Not only has the farm-to-table plan
of selling farm products from farmer
to consumer proven to be failure
as was predicted, but Postmaster
General Burleson also acknowledges
that the parcel post has failed to
meet the expectation of the govern
ment. In letter to one of the Unit
ed States senators, the postmaster
general states that only about eight
parcels per route per day are carried
from the city to rural patrons and
about one piece per route per day
is taken from the rural district to
the city, thus showing that the pur-
pose of the department to sell mer-
chandise from farmer to consumer
has proven rank failure, while the
parcel post scheme has shown little
better progress.

General Trade Conditions.

Dun's Review says: Progress to-
ward better business has been un-
mistakable in some important
branches which recently experienced
hating, and more optimistic views of
the general situation are possible.
With the gain in actual transactions,
which in some lines has been con
spicuous, there has come an increase
in the working force at plants which
had been running less actively, or not
at all, and further price recoveries
are witnessed in certain quarters
where there has been rather sharp
yielding.
The change in conditions has in
some cases resulted from the grow
ing appreciation that for ordinary
requirements supplies of some mate.
rails and products are likely to be-
come even scarcer, with the needs of
the government the dominating fac.
tor in many directions. and in other
instances the improvement reflects
the enlargement of consumptive de
mands with the advancing season.

ton in anticipating future want.

ment; but many buyers display more
confidence and some operations

Government Fixes
Two Spud Grades

Two standard grades for potatoes
have been recommended by the
United States food administration
and the department of agriculture,
which, at this time, is of more than
ordinary interest in view of the cam
paign that is to be put on through
the retailers, whereby the consum-
ers are to be supplied with their
winters needs at uniform, stand
ard profit.
These two departments of the gov
eminent, working in cooperation, re.
port that results of field tests in
grading and packing and of expert
ments in marketing graded and un.
graded potatoes show that marketing
spuds by grades is not only desirable
and practical but economical as we'll
Further, it has been ruled by the
Federal reserve board that potatoes
properly graded and packed and
stored in a weatherproof and respon
sible warehouse, as evidenced by its
receipt, would undoubtedly constitute
a readily marketable, non-pedishable
staple"
The present prospect of very
large crop of potatoes, the food sup
ply situation, the overtaxed transpor
tation facilities, and the ruling thai
federal reserve banks may make
loans against potatoes properly stored
in approved warehouses emphasize
says the department the importance
of adopting uniform grades.
The No. grade shall consist o.
sound potatoes of similar varieta

Sure! High Heels
Cause Corns But
Who Cares Now

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once week invited an awful
death from lockpaw or blood poison
are now told by Cincinnati authori-
ty to use drug called freezone, which
the moment few drops are applied
to any corn or callus the soreness Is
relieved and soon the entire corn or
callus, root and all, lifts OF with the
fingers.
Freezone dries the moment it is ap
piled, and simply shrivels the corn OF
callus without inflaming or even irri
tating the surrounding tissue or skin
A small bottle of freezone will cost
very little at any of the drug stores
but will positively rid ones feet Of
every hard or soft corn or hardened
callus. If your druggist hasn't any
freezone he can get it at any whole
sale drug house for you.

Railroad Earnings Lower.

A slight falling off in the railroad
earnings for August is indicated by
preliminary reports from 1873 of the
chief railroads of the country to the
interstate commerce commission.
Thirty-three roads are yet to be
heard from.
Net revenues for August were $94,-
713,175, as compared with $96,316,247
for August, 1916. Gross receipts, how
ever, increased approximately $32.-
100000, reaching total of 1922, 103,-
643. The difference in net revenues
was due wholly to increased operat-
ing expenses, which shows jump
from S163,s16,952 a year ago to S197,
390,4s3 last August.
Western roads showed decreased
revenues of approximately $2,o0o,000
eastern roads showed revenues of ap
proximately the same as last year
while southern roads increased theil
net revenues by $2,000.000.
