers at
from so to so cents to the consumer
the farmers were only receiving 20
and rs cents per dozen for their
product, giving the middleman from
80 to 30 cents on each dozen eggs
he handled. The parcel post sys-
tenn of marketing entirely eliminates
the middleman's profit and divides
the profit Of the middleman among
producer and consumer.
