the Dark?
i
IGH PRICES paid by the consumer for vegetables, for meats, for
fruits, for garments of cotton or wool, are disproportionate to the
amounts received by the producer on the farm.
Between the time the farmer sells his produce and the time the city
consumer buys it from grocer, butcher or huckster, some one, somewhere,
adds a charge enormously above the original selling price.
The city consumer, knowing little of the intricate system by which
food journeys from farm to table, shrieks that the farmer is a profiteer,
and the farmer has been powerless to refute that accusation.
Meantime the middlemen the speculators, the wholesalers, the
jobbers, the retailers working in the dark, are permitted to continue the
disproportionate charges at the expense of both farmer and consumer.
IF ONLY the Nation's farmers could compel
efficient, economical marketing of their meat
animals, their grains, their vegetables, their fruits,
their wool, their cotton, consumers as well as pro
ducers would profit in more equitable prices.
This sort of marketing is one of the things for
which the American Farm Bureau Federation stands.
THE American Farm Bureau Federation is the
new national voice for agriculture, speaking not
only for its farm members, but also for everyone who
eats food and wears clothes. The day of cheap food
is past, and the public must realize that the only basis
for greater food production is a just profit to the
farmer.
The American Farm Bureau Federation stands for
the regulation of corporations dealing in foodstuffs,
for support of .operative enterprises, for economy
in public affairs, it opposes government ownership
of public utilities.
FOLKS everywhere, are asking: "What is the
American Farm Bureau Federation ? What does
it stand for? What does it propose to do? "
Those questions have been partly answered on this
page. They are fully discussed, fully answered, in a,
great series ofSarticles by Eugene Davenport, Dean
of the College of Agriculture of the University of
Illinois, beginning in the January 24th issue of The
Country Gentleman.
EVERY city consumer who hopes for lower prices
' should read this series of articles in The Country
Gentleman dated January 24, 5 Cents a Copy on
News-stands; $1 a Year by mail; (address The
Country Gentleman, Independence Square, Phila
delphia, Pennsylvania. )
It will point the way to that understanding between
town and country that will bring about just prices
for food and clothing will uncover6what happens
in the dark.
