GOOD GARDEN SEED FAVORED

Good garden seed Is nn essential In
successful gardening. If wc nro going

plant seed thnt won't germinate, nnd
It Is almost as bad to find that tho
seed which hns been planted Is untrue

In order to nvold all annoyance It Is
best to secure good seed. When buying
garden seed demnnd thnt It bo fresh;
likewise Instst thnt It bo true to nnme.
Tho cnslest wny of avoiding poor seed
Is to purclinso the product of sorao ro

The Farmer's
Share
Live stock is marketed from
farmer to consumer at a lower
cost than almost any other farm
product.
The United States Department of
agriculture reported in 1916 that the
farmer gets for his cattle "approxi
mately two-thirds to three-fourths" of
the final retail price paid by the con
sumer for the resulting beef.
Under normal conditions, the farmer's
share of retail prices of various farm
products is approximately as follows: '
Butter 71 per cent
CATTLE 662 to 75 per cent
Potatoes 55 per cent
Poultry
rruits
45 per cent
art
ob 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 cases
even delivers to the retail butcher. All
this is done at an expense of less than 2
cents per pound, and at a profit of only
about Y4 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.
