Government Has Bargain Day Tor Purchasers.- The Kovornmont's offer to sell tho surplus army food stock to tho public by parcel post is probably as Rood o solution of two pressing problems as rould be found. It ount to result in disposing of that troublesome surplus with little more delay, nnd it oii(;ht la hnvo nn Immediate effect in reliev ing the food situation nnd lowering retail prices of tho commonest com modilies. Atlempts mnde to dispose of the nc cumulated stocks by carload snles to municipalities nnd big dealers do not nocm to hnvo succeeded. Private con cerns, for some renson or other, hnvo seemed wnry of such Roods, nnd the cities nnd towns hnv lacked proper facilities for handling them. It y sell Inp; direct to consumers, the market Is vastly brondened. Tho list of goods for snle, which shows considerable vnrlcty nnd covont some .tni),OIIO,OI)0 pounds of fond, is to be distributed by fit, (HOT postoffices. Tho orders nro to bo (riven nnd the, money pnid through postmasters and carriers, thus insuring tho widest ex tension of the opportunity. There will be no profit except that which falls to the purrhnsor. Not the least excellent phase of the plan Is tho liberal uso it will make of tho parcel post. This branch of the posUil service has not been accom plishing anywhere near what used to be expected of it. The distribution of so grcnt a qunntity of foodstufff through this medium should serve to nrouso tho general public to the op portunities It has been Ignoring. If city folk enn obtain food from the gov ernment by parcel post, they can ob tain it from the farms by the same process. Let them offer tho market, nnd tho producers will supply it. ill publierroiii excited jic-ilinp speeh .
