I There ore 3.1 per cent for the grower, s j per rent for the carrier and .17 ts-r cent for the dealer. This Is not a l fair dlvlslou. ! Thirty cents a dozen waa the aver i age price of eggs In New York last j year, while the fnrmen of .Arkansas ' and Missouri received 15 cents. The freight was 2 rents a doren. The man who receives the eggs at a freight sta tion In New York and delivers them ' to the consumer takes 13 cents a dozen i profit. . The rice farmer of Texas. Louisiana and Arkansas gets S1 cents a pound for the grain, and the consumer tn New York pays 10 cents a imund for this rice. The freight Is half a cent a pound. If the rice farmer were paid 3H- rents (a cent more than he Is now gettlngi and the denier took a cent profit (which Is 2.T (r centi the New York consumer would get twenty pounds of rice for a dollar instead of ten pounds, us now. If the above tljnires are correct, and we have no reason to doubt them. It would seem that the middleman Is much to blame for the present high prices. And It would Indicate that If the farmer and consumer can eliminate the middleman to a great extent the better It will be for them. Grangers and Dairymen.
