GOOD|NG WOULD
BOYCOTT COAST
Chamber Jolts Opposi-
ton TO Rail Rate
Measure.

Be. Il resolved that the Gooding
Chamber Of Commerce does hereby
condemn the fight which the Pacific
coast jobbers are waging against the
passage OF what is known as the
Gooding Long and Short Haul bill.
the same being Senate Bill No. 1927.
and we do hereby call upon the mer-
chants Of Gocding and the State Of
Idaho to boycott such jobbers until
they have abandoned their fight
against the passage of this bill.
Above is the text OF a strong
resolution passed by the Gooding
Chamber OF Commerce at their
September meeting. held at the
Palmer hotel. Tuesday noon. A large
representation OF business and pro-
fessional men and other citizens were
in attendance. and the above action
was taken following a particularly
forceful and mastery presentation of
the crucial facts in the freight rate
situation as il affects the people of
Idaho and the intcrmountain country
by Senator +. X. Gooding of this city.
The bill above referred to. thanks
TO the efforts of our own senator.
has passed the senate of the United
States by a decisive vote and will be |
IN the house Of rcnresenfa- !
tives at the coming session. That
It will meet determined opposition in
The house is foregone conclusion, but
with the proper organization in favor
IF the bill. the senator's fight for a
square deal for the intermountain
country will yet be won, according to
he conviction of those who are best
informed in the matter.
That this singing of Idaho on
reight rates both going and coming
must stop il our state is to develop
Is resources, was the gist of the
enator's powerful talk. He said that
many of the high railroad officials
n the west have declared that as far
5 the west is concerned, the United
tates made tremendous mistake in
uilding the Panama canal and the
anal should b filled rp.
It's a crime, declared the senator

Pc ZACH CROP Is
BIC FARM FACTOR
Spread Between Pro.
Queer and Consumer
Is High.

Washington-Thc Department of
Agriculture has put out a story about
the costs and wastes in peach mark
citing. The total peach crop of the
state OF Georgia this year was esti-
mated at $4,000 cars. whereas only
1880 cars were finally marketed. 1t
develops in the story that il costs
SLIP to pack "a quarts OF peaches
in Georgia. to load them onto the
cars and to deliver them in New
York City. Last month these Geor-
gia peaches sold in New York at
from Sl75 to $3.50 for each "a quarts.
The little end of the Georgia produc-
ers share of the returns is shown by
the above to be from So cents to SIPS
On "a quart shipment there was
eventually received by the wholesaler
in New York, S2.75. to which must
be added in the price paid by the con-
sumner, the cost. profits. and waste Of
city distribution. amounting to SAYS.
In osher words. had the Georgia fruit
growers delivered their peaches free
OF cost in the city of New York, pre-
paying the freight and collecting moth
ing for themselves, the consumer in
the city of New York would have to
pay 60 per cent of the price he did
pay for his peaches. Thus, market
ing and waste represent 63 per cent
of the cost of the peaches and the
other 81 per cent is the legimatc end
received by the fruit grower and the
dealer This is complicated story
but it is worth figuring out on ac-
count OF its value as a practical les
son relating to the cost OF food.
Timely warning. The whole coun-
try has been hearing about peaches
rotting on the ground" The United
States Agricultural Department seeks
to make clear its own defense. 1t
says that early in the season it advised
the growers ito thing or remove por-
ton of the fruit from the trees" Some

result that they have good quantity
of standard grade, or choice, peaches.
There was comparatively no waste IN
this kind OF fruit. The Department
continues its explanation: Some or
chards in which the fruit was not thin
ned showed as high as fifty per cent
OF culls or small fruit, which exper-
fence has shown the consumer does
not want. in year OF abundant pro-
duciion." Thus it appears that the
great loss in the Georgia peach crop
was in culls. And most of these culls
could have been eliminated in the or
chards at the very outset had the
and the advice of the De-
partment of Agriculture been needed.
A story OF Quality. You don't need
to eat peaches or even grow them
to get the point Of this story. Moral
Quality Wins.

that Idaho. as close as il is to tide
water. should receive no benefit from
It. but should on the contrary be
charged the highest freight rates in
the entire country.
In short, the practice OF the rail-
roads, according to the senator on
both easibound and westbound freight
is to charge Idaho rates as high as
they charge the pacific coast cities.
And as il that were not enough
the railroads are now applying for
reductions on the coast rates that
will mean. if granted. that Idaho will
be charged from 2S to y percent
higher rate than is being charged the
coast

took action assuring substantial sup

that is expressly organized to lead
