THE FARMER SUFFERS

The price of farm products are
would be fine If other commodities
were down in proportion.
But high wages still prevail In the
cities in all lines. This means that
the manufacturer and wholesaler
must continue to charge high prices
for his goods.
The country merchant in turn must
charge the farmer in proportion to
what he himself pays to the manu-
facturer or wholesaler.
Very simple and easily understood,
but anything but satisfactory to the
Gazette.
