grocer begins begins selling. The grocer, who buys five ito ten bushels at a time pays sl .50 for the peach es and sells them at 25 cent ad- vance through his retail storre. mak- ing what is a normal profit, consid- ering the risk he takes in handling perishable fruit, his cost of delivery and doing business. Thus out of a car of 400 bushels 325 sllable bushels have been procured, which bring $4S7. 90 from which is deducted the freight and commission Of $320, leav- ing s16750.. Divide this by 400, the number of bushels in the oriPinal car, and deduct the cost Of loading and packing the car at the loading and packing the car at the loading shed, you have in the neighborhcod of 50 cents bushel for your fruit. No one has made q bio profit and the car has gone through the regular channels, although it is true the peaches sold to the consumer for S1 .75 bushel.

 The last time that We saw September that Was warmer than the pre- eding month was in 1911, but that was due to an unusually warm fall rather than to a cool sum- mer The averages then were 76 for September an,. - fer August. That was the warmest September since the BentouvilIe weather bureau was established. Tie coolest Sep tember was 1913 when the average was 69 as compared with an August average Of so degrees.
 The rainfall for September is giv- en as 3.59 inches, but .27 inches is credited to the 17th. a day that Pen tonville had terrific downpour and we had but the slightest shower in Rogers. So the report is too high in that line for the immediate vicinity of Rogers

WHY PEACH RETURNS

The following clipping from the Rogers Go-Operative Press is inter esting. in view of the fact that the writer, Editor McClelland, is g1v- ing "inside information" He was in Buffalo. N. Y, Boston, and other eastern markets this season hand ling peaches for the Ozark Associa- ton and writes knowingly:
 We see in many of the exchanges where notes were put in baskets Of peaches asking the buyer to state what he or she aid for that basket. Tn many instances prices of$1 .75 were paid while the grower received but 8 or 40 cents of the S1 D. The grower then charges mismanagement and misrepresentation while as mat ter of fact such need not be the case. We will take as basis a car of peaches is shipped from here to an eastern point containing 4eo bushels of peaches. The freight rate is TO cents per bushel, thus the freight alone is S2SO The fruit has been rained on and there is shrinkage of 75 bushels on account of overripe condition The commission man to whom the car is sent hanls the fruit from the car to this store works it over and sells it to the retailer in small lots. For this we say he re ceives a commission of $40; ten cents a bushel, which is a small enough margin of profit to work on. Thus $40 is added to the s2So freight charges making the cost before the
