The United State Department of agriculture reported in 1916 that the farmer gets for his cattle "approxi mately two-third to three-fourths" of the final retail price paid by the con sumer for the resulting beef. Under normal conditions, the farmer's chare of retail prices of various farm products is approximately as follows: Butter 71 per cent CATTLE 6623 to 75 per cent Eggs 65 per cent Potatoes 55 per cent Poultry 45 per cent Fruits 35 per cent The difference between farmer's price and retail price represents the necessary expenses of packing, freight and whole sale and retail distribution. Swift & Company not only performs the manufacturing operations of pre paring cattle for market in its well equipped packing plants, but it pays the freight on meat to all parts of the United States, operates 500 branch distributing houses, and in most case3 even delivers to the retail butcher. All this is done at an expense of less than 2 rents per pound, and at a profit of only about of a cent per pound of beef. Large volume of business and expert management, make possible this indis pensable service to the live-stock raiser and to the consumer, and make possible the larger proportion of retail prices received by farmers.

Common Sense Gasoline Saving The gasoline question is not so much one of high price as it is how to make it go farther. In the Franklin Car, light weight gives the gasoline less work to do, and hence less gaso line is needed. Friction, that drags on a car, is cut down to the limit. Valves in the head make the Franklin engine turn more of the gasoline into actual going power.
