to failure to neipmint theuwclw

toon eniloads of apple struck New

market wns so glutted that apples

about 17 cents per bushel. At thi
time the consumer wu paying f 1.110
to $'J per bushel forbad apple, while
tho producer was receiving from
1 1 to I" cent per bushel for good ap
ples. "The differential i enormous lint
it represents wnte rather than
profit. The fault i due mostly to a
laok of co-iirdiiiiitiiui in our cootioiiiic
system, and scarcely nt all to the dis
honesty of individuals. The solution
can ho ai'hicvcd neither by prosecu

of the market, but tho law eau ef
