Not to be out doiu shippers, brokers and commission merchants contem Jilnle establishing a "moral credit bin can" to discipline all who indulge in unethical practices. It is pointed out that only f'ethical business is successful in the long run." In other Voids, the Golden Kule is found to apply .quite as well to the fruit and vegetable business as to other phases of life. I'utting ethics into daily business dealings is fine. I'.ut the moral credit bureau, as planned, has its weak points. The idea, apparently, is to have the bureau obtain from tlie trade a lot of information about individuals whose business dealings are unethical. This information would be used to warn oth-j eis against, tieanng wun uie unethical persons. If tho j emimiisis is pmcea on mmcst and generous business methods, very well. lint if it is placed on passing around unpleasant information and instigating boycotts, the plan itself begins to take on a dubious ethical tinge. .Motor tourists bought II. lull Jars of home hade apple Jelly from one itreln.rd near llowdoliiham, -Me., last summer. erage of :l per lug for blnitn. which was considered a Jilr m le('. ..... ....... ,.,,, ,, Hiuicqt Aiinougn there v.as -u 10 be on tlie lookout for 'Vheny heavy pluming- of fall ; wheut maggot" which has rlilllo.l some thel-n has linen vii-l.,,,11..
