Farmers Market on
 a Businesslike Basis

 1f1HERE is a farmers meat mar
 ll ket in Huntsville under direc- tion of the extension department and it is a success, both for the farmer and the consumer. There is a reason for it's success. Teh consumer gets his meat at reduced price. Farm CTS who expect to sell their stuff direct to the consumer at the same price as those who are at greater expense of handling it sand who sell after several other profits have been made, are not going to do thriv- ing business.
 The Huntsville market handles the meat on contract, the farmer prepar- ing it for market. The farmer has averaged two cents a pound more for his cattle and three to four cents more for hogs. On the other hand. the consumer has paid five cents pound less for pork and ten cents pound less for steak.
 Abortive attempts have been made at doing business direct with the farmer because he has demanded the full market price charged after cost of handling by middle men has been added. In addition he has not been regular in his offerings and has not delivered goods as city merchants do. He is not entitled to the same price as those who do business at greater cost and give better and more regular service to the consumer. When the farmer becomes a merchant he must face conditions of merchandising as merchants do and not exact more for less service.
 The Huntsville farmers market seems to aim at success through ra- tional business methods.
