Production of Crops
The sale of bread in quantity lots
by bakers and retail merchants has
been forbidden by Charles Hebberd,
food administrator for Washington.
The ruling is effective at once and
applies to bread dealers whether
licensed or not.
1.-THE food administration for
Washington rules that the sale Of
bread in quantity lots-three loaves
for rs cents-is wasteful practice
and encourages over consumption
and the leaving of stale bread on
hand In families" say the instruc-
lions sent to bakers and retailers by
Mr.. Hebberd. "You are notified that
effective at once, quantity prices are
to be discontinued. In future you
will make loaf price only"
The distributors have been mott
fed that they may make the price
either or 9 cents each, but must not
make the price dependent upon the
number of loaves sold.

our apple potato and hay growers
show this. There must. however, be
4 good economic foundation. sufti-
Gent produce, a proper market. and
Tie proper cooperative spirit before
any farmers organization will sue
coed. Any organization founded on
enthusiasm, sentiment. or good in
tentions merely. will not live. So.
while the office Of farm markets is
prepared to assist farmers to organ
ize buying and selling associations,
it will do so only after thoroughly
going over the field to see if there is
an economic justification for organi-
cation. If there is not, farmers will
not be encouraged to organize. Or
ganization work is carried on with
the county agricultural agent when
ever possible.
The Office of farm markets will
also investigate complaints arising
out of the sale of farm products.
Usually the case is like this. A pro-
Queer ships carload of potatoes to
dealer who reports that the car ar
rived in bad order or perhaps frozen.
and offers the producer a much lower
price than he expected. The pro-
Queer has no way of knowing Width
err the car arrived in good condition
or not unless he accompanies the car,
or has some disinterested person look
after it on arrival. If he should
complain to the Office of farm mar
kets, usually the car has been sold
and there is no way of ascertaining
the condition of the shipment.
Arrangements have been made
with the state department of agricul-
ture whereby the horticultural in
spector will act as the disinterested
person at the point of arrival. The
producer on shipping a car will no.
tify the horticultural inspector at the
destination of the car, who will in
spect the car on arrival, and make
out certificate of inspection for
both producer and dealer stating the
quality and condition of the produce.
Should any question arise these GER
tificates will serve as basis for set
Element.
Further, the Office is endeavoring
to promulgate grades and standards
for Washington farm products. Much
of the dissatisfaction in the market
ing of perishable and semi-perish-
able products is due to the lack of
proper grades. Who would order a
car of potatoes, asking for No po-
tatoes, and be willing to pay for
them upon the shippers word that
they were No. I potatoes? How
would he know whether the shippers
idea of No. l potato was what he
considered to be first class potato?
On the other hand, when A sells TO-
900 bushels of No. Northern wheat
to B, knows what to expect, and
both men may complete the sale
without seeing the wheat because
wheat is bought and sold on the
basis of recognized grades and stan
dards. Buyers and sellers should be
able to talk in terms of quality as
they do in terms of quantity-bush-
ell. pound, and yard. Because Of this
! fact the Office considers the work of
Standardization one of the most i'm
/ portant projects 1t has undertaken.
! Fuller information may be had
concerning the above work by writ
ing to the Office of Farm Markets.

WORK OF MARKETING
BUREAU OUTLINED
ACTIVITIES OF NEW STATE DE.
PARTMENT EXPLAINED IN
OFFICIAL STATEMENT.
(FrOm the Office of Farm Markets,
Pullman.)

Producers, dealers and consumers
and that includes nearly every
body-are interested in the question
of marketing. Everyone is con-
cerned with the price Of foodstuffs,
and SO, indirectly, in methods of mar
keting. Marketing has become a
public function rather than private
one. Realizing this. the last legis-
lature created the Office Of farm mar
kets with power to investigate and
promote economical and efficient dis
tribution of farm products. The
Office is cooperating with the State
College, the state department of agri-
culture, and the United States bu-
rcau of markets, thereby unifying all
stcte and national marketing efforts
for the state of Washington.
An announcement setting forth
the projects of the Office has just
been issued, stating the services it is
performing, and is ready to perform
for the people of the state.
One of the projects of tho Office is
to furnish the people with informa
ton on marketing matters. Where
can ! find market for peas? Where
can l buy alfalfa in carload lots?
How shall I pack my products in
order to get the highest price?"
These are some of the questions
asked of the Office. Whenever the
information is not at hand, by writ
ing to the United States bureau Of
markets, other state marketing agen-
cies, or people in the trade, the Office
will attempt to get first hand infor-
nation or put the person making the
inquiry in touch with the proper
party.
to answer such questions or recon-
mend changes in present methods of
marketing until an investigation is
made. Before reform can be sug-
gcstcd in the marketing of any pro-
duct 1t is necessary to know what
agencies are concerned with bring
ing this product from the producer
to the consumer, what work each one
performs, and whether 1t is being
done in the most efficient way. Even
though this may have been worked
out for Wisconsin or Kansas, the
same conditions do not obtain for
Washington. A part Of the work of
the office of farm markets, therefore,
is to make such investigations so
that reforms may be recommended
based on sound ANALYSIS of conditions
involved.
Not only are methods of marketing
important, but the producer is In
terested in the prices and conditions
in various markets. The shipper of
potatoes wants to know every day
what Seattle pays, whether the mar
ket is glutted there, or whether it is
likely to be when his potatoes arrive.
He wants to compare the market of
Seattle with that of Portland, Spo-
kane, Omaha or Chicago before ship
ping. The United States bureau of
markets will furnish market infor-
nation free of charge, by mail, on the
principal agricultural products. The
office of farm markets will gladly help
anyone in getting the United States
market news service on the products
he has to market.
Very often the solution of the mar
keting problem lies through organ
ICED marketing. The experiences of
