MARKETS AND MARKETING
.c,nntry Life Conference, Pullman,
July /, 1910
by J. II. shinn


The subject of markets and mar
.,no Is claiming more attention to-
tban ever before in the history
ua nr country. l have endeavored
s,rdv the markets more from a
vi noint of view than from the
Uni of view of the general markets
.ha world. am presuming that
W. Sampson, in his discussion of the
..hioct has taken the general point
,;ow and / can therefore devote
n time to the discussion of the mar
~. from a local consideration.
Among the various duties Of a
,ounty agriculturist the study Of
morkets for the farmers of his dis
,riot Is of prime Importance. This
/, necessary in order that he may
simulate production along the lines
mbich will prove remuneratiye To the
farmers. If there is no ready sale
,or the products which the farmer is
rroducing or such products must be
sold at such figure that no profit is
rooIized by the producer, it is OBJ
vious that a stimulation of produc-
tion along these lines would be I'M
warranted. On the other hand, il
farmers are producing, or can be in
duced to produce, commodities for
which there is a ready sale, especial
" in the home market, there is
greater chances for profit. Especial
" is this true where the products az
present consumed by the local mar
ket are brought in from a great dis
lance and these same products can
be grown locally. For illustration
take the matter of pork production
In my study OF the markets Of Spo-
kane, l have found that there were
into the city from the Middle West
states. AS a matter Of fact, 4 greet
many Spokane farmers are produc-
ing more or less pork at a very
profitable figure. The greater per-
centage of the farmers in Spokane

the freight charges on the wheat. the

The dead man was the husband Of

fact that he was an engineer further
cuts down the chance that he might
