parison Of the farmers return for
his labor and Iabor's reward for
transporting the poducts: On Aug.
A. 1914, Nebraska corn was sold at
80 cents busheI. The freight to
Chicago was IA cents a bushel, of
which labor received 5h cents or
40 per cent. On Nov. l, 1921. Me-
braska corn sold at 171k cents a
bushel. Freight TO Chicago was
1885 cents. of which 141k cents or
so per cent went to labor. That is,
labor received almost as much for
one days work as the farmer re-
ceived for his years work.
Mr.. Buttsrworth concludes with
review of the cost of raw materials
used in farm implements and the
effect of this on the final price
which the farmer pays for the i'm
plements. Implement prices, he
says, have been kept down as much
as possible, being now only 40 per
cent higher than before the war,
in contrast with raw material
prices, which Have increased rs
per cent in the same length of
time.

lROSpER.ITY IS
POSSIBLE WITH
LOWER FREIGHT
william Butterworth In haeazine
lrdcIe, Claims Railroads Hold
Key TO Prosperity.

william Butterworth, president
/, peere & Co. and an officer OF the
United States ChambsE OF Com
nerce. is author of an article en-
,itIed "Railroad Labor Pay-and
Mine" which appears in the Janu-
airy issue of the Nations Business.
nublished by the United States
chamber OF Commerce.
The key to prosperity, in the
oninion OF Mr.. Butterworth, is the
lowering of freight rates. He
f1oints out the reasons by present.
|,n0 examples as to the manner in
which the increase in freight rates
| mas affected the prices of farm i'm
Elements. For instance, he shows
| that certain Deere & Co. imple-
ments, gang pillow, corn binder,
rain harvester and wagon, which
n 1913 cost a farmer living near
SAL, or. in terms OF his
avn product, 716 bushels .lsf corn,
in 1921 cost the same man 500, or
s027 bushels of corn. In 1920, the
prices Of these implements was
1874. or $50 bushels of corn. A
farmer living in the vicinity of
oklahoma City had to pay for these
|implements in 1913. $4S4.50. or 931
lhnshels: in 1920, 1894, or 702 bush
~. and in 1921, 1851, or 4,191 bush
els
Mr.. Butterworth attributes this
condition to the increase in freight
rates stating that in the last year
the cost of moving farm products
BY rail has increased IS per cent,
while during the last six years the
k-rice of corn has in many locali-
.Aes dropped as much as from n
Ecents to 17lz cents a bushel. Mr..
Butterworth attributes this to the
high wages paid railroad workers
In contrast with those paid to work
ers Of similar skill in other indus
tries, and presents many figures on
be subject.
y At present. he says, one-half of
the price OF a carload of corn goes
for freight. In 1918, the freight on
/ carload from Springfield to Chi
cago was 1872; in 1920, $50. and in
1921, 1857. To send the same
amount of corn from Oklahoma City
would have cost in these three
years. s130.44, $1S2.31 and $1,112.06.
RESPECTIVELY
" Mr. Butterworth goes on to say
that the farmer pays not only the
freight on his produce on its way
to market and on the implemen, S
which he purchases, but also on
the raw materials from forest and
I,mine.
q He also makes the following COM
