York is pretty small. The important
question Is, Do the other persons en-
gagged In getting this product to the
consumer fare relatively better?.
What Retailers Get.
The retailer is credited with TAX
ing $1.87, or 37.4 per cent OF the
total retail price. But this is the re-
tailers gross margin, not his net
profit. Before realizing a profit. he
has to meet many expenses. These
include moving the box of apples
from, the jobber's warehouse to the
retail store. clerk hire, delivery costs,
credit expenses. including losses from
bad debts, shrinkage In quantity or
quality of the apples, cost of wrap
ping material, building costs such as
rent or taxes, insurance, depreciation,
etc, and other items. The chief func-
tiOn of the retailer is the dtstribu-
ton of boxed apples to consumers in
lots of less than one box. Where
he must make many sales to sell an
entire box; his expenses are OF course
Increased
In the same way the jobber's mar
gin is made up largely Of unavoidable 9
distribution costs. On the apples COW
cred in this study the jobber's margin
was 40 cents. or 9.s per cent Of the
total retail price. The wholesaler
margin was 80 cents, or 7.s per cent
Of the total retail price. The whole
saler, who buys in car lots and sells
to jobbers In less than car lots, has
to pay storage charges, unloading
and handling expenses, charges for
delivery to jobbers trucks, credit ex-
penses and losses due to shrinkage
of fruit in cold storage or in handling.
Cost of Transportation.
Transportation charges took 80
cents, or f6 per cent of the total
IS retail price. Shipping organiza-
tions' market margins averaged 27
cents, or 54 per cent of the total
retail price. This margin included
not only the expense incurred in as
sembling and shipping apples, but
also charges levied by outside
agencies for selling functions. Serv-
Ice costs, in short, were the main
cause Of price spreads at every stag
in the process Of distribution.

EVERYNAN'S
INVESTMENTS
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

BUYING OF COMMON STOCKS.
Spectator Is perhaps justified IN
buying stocks when he sees the
market price advancing day by, day.
He buys with the idea of benefttne
by the enhancement in market value
or his holdings. He is not an in
Vestor in the sense that he is buy.
ing for income; Now, however proper
that may be from the specuIative
standpoint-and we are not dis
cussing speculation now--the same
rule does not apply to Investment.
II you are tempted to take the risks
of stock ownership at a time like
this you should see to it that the
return. actual or prospective, is com
mensurate with this risk.
Stocks sell in the market place not
alone on the dividend being paid at
the time of the sale but on the pros-
pect of a higher rate in the future.
Very often the market price has ad-
vanced beyond what would be justi-
fed even IL the expected dividend
increase were already being dis
bursed. Then when the rate finally
is changed tho quotation declines.
In Wall Street parlance the good
news" has been discounted"
Much disappointment would be
avoided II investors "ouIQ race these
facts before they make their COM
mitments instead OF being carried
away by the excitement of a rapidly
rising stock markat.. 1t Is safer
from an investment standpoint-that
is, when one is going to buy to hold
to take stocks when business is de.
pressed and speculation is at a low
ebb. Even then you are taking
chances. Some depressions are Sc
sharp that a corporation is perma-
nently crippled. Still there are two
maxims useful as guides. One to be
borne In mind when prices are
mounting with no limit in sight is
that trees never grow to the sky
The other to emphasize when the
gloom Is the thickest is that "it
always stops raining"

Distributing COSTS
|. CUT FARMERS PAY
Agriculture Department Finds
MiddIemen Get Only Fair
Return for Work.

Few things arouse more bitterness
in the farmers mind than the spread
between the prices he gets for his
products and the prices paid for the
| same goods by the ultimate con-
sumer. This spread, in the case of
many products, has increased Ain the
last decade. Various explanations of
this fact have been offered. These
explanations, according to the De-
partment of Agriculture are mostly
incorrect because founded on unreli-
able data.
1t is often charged that the margin
between prices paid to farmers and
prices exacted from consumers large
~ represents an unfair profit taken
by distributing agencies Studies
made by the department, however.
have shown that net profits taken
by so-called middiemen are an in
significant part Of the total spread.
Such profits seldom amount to more
than per cent Of the consumers
price. and generally they are less
than per cent Of IL.
Distributing Service Costly.
1t is the cost of furnishing DIS
tributing service rather than She
profit taken by the distributors that
widens the spread between producers
and consumers prices. Distribution
costs. as matter of fact, generally
account for about 95 per cent of the
spread. study recently made into
the margins and costs Of the market
ing of apples grown in the State of
Washington affords a typical illus
tration of what makes the farmer
get SO much less for his products
than the consumer pays.
This study was based on data coll
lecteh from 13 fruit shipping associa-
tions in the State of Washington,
whose boxed apples were marketed in
the New York district. The average
retail price per box of extra fancy and
fancy grades was IS. Out OF this price
the growers portion, per packed box,
was only s1.1S. Moreover, this
amount was in no sense a net return
marketing expenses as the cost of
boxes. paper. nails, labor, overhead
charges, etc, amounting altogether to
about 40 cents q box.
Growers Profit Very Small.
There was consequently left to the
grower. after these expenses had been
paid, 7S cents a box. From this rs
cents he had to deduct all OF this ex-
penses of production, which include
such costs as pruning, spraying, trri-
eating, thinning, fertilizing. picking,
equipment maintenance charges, haul
ing to central packing houses, taxes
and interest on investment in or
chards and equipment. Returns to the
growers for apples of smaller size and
inferior grade were undoubtedly
smaller.
After every necessary charge is met.
therefore, the growers share of the
