wAsTEFuL DISTRIBUTION.

The New York State department of food and marEet. figures out that the distributing products New York City is 65 per of the price paid by the That to say. the producer gets a rifle more than onethird of what the consumer pays for his pro duct
 "Wastenl and demoraizns" the department calls it.. and the department is right And there is the same of waste and demoraIzaton in every city in 4he United States The situation worst in the biggest ci ties. but the principle is the same in all
 It isn't that the "middlemen" are making their ever lasting fortunes the farmer Che city folk The ordinary commission or iobber wholesale or re- taller is just making decent living like other men other lines of work But the trouble s there are too many of these middlemen. The system distribution isn't properly organized Fruits vegetables poultry but ter eggs pass through too many hands before they reach the consumers kitchen, and there many little profits made on them. And then. in almost every branch of distribution there many men and buildings and beasts doing the work There arr many small dealers struggling living and mh tpyng overhead expenses The competition too great and too costly There too many employers and clerks only half occupied there many delivery multiplying and cris-crossng routes the system of service is elaborate Ali these things the con- sumer and the producer have to pay for.
 We have learned efficiency in production and econ omy in consumption, but distribution sun expensive and chaotic. When we get the thing properly worke .out not only will the farmer higher prices and thy consumer benefit by lower prices but a large part of the class engaged in merely distributing commodt ties win drift into the producing class, adding to the wealth of the society instead of deractng from it, and making thereby a surer and better livelihood

THE GERMAN PROPAGANDA.

A friendly word needs to be said to our German friends particularly those interested in the proposed ganization Of the National Cerman-Amercan League.
 This league is being formed frankly for united poll uca action. It aims weld citizens German origin and German sympathes into a solid unit It is an Of fort establish new political party of a sort that has never existed in this country-a party that does not spring of domestic life but whose inspiration is alien.
 This movement is full of peril the nation. and to the German-Americans themselves. While its leaders profess desire to "re-establish a genuine American neutrality" the of action they propose is full of menace to our neutrality
 If a BritishAmerican League were formed here. con sistng of Briush-Amercars profcssiug the patriotic purpose safeguarding American neutrality what Ger would take them at their word? Would not any eyel-headed German instantly point out that however fair and praseworhy their intentions the limitations of human would make it impossible for them 10 live up to their professions?
